I desire to call the gentlemans attention to. this. fact: It Is important not only upon the farm but upon the railway and in the mine that we should keep the labor that is willing to work in the mine and on the railroad and on the farm. Great quantities. of laborers from the. South. colored people. are I coming North to work in the mines and on the railways because immigration from abroad has been cut off. The farmer boy will not tamp the ties. nor will the city boy. They will not work in the mines to get the coal that is to be luined.
