What they desire is the right to go to Europe and to bring over skilled farmers and skilled laborers to whom they can sell from 5 to 10 or 15 or 25 or 50 acres of those farms and put them on them. We have done that to some extent in my State. Mr. McRae. about whom I spoke yesterday. has established a number of colonies. and he has brought over immigrants from Holland and that section of Europe. placed them upon those farms. and sold them the farms. They brought skilled labor. experienced labor. along with them. The laborer soon bought himself a little farm. and they have all become farmers.
