I do not know what it is. but it Is unbecoming and unseeming. We are not complaining now of the American consuls. We have a splendid set of men. but they can not possibly attend to all of these details connected with the work of immigration. But we do say that the clerks. the persons coming in contact with these people. should be American citizens who know the language. who are responsible. who. if they take any remuneration or tips from an alien. we can haul back here and punish. You can not do that with this cheap labor that you have. paying theny $970 a year and letting them pass upon questions of human rights.
