For the month of November 1904 there arrived in the U 8 71150 immigrations of whom 46,742 were males aid 24,408 females. For the eleven months ending with November 1904 there were 745,287 immigrants reached the United States of whom 476,100 were males and 250,187 females. For the cor responding period in 1904 the arrivals of homeseekers were 688,100 males and 201,932 fe males total 395,148. The first official couut of im migrants we have is for the year ending June 80, 1820 in whioh 8,385 arrived . Forty years after in 1860 there came to the U S 310,004, followed by a falling off and there were but 150,237 re ported in 1860, since which the tide has grown to present proportions of 2,871 per day. In times past much easiness has been felt among the native population, lest the great inflow of foreigners would prove detri mental, if not disastrous to the ffoneral wealth. Some theorists startled the people with their prognostications "of evil to fol low from making the U 8, U termed it. " The dumping ground for the offscouring of the earth." Demigogues pic tured here in a few years Amer ica would cease to be American "When "flannel mouthed Irish, Logger Beer Dutch, Frog eating French, Beef eating John Bulls and Fiddling Italians" would rule the land. But the oommon sense of the American people prevented them from being sacred to the adoption of an Or iental policy of seclusion. Oar ports were left open, millions upon millions of industrious liberty loving, law abiding, in dustrious men and women have cume to the United States, and the nation hs prospered as no other nation on earth, loyalty to our flag and confidence in American institutions is deeper more universal and fervid today than at any Other time in our national history. when he states that such an ex-' hibit will require financial aid. His proposition for the citisens to make a showing, and then ask the county to appropriate a sum sufficient, when added to the fund donated by the citizens at large, to insure a creditable ex hibit is a good one. This mat ter is important aud should re ceive the attention of every citi zen in the county. As Mr Rine hart suggests, we believe the La Qrande Commercial Club is the proper organisation to take this matter up and properly bring it before the people of the county Union county can not afford to allow this opportunity pass un accepted.

Now the ques tion is are we as an individual county contented to let it go as a total loss, or are we to make an effort to realize upon tbe money so invested. How we can do this without an exhibit euoh as Union county is capable of making, we do not believe it possible.
