PREACHING TO THE I 0L1T
"Don't be afraid ol giv'V;
If your bfa ain't worth nothia' to other
tO'HS,
Why. what's the use of nviri'!"
And that's what 1 say to my wife; says I.
There s Brown, the miser ble sinner.
He'd sooner a beggar would starve, than
give .
A cent toward buyin' a dinmr."
I tell you our minister's prime, he is;
' But I couldn't quite determine.
When I heard him givin' itng'it and left,
Just who was hit by his sermon.
Of course, there couldn't be n mistake
When he talked of lone-winded prayin ,
For Peters and Johnson they S3t and
scowled
At every word he was sayin.
And the minister then went on to say:
There s various kinds of ca latin .
And religion's as good for evey day
As it is to bnnff to meetm -
I don't think much of that ma I that gives
The loud amens at my preaJiin ,
And spends his time the followin' week
In cheatin and overreachin . i -
I guess that dose was bitter enough
For a man like Jones to swaller.
For I noticed he didn't open b i mouth.-
Not once, after that, to holl.r;
'Hurrah," says I, "for the mir. stor" '
Of course I said it quiet
"Give us some more of this opm talk;
Its very refreshin diet.
The minister hit 'em every tine;
And when he spoke of fashun.
And riggin' out in bows and Ui rigs.
As woman s ruim passion.
And comin' to church to see th styles.
I couldn t helD a-winkm
And a-nudgin my wife; and scrs I:
- "That s you.
And I guess it sot her to thhkin.'
immigrants for that year composed 1.27
per cent.
In the immigration of 1905 there were
745.520 males and 310.514 females
making 2.4 times more men than women.
In the immigrant. that came to the
United Stetes in 1903 there were 114 -668
under, 14 years of age. 856.419
from' 1 4 to 45 years old. the balance
were over 45 years old. ' .
Austria Hunsiria sent us in 1905
284.967. followed by Italy With 168.441
The neat in number were Russians to
the number of 177.860. The total from
Europe was 987.228. Asia sent us that
year 21.699 of which 1.716 came from
China and 9,603 from Japan.
The total immigration for that year
would settle two and one half stales the
size of Oregon as dense v as it was
peopled in 1900.
If we can absorb such an annual flood
of people without economic disturbance it
will be a marvel, but we have witnessed
wonders in the past . In the eleven years.
1894 to and including 1905. the immigra
tion'to the United States was six million
the absorption of which has created no
great disturbance. The problem as now
presented arises from the rapid increase
of immigration.' In 1890 the arrivals

year in the history of the United States.
The course of the University of Cali
fornia in dropping from its rolls 200
students who had failed to show at
examination that they had either ambition
or capacity, should be adopted by other
colleges. It is a notice to dullards and
idlers to betake themselves elsewhere. - It
asserted that the tuition fees of no
American university are large enough to
bear the cost of instruction. Every
college student, therefore, however rich.
is largely a recipient of charity. Hence
no student has a right to use the college
community as a loafing place, occupying
the time of the instructors and distracting
the attention of the students. Too many
attend college for a good time to
exercise at all the college games and
amusements, to the eclipse of the princi
pal object.
Says I to myself:
tlii
That sermon's pat
lit man is a aueer creation.
And I'm much afraid that mj it of th e
folks
Won't take the application.
Now, if he had said a word ab ut
Mr personal mode of sinnin .
I'd have gone to work to right nyself.
And oot set there a gnnmn .
just then the minister says, says he: '
And now Iv e come to the fellers
Who've lost this shower by u ,i' their'
friend
As a sort of moral umbrellas.
Qo home, "says he. "and find your faults,
Instead of huntin your brot -.irs ;
Go home." says he. "and wear the coats
You've tried to fit for others."
My wife sh nudged, and Brown he '
winked.
And there was tots o' smilin",
And lota e' lookin' at our pew;
It sot my blood a-bilin.
Says 1 to myself: "Our minister

IMMIGRATION
There is a bill now being considered m
Congress to change our Immigration laws
and require each new comer to be able
to read and write some language, and to
speak the English language before being
naturalized.
The large influx of people from abroad
causes much thought and apprehension.
In 1904 58.90 per cent of oar increase
m population for that year was from
immigrants. In every 100 increas to
our population 68.90 wr immigrants
and 41.10 were from births.
in ieu mere were soo.sui immi
grants to the United States of these
4.448 wetT from Asa. 1.541 from
Pacific islands.
In the year 1905 the United States
Department of Commerce and Finance
reported the arrivals ia the United States
at 1.0&S.499 not including citizen
Canada, and Newfoundland corning direct
from Biit;h North America and citizens
of Mexico coming direct from Mexico.
The same authority gives the total popu

of 1905 at 85.143.000 of which the
