Mrs. Powell was permitted to

pauper labor of Europe. The prei-s
of the country is awakening, and
the people can xa teach their
servants who are their master.

front until the pressure of public
opinion shall become wholly irre
sistible. .

Some of the poorest people in this

We ar fast approaching a crisi3
in the affairs of this country, and
Americans must no longer hesitate.
By Americans, we mean both na
tive and naturalized citizens in the
broadest sense. . They. should now
organize, and irrespective of party,
color, religion or former nationality,
demand that .their representatives
in congress pas?, and the executive-
departments enforce" such laws as
will etop further immigration to
this countiy of outcasts from the
slums and prisons of Europe. No
persons should be allowed to land
or settle here, hereafter, who can
not provel good character before
sailing, aYid if that Violates any
treaties, steps should be taken at
once td change them.' Thousands
of foreigners have landed on our
shored who are utterly unfit for
citizenship, and a halt should be
called, and that promptly. Our
cour.ts should strictly enforce the
present naturalization - laws, and
our legislative assemblies make a
longer residence and reasonable
education and proof of good charac
ter obligatory before citizenship.
Every native born American
voter, white or colored, is com
pelled to wait twenty-one years be
fore he can vote, while 'an ignorant
foreigner can become a' citizen be-
-fore he can read or-write or have
the slightest knowledge of bur in
stitutions They have been wel
comed and allowed to partake of
the inheritance our lorefathers wori
and their, descendants cultivated
and nurtured for over two centuries,
and Americans -have not com
plained, but circumstances have
now changed. Is it too much,
then, to auk that from this time for
ward all who are citizens,, irre
spective of race, condition, color, or
religion, shall unite iu determining
that henceforth none-shall .be al
lowed te join in -our priceless in
heritance, unless after prolonged
probation and they have been found
worthy? There has been too much
pandering to the foreign element
for" the sake of . their votes. Let
Americans exert . themselves and
determine that hereafter our coun
try shall be ruled, and influenced
only by Americans, native and
naturalized, and that henceforth
