THE DIFFICULTY with immigration restriction at the port of
Xew York lies in tile faet no liuieliinc has been invented to de
termine what is in nn iiiimiifrnnt's heart and head. Poverty is no cri
terion. Thousands of penniless immigrants have come to this country
and developed a citizenship of the highest type. On the other hand
i.iai.y immigrants have possessed the necessary cash, but with ideas
stored away in their eraiiiiims, which have been destructive of every
ideal for which America stands.
t'niil some method of determining the essential nature of the new
i:rrivai has been found, any system of immigration restriction, is po
tential, of almost lis much li.-um as good. For I'nele Sam needs more
raw material for citizenship. America is the world's melting pot, and
its growth and greatness has 'depended very largely upon its capacity
lo transmute the raw material from foreign lands, into the highly
tempered si eel of an industrious and patriotic citizenship. The only
difficulty has been, 'and is today,' the inability to determine when
the raw material has ihe capacity of genuine Americanization, and
when it has not. ,
Along this line we notice a communication in Harvey's "Weekly
from I'eter MacQueen of Boston, described by Colonel Harvey as "a
distinguished lecturer ami author, and one of the ornaments of
Who's Vho.-"; In describing his arrival in this country in 1881, Mr.
Mactuecn writes:
Now, I was poor, hut Intelligent enough' to know, at the age of
17, that America was a better country than Scotland or any other
laud for a boy who wanted to work hard and make good; and -ex
pected to get only what he was worth.
I came to America wtlh these Ideas: 1) To be an American
and live In a republic; ) To get a better education than I could
obtain in Scotland. (3) To render to America a life-time of loy
ulty and gratitude; and never to expect America to do anything for
my native country. .My idea was to have no divided allegiance. Aly
adopted mother was to be a step-mother, I was not a fieouiah
Americali; 1 was only an American, my best nmbilion til lie "first
. ut my countyr's feet mid last in her service." 1
To this kind of immigrant I have found no scintilla of opposi
tion in forty years: 1 have found the ITnlted States better than the
America of my boyish dreams. It has been better to mo than Viy,
mother's land. Of my native land I think justly with pride nnd
nilmiifoioii, with a feeling of sadness that she could not do for me .
what Anicvba very whole-heartedly has done. After twenty years
In America I went bin k to Scotland, dug up Ihe old family hearth
stone among the heather bills and put it down in my home in New
England. Hut I would have come to'America to live even If 1 had
been compelled to wait ten years. People of foreign birth III tills
great country should not expect from 11 any more than they are get
ting. They are usually getting many" times more than they could '
ever have had In the lands' that they left. . " .. '
If America interfered to help every country from w-hich she has
drawn her vlrilu blood, she would have to have uu army, navy, and !
treasury in every country of Kuropc; ' it is a Veductlo ad absurdum
and a dangerous hysteria to allow and encourage race groups in this
country to be constantly pressing on the government at Washlng
ton Ihe lights and wrongs of their people on the other side of the
sea. From Cape Clear to the Volga. Europe Is a sea. of trouble and .
, we have not oil wherewith lo calm the waves. You, Mr. Editor, are
' capable of putting these ideas into word. that flame and burn. I
should like to see you do It. l'KTKK MacQL'EKN. '
Uoston, Mass.
Ill framing new immigration laws, the nearer congress can come
to legislation that will restrict undesirables and still allow entrance
into this country of as many, poor I'eter MacQueens, as possible, the
peaier tl.ey will ecme to a proper solution of the modern immigra
tion prtbiein.

THE TRAMPS.
I SPEND my quiet ilays and hours where winter does nit wint
'.ing, where in December gorgeous flowers the countryside are
tinting. Here come the lads who have the price, to dodge- the
, beastly weather of countries stocked with sleet and ice, and snow
drifts, stuck together. Here also come the unwnshed tramps; all
day I sec them drilling; and lots of them are wicked scamps who'd
knife you for a shilling. They're passed along from town to town
by wise and thoughtful coppers, who do not wish to curry down
so many thieves and paupers. They're driven forth from Punk
town's gates by stern official orders; that village wants no frowsy
skates within its moral borders. They're chivied out of Mndville
streets, the rural cops prevailing; tluit hamlet wants no bums and
heals its atmosphere inhaling. This is the system that's in force
wherever tramps may wander; and selfish seems such work and
coarse to shoo them there and yonder. And so the hoboes ply
their lioots, down all the roads they trickle; and somo of them
are calloused brutes who'd shoot you for it nickel. A trail of
crime they're laying down, a record that's a beauty; and when
we've shooed them from our town we think we've done our duty.

"Hudson Huv is ono of the most
characteristic features on the map of
North America, standing out as strik-
innlv as the Gulf of Mexico and cover
iiisr almost as eroat an area. Though
It falls far, short of furnishing a pas
sage to the 'South Sea' as the early
explorers hoped. Its westernmost coast
is on the very center-line of the conti
nent. Much of. the. surrounding terri
tory of- tne hay Is unexplored wilder
ness. This is especially true or tne
eastern coast toward Labrador.
May Become American Baltic '
"On the west coast are Port Church
ill. Hie hay s beat port., and about a
hundred miles lo the south. Port Nel
son. Both these ports are to be con
nected by rullroads with Winnipeg and
the wheat and cattle country to the
west. Sailing vessels ply Hudson Hay
between July 14 and October 3, nnd
steamers for a slightly longer period.
When the 'railroads Increase the Im
portance of the Hudson Bay ports it is
believed that ice-crushing ships will
make possible the shipping of cargoes
between June 15 and November 1. By
the Hudson Itay route Edmonton, Al
berta, is 1000 nillos nearer Liverpool
than by the Montreal route.
"Moose Factory at Hie southernmost
reaches of Hudson nay, though isolat
ed from the settled part of Canada by
forests and swamps in summer, and
frozen wastes in winter, is only about
as far from New York as Chicago. The
distance from Ottawa to Moose Fac
tory is about equal to that from New
York to Pittsburgh."
