THE INVASION OF IMMIGRANTS. The following extracts from a latter ef tbe Secretary of the Immigration Restriction League ef Boston, Mass., •hows the class and quantity of ’iqiml- grants that the North wants to get rid of by dumping them in the i\outh. Commissioner Watson, to whor^i tbe letter was addressed, ‘‘has no fears,’’ qs the laws agsinst tbe Incoming of undesirable immigrants are sufficiently strict. Hut how about their enforcement? t)nly a few months ago a Scotchman passed the lines successfully, and after bit location at or near Coluniblq^it was found that he had some incurable pul monary trouble, and he was sent back North, and we suppose to Scotland. But tbe quotations below speak for hpreniselvea. They nerd no comment of ours to add to their force: "Indications are that immigration for the fiscal year of 1906 ending June •3i)ih, will be about one million, or con- silderably more than one per .cent of the aotal population of the United States.
