As Edward L. Burnett writes in the American I.ogion Weekly, "the vague caption of ignorant foreigner' is false and unjust." Just because a newcomer cannot speak the English language when he arrives In this country is no reason why he should be labelled the "ignorant foreigner." The young peo ple of America do not study foreign languages in a way that would qualify them lo speak any language so as le be undei steed in the country where it is spoken. Why should a country of Europe call one of these Americans an Ignorant forstgnerf Just because he was unable on landing to speak the. language of the country? Birth is an accident to the one most concerned, and if that individual is not satisfied with his environment why should he be com pelled to stay put and be dcnlt d the light of advancement? The constitution of tills groat country gives the newcomer to its shores tn right to become a citizen after a resi d< nee of live years, provided the ap plicant for such citizenship has com plied with tiie laws of the country and can furnish two witnesses who will vouch for his character and desirabili ty as a citizen. The Immigration laws should be strict in the matter of pre venting culls from other nations seek ing refuge in this country, but to the sound workers of other nations who seek a home in the United States a welcome should be extended. The great trouble with tiie United States is tl.at the welcome has been extended and great hope* of a free future held out. hut there the welcome ceases. The government proper does its part, but the community fails utterly. The government declares an Immi grant may become a citizen In five years, with all the rights and pri vileges, but tiie community demands a time extending over tiie second and third generations and a certain financial standing before It will recognize such citizenship. Something Is wrong, t ither the regulations of the govern ment must be amended to require a longer period of residence or the com munity must recognize its duty to the newcomer and assist in the grtat work of assimilation. It is true that the government provides night schools and other facilities for the foreigner, hut what is the use of learning the Knglish language if ihe comunity will not speak to the new citizen. He learns the language and then learns that he ts called something in a foreign lan guage which means, when translated, •'dog." What rhance has ho to as similate. Yet he and his wife and his children w ill soon have a voice in the government. The forefathers of the American people came to America to escape persecution and the great curse of birth class, yet this country is only 1(5 years old and class stands out stronger than It does in countries centuries old. Thn American of today who has reached the age of maturity, although his grandfather came to this country unable to speak the Knglish language, and made good, puts himself in a class wrMch calles the children of immigrants "bohunks." Where is the freedom or tiie class abolition? The pi meer Industries of America have been built by these same new comers. The Union Uacillc Itailroad. which connected this great continent, was built by the sweat and blood of Just such men at are today commonly called Ignorant foreigners. Kvery great Industry has been Inaugurated by the men who came here to labor and learn the way* and language of the country. There 1* no excuse for the foreign colonies which exist in America today. The blame is entirely with the community and the sooner the community realises its duty and takes up the assimilation of the newcomer from overseas as an exact science the better for the country. It is nonseneo to say tl>e foreigner Is not worthy, the man who will fight to maintain your home Is worthy of a welcome to that hom“. It is often said that the customs of a foreigner cannot be rhanged. A close inspection of some of the customs would be of great advant age to native-born Americans. Let the. nattvo American study the frugal life of the so-called foreigner; hi* care to live within his earning capacity; hi* desire for a big. healthy family; his selection of nourishing food and his desire to become indept ndent of daily to'l. Human welcome is nil the new citi zen needs. If his neighbor* give that welcome and show him how he can best fit into the new life he will un doubtedly become a grateful citizen. If his neighbors are not receptive or active in their help he may become n good citizen in spite of them, but the chances are not great. Bitte rness, dis content, luck of success. mi*und<r standing and misuse may assail him and make him an easy victim of the forces that ate ever ready to destroy government Thl* country like all other* in his tory, will some day face the gi«-at struggle'. The love for mother country Is deep in every heart, unless there Is one “with s>ul so dead, that never to himself has said, this is my own. my native land.” but It would take a dead er soul to violate the home that lues extended the welcome of hospitality. When fear stalked naked on this land the country called on all alike, let the community be as broad in Its gratitude' as In Its fear, and not forget that the dwellers may at any time become the defenders.

Mine Assessment Work Required This Year A report has been circulated, either ignorantly or designedly, to the effect that no assessment work is likely to bo required on unpatented mining claim* this year, and that In any event the matter may not bo decided until December. For the information of those Interested it is well to *ay that the matter has already been decided. Congress decided it before adjourn ment and decided that no further ex emptions would he authorized by law. Therefore there is nobody who has any authority to grant exemptions, if he desired mo to do.
