IMMIGRATION IS INCREASING

Lut Tear Than One Before,
ITALY SENDS THE GREATEST NUMBER
Total Arrivals of All Classes Were
1,318, Who Breegfct to This

WASHINGTON. Oct. 23. The annual re
port of Frank P. Sargent .of the Bureau of
Immigration shows a large Increase In Im
migration over that of the preceding year,
the aggregate of the fiscal year being 875.
04, an exoess over that of last year of 208,
S00. or $3 per cent. The-statistics show an
increase In immigration from all foreign
sources, suggesting as the' chief cause of
the tnfluex of aliens Into, the United States
during the year the Inducements offered to
settlers rather than special causes of dis
content In their own country.
Of the total steerage Immigration, there
came from Europe 814,607, from Asia 29.660
and from all- other sources 12,673. If to
these figures are added those representing
the total arrivals of alien cabin passengers,
64,269, the result will show that the 'total
immigration of aliens to the United States
during the year aggregate 821,315, or 106,043
more than the greatest number heretofore
reported for any one year.
The greatest number of immigrants, 230,
622, came from Italy, an increase of 62,634
over last year, while Austria-Hungary fur
nished 20G.011, an increase of 34,022; Russia
13,093, an Increase of 28,746; Germany 40,086,
an Increase of 11,782; Sweden 40,028, an In-1
crease of 16,134; Ireland 35,310, an increase of
8.172, and England 28,219, an increase of 12,-.
644. 1
Of the oriental countries Japan was fore
most with 19,968, an Increase of 6,698, while
China contributed 2,296, an Increase of 600
over last year. Of the total number of
steerage passengers 13,146 -were males and
243,409 were females, of' whom 102,431 were
less than 14 years of age. .There were of
these $.341 who could read but could not
write, and JS5.C67 who could neither read
nor write, leaving a balance able both to
read and write of 668,039. The total amount
of money brought by tham Into the United
States was $16,117,613.

Thoesands Dialed Admlttaace.
Exclusive of those denied admission at
the land boundaries of the United States
l,76 were rejected for various causes, 8,812
being paupers, 1,773. afflicted with disease
and 1,086 contract laborers.
Concerning these figures Commissioner
Sargent says: ' 1
The most noteworthy features In this
statement are those in relation to the re
jections of alien contract laborers and per
sons sunenng witn aangerous contagious
diseases. With respect to the former It
may lalrly be assumed thRt the vigilance
of the officers charged with the enforce
ment of the law has resulted in the detec
tion and exclusion of the large number
given, which Is In excess of the number
excluded sny previous fiscal year since the
establishment of the bureau. As regards
the retertion of diseased aliens. I must re
iterate the statement made in the last an
nual report, that It exhibits upon the part
of some of the transportation lines such a
wanton disregard or the laws or the coun
try as fully vindicates the wisdom of con-i
press In authorizing by- the act approved
March 3, 1903. the imposition of a penalty
for bringing diseased aliens to this country
In tho cases,, was perceptible at the time.
Desires Medical Exsmlaatloa.
Commissioner Sargent strongly recom
mends that an examination by competent
medical authorities skilled physicians, rep
resenting this government should te de
tailed for this service.
The commissioner refers to the grave
danger to our cities from polonies of foreign
born people. Such colonies, he says, are k
menace to the physical, social, moral and
political security 'of the country. . Removed
from the sweatshops and slums of the groat
cities and given the opportunity to ac
quire a home, every alien, however rad.cal
his theories of government and individual
right may have been, will become a con
servative, a supporter in theory -and prac
tice of those Institutions under whose pro
tection he has acquired and can defend his
household gods.
Bultable legislation is therefore strongly
urged to establish agencies by means of
which, either whh or without the co-operation
of the states, aliens shall be made
acquainted with tha resources of the coun
try at large, the industrial needs of tho
skilled labor, cost of living, the wages
paid, the price and capabl It es of the lands,
the character of the climates, tha dura ton.
of ths seasons In short all of that infor
mation furnished by some of the great
railway- lines, through whose efforts the
territory tributary thereto has been trans
ferred from a wilderness within a few years
to the abiding place of- a happy and pros
perous population.
CommifcAloner Sargent, in view. of. the
arrival of approximately 1,000,000 Immi
grants annually, urges that legislation bd
enacted to Improve the quality, morally and
intellectually, of those admitted. -
The report indicates a marked improve
ment in the enforcement of the complex
and strongly' resisted Chinese exclusion
laws. ' Experience ban proved a good
teacher in the administration of these
laws and their enforcement is accomplished
now with a minimum of friction. The
commissioner expresses confidence that the
efforts -of the bureau to enforce these laws
will prove much more successful than they
have proved at any time heretofore.

EXETER OUT T0HEAR BURKETT
(fa a of Larsrest Crowds Kver Assem
bled la tho City Preaeat at
tho Meetlag.
EXETER. Neb.. Oct. 23.-(Special Tele
gram.) One of tha largest crowds ever
gathered in Exeter to hoar a political
speech assembled to Congressman Bnrkeit
of the First congressional district tonight
Mr. Burkett Is not a stranger in tnti
county, having spoken at different places
in the countr before. A large number came
over from the , adjoining towns and ths
meeting was In' the nature of a county
rally. Mr. Burkett's address was con
sidered by many as ths best political
speech ever made here. A large "number
of fusion voters were in the hall. Most
of the candidates on ths county ticket
were present and were presented to the
sudlenoe. Hon. L. G. Hurd of Harvard,
candidate for district Judge and Captain
Henry of Geneva, candidate for clerk of
the district court,' made brief addresses.
Mr. Burkett began his address with a
tribute to the candidates upon the republi
can ticket. He pronounced every one of
them worthy of the votes of eveTy citlsen
of the state. As to Judge Barnes he said
that the fact. that he had lived for a quar
ter of a century In the state and had
taken an active 'part In-the affairs of the
stats and yet not a word could be raised
against his character and ability, was per
haps testimonial enough of his standing.
But .Judge Barnes has had an unusual
test. For two years he has been practi
cally conceded the nomination and for two
years we may say he has been before the
people as a candidate. He has occupied
a position on the supreme bench and every
lawyer and every litigant and 'citizen has
ever held him In the highest esteem, per
sonally and officially. He Is a good lawyer,
good Judge and a good man.
Mr. Burkett then urged the necessity for
good men as' regents of the State univer
sity and congratulated the people upon
having two 'as good men presented for
their suffrages, aa Mr. Whltmore and Mr.
Allen were.
Mr'.. Burkett' then .'made a genuine re
publican speech along national lines In
the main, although dlsgresslng at times
Into state affairs for a good illustration
of the success of republican administra
tion of affairs.

To Shake Off Coffee aad Slekneaa.
It is easy to shake off coffee no matter
how bad one may crave It, when well made
Postum Coffee is served in Its place. '
"1 1 have drank coffee for years and al
ways experienced' trouble from It," says a
Kansan. "I knew It was causing my sick
ness, es my doctor told me It was, and fol
lowing the doctor's advice I have repeat
edly sworn offt "But sfter a short time I
could not stand It any longer and would go
bacij to coffee and the old troubles. Never
untiT I tried Postum about a year ago could
I shut off the coffee for any length of time.
"At that time I was suffering terribly
from stomaeh trouble, nervousness, head
aches and all the other Ills that go with
a badly upset coffee stomach,. I am a
school teacher, and If I made my coffee
strong enough to stimulate my stomach I
could work fine for a time, but would col
lapse at night. Gradually I failed to get
stimulation from the coffee and my brain
seemed actually clogged up from drinking
coffee and my stomach was In a wretched
state.
'A friend came to see me and advised
that I try Postum and then went out and
got me a package, she was so certain it
would help me. But my landlady did not
make It right and I was so disappointed
with the taste that I went back to coffee.
My health finally got so bad I was on the
point of giving up school work. Then my
friend returned to see me one day and
asked about the Postum. and when she
found out what the trouble was she made
It for me according to directions, boiling It
full 15 minutes, and to my surprise I found
it delicious-),
"Then I shut off ths - coffee and found
It easy to do by drinking Postum In its
place, which completely satisfied any coffee
taste, and I began to feel better almost
Immediately." I -rove used Postum ever
since snd my f
minute's troub'
my nerves are
feel so flue I car.i
has not given me a
now strong sgaln,
and normal and I
Login to tell you how
thankful I am.
"I persuaded my brother who was an In
veterate coffee drinker for years to give up
the coffee and try Postum, and he has had
such grand results from this that he says
hs will never go back to coffee. When I
went borne 00 s, visit to my parents I per
suaded them tq use Postum. In tha place
of coffee and aha results have been that

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Oct 23.T(Bpeclal Telegram.)
Booth's cornhuskers and the Colorado uni
versity eleven will be opponents on the
gridiron tomorrow. It will be the .moun
taineer' , first appearance on a NebraMka
gridiron. Colorado was defeated a week
to by a close score by Kansas university
and tomorrow's struggle should furnish a
line on the probable result of the clash
between the Jayhawkers and the Corn
huskers, who are now the chief contestant
for- premier honors In the Missouri valley.
The Colorado- team arrived In Lincoln this
afternoon. Coach Cropp Immediately loaded
his men Into a carriage and drove lo the
outskirts of town, where they were put
through a half hour's signal practice.
According to Cropp's statement, Colorado
will average only ltil pounds, a difference
In Nebranka's favor of seven pounds to the
man. Cropp states, however, that his men
are In fair trim and will put up a game
resistance, although he admits that the
odds will ne in Nebraska's favor. Booth's
pupils deserted the university campus and
were taken to the state farm, four mllM
from town, where a hard signal practice
waa Inaugurated, lasting an hour. - Booth
expresses confidence in the outcome, and
expects the Cornhuskers to win by a de
cisive score, meanwhile shutting out Colo-
rado, barring accidents or 111 luck.
