To begin with, there are 11,000,000 coloreq people, including negroes. ' In addition to these, there are 14,000,000 children of foreign-born fathers and mothers and 6,500,000 children of of foreign-born fathers and native mothers, of vice versa. When all of these have heen deducted from the 100,000,000, only 54,000,000 remain of full whité native ancestry. “Yet the 35,000,000 American people who are of foreign-born stock—that is foreign-born or the children of a foreign-born parent—includes :some ‘of the most illustrious citizens of our Republic. Even the president of the United States himself has only one ancestor who was born in Ameriea, and the list is long and notable of statesmen, captains of industry, lead- ers of finance, inventors, makers of literature and progress, - who have strains of blood not more than one generation on this side of the sea. “An examination of the statistics o} American immigration. shows that since the foundation of our governs ment -the United Kingdom: of Great Britain mand Ireland have contributed 8,400,000 of her people and Germany more than six million. Ireland with more than four million; Great Britain, with a little less than four million, and Scandinavia, with something less than two million, have together with Germany, confributed more than half of the total immigration to our shores since the beginning of the Revolu- tionary war. “When we take the Gérman immi- = 1776 and 1890 and compare it with A large number of local residents - attended the Davis theatre Thursday evening.

The total ar- rivals of aliens in those 114 years ag- gregated 15,689,000, of whom more than 6,000,000 were British and Irish and 5,125000 were Germons which shows that one alien out of every three arriving in America during more than a century of our existence was a German. Since 1890 the trenq has been yory different. With more than 17,000,000 immigrant arrivals since that dale, only 1,023,000 have been Germans.
