This table illustrates forcibly the fact that from the point of view of
the need of new settlers immigration at the present time is a vastly
different matter from what it has ever been before in the history of
our country. This impression is strengthened if we make another
comparison, which is even more significant for our purposes, viz. the
relation of immigration to the public domain, that is, to the land
which still remains unclaimed and open to settlement. If there were
still large tracts of good land lying unutilized, and available for
settlement, as there have been in other periods of our history, we
could take comfort in the thought that as soon as the incoming aliens
caused too great a congestion in any region, the surplus inhabitants
would overflow, by a natural process, into the less thickly settled
districts. Let us consider what the facts have to show in this respect.
In 1860 there were, as nearly as can be estimated, 939,173,057
acres of land lying unappropriated and unreserved in the public
domain. In 1906 there were 424,202,732 acres of such land,
representing the leavings, after all the best land had been chosen. In
other words, for each immigrant entering the country during the
decade ending 1860 there were 374 acres in the public domain, at
least half of it extremely valuable farm land. In 1906, for each
immigrant entering during the previous ten years, there were 68.9
acres, almost wholly arid and worthless.
The fact that the immigrants in this country do not, to any great
extent, take up this unclaimed public land does not destroy the
significance of this comparison. As long as there was a strong
movement of the native population westward, it was not so much a
matter of concern, if large numbers of foreigners were entering the
Atlantic seaboard. And this was exactly the case during the middle of
the nineteenth century. This was the period of the great internal
migration to the new lands of the Middle West. In point of fact also,
at this time, many of these pioneers were actually immigrants. It is
scarcely necessary to say that nothing comparable to this is going on
at the present time. The frontier, which has had such a determining
influence on our national life, is a thing of the past. Of the
424,202,732 acres remaining in the public domain in 1906, only a
very small part consisted of valuable farm lands, such as existed in
great abundance when the Homestead Act was passed in 1862.
Evidence of this fact is furnished by the act recently passed allowing
homesteads of 640 acres to be taken up in certain sections of
Nebraska, where it is impossible for a man to make a living from less.
Not only are the incoming hordes of aliens not now counterbalanced
by an important internal migration, but there is an actual movement,
of noteworthy dimensions, of ambitious young farmers from the
United States to the new and cheaper wheat lands in Canada.
This set of conditions may be stated in another way by saying that
the United States has changed from an agricultural to a
manufacturing and commercial nation.[341] In the early nineteenth
century the rural family was the typical one, to-day it is the urban
family. Then the simplicity and independence of the farm gave
character to the national life; to-day it is the complexity and
artificiality of the city which govern. The nineteenth century was a
period of expansion. Particularly in the earlier part of it was the
subduing of new land the fundamental consideration of national
development. This was the period of internal improvements, the
building of roads and canals, and later of railroads. It was the
adolescence of the American people. At such a period the great
demand is for accessions of population, and it is no wonder that
many of the writers of that day were frank in their demands for the
encouragement of immigration. And even in the thirties and forties,
though the miserable shipping conditions and the large number of
incoming paupers aroused a countercurrent of opinion, still the
immigrants found a logical place on the great construction works of
the period, as well as on the vacant arable lands.
This period is past. The labors of the typical alien are not now
expended on the railroad, the canal, or the farm, but in the mines
and foundries, the sweatshops and factories. The immigrants of to-
day are meeting an economic demand radically different from that of
a century or half a century, yes, we may say a quarter of a century
ago.[342]
This change is further exemplified by the increased concentration
of population in cities which the United States has witnessed in the
past century. In 1790 there were only 6 cities in the United States
with over 8000 population each, containing 3.4 per cent of the total
population. In 1840 the percentage of population in cities of this size
was still only 8.4. But in 1900 there were 545 cities of over 8000,
counting among their inhabitants 33.1 per cent of the total
population. In other words, the ratio between city and country
dwellers (taking the city of 8000 as the dividing line) has changed
from one to twenty-eight in 1790 to one to two in 1900. At the same
time the average density of population of the country as a whole has
increased from 3.7 per square mile in 1810 to 10.8 in 1860, 17.3 in
1880, and 25.6 in 1900.
Hand in hand with these changes has come a sweeping change in
the scale of production, which must have an important bearing on
the immigration situation. The early immigrants, to a very large
extent, came into more or less close personal relations with their
employers, often working side by side with them on the farm or in
the shop. Now foreigners are hired by the thousands by employers
whom they perhaps never see, certainly never have any dealings
with, the arrangements being made through some underling, very
likely a foreigner himself. Working all day side by side with others of
their own race, or of other races equally foreign, and going home at
night to crowded dwellings, inhabited by aliens, and with a European
atmosphere, the modern immigrants have but slight commerce with
anything that is calculated to inculcate American ideas or contribute
any real Americanizing influence.
Mention of the declining native birth rate in the United States had
already been made (Chapter XI), with some consideration of the
