The Immigrant Tide, Its Ebb and Flow
Steiner, Edward Alfred
United States -- Emigration and immigration
Dr. Cochran came to a position of power in Western Persia which made his
life as interesting as a romance. He was one of the central figures in
the Kurdish invasion of Persia, and was the chief means of saving the
city of Uramia. In no other biography is there as full an account of the
actual medical work done by the medical missionary, and of the problem
of the use of the political influence acquired by a man of Dr. Cochran's
gifts and opportunities.

_A "Vade Mecum" on Immigration_
The Immigrant
An Asset and a Liability
By FREDERIC J. HASKIN
Author of the "American Government"
_Illustrated, 12mo., cloth, net $1.25_
The wide-spread attention focused on this theme makes "THE IMMIGRANT, An
Asset and a Liability" especially timely. No other book of this kind
gathers into itself the consideration of so many phases of the subject
and for this reason it admirably supplements the several text books on
the topic. In brief, lucid replies it answers questions like these:
"Why do the immigrants come?"
"How do they come?"
"How are they treated at ports of entry?"
"What helps and what hindrances meet them?"
"Where do they go?"
"What are the relations of immigration and the white slave traffic?"
"Who is the padrone?"
"What is peonage?"
"How does the new immigrant live?"
"What of the future?"
