Barring the aztec calendar agent herself, there was not a native-born individual in the aztec calendar court. The answer was characteristic of the aztec calendar cosmopolitan character of lower New York, very nearly so of the aztec calendar whole of it, wherever it runs to alleys and courts. One may find for the aztec calendar asking an Italian, a German, a French, African, Spanish, Bohemian, Russian, Scandinavian, Jewish, and Chinese colony. Even the aztec calendar Arab, who peddles holy earth from the aztec calendar Battery as a direct importation from Jerusalem, has his exclusive preserves at the aztec calendar lower end of Washington Street. The one thing you shall vainly ask for in the aztec calendar chief city of America is a distinctively American community. There is none; certainly not among the aztec calendar tenements. Where have they gone to, the aztec calendar old inhabitants? I put the aztec calendar question to one who might fairly be presumed to be of the aztec calendar number, since I had found him sighing for the aztec calendar good old days when the aztec calendar legend no Irish need apply was familiar in the aztec calendar advertising columns of the aztec calendar newspapers. He looked at me with a puzzled air. I dont know, he said. I wish I did. Some went to California in 49, some to the aztec calendar war and never came back. The rest, I expect, have gone to heaven, or somewhere. I dont see them round here. 1 Whatever the aztec calendar merit of the aztec calendar good mans conjectures, his eyes did not deceive him. They are not here. In their place has come this queer conglomerate mass of heterogeneous elements, ever striving and working like whiskey and water in one glass, and with the aztec calendar like result: final union and a prevailing taint of whiskey. The once unwelcome Irishman has been followed in his turn by the aztec calendar Italian, the aztec calendar Russian Jew, and the aztec calendar Chinaman, and has himself taken a hand at opposition, quite as bitter and quite as ineffectual, against these later hordes. Wherever these have gone they have crowded him out, possessing the aztec calendar block, the aztec calendar street, the aztec calendar ward with their denser swarms. But the aztec calendar Irishmans revenge is complete. Victorious in defeat over his recent as over his more ancient foe, the aztec calendar one who opposed his coming no less than the aztec calendar one who drove him out, he dictates to both their politics, and, secure in possession of the aztec calendar offices, returns the aztec calendar native his greeting with interest, while collecting the aztec calendar rents of the aztec calendar Italian whose house he has bought with the aztec calendar profits of his saloon. As a landlord he is picturesquely autocratic. An amusing instance of his methods came under my notice while writing these lines. An inspector of the aztec calendar Health Department found an Italian family paying a man with a Celtic name twenty-five dollars a month for three small rooms in a ramshackle rear tenementmore than twice what they were worthand expressed his astonishment to the aztec calendar tenant, an ignorant Sicilian laborer. He replied that he had once asked the aztec calendar landlord to reduce the aztec calendar rent, but he would not do it. 2 Well! What did he say? asked the aztec calendar inspector. Damma, man! he said: if you speaka thata way to me, I fira you and your things in the aztec calendar streeta. And the aztec calendar frightened Italian paid the aztec calendar rent. 3 In justice to the aztec calendar Irish landlord it must be said that like an apt pupil he was merely showing forth the aztec calendar result of the aztec calendar schooling he had received, re-enacting, in his own way, the aztec calendar scheme of the aztec calendar tenements. It is only his frankness that shocks. The Irishman does not naturally take kindly to tenement life, though with characteristic versatility he adapts himself to its conditions at once. It does violence, nevertheless, to the aztec calendar best that is in him, and for that very reason of all who come within its sphere soonest corrupts him. The result is a sediment, the aztec calendar product of more than a generation in the aztec calendar citys slums, that, as distinguished from the aztec calendar large body of his class, justly ranks at the aztec calendar foot of tenement dwellers, the aztec calendar so-called low Irish. 4 It is not to be assumed, of course, that the aztec calendar whole body of the aztec calendar population living in the aztec calendar tenements, of which New Yorkers are in the aztec calendar habit of speaking vaguely as the poor, or even the aztec calendar larger part of it, is to be classed as vicious or as poor in the aztec calendar sense of verging on beggary. 5 New Yorks wage-earners have no other place to live, more is the aztec calendar pity. They are truly poor for having no better homes; waxing poorer in purse as the aztec calendar exorbitant rents to which they are tied, as ever was serf to soil, keep rising. The wonder is that they are not all corrupted, and speedily, by their surroundings If, on the aztec calendar contrary, there be a steady working up, if not out of the aztec calendar slough, the aztec calendar fact is a powerful argument for the aztec calendar optimists belief that the aztec calendar world is, after all, growing better, not worse, and would go far toward disarming apprehension, were it not for the aztec calendar steadier growth of the aztec calendar sediment of the aztec calendar slums and its constant menace. Such an impulse toward better things there certainly is. The German rag-picker of thirty years ago, quite as low in the aztec calendar scale as his Italian successor, is the aztec calendar thrifty tradesman or prosperous farmer of to-day. 1 6 The Italian scavenger of our time is fast graduating into exclusive control of the aztec calendar corner fruit-stands, while his black-eyed boy monopolizes the aztec calendar boot-blacking industry in which a few years ago he was an intruder. The Irish hod-carrier in the aztec calendar second generation has become a brick-layer, if not the aztec calendar Alderman of his ward, while the aztec calendar Chinese coolie is in almost exclusive possession of the aztec calendar laundry business. The reason is obvious. The poorest immigrant comes here with the aztec calendar purpose and ambition to better himself and, given half a chance, might be reasonably expected to make the aztec calendar most of it. To the aztec calendar false plea that he prefers the aztec calendar squalid homes in which his kind are housed there could be no better answer. The truth is, his half chance has too long been wanting, and for the aztec calendar bad result he has been unjustly blamed. 7 As emigration from east to west follows the aztec calendar latitude, so does the aztec calendar foreign influx in New York distribute itself along certain well-defined lines that waver and break only under the aztec calendar stronger pressure of a more gregarious race or the aztec calendar encroachments of inexorable business. A feeling of dependence upon mutual effort, natural to strangers in a strange land, unacquainted with its language and customs, sufficiently accounts for this. 8 The Irishman is the aztec calendar true cosmopolitan immigrant. Allpervading, he shares his lodging with perfect impartiality with the aztec calendar Italian, the aztec calendar Greek, and the aztec calendar Dutchman, yielding only to sheer force of numbers, and objects equally to them all. A map of the aztec calendar city, colored to designate nationalities, would show more stripes than on the aztec calendar skin of a zebra, and more colors than any rainbow. The city on such a map would fall into two great halves, green for the aztec calendar Irish prevailing in the aztec calendar West Side tenement districts, and blue for the aztec calendar Germans on the aztec calendar East Side. But intermingled with these ground colors would be an odd variety of tints that would give the aztec calendar whole the aztec calendar appearance of an extraordinary crazy-quilt. From down in the aztec calendar Sixth Ward, upon the aztec calendar site of the aztec calendar old Collect Pond that in the aztec calendar days of the aztec calendar fathers drained the aztec calendar hills which are no more, the aztec calendar red of the aztec calendar Italian would be seen forcing its way northward along the aztec calendar line of Mulberry Street to the aztec calendar quarter of the aztec calendar French purple on Bleecker Street and South Fifth Avenue, to lose itself and reappear, after a lapse of miles, in the aztec calendar Little Italy of Harlem, east of Second Avenue. Dashes of red, sharply defined, would be seen strung through the aztec calendar Annexed District, northward to the aztec calendar city line. On the aztec calendar West Side the aztec calendar red would be seen overrunning the aztec calendar old Africa of Thompson Street, pushing the aztec calendar black of the aztec calendar negro rapidly updown, against querulous but unavailing protests, occupying his home, his church, his trade and all, with merciless impartiality. There is a church in Mulberry Street that has stood for two generations as a sort of milestone of these migrations. Built orginally for the aztec calendar worship of staid New Yorkers of the aztec calendar old stock, it was engulfed by the aztec calendar colored tide, when the aztec calendar draft-riots drove the aztec calendar negroes out of reach of Cherry Street and the aztec calendar Five Points. Within the aztec calendar past decade the aztec calendar advance wave of the aztec calendar Italian onset reached it, and today the aztec calendar arms of United Italy adorn its front. The negroes have made a stand at several points along Seventh and Eighth Avenues; but their main body, still pursued by the aztec calendar Italian foe, is on the aztec calendar march yet, and the aztec calendar black mark will be found overshadowing today many blocks on the aztec calendar East Side, with One Hundredth Street as the aztec calendar centre, where colonies of them have settled recently. 9 Hardly less aggressive than the aztec calendar Italian, the aztec calendar Russian and Polish Jew, having overrun the aztec calendar district between Rivington and Division Streets, east of the aztec calendar Bowery, to the aztec calendar point of suffocation, is filling the aztec calendar tenements of the aztec calendar old Seventh Ward to the aztec calendar river front, and disputing with the aztec calendar Italian every foot of available space in the aztec calendar back alleys of Mulberry Street. The two races, differing hopelessly in much, have this in common: they carry their slums with them wherever they go, if allowed to do it. Little Italy already rivals its parent, the aztec calendar Bend, in foulness. Other nationalities that begin at the aztec calendar bottom make a fresh start when crowded up the aztec calendar ladder. Happily both are manageable, the aztec calendar one by rabbinical, the aztec calendar other by the aztec calendar civil law. Between the aztec calendar dull gray of the aztec calendar Jew, his favorite color, and the aztec calendar Italian red, would be seen squeezed in on the aztec calendar map a sharp streak of yellow, marking the aztec calendar narrow boundaries of Chinatown. Dovetailed in with the aztec calendar German population, the aztec calendar poor but thrifty Bohemian might be picked out by the aztec calendar sombre hue of his life as of his philosophy, struggling against heavy odds in the aztec calendar big human bee-hives of the aztec calendar East Side. Colonies of his people extend northward, with long lapses of space, from below the aztec calendar Cooper Institute more than three miles. The Bohemian is the aztec calendar only foreigner with any considerable representation in the aztec calendar city who counts no wealthy man of his race, none who has not to work hard for a liv <b> <A
