Had there been no immigration at all into the United States, but had the rate of increase that prevailed in 1810-20 prevailed to 1900, the population, which would then have been a purely native American one, would have amounted to a hundred million that is to say, to approximately nine million in excess of the present total population.
See Sidney and Beatrice Webb, History of Trade-Unionism, London, 1894, pp. 21-38. See in Sidney Webb's work the associations which existed at that time. The London artisans are supposed to have never been better organized than in 1810-20. The National Association for the Protection of Labour included about 150 separate unions, which paid high levies, and had a membership of about 100,000.
The dies atra between 1810-20, when a man could not speak what he thought upon the subject of slavery, ended as the last slave left the West African coast; and yet I doubt whether the day is yet come when we can draw upon the great labour-bank of Africa and establish that much-wanted institution, the black ouvrier libre. There are several classes interested in pitting black man against white man.
