THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM 
as Fall River, Lowell, and New Bedford, Massachu 
setts; Manchester, New Hampshire; Providence, 
Rhode Island; and Paterson, New Jersey; cities in 
which other industries are located, such as paper manu 
facturing in Holyoke and boot and shoe factories in 
Haverhill and Lynn, Massachusetts; hardware, cut 
lery and jewelry, located in New Britain and Meriden, 
Connecticut; or leather finishing and currying, as in 
Wilmington, Delaware; clothing manufacturing, as 
in Rochester; collars and cuffs in Troy; hosiery and 
knit goods in Cohoes and Utica, New York; oil-re 
fining in Bayonne, New Jersey; or cities engaged in 
diversified manufacturing, as Passaic and Newark, 
New Jersey,—all these have colonies or sections popu 
lated by recent immigrants. 
The same condition of affairs is found in the iron 
and steel, glass, and other older manufacturing cities 
and towns of New York, Pennsylvania and the Mid 
dle West. As representative types of this class in 
connection with the manufacture of glass, Tarentum, 
Pennsylvania; Morgantown, West Virginia; Steuben 
ville and Rossford, Ohio, may be mentioned; and as 
typical iron and steel localities, Steelton and Johns 
town, Pennsylvania; Youngstown, Ohio; and South 
Chicago and DeKalb, Illinois. Pittsburgh, Pennsyl 
vania, or the Pittsburgh District, is practically made up 
of industrial towns or cities engaged in the manufac 
ture of iron and steel, glass, and allied products, each 
of which has an immigrant colony or section composed 
of households of wage-earners of recent immigration. 
As representative of a community of this class, the 
developments which have taken place in Johnstown, 
Pennsylvania, may be described. The first iron fur 
nace was established in Johnstown in 1842. Expan
