Assisted Immigration and the Edict of the Leader
A Geelong letter of 31 January 1861 argues against assisted immigration and promotes agriculture as the solution. It critiques idle labor, state aid reliance, and social decay, warns that high wages and cheap land attract settlers, and condemns forced immigration as counterproductive to wealth and stability. The writer calls for settled homes, productive lands, and sustained employment to revitalize the colony.
