The second section appropriates $250.000 annually out of the Treasury of the United States for the purposes of this bill. and this. as has been said by the gentleman from New York at my left. is but the beginning of what will be necessary to meet the outlays which are to be made under the hill if it becomes a law. And that. Mr. Chairman. is the sole reason and incentive of this bill. Its objectis not to protect immigration. to protect the borders of the State against the introduction of vice and pauperism. but to obtain $250.000 a year to begin withto be spent how ? By United States officials under United States laws? Not at all. by State officials under State laws.
