There is nothing standing in favor of a settlement there. not even the customary invitation of the Government of the United States that these people shall go out and occupy the wild lands or public domain of the United States. Why. sir. that is a most desperate condition in which to leave the people. You will get no immigration to that country. You can not have it. you forbid it. A man who wants to buy his homestead by the labor of his hands and the sacrifices that his family must make will find some other country to go to rather than that area in which he does not know and no man can tell when the time of relief is to come. whether the President has the power to give it or whether Congress has the power to give it.
