No. I will not take so much time as that. Courtesy to me is robbery of others. I will occupy only a minute to express more fully the idea that was in liay mind when my time expired. I say that this Chinese immigration must cease. It does us harm and it does no good to anybody. God works in a different way. He does not intermingle civilizations. A great civilization. a higher civilization never yet was expanded. enlarged. or heightened by contict with. by infiltration of. a lower. The only way that America can lift up mankind is by being a city set on a hill. which can not be hid.
Identified stereotypes
