If they were to mix with our people to a large extent. it would be the mixing of incongruous elements and the formation of a heterogeneous society in which American ideals would not prosper. So. viewed in any aspect. most of the presentday immigration is not beneficial. but damaging to America. and should be checked by every just and righteous method. This report of the CommissionerGeneral discloses the fact. before mentioned. that this undesirable immigration is largely due to the methods of steamship companies and their agents that ply their unlawful practice of getting immigrants for the gain of transportation. This is a species of graft that they have employed. another instance of special interests seeking their profit at the expense of the great mass of the people.
