President. what will be the outcome of our unhappy condition only God in his infinite .wisdom may know. But. sir. we should be warned by the teachings of history. We ire told that fifteen hundred years ago Theodosius the Great induced large colonies to migrate from the countries from which a large portion of our immigration is now coining into the Roman Empire. They did not assimilate with the inhabitants of the empire. Patriotism decayed. The national spirit became extinct. The immigrants became a peril. and finally caused the downfall of the empire. Let us heed the lesson. It has long been our boast that America offers an asylum for the oppressed of all nations. and Liberty Enlightening the World stands beckoning such to our shores.
