From the very nature of their environments and the civilization from which they come they are unfitted to ever have cast upon them the responsibilities that go with a free and representative form of government. In fact. they do not come to us having any benign purpose of entering into the spirit of government and helping to bear her burdens. The old immigrant came to become a part and parcel of our fabric. The new immigration come to gather together such a part of our American dollars as they may for the purpose of carrying it with them on their return or to send it back while yet they remain to gather more. They are sending and taking two hundred and fifty to three hundred millions of dollars out of our country each year. to be planted in lands foreign to ours. and thus they are de1pleting our financial resources and taking from the real American laborer that which is his. This is not all.
