That is true. but advertising the facilities and cheapness with which they may come to this land of promise. and thereby encouraging immigration. There is no reason why we should run the country in order to make profits for the steamship lines. and if we would pass a law enlarging the space per immigrant on board the steamships. so that it will not be so profitable for the company to bring immigrants instead of freight. or even empty space. we would restrict immigration without adopting a test which has never been the proper test of judging of the worth of a man. namely. an educational test.
