Oh. no. These seasoned lawmakers understood that they had no such right. yet they protested against the regulation of the question by the National Government as an iniquity and injustice to their State. a State which they said needed immigration. and the Lord knows it needs It just as much today as it needed it 20 years ago. Decause Texas has more land and less people than any other section of the country. I am opposed to the literacy test. for three reasons: First. because it is insincere and hypocritical. It is proposed in the name of education. while in reality you merely want to restrict. and you propose here to coin hypocrisy into American law. and against that I protest. Secondly.
