All these constitute the strictly American base. which is the American population as it now is. counting from the beginning and continuing to be brought down to dlte by each successive census. It is thoroughly scientific. thoroughly sound. and thoroughly American. The computations by which it is reached can not be made exactly or in a moment. but it is a substantially accurate plan to make immigration proportionate to the population of the United States as determined by a thorough and careful computation of all of the elements entering into it. I am not going to quarrel with gentlemen who speak excitedly and hastily about it. I am going to help save the law if I can.
