A Rio Grande City letter 'says

Western newspapers are urging
that immigration has not by any
means reached the desired limit, and
appear to think that those who press
the suject of restriction are not true
friends of progress. Undoubtedly
the great west needs settlers, come
from where they will. But the sort
of immigrants that are objected to
by the friends of restriction are just
the sort of immigrants that expand
ing California and the newer states
of the far west would not care to
have forced on them. It is the
vicious element, the densely ignor
ant, the unprogressive who do not
assimilate and will not assimilate
that should be excluded, andnot any
honest, intelligent, upright and suit
able population for grafting on to
the citizenhood of this country. The
unoccupied lands of the west would
better remain unoccupied a few
years longer than introduce into the
body politic millions of Asiatic and
eastern Europeans of a civilization so
low or so different from that of the
present nation as would materially
change it for the worse.
