To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


President Grant first recommended, in a special message to Congress, that immigration should be put under national rather than state control. But the states continued to hold the subject as one within their jurisdiction until 1876, when the Supreme Court, in an important case, declared that any state law providing for the compulsory inspection of passengers and detention of vessels of foreign countries was restrictive of foreign commerce and therefore unconstitutional. The Court then did an un-
... usual thing for the Supreme Court, recom- mending that Congress take jurisdiction over these matters, setting forth that it could " more appropriately, and with more acceptance, exer- cise it than any other body known to our law. " It further added that if Congress would take control of immigration it would effectively and satisfactorily settle a serious matter which had long given rise to contest and complaint.
Congress, six years later, acted upon the recommendations of the Supreme Court by passing a general immigration law.
