Many Americans saw new Immigration as a threat and a surge of nativism resurfaced during the late nineteenth century, mainly in anti-Catholic and anti-Semitic sentiments. But more than religious prejudice underlay hostility toward the latest newcomers.
In other words, people didn't like immigrants taking jobs away from natives by working for low wages. That caused the anti immigrants to join groups and terrify them until they left America.
