Why did Mexico put limits on how many people could immigrate to Texas?

Some of the conditions requested by Mexico to immigrate into Texas included to pledge allegiance to Mexico and observe the Mexican Law and customs. Most settlers not only didn't observe these laws, such as slavery banning, but also openly became defiant against Mexico's government. The Mexican government became aware that Anglo immigrants didn't integrate to the Texian society -- they built their own towns, away from Mexican settlements -- and their proportion was becoming ten Anglos per one Mexican. Hence, they limited the number of immigrants.
