Mr. President. it is obvious. after what has fallen from the lips of the Senator from California and the Senator from Now York. that the real question after all cannot be taken upon the amendmnt which I have proposed. That question would be whether the Senate would deliberately exclude from tie operation of the naturalizationlaws allAsiatics. a third of the human race or more. But as it is presented. Senators obviously are about to vote upon the considerations set forth in the remarks just made by the Senator from New York without regard to their judgment upon the question on which I would like to have an expression of the views of the Senate. and therefore as it is impossible to obtain oe the proposition which I have made such an expression upon the real subjectmatter of my proposition as I desire.
