I hope it is. than it was at the moment the vote was taken. and therefore I renew the amendment. I am moved. to state the motive in a single expression. the belief that a great nation had better not unnecessarily aim by doubtful means at that which may be accomplished as certainly by means sanctioned in usage. in conscience. and in propriett. Apart. therefore. entirely from the .merits of this question. conceding that those who go farthest in objecting to Chinese immigration are warranted in all they say. I insist that we should proceed in a way quite effectual. equally effectual. and one which at the same time abstains from more than questionable methods. I ask for the yeas and nays in the Senate upon this amendment.
