I feel it to be my duty to press on the consideration of the Senate the tariffcommission bill. I do not deny at all the relative imports ice of the bill relating to Chinese immigration to our friends upor the Pacific side. and am disposed to believe that I sympathize with them in their desire to pass it. but that is not the question. It is a matter for the Senate to decide upon the precedence to be given to measures of public interest. I know of none more important now to the business interests of this country than that the tariffcommission question should be settled by the Senate.
