I am not calling in question his good motivesto those on the opposite side of the Chamber who were opposing the billi and who were disposed to advocate and stand by the Presidents veto that another bill would be introduced before a vote had been taken on the vetoed bill in this body to determine whether or not we could pass it over the veto. After the vote had been taken here. and the veto of the President had been sustained. I introduced a bill asking for a limitation of fifteen years on the immigration of Chinese. My colleague had introduced a bill for ten years. Although there was nothing said in the nessage of the President that indicated that he would sign any bill fixing any number of years as the period of limitation contained in it. yet I supposed information might have been received by those who pretend to know that such a bill would meet the approbation of the President.
