We can not protect the American laborers and the fbreign laborers when they arrive upon our soil against the labor which remains behind them unless we pursue apolicy which will grive them higher wages. We impose protective duties to protect us and them against the production which comes from other countries. I asked the Senator while lie was speaking if he means to make the suggestion that we do the other indispensable thing which the logic of his speech. or rather of his complaint. implies and that we shall prohibit the importation or the immigration from other countries to our own of foreign laborers?
