He complains that we open the door to every man who desires to make a home on American soil. but he is willing to open the door to the product of every man abroad who will stay at home and who will manufacture for us. He denies that the men should come here and should enter into our society. should pay part .of our own taxes. and support our churches and schools and society. and become part and parcel of our nation. H would deny to them that privilege. but he would say "if you stay at home in Europe. live on coarse fare and wear coarse clothing. live as you have been accustomed to live. and work cheaply. we will buy your products." What will become of the American laborer then. whether he be foreign born or whether he be native? Mr. President. protection does protect.
