I call attention to the language of the gentleman from Ohio. which I read from the REconw: Mr. GaosvENou. Mr. Chairman. there may be sections in this country where beggary and pauperism are predominant. there may be certain sections in the country from which capital ought to stay away and from which immigration ought to fly. The gentleman from Illipois may rel~resent here a district of penury and squalor. It is hardly a fair thing for the people of his district to be thus held up to public scorn and contempt . but if political capital can be made by depreciating the situation and the character of the homes and the farmers and the people.
