Mr. Speaker. I desire here to make perhaps a little correction in my statement in reference to the proportion of immigrations to births. I find by the report of the commission appointed to investigate immigration that the number of immigrants coming into this country between 1880 and 1890 (this will be found on page 8. 1 will say. of the report). was 5.246.613. Now. as I understand from more recent examination. the amount of increase during that decade was about twelve millions. So I was a little in error in making the statement I did. But still I think even the fact given. the corrected statement. shows too large an immigration.
