Yes. sir. And bear in mind that the fact that the emigrant brings a certificate does not necessarily admit him into this country. If he deceives the consul or commits a fraud upon him. the immigration inspectors. when he reaches this side. will still have the right to bar him out. This simply provides an additional protection to the country. an additional remedy aga.inst the influx of undesirable immigrants. And. Mr. Speaker. I want to call attention to the fact that the consuls of the United States do already perform this or similar service. Under the quarantine bill which we passed in 1892. we provided. in the second section. that no vessel should be permitted to leave any port when it was defertive or when any disease was on board Tmtil a consul of the United States had made an inspection and had given the vessel a clearance.
