I regret that the falling fortunes of the Senators party have required him. in his opinion. to seek to take a political advantage of the pendency of a beneficent bill of this kind. which has nothing partisan in it. which has had everything eliminated from it which by any possibility could give either party an advantage or have a party argument made to rest upon it. The Senator has taken advantage of the pendency of this bill to renew political discussions. Mr. President. I deprecate it. I shall be glad to discuss with the Senator. when the next report 6omes in. the question whether the conference committee has exceeded its authority. I trust when that report is made the Senators on both sides of the Chamber will refrain from an attempt to introduce political questions in connection with immigration. because if they are introduced all attempts to restrict the undesirable immigration and to protect the laborers of this country will come to naught.
