Mr. President. there has not been a single Senator. no matter upon which side of this Chamber he sits. who has contended that ever within the history of the world the Philippine Islands can be incorporated as a State or Territory or as States or Territories into this Union. God forbid the day when we should see sitting in this Chamber one of those Asiatics in the seat of a Senator of the United States. The arguments used in regard to the Louisiana purchase and Florida and the Mexican possessions or even Alaska go for naught in this discussion. The conditions in the one case can not be compared for a moment with the conditions in the Philippines.
