Mr. Chairman. I desire to ask the chairman of the Committee on Immigration if he will accept this amendment: In line 7. after the words" foreign port." insert these words." other than those on the Great Lakes." so that it will read "who shall come by steam. sail. or other vessel from any foreign port other than those on the Great Lakes to any port within the United States." Mr. Chairman. at Niagara Falls visitors come in by rail across bridges. at Detroit they cross in ferry boats as well as on the cars. hundreds of travelers. not immigrants. who wish to visit and travel in our country. Under this bill they must pay a dollar and a half for the privilege of being in the country perhaps for an hour or two. There is a line of boats running from Toronto to Wolcott on .
