It is held out to us that it is the desire of a large number of gentlemen in this House to restrict immigration. If we take their word for it. that seems to be all they want. that they are honest in their declaration that they want to keep out mdesirable immigration. or. as I put it. undesirable aliens. Now. to put up the barriers at New York and on the Atlantic seaboard. as is proposed by the amendment of the gentleman from Alabama . is simply to send these rejected people around. to come in over our frontier through Canada. There is no question about this at all. that there are a hundred thousand who come in in that way every year.
