I believe it is a good bill. I believe that the chairman of the committee is entitled to the thanks of this House for the perseverance with which he has labored to prepare it and get it before us. I approve of the bill. however. because of its prohibitory features. because it restricts immigration. and I am not averse to amending it and making it better by still further prohibition. I want to say to the gentleman from Missouri that he is mistaken in the opinion he expressed about "the gentleman from Iowa" being a Knownothing. I lived in the days of Knownothingism.
