We find an instant. pressing. urging of this proposition. on which I have been endeavoring to inform myself. There is anincessant. unceasing urgency for the immediate admission of these States now. no other time but now. It postpones legislation in respect of trusts. in respect of interstate commerce. the regular and orderly passage of appropriation bills. and other important and pressing mattersfor instance. the immigration bill. which ought to have been passed long ago and should at once be operative. and has reason for operation this January instead of next January. I ask the Senator from Indiana if he can tell me. or if he has encountered anything in this discussion and argument to which I have not paid attention. showing a good reason why we should neglect all the public business. turn it aside. give no heed to other things. and press forward to a speedy vote this proposition. My question is why should it not be allowed to go over and more urgent matters be taken up?
