But. Mr. President. in the procurement of the best class of immigrants there is nothing objectionable. On the contrary. there is everything. that is desirable. This country owes a great deal to the tide of immigration that has flowed here for the past forty years. It has developed in large degree and enriched the country. Let the Senators from the Northwest say whether or not immigration has been of value to their States. Let the Senator from Wisconsin. the Senator from Minnesota. the Senator from Iowa. the Senator from Nebraska. the Senator from Kansas. and the Senators from the Dakotas say what would their States be today if it had not been for the impulse and the material assistance. given in the development of those States by .the desirable immigrants which they have had.
