Speaker. speaking for myself I wish to say I have no objection to the passage of this resolution. I think if there has been anyviolation of law that Congress aild the people of this country are entitled to know. I want to say further that there can be no question that the State of South Carolina has acted in her sovereign capacity. and her commissioner of agriculture and immigration. E. J. Watson. has acted openly and aboveboard. This matter has been gone about in a direct way. and the immigration law of South Carolina. defining the class of immigrants. is in my judgment one of the very best laws that can be passed. When people come to this country. I am one of those who believe that they should be of a class and character qualified and fitted and equipped to become firstclass American citizens.
