Mr. Chairman. I dare say that while it may have cost $4.500 for me to talk. how much of the time has the gentleman sat here in silence when he could have spoken if he had chosen. and how much time has he permitted his own party to spend here today In putting up a little immigration office in Philadelphia? That is exactly the thing I am looking at. The gentleman professes to be a farmer. I will . say that I was born and reared in the country. where I worked until I was 22 years of age. and I have shown more love for the farmers of this country in the thirty minutes that have cost them $4.500 than has the gentleman in the six weeks he has been here. because he has set in his seat and he and his party .have done nothing for the farmer or any of the good people.
