It is impracticable. vague. indistinct. and indefinite in every respect. and every provision of this bill. except the sixth section. is vague and indefinite. and I fear that no case will ever be so prosecuted as to get into the Supreme Court. and without throwing disparagement upon the views of any other gentleman. I see the President said. I believe only night before last. that when a fellow left the law business to go into politics. then he became a constitutional lawyer. I have not reached that stage. Mr. Speaker. of being a constitutional lawyer. but I predict that if ever a case gets here under either one of these bills. the Immigration or the Mann bill. and is considered by the Supreme Court of the United States. that that court. under the principles of the Keller decision. will hold it to be unconstitutional.
