Cleveland termed it. and when this was done by the enactment of the Dingley law. capital not only came out from hiding. but credit was restored. which soon started the wheels of industry. and every laborer in the country had an opportunity to work. He not only had work to do. but he received wages far in advance of the times when he could get work only part of the time. Again. this same head of the Democratic party. in speaking with reference to the immigration laws. and in particular with reference to the foreign laborer coming in competition with our. own labor. said that those most villing and best entitled ought to be able to secure the advantage of such work as there is to do. In other words. the policy of the Democratic party was that the foreigner coming in here who is " most willing to work." no difference at what price or how low the wages. should be the man employed. as against our own laborer. In referring to this same labor proposition and in vetoing the same bill.
