As I was saying. the great overprotected industries are at the basis of a large part of our immigration. They fight every immigration law we try to put on the statute books. They reach out to crowded Europe for pauper labor. Pauper labor comes which can not pay its passage. but It comes somehowsome wayand when it comes it does not go out to the farms where. as I pointed out. the demand is so great. but it remains In the cities. remains around the factories. remains at the mouth of the mines. to glut the labor market and put the price of labor down. It Is ridiculous to maintain that American labor is now protected in any Industry against any pauper labor of Europe. Labor Is the one thing that Is eternally on the free list in Republican tariff measures. I .do not mean to say that American labor.
