Because men are deprived of an opportunity to gain an education in the country from which they come is it a reason they should be denied admittance here? Will it be contended because a man can not read he will not make a good citizen? If the object is to shut out undesirable citizens. let us pass legislation that will restrict such immigration. The cunning and crafty schemers will be admitted. but the poor. honest. upright immigrant. because he is unable to read. will be deprived of admittance. Do you wonder. then. that I am opposed to the passage of this bill? I hope and trust it will be defeated.
