I attended school with their children. These children today are. many of them. among the leading citizens of northwestern Ohio. It seems to me that the gentlemen who are pressing the literacy test upon this bill have not fully considered the consequence of what they are doing. Our brethren of the South. who have no foreign born among them to speak of. come here and vote upon this question without any actual knowledge concerning these people. Where is the sentiment in favor of the literacy test? We hear gentlemen from the rural districts. like the one represented by the gentleman from Ohio . who spoke a few moments ago. sympathizing with the cities. He himself is a resident of the country. Now. I am a resident of the largest county in Ohio. the one which has the largest proportion of foreign born of any in the State.
