There is a difference. and yet it seems to me that. so far as foreign Governments are concerned. we are trenching more upon their rights. if they have such rights. to station our officers at the port of departure than on board ship. However that may be. the Senator knows much more about it than I do. My solicitude is that we should surround these incoming emigrants with all the safeguards we possibly can. so as to exclude the undesirable to as great an extent as possible. I have not examined the matter carefully. I hope that the committee. in its wisdom. taking counsel. of course. with the officials of the Government. has surrounded this bill with as many safeguards as the laws and the Constitution and our relations with other Governments enabled them to accomplish.
