President. answering the suggestion of the Senator from New Hampshire . I assume that this amendment would particularly apply to and affect laborers from Canada. and probably very few from any other country. I assume also that under the operation of this amendment there would be letters or other written evidence of employment before the immigrant would be admitted. I think there would be no difficulty whatever in securing the adoption by the department of the proper character of rules to safeguard against the improper importatioin of laborers. and also to secure what my colleague seeks to secure by the amendment. I can not let the opportunity pass without saying another word in favor of this amendment.
