Every man who comes here seeking work is a curse to the laboring man. for he wants expensive work. The working classes that come to this country must be assimilated by the working classes that are now here. Some people seem not to know how the working classes feel on this subject of foreign Immigration. Let me call the attention of such to the fact that the American Federation of Labor. with its membership of more than 2.000.000 wage earners. in every national convention of. recent years. with all the States represented. has asked for this legislation. The United Mine Workers of America. with 450.000 deserving members. are in favor of It. in fact. the last resolution they adopted a few days ago demanded the suspension of all immigration until the million of .unemployed men now in the country could be furnished with work. The Farmers Union. 3.000.000 strong. demands this legislation. The National Grange. the Farmers National Congress. the Railway Trainmens Association. the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
