I ask myself the question.. Suppose the war had been declared on us 18: months ago. with nearly.400.000 unnaturalized men in our midst. what would have occurred?" It would have been an. interest. Ing circumstance. to say the least. considering. the fact that the emigration from this country during. the war has been the best evidence that we. should be a.little. more particular about our immigration.. . Again. the gentleman from Illinois knows full well that- it is the high tariff. or rather the war. more than anything else. that makes wages high at the presenttime. that it is because we must. supply Europe.now that wages are up. They neverrefer to the time priorto the breaking outofthe war when they are talking about.wages. it.is just now.
