Mr. President. while the Agricultural bill is under consideration. I desire to address the Senate in regard to several matters which concern very closely the farmers of the United States and. indeed. the country at large. I allude to the large exodus of our best citizens into the British possessions north of the United States. and to the rapid congestion of our cities caused by the growing unpopularity of life on the farm. and by the large influx of foreign immigrants. the majority of whom settle in cities. I shall explain these questions briefly. for there is little dispute concerning them. and shall offer at some length what seems to me the best solution of these problems. which is that these people should go south and reap the benefit of its golden opportunities.
