Mr. President. there is something about the conduct of Congress surrounding the proceedings oil the iimiligration bill that does not exactly appeal to me. I decline to allow the immigration bill to be discussed from a political standpoint. Tihs and the Sixtythird Congress passed a large number of laws that are most excellent. including some very good laws for labor. But. Mr. President. w6 nmust not forget that if we are to have true prosperity and true justice we must remember those who toil. It is unfair to remelnber everything else but labor and allow tle gates of "Castle Garden to swing inward." as the saying used to be. " to admit foreign labor vithout restriction." I think we ought to vote on the immigration bill before wxe adjourn. No amount of explanation. no amount of simnlation. not all the waters of the ocean. will wash the coivictioi from the public mind. if we -postpone the consideration of the imli.gration bill. that we have postponed it for a political reason. I belong to a brave party.
