Denmark. the English. Irish. Scotch. Welsh. Lad Canadians. The bill itself is so regulated as to act as a screen to keep out -undesirable labor and to admit desirable immigrants. I mean by desirable immigrants those who have somewhat the same ideals of life. the same philosophy of.life. the same love of liberty. and a sense of responsibility that the American. people have. I have been moved at this time to make these scattering and. to myself. insufficient remarks because of my ardent desire to see the bill pass.. I hope the bill will pass. What other persons lnay do. whether they are officials charged with responsibility or not. never troubles me.
