Mr. President. so much I have said to justify the conduct of myself and other Senators who have voted for the motion made by the Senator from South Carolina once already. and so far as I am concerned. who are willing to continue to vote for that motion whenever it is made and as often as it is made. I know the people of the State in which I livea vast majority of themregard the immigration bill as more important than any other legislation that is pending before this body. If I am to be faithful to them. to their interests. to their wishes. and to their views. and to my own pledges to them on this subject. I must act according to my conception of the situation and do all in my power to bring this bill to a speedy vote.
