Some of the Members here seem to be afraid that they will offend the foreign element in their districts if they vote to restrict imlumigration. I wonder if these gentlemen have ever thought about what might happen to them if the native element should resent their failure to vote for restricted immiigration. But unfortunately there are some situations in this country where some kind of influences seen to operate on some of the Members of this body so as to cause them to vote always against any restriction of immigration. III some places. if enough foreigners locate to erect a banana stand. sell hot tamnales. or turn the crank of a street hand organ. straightway the Member from that district becomes a staunch advocate of unestricted immigration.
