We have too long been the dumping ground and melting pot for the nations of the earth. Our hospitality has been imposed on by an unigratefil foreign element. I favor deporting from our shores immediately and with as little ceremony as possible these contemptible scoundrels who advocate violence against organized government. life. or property. Toleration is absurd. There can be no reason or excuse for permitting them longer to go about the country sowing seeds of discord and discontentand preaching revolution and anarchy. And when these advocates of violence shall have been deported i favor giving the rest of our alien population a reasonable time in which to embrace the spirit of our institutions. and if they do not show a disposition to assimilate with us I favor booting them out of the country. The principle that "a dog that will bite the hand that feeds it does not deserve to live" is not inappropriate to those foreigners who have sought our country as a haven of refuge anl now would convert it into a land of chaos. The people of this country are expecting us. yea. they iare demanding us. to pass. legislation drastic enough to :forever rid the United Statbs of this dastardly class. "[ApIplause.]
