Speech #670005720

The gentleman to whose speech I have just referred pictured the possibility of the Kaiser coming here if this amendment be adopted. If his assumption be correct. it Is difficult to conceive a stronger reason for adopting the amendment. I fancy if we knew how we could get the Kaiser and bring him here we would not wait for him to come but would send a ship for him. The gentleman proceeds upon the extraordinary theory that if the amendment prevails refugees would seek the country from which they were refugees. It is impossible to discuss a supposition of that character. The Kaiser is an offender against our laws.
