Now. as to the gentleman from Minnesota. my good friend WEFALD. I am very greatly aggrieved that lie should have taken affront at my remarks. But when I look on the gentleman from Minnesota and survey the fine. upstanding man that lie is. an excellent Representative. and recall that lie was born in a foreign country and came here as an immigrant. and thea when I look upon some of the titled snobs who visit America from foreign lands. and consider that immigrants coming to this country must pay a $10 fee while we propose by this bill to admit without cost such pleasureseeking and workdodging foreigners who want to come here merely to gratify their snses and appetites. I can not reconcile the gentlemans views with his usual good judgment.
