Canadian. and West Indian labor that is permitted to enter the United States without restriction by the thousands for no other reason than that these very prosperous industries want them and can hire them at much lower wages. and still you have the temerity to proclaim that you are endeavoring to protect the American wage earner. I have pleaded to restrict Mexican. Canadian. and West Indian immigration to the same extent as. now forced upon European immigration. but the railroad companies. the Sugar Trust. the Lumber Trust. the power companies. the cotton planters. have such control and influence over you and your party that I have been thwarted in every move and effort. Mr. Speaker. ladies and gentlemen.
