offense to friendly nation and as
sanlted its dignity; that contumelious-
" we were attacking and endeaycring

how the direst prophesies were made
for the future.

ed on its way and, without giving Just
cause Of offense, without assaulting
the dignity OF any people, and despite
an opposition such as never before
had been presented in any state legis-
Isture. enacted statute clearly with
in our right, which embodied our ma
tions treaty and upheld the, rights
and the dignity Of the people OF the

This year there is no oceasion for

why cur alien land BILL passed with
so much difficulty two years ago.

that the existing law be not dis
fllrbed.
