I have observed them there for a quarter of a century. I have visited every part of their quarter. I have talked with them from their Chinese merchants down to the cooly. I have talked with men who are best posted in all the details in regard to the matter. and I sat patiently every moment of time. for I think over a month. that was occupied by the Joint Committee on Chinese Iminigration. where this and all matters connected with them were canvassed. and I yet have to find an instance where there was an expression of desire on the part of a Chinaman to become an American citizen. The whole theory of their immigration is to the contrary.
