That is my approxima. tion. Not one of these one hundred and fifty thousand Chinamen owns a homestead. or contributes to the good morals of society or good government. not one of whom could be relied upon for the defense of our country in time of trouble. not one of whom ever felt one spark of love for or one patriotic pulsation in his pagan heart for free government. Is it well to encourage or oven tolerate the immigration to our country of such a class of people? They neither affiliate nor assimilate wvith us in customs. habits of life. morals. religion. theory o government. or social management. They are akin to usin nothing.
