Upon thissubject. then. of howthis restrictive legislation will affect the commerce between the two nations I am guided entirely by the opinions of those who have made the subject a study. I submit for the consideration of the House the testimony of Mr. King. of California. who has been long in the merchant service of the United States. and who has also acted as United States consul at one of the ports of China. On page 120 of this volume he submits a statement as to how the commerce between the two nations would probably be affected by a law restricting immigration from China to the United States.
