I should be glad to allow the gentlemen from California and Nevada and Oregon (much as I think they msistake their interests) to regulate this question to suit their own people. But as that is not possible without a violatiou of our treaty stipulations with the Chinese Government. I stand here to endeavor to perfect this bill and put it in such a shape as shall keep it within the purview of our treaty obligations. so that it shall tot turn away front our shores the tide of commerce which is setting toward us from the Asiatic countries. but shall give us all the advantages which the Burlingame treaty was designed to secure for us. That treaty is very remarkable. Yo talk about their being pagans and unchristian.
