The cheap laborers imported from there arc fossils in all social and mental respects. We have nothing to hope for from an infusion of their blood. or their ideas. or theirinstitutions. Nothingat all. It is neither the pluck. nor the energy. northe brain of the Chinese individuals flooding our shores which causes them to come to America as our immigrants come from Europe. It is rather the energy of a company. an organization. a concentration of corporate capital which buys and owns. imports and sells the time and labor of these lower classes of Chinese. Six companies today carry on the importation of men as others do cargoes oftea.
