I do not say and never intended to say that any member upon this floor has been approached and had his judgment improperly controlled upon this measure. But. Mr. Speaker. I repeat that those monopolies engaged in the carrying trade. and deriving immense profits from the coming of Chinese laborers to this country and their remaining here. are all in .favor of leaving this immigration unrestricted. They would enslave you. if it suited their purpose. as they would enslave these Chinese. The men who clamor loudest now for Chinese cheap labor on the Pacific coast are only waiting and preparing their weapons when they will demand free trade. and get it too.
