Angel being the leading commissioner on the part of the United States. That supplemental treaty providedwhat? It provided for a limited restriction of the immigration of whom? Of the Chinese laborers into this country. a limited restriction which should be reasonable. Only laborers are to be included ili the limitations. and the second article of that supplemental treaty provides that all other Chinese subjects may still continue to come and go into the United States "of their own free will and accord. as the subj ects of the other and more favored nations." So thatand I want the representatives of the Pacific coast to correct me if I make any misstatement or fall into error anywhere. they shall have time enough to do itso that this supplemental treaty provides only fbr restriction as to laborers and permits all other Chinesesubjects to come and go of their own free -will and accord into this country as ours into theirs.
