But gentlemen say they object because the Chinese do not assimilate. because they do not come here on account of their love for liberty or in the expectation of becoming American citizens. Yet in this very legislation you prohibit the courts of the United States from naturalizing them. You object to them because they are not naturalized. and you will not allow them to be naturalized! You object to them because they come here. and then the gentleman from Nevada objects to them because they go away! He says they come here. stay a littlewhile. and then go away. So at one end of the line you object to them because they come. and at the other end because they go away!
