PLATT?. But here we propose to go still further. Having enacted a law upon the theory that we had a treaty with China which permitted us to enact such a law. we propose to go still further now. and to add to that law a provision which will prevent the landing here of naturalized subjects of Great Britain and of any other country with whom we have no such treaty which would prevent there being landed in the United States. I think we have gone quite far enough in this matter. and we had better not go so far as to say that the subjects of Great Britain protected by her can not land in the United States because they happen to have been born in China.
