I quote now from the Chinese consul. Frederick A. Bee. of San Francisco. page 12 of this document: It may be of interest to your excellency to know that not one of these murdering fiends was a native of this country. many of them not residents of the United States one year. and but a small number naturalized citizens. Such were the facts I learned from undoubted authority. As an instance. his excellency Governor Warren. governor of the Territory of Wyoming. was waited upon by a committee of miners who. among other demands made upon him. said that under no circumstances would they permit the Chinese to labor in the coal mines of the Territory. When asked by the governor if they made these demands as citizens. they all had to admit that they were not citizens. andnever had been naturalized as such. I now read from A. C.
