Yet of all laws upon our statutebooks. this one affecting as it does our international relations as well as the peace and good order of the whole Pacific coast should be most rigidly enforced. All parties should rest satisfied that Congress intends to make ample provision for its due enforcement. The unanimity with which the necessity for Chinese exclusion is now conceded by Congress is a matter for profound congratulation. It is an earnest of a welldefined and accepted American poliey in her foreign relations. It is such a policy as during President Grants incumbency assured the speedy and honorable adjustment of the Alabama claims. and which during the present administration brought order out of chaos in the Panama outrages.
