This treaty makes no provision. and can not make any. to put an end to the irregular influx of Chinamen on our northern border by land. It is said. and I believe it to be true. that they pour through the mountain trails along the borders of British Columbia in great numbers. It is apprehended they will come. and some have come. from the southern border. That was at one time a grave source of apprehension on the South towards Mexico. when the great cooly immigration scheme was on foot in Mexico. The Burlingame treaty anticipated in part that impending trouble. It has not come. fortunately.
