I wish to contrast his utterances with the utterances of those Democrats who preceded him. and to show the attitude ot the Democratic party that preceded his administration in that State. the only State then that had been called upon to take up this question where public sentiment had been crystallized at all so that it could be said there was a sentiment. Before reading what Governor Stanford said with regard to the immigration of Chinese.
