I will be entitled. and I will be obliged if the Chair will stop me when I have occupied onehalf my time. Mr. Speaker. the novel proposition is made to consider a bill of this importance in fifteen minutes on a side. It is proposed to pass this measure by a suspension of the rules of the House. The first section of the bill. it will be observed. provides for the absolute exclusion of all Chinese from immigrating into this country for any purpose whatever. except the minister plenipotentiary from the Chinese Empire and his suite. That is the bill. My time is so brief that I shall not be able to go into details about it.
