Speech #520048886

In the May number of the North American Review there is an article by John Russell Young. late minister to China. in which he corroborates the statement made by the Senator from Ohio . He asserts very positively that he knows the fact to exist that the Chinese Government has never felt any interest in promoting the immigration of their people to this country. and that but for the passage of the Scott act of 1888 (for which I voted. and I have never regretted it) the Chinese Government would have very gladly put additional stipulations in the treaty looking to the prevention of their citizens coming to this country. That statement. whatever it is worth. has been published in the North American Review. which came out in the last day or two.
