The President did not want to see it. but he got it after a time. and he approved the bill thathe nowrefuses to enforce. Thatis the starter. Time passed. and it was seen to be necessary to find means to enforce the Scott exclusion act. for it did not exclude the continual coming of Chinese. and the Geary act was passed. which provided the only practical means to make the law effective. There are some extracts which I would like to read from the RECORD. but I have not time now. showing that you only appropriated $A0o00 for the putting of that law into operation. and for other purposes. Many of you will remember the debate on that. and the chairman of the Committee on Appropriations. with the assent of the Democratic party here. agreed. and you will find it in the RECORD. that they would make the necessary appropriations to carry that bill intoeffect in December last.
