I will be glad to vote for a much more radical amendment. I have not the time to point out the infamous features of the Geary bill. so called. It proposes to collar. and label. and number like dogs 85.000 Chinese residents of this country. If similar treatment were accorded to American residents in China it would result in a declaration of war inside of thirty days. The restriction of Chinese immigration could and should have been brought about in a legitimate and proper way. by opening negotiations with the imperiai government of that vast empire. through the regular and legitimate channel of the State Department.
