That is precisely my view. and upon that I stand. although I differ from the Senator in the argument I am making against this whole body of legislation. Miore than that can be done.

The complaint is not. as I understand it. that the Chinese through the country. in the orange groves. the vineyards. and wheat fields and mines are an unmixed evil. but it is their conglomeration in the great city of the coast. at the Golden Gate. that is objected to. We might under the compendious and universal power which the Supreme Court has confirmed in Congress. pass an act that all Chinese found living in San Francisco shall be subject to deportation. There would be sense and humanity in that. if controlled by judicial processes. It would drive that idle class back home or out Into the surrounding country. where.
