The Territory is near the Pacific coast. The first influx of miners now in the country. and those that will go there in the early stages of the development of the country. are the adventurous spirits such as everywhere flock to the great discoveries of the precious metals. Later will come the era of the quartzmining corporations. and unless restrained by powerful organizations of the white miners. the importation of Mongolians from the Pacific coast will ensue. Sir. this statute. as construed by judges such as those who invented government by injunction. would brand as a crime the angry protest and righteous resistance of such a programme and render comparatively easy the substitution of human vermin for the brave fellows who. having braved the elements and risked their lives in the development of Alaska. have the right to expect fair wages. Mr.
