Mr. Chairman. your committee took into consideration that that question was beyond the scope of present legislation. Heartily in sympathy with the protection of our operatives on land. we determined to put into this measure the restrictions we have oil the immigration of the Chinese. I will now come to the other point. which was the only class that the gentleman attacked in regard to the provision that has been laid down in restricting them from coming into this country. and that was the term "teacher." He showed the high state of general education in China. that everyone was compelled to go to school. and therefore it was likely that these people would come into this country in the form of teachers. Why. sir. in the interrogatory I put to him he involved the institutions of our country in bad faith. if they would enter into collusion for the migration of these people.
