It is the people of that section of our country who have to deal with this Chinese question. For years they have been face to face with it. and they understandit in allpf its phases. Those people come to us and they say that Chinese immigration and Chinese settlement upon the Pacific coast involves not only a political but a social question. and that the presence in any great numbers of Chinamen there threatens not only the peace and order and tranquillity of society but threatens their very civilization. I can not understand. and the people of the South can not understand. the prejudice of the people of the Pacific coast toward the Chinaman both as a man and as a laborer. We do not share in it.
