Chairman. to any legislation in this country that lowers the standard of labor or the laborer. It is the testimony and the experience of the representatives and people of California and other localities that have been made the dumping ground of these harlots and criminals that they as well as the merchant class of Chinamen are not attracted by the forms of our Government. have no sympathy with our institutions. no intelligent appreciation of the American Womanhood. that they bring with them to this country a deepseated moral leprosy (worse than the physical leprosy that they leave behind) which tarnishes American society. undermines American civilization. and is detrimental to the morality and progress of our people. For these and other reasons I favor the proposed legislation and in so doing I am quite sure I reflect the sentiments of my constituents. because we only fix a standard for immigrants that we require of our own people. and cast no reflection upon the better class of the Chinese population and offer no offense to the Chinese Government.
