In it is found the reason of the language used in the memorial from the California Convention to this body. expressing their great satisfaction with the operation of the law. In our effort to exclude Chinese laborers from our country the Chinese Government is in full accord with us. The preamble of the treaty of 1894. as has already been stated. gives expression to Chinas desire to prohibit the emigration of such laborers. The operation of existing law has been most satisfactory. I find that during the last seven years there has not only been a decrease in the number of -Chinese in California. but there have not been brought into this country such vast numbers of them as the discussion in this case would seem to indicate.
