The organization known as the Boxers is the offspring of patriotism. Its underlying idea is the theory of this bill. "Exclude the foreign devils. China for the Chinese." cries the Chinese Boxer. "Exclude the Chinese. America for the Americans." says my distinguished colleague. the chairman of the Committee on Immigration. and to a large extent I sympathize with him. If he will strike out the word " Chinese " in the first paragraph of this bill and add to it the words "during the term of five years." making it ekclnde all importation of labor. I could adopt its eccentricities and vote for it. panicky and tumultuous as it is.
