Those remarks interested me greatly. Probably no part of the United States is more conscious of the existence of that menace than are the people of the Pacific coast. They realize fully that whether they stay at home and devote their energies to production there or whether they immigrate to this country and devote their energies to production here the Japanese are bound to be a great menace. but the people of California. for whom I undertake to speak. if they are to meet that menace. prefer to meet it on the soil of Japan rather than on our own soil. In obedience to a popular demand there were introduced in this House early in the session two billsone by Mr. McKINLAY. of the Second district of California. and one by myselfhaving for their object the extension of the provisions of the Chineseexclusion acts to embrace the Japanese and Koreans.
