In that very connection I desire to call the gentlemans attention to the report that was spoken of in the newspapers. which was presented in the British Parliament some months ago. with reference to the condition of the coolies in the. South African gold fields. The people of California have always maintained that the oriental has vices which contamilate the white race. and the report which was presented in the British Parliamlent showed that the coolies il South Africa were so vicious in morals and indulged in vices so abhorrent to our civilization that the report was proclaimed to be absolutely unprintable. That shows conclusively that the people of California. who are thrown in direct contact with these Asiatics. are not in error in their estimate of the morality of the oriental..
