I have never taken any stock in such talk. I have always felt that the good common sense of the two nations would assert itself and tht a solution would be found which would be creditable alike to the people of our own Government and the Government of Japan. f believe such a programme is now fairly under way and that there is every ptrospect for an early settlement of the muchdiscussed question. And in its solution I hope the question of the exclusion of Japanese coolies will likewise be determined. It bas been generally believed on the Pacific coast that the manufacttrers of this country are the most pronounced opponents to the enactment of exclusion laws. If that be true. let me say to those manufacturers that the fear of the sale of a few bolts of cotton cloth is not a sufficient argument with which to answer the cry of the Cacasian population of the Pacific coast against being overwhelmed by the yellow and brown hordes from the shores of Asia.
