They have got in here as alleged merchants. (P. 104.) If more evidence is needed to convince the average American citizen that the administration of our exclusion laws has been a farce. the tabulations yet to be submitted should answer that purpose. . The following table shows that while the census report indicates an appreciable decrease of Chinese in the western division of the United States between the years 1890 and 1900. the fact Is also strongly in evidence that every other division. including the outlying territories of Hawaii and Alaska. received a large increase in their Chinese population. and evidence Is not lacking to prove the assertion that the Chinese in the North Atlantic division have more than doubled since 1900. Reference to the statements originating with the Bureau of Immigration. and which are too numerous to indicate by quotation signs. warrants this conclusion: TABLE III.-Chincse in the United States ia 1890 and 1900. by geographitca divisions.
