True. Japan contends that her law is aimed at all foreigners. whereas the laws adopted by the State of California refer only to those foreigners who are prohibited by the law.s of the United States from securing the privilegeof citizenship in this country. The student of history will find that Japanese immigration to California and the Pacific coast really did not begin until 1891 or 1892. The number of Japanese who had gone to the west coast of America -up to that time was so few that they might be referred to as a negligible quantity. At that time a great deal of foreign money had been invested in California in the purchase of mines and mining properties. foreigners had purchased large tracts of land known as ranches for the breeding of cattle and horses and the raising of wheat. fruit. and purposes of similar character.
