RrroErrR-I hope that the party may always
continue 10 he equally clear and determinate in
its views Of public questions. Nothing Weakens

rer. Have You formed YOUR opinions upon
Chinese immigri'i-u.
JUDGE G.-les sir, ny opinions upon that
subject are well ma;urel. And SO are those Of
the party managers who suggest to the masses
the ou.nions they are 10 profess. We believe
with Senator Cassery that the Chinese should
not be allowed to come near our shores to bring
their .arruot civilization and to force white
'qborers to starye And we believe with the
Louisiana Democrats, that it Is advisable to IN
traluce chelu.- labor into the country to lessen
the cost If production at the South. And we
believe with the New York Democratic Conyen-
iir tlet foreigners should not be admitted to
compete Hi.h home lablrcrs, to crowd them out
Of tie market And We believe and always have
believed that immigration should be encouraged
ana tbat immigrants should be protected when
.Iey reach 0gT shores.
