To Rutherford B. Hayes, President
Of the United States, Washington d. Co.
At a meeting OF the Executive Com
mittee Of the Republican State Central
Committee Of California, held to day, 1t
was unanimously resolved that the Presi-
dent be respectfully Dut most urgently re-
quested to sign theabill for the limitation
Of Chinese immigration, as such immi-
grafton is believed by the Committee and
those whom it represents to be not emily
prejudicial but disastrous to the welfare
of this State"
Signed, ALEX. g. ABEL. Chairman,
NJ. ID. BoRUCK, Secretary.
The Above action of the Executive
Committee of the State Central Com it
tee. which wes telegraphed to President
Hayes, February 25th, shows the position
of California Republicans on the China
questiun. Similar action by the Demo-
cratic State Committee might also be
taken and meet the equal Endorsement ol
members OF that party, as the question is
by no means political one on this Coast
The action of the Cham Der of Commerce,
of San Francisco, published elsewhere, is
emphatic and shows that the merchants
Of the metropolis, as well as all other
classes, are decided in their opposition to
Chinese immigration. Should President
Hayes veto the relief measure now in his
hands, the action will be almost unani-
mously repudiated by the Republican
Party on this Coast.
