ROANOKE, VA, MAY II, 1893.
THE CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.

Five justices of the United States Su-
preme Court having upheld the cons.itu-
tionality Of the Geary Chinese exclusion
act, the question arises, how will 1t be
enforced? 1t was supposed that the
Chinese here would consent to comply
with the conditions of the law, and the
deportation would be limited to those
who came here after the law had taken
effect and could not, therefore, qualify
as American residents. As, however,
under the advice of the six companies,
nearly all the Chinese have refused to
register, what can be done with them?
There are too many to send to China,
and yet, under the law, the Government
is bound to send them there.
President Cleveland has suspended
the law pending decision Of the SUI
preme Court. We do not see but that
it is quite as much within his authority
to suspend it for longer period until
Congress can act on the matter and per-
hsps give the Chinese, who were misled
by the bad advice of the ak companies,
chance to be duly registered as the
law requires for continued residence in
this country.
Moreover, suppose the government OF
China should prohibit the landing OF
expelled Chinese at any port of the
empire. Suppose their return to the
British possession OF Hong Kong, from
which many of them emigrated, should
be prohibited. What is this country to
do in that case with its host of exiles?
Then, again, suppose China should
become incensed at the fragrant breach
Of our treaty stipulation and retaliate
by driving American residents out of
that country? That is supposition by
no means improbable. In short, the
enforcement of the law bids fair to en-
counter difficulties as perplexing as its
provisions are Unprecedented
