A VANISHED BUGABOO.

II URING the whole of the past and
| fall fear of possible reopening of this
- country to unrestricted Chinese immigration
has been upon a considerable portion Of the people.
The Chinese Minister had the floor as it were. He
began with Fourth of July speech at Philadelphia,
automatically preparing the way for sentiment IN
opposition to exclusion. Thereafter he went on at
different times to speak more boldly and to suggest
special reasons why Chinese immigration would be
beneficial to the East and to the South His utter
were taken up by influential papers in the East
and, while they not directly commended, they
were neither refuted condemned. Consequently
there was good reason the surface OF things to
fear that the fight for exclusion would be difficult
and the victory by certain.
The poll of Congress by The Call correspondent
at Washington shows that after all there was more
talk than danger in the diplomacy Of the astute Chi
nese Minister Public sentiment all over the coun-
try has been too firmly formed to be shaken by his
specious arguments concerning the advantages of
Chinese labor to the South or Chinese trade to the
East. The arguments of the Minister were taken in
the East good subjects for midsummer discussion,
and special interest given to them by the fact
that they came from Chinaman capable OF making
rot only witty dinner speeches at American BAN
quets but frstclass Fourth of Tuly oration. The
effect of them, however, virtually nothing The
people remained steadfast in the resolve that Amerl-
can workngmen shall not be exposed in their
homes to the competition of Chinese, and that re-
solve is well understood by Congressman of all par
ties
The firm declaration in the Presidents message in
favor of the immediate re-enactent of the exclusion
law amended to make it entirely effective, taken
together with the declarations Of members of Con-
gress, puts an end to all fears that may have been
felt upon the subject 1t is clear the American
people have had ample experience with race
problems and are not going to expose themselves de-
liberatey to the coming of another. Chinese ex-
cuson bill will be passed and it will be so drawn as
to provide for exclusion the permanent policy of
the country
Such being the situation there is no need to send
delegation to Washington, need to raise money
defray its expenses The fight for exclusion has been
won and the issue is settled We shall have better
law on the subject than before, and the only
thing required of the people in future will be to see
that it is strictly and honestly enforced
