As ro cnlnrsE EXCLUSION.

There Is good deal Of misunderstanding as to the
real facts Of the Chinese exclusion act There Is only oe
reason why this country dscrmnatos against the Chi
says the San Francisco Chronicle Il II that 80 very
few OF desirable class seek entrance into this country
much less desire 20 make the United States their per
manent habatlon. Almost all OF them Of the cooiie
class willing to work for much less than American labor
ers can afford 10 accept sending their money home every
month and adding pothing the growth OF this country
In any way.
Experienced inspectors declare that even OF those
who seek entrance under the limitations OF the exclusion
law on the ground that they educators scientists
or are otherwise entitled exemption from the law
many are found upon investigation TO be merely coolies
coached for the purpose OF evasion.
TIE class that the exclusion act keeps out Is distinct
lively detrimental TO this country For this reason China
has no good ground 20 rotaate against this country Am
orleans who 80 TO China not OF corresponding
10 the Chinese who come 10 this country
There Is vesy strong suspicion to put II mildly that
most OF the recent agitation against exclusion has been
conceived qngeRedered and promoted by railway and
steamship companies that the business that would
result from the repeal OF the exclusion law and also that
the boycott movement in China direct result OF this
artificial agitation Aside from less evidence In
the case the theory that the railway and steamship com.
panies behind the agitation Is entirely plausible be-
cause Il harmonizes with their policies Ia other affairs
But there Is little danger that the bars will be- put
down The reason for keeping them up are too strong
And as for the boycott n China as a government really
encourages this policy the United states can 90 to Japan
Tor most everything Il now buys in China And there
would be particular reason for doing this view Of any
hgratude that China might show FOR all that the United
states has done for the preservation OF rs territorial and
political integrity.
