a. 1854, q Restriction Act was passed
In the colonies Of New South Wales
and Victoria, and these acts were
amended from time 4 to time, being
made more stringent in their opera
ton. Notwithstanding the harshness
of the laws passed, in 1851 there were
12,9S8 Chinese in New South Wales,
and 24,7s2 in Victoria, constituting
over II per cent Of the adult male
population Of those colonies. Z
Wherever the Chinese go, the essx -
perience Of white working men are
the same. The Chinaman and Japan

a prominent suffering from Asiatic
competition, "As to patriotism, there
lis nothing In it selling goods u it, is
pocketisn.' The work below the rate
Of wages, established by the govern
1nent board, and the report. of a New
South Wales Royal Commission stated
that Ito stop this, unless there. be an
inspector to each Asiatic, seems i'm
possible" The Asiatic defies the law
with the quiet pertinacity peculiar to
the race, and there has yet been no
method devised to compel an observ-
ance of the most primitive sanitary
laws. " .-..~+<., 'sl~. ,4'.s- ~. :
During the past few years an earn
est and honest enforcement of the
exclusion laws has decreased the
Chinese to about 1000, but Japanese
have crept in until there are now
about $1,000. while the Hindoos and
Cingalese have about an equal num-
Der. This IS in striking contrast tt
the operation Of our exclusion laws.
