TRADE RETALIATION FECT Secretary Taffs Declaration Indi cates Thaf President Intends to Kclleve Chinese Merchants ' , From Humiliation. 7M How to keep Chinese laborers out of trio United States, yet to admit Chinese -mer chants, students, travelers, teachers and other Intelligent subjects of the Celestial Empire, is a problem before the Ameri can Government, for on account of the harsh operation of the exclusion law, Chi nese are about to shut out trade from this country, thus to retaliate on venders of American goods, for humiliation of their countrymen. In consequence, diplomacy between China and America has been strained for several months, and American traders aro oecomlng alarmed. The uneasiness is felt in Portland commercial circles as much, as anywhere, on the Pacific Coast. Ex porters of wheat, flour and lumber are raising a clamor for better .treatment at high-grade Chinese. Aim of exclusion Law. The policy of exclusion has become so firmly rpoted in American public senti ment that few or no residents of Portland expect to see It displaced, but there is. a widespread demand for amendment of the law so as to make access to this cenmtry easy for Intelligent,. Chinese, especially of the commercial classes, and yet "not let down the bars against coolie hordes. This is the aim of the exclusion law as it stands, but on account, of the. system of enforcement" and the numerous frauds at tempted by Chinese laborers to gain en trance under the guise of merchants. high-grade Chinese are subjected to de tention at the ports of entry, humiliating- examinations, and sometimes arbitrary and. Insulting treatment at the hands of Immigration inspectors. The exclusion laws enacted since 18S3 have been "re-enacted, extended and con tinued, without modification, limitation or condition," by an act of Congress of April 27,-1904, and by the same act those laws were applied to the "island territory un der the jurisdiction of the United States." Those laws prohibit Chinese immigration from such territory to the mainland of the United States. Exclusion from the , Hawaiian and the Philippine Islands has incensed- the Chinese against Americans still more. Chinese Diplomats Busy. Chinese diplomats have sought for bet ter treatment of their countrymen through treaty negotiation, all to no avail. Last December they suffered to lapse a treaty, which had been In force ten years, which provided ihat "the coming of Chinese laborers to the United States shall be ab solutely prohibited,"-except that "the pro visions of this convention shall not affect the right, at present enjoyed, of Chinese subjects, being officials, teachers, stu dents, merchants or travelers for curios ity or pleasure, but not laborers, of com ing to the United States and residing therein." Thl3 treaty the Chinese government re fused to renew, for the alleged reason that Its terms were not lived tip to in the exclusion laws and the immigration policy of the United States. By a treaty with China of 1SS0. the United States Govern ment may "regulate, limit or suspend" the coming or residence of Chinese labor ers, "but may not absolutely prohibit it"; however, the wards last quoted have been amended by various exclusion laws, there by adding to the Indignation of the Chi nese government, for it Is held by that government that the exclusion laws, since, expiration of the treaty of 1894. are In con travention of other treaty stipulations. conspicuously tho stipulations in the treaty of 1SS0, whereby the United States States Is bound" not to "absolutely pro hibit" Immigration of Chinese laborers. Coolie Labor Question. The Chinese government does not object to America's exclusion of coolie laborers; In fact. In 1SD4. that government made a treaty with thla country conceding their exclusion. But 'because the United States has rigorously enforced exclusion and Chi nese merchants ' have been subected to severe treatment on.fcccount of the frauds practiced by their humble-countrymen, to defeat the exclusion laws, the Chinese are Incensed. Eresldent Roosevelt is in favor of an amendment of the exclusion law, for the benefit of high-class Chinese, and Secre tary of War Taft last Thursday denounc ed the operation of the law In strong terms, and declared that the Pacific Coast wqs prejudiced on the subject and was making unreasonable demands. Mr. Taft proclaimed that "Justice and cour tesy" should be extended "to a people) from whom we are deriving "and are like ly to derive such Immense benefit In the way of International trade." The Secretary said further: "Is it just that for the purpose of ex cluding or. preventing perhaps 100 Chinese coolies from dipping into this country against the law, we should subject an equal number of Chinese merchants and students of high character to an examin ation of such an . Inquisitorial, humiliat ing; Insulting, and physically uncomfort able character as to discourage altogeth er the coming of merchants and stu dents?" Asiatic Association Acts. Last week, the matter was taken befors the President by the American Asiatic As sociation, representing the cotton textile and the Iron and steel trade of the United States. The association protested against such enforcement of the exclusion law as might hazard American trade In China. In Its protest the Association said: "The. treatment accorded by the immi gration officers of this Government to the exempt classes of Chinese visiting- our country is more oppressive than either the letter or the spirit of the law require. Moreover, the plainest principles of in ternal conditions demand that the law shall be made more liberal, either by amendment or the negotiation of a , new treaty or by both." President Roosevelt promised to tak the matter under consideration. andto do all he could to remedy the difficulty. Th
