Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese Immigration The question of Chinese immigration has drawn to it a degree of attention since the immigrants began to land in this country thirty years ago. Which can hardly be explained by their numbers. Their conduct. Or their capacity. The total arrivals from China during a quar ter of a century have not equaled the number of per sons which have landed at New York from Europe in six months during most of those same years. Their behavior, under great provocation, has excited no com motion nor has their learning. Power. Skill. Or bigotry been such as to give any reasonable ground for alarm. It is not easy to account for the excitement on rational grounds, or to explain the many unfounded statements against the Chinese which have passed current, even after their inaccuracy has been shown. A good deal of the discussion has arisen from the different views taken as to what might grow out of their presence or increase. Some, drawing on their fears for their facts, regard them as the first ripple of an overwhelming ood of ignorance, poverty. Heathenism, and vice; while others. Speaking from experience. After trying them in various capacities, assure us that the Chinese are docile. Temperate. Thrifty. And industrious. And have great ca pacity for improvement.4 C/ziucsc Immigration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Congressional Policy of Chinese Immigration: Or Legislation Relating to Chinese Immigration to the United States While an undergraduate at Peking University in 1905 the writ er's attention was first attracted to the governmental policy of the United States in the exclusion of Chinese by the incident of the concerted boycott of American goods in China. Coming over to San Francisco three years ago, the writer had the privilege though not accorded in a pleasant way, being detained and held for observation - of visiting the Detention Station at Angel Island, and there saw the actual conditions and treatment the unfortu nate Chinese were meeting with. These two insignificant inci dents aroused his interest in this question and furnished him the resolve to make a study of it while here. Several books and many pamphlets and articles have been writ ten in this country on the question of Chinese immigration; but of the writers, almost all treat the subject from a practical standpoint and make their strongest arguments turn primarily on the point of economic and social interests of this country, leaving untouched the more fundamental and vital question of right or wrong involved in this policy. Moreover, some writers seem to think that the Chinese in this country are, without excep tion, innocent victims of oppression; and others hold this gov ernment absolutely justified in her legislation taken to exclude this undesirable element. The mutually contributory condition. Which was probably the real cause for this unpleasant event, seems to have been lost sight of. The present study is made with these two points constantly in view.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese Immigration and the Physiological Causes of the Decay of a Nation The time to urge and impress the mind with the necessity of preserving the purity of race, is while the race is new, and thus close the door to amalgamations while the stock is pure and young. To permit the ingress of an inferior race is to strike at self-destruction. A government to protect its people should strive to preserve the purity of the race; and, irrespective of political theories, should guard it from every amalgamation with inferior types.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is truly a nation of immigrants, or as the poet Walt Whitman once said, a nation of nations. Spanning the time from when the Europeans first came to the New World to the present day, the new Immigration to the United States set conveys the excitement of these stories to young people. Beginning with a brief preface to the set written by general editor Robert Asher that discusses some of the broad reasons why people came to the New World, both as explorers and settlers, each book's narrative highlights the themes, people, places, and events that were important to each immigrant group. In an engaging, informative manner, each volume describes what members of a particular group found when they arrived in the United States as well as where they settled. Historical information and background on the various communities present life as it was lived at the time they arrived. The books then trace the group's history and current status in the United States. Each volume includes photographs and illustrations such as passports and other artifacts of immigration, as well as quotes from original source materials. Box features highlight special topics or people, and each book is rounded out with a glossary, timeline, further reading list, and index.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bibliography of the Chinese Question in the United States The accompanying work includes in books, pamphlets, and similar publications, the literature of Chinese immigration and its various phases. Articles in the newspaper and periodical press have not been included, such references being sufficiently numerous to form a separate monograph of considerable volume. With few exceptions the many documents published by the United States government have also been omitted. The list prepared in the Library of Congress under the direction of Mr. Griffin is apparently so complete that further work in that direction is rendered unnecessary. Endeavor has been made to include all references possible, and while without doubt some have been overlooked, it is hoped that such omissions have been few and unimportant.
