Clergymen oppose Chinese enumeration bill in Congress
The Rev Dr Griffis and two other clergy addressed the Chinese question denouncing the census bill to enumerate Chinamen and restrict emigration. They argued the measure violates the Burlingame treaty and harms civil and missionary interests, urging broader, Christian inclusion and national restraint. A New York meeting of major missionary groups then voiced strong opposition to the bill, warning it endangers treaty rights and missionaries in China.
