Abstract: The Chinese in California, 1850-1925 illustrates nineteenth and early twentieth century Chinese immigration to California
through about 8,000 images and pages of primary source materials. Included are photographs, original art, cartoons and other
illustrations; letters, excerpts from diaries, business records, and legal documents; as well as pamphlets, broadsides, speeches,
sheet music, and other printed matter. These documents describe the experiences of Chinese immigrants in California, including
the nature of inter-ethnic tensions. They also document the specific contributions of Chinese immigrants to commerce and business,
architecture and art, agriculture and other industries, and cultural and social life in California. Chinatown in San Francisco
receives special treatment as the oldest and largest community of Chinese in the United States. Also included is documentation
of smaller Chinese communities throughout California, as well as material reflecting on the experiences of individuals. Although
necessarily selective, such a large body of materials presents a full spectrum of representation and opinion. The materials
in this online compilation are drawn from collections at The Bancroft Library, University of California Berkeley; The Ethnic
Studies Library, University of California Berkeley; and The California Historical Society, San Francisco.

Scope and Content
The Chinese in California 1850-1925 is a compilation of selected holdings from collections housed in the archives and special
collections of The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley; The Ethnic Studies Library, University of California,
Berkeley; and the California Historical Society, San Francisco. Presenting approximately 8000 images, this virtual archive
makes accessible material related to the history of the Chinese people in California between 1850 and 1925. The materials
were selected to illustrate broad topical themes:
- Chinese and Westward Expansion
- San Francisco's Chinatown
- Architectural Space
- Business and Politics
- Community
- Outsiders Looking In
- Chinese/Chinese-American Communities
- Agriculture, Fishing, and Related Industries
- Anti-Chinese Movement and Chinese Exclusion
- Sentiment Concerning the Chinese: Illustrations from Periodicals
The materials selected are drawn from a variety of archival collections, compiled by institutions and libraries with varying
missions. Many of the collections have distinctive histories of their own. In some cases entire collections have been included;
more often a selection of materials relating to the Chinese in California has been selected from a collection with broader
scope. It is our hope that The Chinese in California presents a balanced perspective on a tumultuous and changing history
of this community in California. Major issues explored in these records include the Chinese contribution to California and
the American West in the 19th and early 20th centuries; the rampant anti-Chinese sentiment encountered by these immigrants,
eventually leading to the federal Chinese Exclusion Act of 1892 (repealed in 1943); and settlement and development in various
communities, including San Francisco's Chinatown, which remains the largest Chinatown in the United States.
The materials presented in The Chinese in California are only a small part of the wealth of historical and archival materials
documenting this topic at participating institutions. Users should note the source of the materials found on this site and
contact the holding libraries or archives for further information.
Repository Information
The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley
The Bancroft Library is the primary special collections library at the University of California, Berkeley. One of the largest
and most heavily used libraries of manuscripts, rare books, and unique materials in the United States, Bancroft supports major
research and instructional activities and plays a leading role in the development of the University's research collections.
The Bancroft Library's holdings include more than 500,000 volumes, 50,000,000 manuscript items (some 35,000 linear feet),
2,800,000 photographs and other pictorial materials, 43, 000 microforms, and 23,000 maps.
The Bancroft Collection, the Library's largest resource, documents the history of North America from western plains states
to the Pacific Coast and from Panama to Alaska from the late eighteenth century onward. The collection was initially assembled
by Hubert Howe Bancroft, who settled in San Francisco during the gold rush era, becoming a bookstore owner and publisher.
Beginning in the 1860s he gathered materials for his vast publication project of a series of histories of western North American,
in the end numbering 39 volumes. Within a decade he had amassed 16,000 volumes. Purchased by The University of California,
Berkeley in 1905, the collection documents, through primary and secondary resources, the economic, political, social, and
cultural history of this vast region. The greatest emphasis in the collection is on California and Mexico, with the history
of most other Western American states collected up to 1900, except such broad, overlapping issues as water and the environment,
which are collected without regard to date. Also represented are early Pacific voyages of exploration and discovery; continental
expansion west of the Mississippi, including the Louisiana Purchase, fur trade, overland journeys to the West; Hawaii and
the Philippines, British Columbia and the Yukon.
Some of the topical strengths include materials relating to Spanish/ Mexican California, the California Gold Rush and the
settlement that followed, urban and rural development, particularly in northern California, the environmental movement in
the American West, and local, state, and national political figures. The Bancroft Collection richly documents nineteenth and
early twentieth century Chinese immigration to California and the West. Included in the collection is much that reflects the
social life, culture, and commerce of these immigrants as well as the varying responses of other communities and individuals
to the Chinese. The primary source materials include photographs, original art, cartoons and other illustrations; letters,
diaries, business records, and legal documents; as well as pamphlets, broadsides, speeches, sheet music, and other printed
matter.
The Ethnic Studies Library, The University of California, Berkeley
The Ethnic Studies Library contains one of the most comprehensive and unique Asian American Studies Collections in the United
States, including materials on the cultural, political, and socio-economic life of Asian Americans and Chinese Overseas. Aside
from developing a core collection on the identified Asian American groups--Asian Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean
and Southeast Asian American (Cambodian, Lao, Lao Hmong, Lao Mien, Thai and Vietnamese Americans), the Asian American Collections
also contain the largest Chinese American archival collection in the world.
Chinese American Archives contains manuscripts, diaries, correspondence, newsletters and other primary source materials, including
the largest collection of biographies on prominent people in different fields and active community members. This is the most
extensive collection of its kind. The collection also contains newspapers collections in Chinese and English dating from 1880
to the present; an extensive slide collection on Chinese American history; hundreds of photographs on historic events; and
a numerous historical posters by Asian American artists announcing community events. There are over hundred unique archival
collections including the collection of Dr. Margaret Chung, the first Chinese American Woman Physician (1916) and the documents
of the Chinese Empire Reform Association (it also called Baohuang Hui) on the political activities of Chinese Overseas, pa
house. Also included are The Chinese Historical Society of America Collections, The Ray Jones Collection (Jones was a fervent
Chinese anarchist in the United States), and University of California at Berkeley Alumni Collection, including collections
from Mr. Yuk Ow, Mr. Him Mark Lai, and Professor Judy Yung.
California Historical Society, San Francisco
The California Historical Society (CHS) was founded in 1871, and designated by the state legislature in 1973 as the official
historical society of California. Its mission is to engage the public's interest and participation in collecting, preserving,
and presenting art, artifacts, and written materials relevant to the history of California and to support historical research,
publication, and educational activities. The Society's holdings include research collections of library, archival and photography
materials, as well as a fine arts collection with more than 5000 works of art that document the history of California in both
the 19th and 20th centuries. Plans for the library were developed after the Society reorganized in 1922, and C. Templeton
Crocker (1884-1948), eager to find a permanent home for his sizable collection of Californiana, placed it on permanent loan
to the Society in 1923. Now owned by CHS, the library's collections today are built upon the strengths of Crocker's collection.
Housed in the North Baker Research Library at the Society's headquarters in San Francisco, the Society's research collections
of primary and secondary resources include over 35,000 volumes of books and pamphlets, more than 4,000 manuscript collections,
and some 500,000 photographs documenting California's social, cultural, economic, and political history and development, along
with a large collection of maps, ephemera, posters, broadsides, periodicals, and newspapers relating to the history of California
and the West from the early explorations to the present time.
The library's collection of rare books is notable for its 17th, 18th, and 19th century volumes on early explorations of the
West and the Pacific, and many early books relating to the Mission period and the Gold Rush in California. Its manuscript
collections include diaries of overland travelers as well as trips to California around the Horn and over the Isthmus of Panama.
Its photography collections represent unique holding of many of California's most prestigious photographers, including Carleton
Watkins, Eadweard Muybridge and Arnold Genthe. Of particular note among the many images that document the social, political,
and cultural evolution of California are Genthe's street scenes of the San Francisco Chinese community in the late 1800s.
The Library is also home to the Kemble Collections on Western Printing and Publishing, one of the most complete collections
of materials documenting printing and publishing in the western United States, consisting of more than 4,000 books, extensive
pamphlet and ephemeral materials, photographs, periodicals and manuscript material. The research collections at CHS include
many sources reflecting the social life, culture, and commerce of Chinese immigrants as well as the varying responses of other
communities and individuals to the Chinese.
Chinese and Westward Expansion
Scope and Content Note
While the west coast of North America was known to the Chinese, in particular those working as sailors,
before the Gold Rush, our story begins in 1850, as the documentation from the Gold Rush provides the
starting point with which to build a more substantial narrative. Most Chinese immigrants entered
California through the port of San Francisco. From San Francisco and other ports, many sought their
fortunes in other parts of California. The Chinese formed part of the diverse gathering of peoples from
throughout the world who contributed to the economic and population explosion that characterized the
early history of the state of California. The Chinese who emigrated to the United States at this time were
part of a larger exodus from southeast China searching for better economic opportunities and fleeing a
situation of political corruption and decline. Most immigrants came from the Pearl River Delta in
Guangdong (Canton) Province.
Chinese immigrants proved to be productive and resourceful contributors to a multitude of industries and
businesses. The initial group of Chinese argonauts sought their livelihood in the gold mines, calling
California Gam Saan or Gold Mountain. For the mining industry, they built many of the flumes and
roads, allowing for easier access and processing of the minerals being extracted. Chinese immigrants
faced discrimination immediately upon arrival in California. In mining, they were forced to work older
claims, or to work for others. In the 1850s, the United States Constitution reserved the right of
naturalization for white immigrants to this country. Thus, Chinese immigrants lived at the whim of local
governments with some allowed to become naturalized citizens, but most not. Without this right, it was
difficult to pursue livelihoods. For example, Chinese immigrants were unable to own land or file mining
claims. Also in the 1850s, the California legislature passed a law taxing all foreign miners. Although
stated in general terms, it was enforced chiefly against the Mexicans and the Chinese through 1870. This
discrimination occurred in spite of the fact that the Chinese often contributed the crucial labor necessary
to the mining enterprise.
Discriminatory legislation forced many Chinese out of the gold fields and into low-paying, menial, and
often arduous jobs. In many cases, they took on the most dangerous and least desirable components of
work available. They worked on reclaiming marshes in the Central Valley so that the land could become
agriculturally productive. They built the stone bridges and fences, constructed roads, and excavated
storage areas for the wine industry in Napa and Sonoma counties. The most impressive construction feat
of Chinese Americans was their work on the western section of the transcontinental railroad. Chinese-
American workers laid much of the tracks for the Central Pacific Railroad through the foothills and over
the high Sierra Nevada, much of which involved hazardous work with explosives to tunnel through the
hills. Their speed, dexterity, and outright perseverance, often in brutally cold temperatures and heavy
snow through two record breaking winters, is a testimony to their outstanding achievements and
contributions to opening up the West.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library and the California
Historical Society.

San Francisco's Chinatown - Architectural Space
Scope and Content Note
San Francisco's Chinatown grew organically around Portsmouth Plaza, the city's first public square and
civic center. With the wealthy residential neighborhood of Nob Hill to the south and the financial district
to the north and east, Chinatown was centrally located on valuable real estate, a fact that contributed to
many efforts to relocate the community or eradicate it all together. However, the community remained at
its original site, continuing to expand its borders in all directions.
"Old" Chinatown, the enclave before 1906, was the subject of extensive political debate for city
politicians and officials who often deemed the area an eyesore and a health hazard. True, its wooden
buildings and tenement houses were far from aesthetically pleasing - as photographs and artwork
from the period attest - but they were ironically a reflection of the rapid growth San Francisco
underwent during and shortly after the Gold Rush of 1849-50. Structures were built at an astonishing
rate, the buildings of Chinatown among them. And as was the case with explosive urban development,
many ethnic denizens were left with the out-of-date residential and business areas that more privileged
residents left behind.
After the fire that followed the 1906 earthquake reduced Chinatown to smoldering ashes, there was a
movement by the Reconstruction Committee to move the Chinese to the outer reaches of the Richmond
District, far away from its prime location at the heart of the city. In a concerted effort to save their
community from being uprooted, Chinese leaders convinced municipal leaders and the neighborhood's
white landlords that the "New" Chinatown should be rebuilt in a distinctive oriental style that would
attract more tourism and business, thereby boosting San Francisco's economy as whole. The results were
the familiar curved eaves, colorful street lanterns, recessed balconies, and gilded facades that are
instantly associated with Chinatown. Most importantly, the enclave was rebuilt at its original locale.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library, the Ethnic Studies
Library, and the California Historical Society.

San Francisco's Chinatown - Community
Scope and Content Note
Chinatown was a tight-knit community whose residents were familiar with one another. Parents allowed
their children, who were highly cherished (especially since there were so few of them due to the early
lack of women and families), to roam the streets without supervision during the day. The sense that all of
Chinatown was a children's playground was deftly captured by the photographer Arnold Genthe, who
considered Chinese children some of his favorite subjects.
However, the day was not filled only by play. Chinese culture considers education one of life's most
important assets and Chinatown's children were schooled in a wide array of subjects. Their textbooks
cover not only the traditional areas of mathematics, grammar, and social studies, but Russian literature
and Confucian philosophy, among other topics. Instructors included Chinese scholars and teachers as
well as Protestant missionaries who sought to convert the Chinese to Christianity through educational
assimilation.
Being segregated from the rest of San Francisco did not mean that Chinatown was isolated from the rest
of the world. There was a constant stream of communication with mainland China and other parts of the
United States. Separated families and friends wrote to each other on a consistent basis, and their letters
relate the difficulty of loved ones spending a great deal of time apart. Chinese-language newspapers
provided another means of communication, keeping people informed of happenings in California and
around the globe. A number of dailies competed for the Chinese reading public, but the
Chung Sai
Yat Po
was the oldest and most prominent. One of its editors, Ng Poon Chew, who ran the paper during
the early 1900s, was known as "The Chinese Mark Twain." Ng was a celebrated orator, and spoke on the
famed Chatauqua, New York, public speaking circuit.
The use of print media was not restricted to newspapers. Theaters printed daily programs of their nightly
offerings, with photographs accompanying descriptions of plays and actors. The Chinese of San
Francisco had a passion for the theater. Local players as well as stars from China performed for packed
houses with audiences consisting of both Chinese and adventurous outsiders. Other cultural activities
included literary societies, poetry clubs, and art collectives, many of which published or exhibited their
collective works.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library, the Ethnic Studies
Library, and the California Historical Society.

San Francisco's Chinatown - Business and Politics
Scope and Content Note
During the late nineteenth century, Chinese San Francisco was an entire world contained within a dozen
or so square blocks. An 1886 "Official Map of Chinatown" commissioned by the City Board of
Supervisors shows a community with all the amenities of a small city. The map designates hundreds of
dry goods' merchants, factories, groceries, restaurants, schools, temples, and entertainment
establishments - and these are only those located on the ground floor. This large proliferation of
mercantile businesses was an indication of the Chinese merchants' strength and heavy presence within
their community, with specialties ranging from perfume to pharmaceuticals, souvenirs to groceries. Their
buying and selling formed the backbone of early Chinatown's economy and their stores served as early
meeting places and sites where new immigrants could seek help; much of this aid came in the form of
money lending or employment. Merchants naturally evolved as political leaders and dominated the
benevolent associations that commanded Chinatown's political sphere.
A self-sufficient and insulated community, with its own unique government and politics, early Chinatown
was almost a separate city within greater San Francisco. Chinese who came from the same regions in
China formed district benevolent associations upon their arrival in the United States. These associations
served as social and welfare institutions where immigrants could locate people from their native districts,
socialize, receive monetary aid, and raise voices in community affairs. There were also family benevolent
associations for people with the same surnames. A resident of Chinatown often belonged to both types of
benevolent associations: one for his district, the other for his extended family.
The Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association, more commonly known as the Chinese Six
Companies, dominated the political landscape. This association was originally formed during the 1850s
by the Ning Yuen, Hop Wo, Kong Chow, Yeung Wo, Sam Yup, and Yan Wo district associations. The
Sue Hing Association was added at the turn of the century. The Six Companies was the most powerful
organization in Chinatown, authorized to speak on behalf of Chinese not only in San Francisco, but
everywhere in the United States. Its board of directors and board of presidents consisted overwhelmingly
of wealthy merchants who translated their economic good fortune into political power. The Six
Companies dealt with city, state, and national governments regarding issues of immigration and
persecution, always retaining a white attorney to be its spokesman and correspondent with the world at
large.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library, the Ethnic Studies
Library, and the California Historical Society.

San Francisco's Chinatown - Outsiders Looking In
Scope and Content Note
The exotic sights, smells, and customs of San Francisco's Chinatown drew visitors to its streets and
establishments even before its reconstruction after the 1906 earthquake and fire. Personal accounts,
published pamphlets, and thousands of photographs and pictorial ephemera reveal an extensive
fascination with the neighborhood and its people.
Among the greatest attractions to visitors to Chinatown was its "underworld," consisting of highbinders
(Chinese gang members), opium dens, and prostitution. Tourists, their interest piqued by salacious
political rhetoric, warnings from the pulpit, or sensationalized newspaper stories, clamored for guided
tours of the narrow alleys and mysterious lairs of Chinese miscreants. Enterprising guides, both white
and Chinese, readily catered to the impulse of pleasured fear, oftentimes staging the arrest of a so-called
highbinder conveniently in front of a group of sightseers or leading their charges through alleyways
replete with employees trained to vanish mysteriously when tourists neared. More straightforward
documentation of this underworld can be seen in the paperwork produced by law enforcement personnel
whose beat included Chinatown or whose job it was to prosecute alleged offenders.
Chinatown's restaurants and merchant establishments offered visitors more conventional destinations.
Surveying the surviving menus of early Chinatown, one gets a sense of an amalgamation of thoroughly
mainstream tastes with those of the Chinese: almost every restaurant appealing to tourists offers Coca-
Cola along with traditional and Americanized Cantonese dishes. Businesses stocked with imported wares
beckoned spenders through elaborate window displays. Perhaps the two most well known merchant firms
were the Sing Chong Co. & Chinese Bazaar and the Sing Fat Co., located next to each other at the
intersection of California Street and Grant Avenue. Meanwhile, those who wanted to experience Chinese
culture and religious practices firsthand headed for the theaters and the joss houses.
Tourism had always been an important element of Chinatown's economy, but after the rebuilding of the
community during the early 1900s, even more sightseers flooded into the area. Its new architectural
aesthetic made "Cathay by the Bay" seems a world apart from the rest of San Francisco, even though it
was located just blocks away from Nob Hill's austere mansions and the early skyscrapers of the financial
district. This perception of Chinatown as a foreign colony within an American city echoes even into the
twenty-first century.
No visit to San Francisco was complete without a pictorial souvenir of Chinatown. Prominent cameramen
Carleton Watkins, I. W. Taber, and Arnold Genthe were just three of the many outside photographers
who catered to the public's desire to view the Chinese community. Other visitors, however, had ulterior
motives for exploring Chinatown. City leaders, union organizers, journalists, and authors used "first-
hand" descriptions of the enclave for their own purposes, whether to drum up political support or sell
copy. Most of the time, achieving those goals involved portraying the Chinese quarter in an unflattering,
often extremely derogatory light. This negative attitude extended from sources as diverse as the San
Francisco Board of Health to independent sensationalist writers. Municipal reports, political pamphlets,
and other printed ephemeral literature reflect the widespread negativity regarding Chinatown that proved
so useful in garnering votes or capturing the American urban imagination.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library and the California
Historical Society.

Chinese/Chinese American Communities
Scope and Content Note
The Chinese brought with them to the United States traditions and practices that were integral to their
daily lives, including specific religious beliefs and rituals. The Chinese communities had temple for
worship for Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism. The community gathered together to celebrate
traditional Chinese festivals. The Chinese in California continued to observe the Lunar New Year in the
traditional manner. This important festival was celebrated with elaborate display and plenty of
exuberance. Songs, music, and theater were regular leisure activities in the community. Chinese theater
performances were important cultural events. In 1852, the first performance of Cantonese opera was held
in the American Theatre on Sansome Street, and several months later, the first Chinese theater building
was completed. Family relationships were integral to their society and by extension, things associated
with family and family members such as food, education, marriage, and funeral customs.
Chinese Americans resisted and took action against the overt discrimination enacted against them. They
brought legal cases to the courts--municipal, state, and federal--to combat discriminatory legislation and
treatment. Many Chinese also worked with other governmental institutions to protect their rights. They
also took their cases to the press. Ho Yow, Chinese Consul General in San Francisco published articles in
magazines such as the
Overland Monthly, responding publicly as a concerned individual to
discrimination.
Chinese medicine fulfilled an important need in the nineteenth century for Chinese and non-Chinese
alike. Western medicine had not yet developed the extensive drugs, anesthetics, vaccinations, or
sophisticated surgical techniques to which we have become accustomed. Thus, the Chinese
understanding of plants used for medicinal purposes was an important component of how injury and
disease were handled in the nineteenth-century American West.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library, the Ethnic Studies
Library, and the California Historical Society.

Agriculture, Fishing, and Related Industries
Scope and Content Note
Despite hostility and discrimination, Chinese continued to immigrate to California to avail themselves of
whatever opportunities awaited them. When they were prevented from mining gold in the mining
districts, they became merchants or laborers, or sought employment elsewhere. Chinese immigrants often
found work within the agricultural and fishing industries. Since most of the early Chinese immigrants
were from farming areas in China, it was natural for them to become involved in agriculture. Few of them
were able to become independent farmers because most were not citizens and thus were prevented by
local laws from owning land. However, their contributions were extensive. They reclaimed swampland in
the Sacramento Delta. Many raised vegetables and fruit that they sold door-to-door. Others were
sharecroppers or tenant farmers, who leased land and paid the landlord part of their crop. Most were
migrant farm laborers. Chinese-American farm labor was essential to the development of various crops
that required special skill and care, such as harvesting and processing olives. Chinese immigrants also
provided essential labor for development of the wine industry in California.
In coastal communities, for example in Monterey, San Diego, and San Luis Obispo counties, Chinese
inhabitants helped develop the industry for squid, abalone, shrimp, sturgeon, and various other kinds of
fish. They also processed kelp and a variety of other marine products. By the late 1880s, there were more
than two thousand Chinese in fishing camps throughout the San Francisco Bay, Monterey and San Diego
areas. Chinese fishermen ran into antagonism from white fishermen who pressured the California
legislature to pass restrictions on Chinese fishing activities. This caused hardship for the communities
and eventually the decline of Chinese fishing operations. The Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882 also
adversely affected the population of these communities.
The Chinese also provided services as laundrymen, cooks, servants, and gardeners. As early as the 1850s,
the first Chinese laundries appeared in San Francisco, and by 1870, these immigrants ran the majority of
the laundries. Chinese restaurants also became quite common, serving first the Chinese community, and
later other clients as cooks learned to prepare Western fare. Chinese also worked in textile mills
manufacturing and in shoe and cigar factories.

Library, and the California Historical Society.

Anti-Chinese Movement & Chinese Exclusion
Scope and Content Note
From the time of their arrival during the Gold Rush, the Chinese experienced discrimination and often
overt racism, and finally, exclusion from further immigration. Legislation was used against Chinese
immigrants as early as the1850 Foreign Miners' License Tax. In 1854, the California State Supreme
Court categorized Chinese with blacks and Indians, denying them there right to testify against white men
in courts of law. During the 1870s, an economic downturn resulted in serious unemployment, and led to
heightened outcries against Asian immigrants. The Chinese often became the scapegoats for business
owners who paid them low wages. This willingness to work for lower wages along with the productivity
of the Chinese workers ignited the ire of white labor in California. Racist labor union leaders directed
their actions and the anger of unemployed workers at the Chinese, blaming them for depressed wages and
lack of jobs, and accusing them of being morally corrupt. Denis Kearney, head of the Workingmen's
Party of California, led this inflammatory battle against the Chinese. As a consequence of this hostility,
local and statewide restrictions continued to be enforced against the Chinese. Eventually, the United
States government passed the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, barring Chinese laborers from immigrating
for ten years. Only officials, teachers, students, merchants, and travelers were allowed to enter the United
States. The Chinese currently in the United States were barred from naturalization. China, as the home
country for these immigrants, was unable to exert any influence on American policy. This law stood until
it was repealed in 1943.
In 1905, construction of an immigration station on Angel Island began in the area known as China Cove.
Surrounded by public controversy from its inception, the station began operation in 1910. Anticipated as
the "Ellis Island of the West," it was designed to handle European immigrants who were anticipated to
arrive in California once the Panama Canal was opened. Instead, the majority of immigrants to America
via the West Coast were from Asia. Like their European counterparts entering at New York City, they
hoped to escape the economic or political hardships of their homelands. On Ellis Island, immigrants were
processed within hours or days. On Angel Island, immigrants spent weeks or months - this
facility functioned primarily as a detention center. Beginning with the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, a
series of restrictive laws prohibited the immigration of certain nationalities and social classes of Asians.
Although all Asians were affected, the greatest impact was on the Chinese. In fact, more than 70 percent
of the immigrants detained on Angel Island were Chinese.

Historical Society.

Sentiment concerning the Chinese: Illustrations from Periodicals
Scope and Content Note
Information on the Chinese communities in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries comes to us
through books, periodicals, newspapers, and other written records as well as original source
documentation such as manuscripts, photographs, drawings, and other pictorial materials. The materials
are often filled with caricatures and derogatory designations. Yet these sources are still used because of
the scarcity of written documentation on certain aspects of Chinese-American history. One of the richest
sources of documentation can be found in the periodical literature of the time. Magazines, such as San
Francisco's
The Wasp and
The Wave and New York's
Harper's Weekly
and
Harper's Monthly flourished in the late 1800s and early 1900s, providing commentary on
political, economic, and social events. Although often overtly distorted or opinionated, these documents
illustrate what immigrants faced coming to the American West and the inter-ethnic tensions that were
present. They also serve to record the specific contributions of the Chinese to commerce, architecture,
and cultural and social life. By documenting specific locations, such as San Francisco's Chinatown, these
publications show the historic significance of places and buildings and provide valuable information
about patterns of early Chinese-American life. These illustrations document how key the Chinese
communities in California were in building the industries that enabled the development of the West.
They are depicted as picturesque contributors or more often problematic, misunderstood workers in a
variety of scenes, reflecting their prominent roles in the building of the transcontinental railroad, the
mining industry, agriculture and fishing, and a variety of important manufacturing areas. Often what is
depicted in the periodicals reflects a complicated history of relations and reactions that the Chinese
experienced in coming to the American West.
Materials in this section are drawn from the collections of The Bancroft Library.
