The recruitment of Chinese immigrants by large labor unions in the Midwest 3. The fear in the west of losing jobs to Chinese immigrants 4. The lack of available resources in the east to support a large influx of Chinese immigrants

Answer 1

The situation in the cartoon illustrates:

3. The fear in the west of losing jobs to Chinese immigrants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though you haven't posted the cartoon here, I was able to see it online. It depicts a large number of Chinese immigrants waiting on a ship, Uncle Sam, and a group of Americans. While Uncle Sam asks, "Why not give them an equal chance?", the Americans yell, "Don't let them come it!" That illustrates how American workers were afraid of losing their jobs to the immigrants. Often, immigrants will work for less money and longer hours out of need, which makes them a lucrative choice for employers. That exploitation causes people to fear for their jobs, which often leads to a xenophobic feeling toward the immigrants.
