Horace Francis Page (October 20, 1833 – August 23, 1890) was a 19th-century American lawyer and politician who represented California in the United States House of Representatives for five terms between 1873 and 1883.
He is perhaps best known for the Page Act of 1875 which began the racial prohibitions against Asian, primarily Chinese, immigration.
