THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1370.
tST The Evening Telegraph, from
Its original establishment, has been in the
receipt of telegraphic news from the New
York Associated Press, which consists ot
the Tribune, Times, Herald, World,
Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex
Press. The success which .has attended
our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi
dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia
bility ol the news which we have received
from this source. Last March we entered
Into a special contract by which The
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive
use of the news furnished in the afternoon
by the Associated Press to its own members,
the North American, Inquirer, Ledger,
Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat,
of this city, and the leading journals of the
East, North, West and South; and hereafter
The Telegraph will be the only evening
paper published in this city in which the
afternoon despatches of the Associated
Press will appear.
TEE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR
SHERIFF.
Some of (he enemies of the Republican can
didate for Sheriff, William 11. Leeds, finding
that his nublemished official record furnishes
no point of attack, are assailing him on the
ground that he has for years devoted his best
energies to the advancement of the interests
of the Republican party. The fact that he has
been an unfaltering partisan worker, that he
has labored zealously to detect Democratic
frauds, to rally the supporters of the Union
cauf e to the polls, and to infuse vigor and suc
cess into active political campaigns, is tortured
into a crime instead of a virtue by his assail
ants, and Republicans are asked to withhold
from him their support because he has strug
gled too zealously for the triumph of their
great principles. It is not pretended that he
has committed any dishonest or illegal act
if he had, his adversaries would speedily
trumpet it to the world. The main point of
their objections is in that instead of regard
ing the struggle on which the welfare of the
nation was dependent with a feeling of philo
sophic indifference, he was the hardest of the
hard workers for the Republican party, and
the keenest of the keen detectives of the
fraud by which its adversaries sought to win
illegal triumphs.
This objection carries on its face its
own answer. If a party does not bestow a
fair proportion of its lucrative rewards upon
men who serve it faithfully, and who combine
irreproachable personal character with re
markable partisan activity, it will fare as
badly &h an army in which unfaltering resolu
tion and courage fail to win promotion, and
it will speedily be annihilated by a foe which
possesses sufficient coximon sense to employ
proper incentives to vigorous effort. It is no
n..nu business to organize and vitalize the
forces on either side in our oity campaigns.
There is a bewildering succession of cauouses,
delegate elections, conventions, registrations,
etc, etc., all of which have to be attended
to vigilantly by somebody to ensure
success; and when the men most' familiar
with all these operations seleot, as they have
in th case of Mr. Leeds, a nominee on the
ground that be has been the useful agent,
par excellence, in organizing victory and in
bt filing the fraudulent schemes of the foes
of the great party of the Union, he gains the
strongest claim to the support of every mem
ber of that organization. If we had picked
our nominee for Sheriff from the drones, we
could have found thousands of men qualified
veil enough to discharge the duties of the
office, but there would have been no good
reason for choosing any one of them in
prtfeience to any other; while, by nomi
nating a man who unites all the qualifications
of a faithful and excellent officer with gallant,
continuous, and efficient partisan service, we
not only bestow a reward where it has been
earned, but prompt thousands of the rank
and file to do a good share of hard work in
the present and future campaigns, by the
hope that their zeal will not go unrewarded.
When the Republican party gets ready to die,
it can rapidly hasten its dissolution by turn
ing a cold shoulder upon the men who work
for it in sunshine and in storm; if it wishes
to live, it must recognize and reward their
services. '
WILLIAM D. THOMAS ON TUB
"JIEA1HEN CHINEE."
The Piea has been cruel enough to publish
Verbatim the letter which William B. Thomas
Wrote to the Anti-Coolie mass meeting held at
National Hall last evening.- It throws a new
light upon the causes of the intense hostility
Of this rabid foe of the "Heathen Chioea,"
Which will be readily understood by oar
loaders when they j. erase the document ap
pended to this article. The Chinese are ab
oard enough to make political promotion de
pend upon literary attainments, and the rigid
enforcement of a similar rale in this
Country would exclude Thomas from the
very lowest grade of offioes. K this Chi
nese idea were adopted by the voter i of the
Fourth district, his vain ambition con' A n ver
be gratified, and under these circumitanoi
we cannot be surprised at his zeal in opposing
their u imration" his apprehensions of the
"consequence of the evSconsequesret resulting
from their contact with vt to our morrals or
politick" end his emphatia declaration that
they have "no right to come hearr at all."
The jtestiferous Heathen Chinese would be
wicked enough to insist that candidates for
Congress Bhould know how to speX a few
words in their own language, and to force aspi
rants who write 11 hearr" for "here," "verry"
for "very," "morals" lor "morals," "imigra
Hon" for "immigration," and ''emigrate"
for "emigrants," to take a few courses of in
struction in the primary schools before they
ventured to solicit the suffrages of an intelli
gent community. No wonder that the Gene
ral wishes to "ouild a Chinese wall on our
Western coast so high that it would be impost
lie for them to scale tt !" If their system
prevailed blockheads would be ruled out of
the Capitol, and the high places in our "poli
ticks" would no more be aspired to by men
of the intellectual grade of our doughty anti
Chinaman. The Chinese idea would be
" distructive" to all his aspirations,
and he has the best of
reasons for denying to them "the right to
come hearr at all!" It remains to be Been,
hewever, whether the voters Of one "of the
most intelligent districts in the Union will
fully sympathize with the General's horror of
literary attainments and his deep aversion to
the Chinese standard of political preferment.
The specimen he has given of his own ac
quirements is faithfully copied from the
Press of this morning, and that journal
vouches for its accuracy, so that his claims to
support as a murderer of the President's Eng
lish are fully verified:

John Leach Esq Preiident Trade Union And Coolie
League
Dkah Sib I am so much much pressed for time
ttiat 1 am only aide to answer your interoja'oru
very briefly, but as I have spoken so often on the
Coolie question 1 ttilnk my opinion must be alread y
well known fcufflcekit to say that I a in in favour of
pREslDg to ruost stringent laws agaliiBt their Migra
tion either under the contract system or by Individ
ual effort. So much atn I opposed to their G'tmlag,
In consequence of the evil conHeqnence resulting
from their contact with us to our rnorralx or politick,
and our labour, that 1 would if it were wlthlu my
power build a Chinese wall on our Western coast bo
high that It would be Impossible for. them to scale it.
Whilst we cordially Invite emlyrats from U-erinmy,
Ireland, France, Prussia, Ac. who come hea r to
cast their lot with us, become naturalized and lay
down their bones In our soil, we have a right to apply
a verty different rule to those who come liearr lor a
lew years to luterjere with our labour, collect tio
tnerasumof money and then go buck to China.
They have indeed no right to come hearr at all.
I am altogether opposed to voting the public
lands to corporations or speculators, or, Indeed, la
very largo quantities to any one. The people have
been swindled by the present and former O n
greases out of millions of acres of the public do
main, the members themselves In most cases
received a large Interest In the corporations
created ns a consideration for their votes.
No one man Buould be allowed to possess himself
of an unually quantity of land, at least uv.less to re
Bide upon It and cultivate for the reason that It is
calculated to produce that condition of absenteeism
bo distrvctive to the interest of the peasantry of some
of the old country.
I enclose herewith a speech delivered by me at 19th
& Callowhill st. lust evening in which the Cool'e
question 1b discussed more at length that time will
peimlt me to do on the present occasion.
I am Very Kespectfully Yours,
Wm B Thomas
THE COOLIE QUESTION.
Before the troubles arising out of slavery
culminated in the Rebellion it was clearly
foreseen that the Chinese question would be
the next great subject for agitation, and that
a contest with regard to the importation and
employment of Chinese laborers, if it lacked
some of the disturbing elements of slavery,
would be characterized by others scarcely
less dangerous to the peace of the country.
A combination of circumstances, the chief of
which is the completion of 'the Pacific Rail
road, have precipitated the Chinese question
upon ns even sooner than - was expected; and
the only polioy that we can pursue, if we
hope to avert disaster in the future, is to deal
with it promptly on the broadest prin
ciples of justice and human
ity. Leaving out of consideration the
narrow-minded and bigoted ideas of the least
intelligent classes of' workingmen and the
miserable demagogism of trading politi
cians, there is one plain and praotical method
of dealing with the Chinese question that
will commend Itself to all who are capable of
forming opinions on the subject. The im
portation of coolies under contract for a
term of years ought to be forbidden under
the severest penalties, and their importation
under any circumstances by labor speculators
ought to be discouraged in every way that it
can be done legitimately and without vio
lating the natural rights of anyone. At the
same time it would be worse than folly to
attempt the exclusion of the Chinese from
the country while we weloome immigrants
who oome to ns from every other part of the
world. The principles upon which our
Government is founded and our whole
policy for nearly a oentury ' are against the
idea that any discrimination can or ought to
be made by our laws for or against any class
of foreigners who may desire to settle here;
and if the Asiatics, like the Europeans, are
left to follow their natural impulses in leav
ing the Old for the New World, we will receive
what will prove to be in many respects 'an
exceedingly valuable addition to our laboring
population, while there will be no oooasion
to fear that the labor market will be impro
perly crowded. The workingmen of the
United States have no right to ebject to
the Chinese of their own option emigrating
to our shores, and no combination, however
powerful, can prevent them from doing so,
but they have a right to protest against the
coolie trade, and in their opposition to the
revival of slavery under this new shape they
will have the cordial support of the best and
most intelligent people of the country, whe
ther they belong to the so-called working
classes or not.
We are pleased to see that the platform
adopted si the anti-coolie meeting held list
night at National Hall embodies substantially
the same ideas on this subject as we have al
ways advocated; and if the workingmen
throughout the country will thrust aside all
deinagogltim and take their stand fairly and
squarely against the coolie trade pure and
simple, agreeing to let the natural Chinese
immigration, like that from Europe, take oare
of itself, they can easily settle the whole diffi
culty at once and forever, before it assumes
such proportions as are likely to ocsasion
serious trouble.
As at most meetings of this kind, there was
a good deal of nonsense set forth, and the
very loose manner in which workingmen are
in the habit of reasoning upon great princi
ples of political economy was strikingly shown
in the protest .embodied in the platform
against the granting of the publio lands to
corporations, coupled with the demand that
they shall be reserved for actual settlers, and
also in the idea expressed by one of the
speakers that the Pacifio Railroad fs respon
ble for the increase of Chinese immigration,
and that it is therefore an evil to the work
ing classes. The men who reason thus,.beoause
they can see no direct gain to themselves from
the completion of a great national work like
the Pacific Railroad, lose sight altogether of
the fact that the laboring population, mqre
than any other, must be indirectly benefitted
by the stimulus given to all branches of in
dustry by the opening of a great avenue for
trade, and that these benefits must very much
outweigh any disadvantage that may result
from any increase in the Chinese population
that is likely to occur at present.
With regard to granting the publio lands
to railroad companies, we do not pre
tend to deny that there can be such
a thing as too much of it, but if groat rail
roads like that which now exists and those
which are projected to connect the Atlantic
with the Pacific seaboard, are to be built, it
is absolutely necessary that Government aid
should be extended; and this aid can best be
given in the form of land grants. At the
present time, at least, the workingmen of
the country have nothing whatever to com
plain of ia this respect, for there are
millions of acres of unoccupied publio
lands that anybody can settle upon
at Government rates, but any working
man who desires to obtain a homestead in
the great West will, if he has no more than
enough intellect to enable him to wield a
spade and hoe, select hi farm on the line of
a railroad, instead of burying himself in the
wilderness, and in so doing he will be a prac
tical exemplification of the wise policy of
the Government in granting lands in aid of
great national enterprises whereby the public
are quite as much benefitted as the individual
stockholders.
Messrs. Leonard Myers and William D.
Kelley, in their letters read at the meeting
last night, both expressed Bound common
sense views on this subject, that it would be
well for working men to consider with atten

M- THE PENN SQUARES AND THB PUB
LIC BUILDINGS.
Do the citizens of Philadelphia clearly understand
and realize that the selection of any other site than
the Penn Squares for the new Public Buildings will
give away for nothing, Irrevocably and forever,
these valuable squares of ground to private Incor
porated monopolies, in which the public have directly
no part or parcel t
Is it not monstrous to think that la the one In
stance It is proposed to lake from the people Washing
ton Sqnare, that has so long been their and thelf
hildren's play-ground this health correcting green
sward, dedicated to the Immortal Father of his
Country and In the other instance to give away for
nothing at all the people's Penn Squares, worth mil
lions of dollars, and to whom? Why, Incorporated
monopolies rich men's pet institutions, the thres
holds of which the poor man cannot enter without
fee and charge.
See to it, citizens of Philadelphia, that yon are not

of which is the diillculty of obtaining the Academy

the middle of a course is not only inexpedient, but
the publio is apt to lose it (Interest.
