THE CHINESE.
The Chinese of Cali
fornia and the Pacific coast is over
400)000, and of this number over
20,000 are located in San Francisco.
The number will probably be largely
increased from the fact that a new
line ofHS learners has been put in
operation between Chinese ports
and San Francisco, the main sup
port of which is expected to come
from Chinese emigration. The ar
rivals have exceeded 2,000 per week
and threaten to be much more from
the stimulons which the steamships
give to the trade. China is crowd
ed with laborers that are only wait*,
ing for a favorable opportunity to
eome to America, and if emigration
was encouraged by the Government
and our people friendly->to the
heathen Chinese would
floO'd the country in a short time,
and might probably, in a century or
so, be able to dispute here the su :
premacy *of the white race. The
rapid increase of Chinese emigra
tion, at any rate, has alarmed the
Californians, who are in danger of
being absorbed by the Mongolians,;
and in consequence they are in no*
gait able mood to solve justly the
question of Chinese Emigration.
The plan which the city supervisors
of San Francisco undertook to put
into law was novel, if not liberal
And ohriatian, and the inventor of
it ought to receive a medal for his
remorseless ingenuity. The plan
nought to outrage the religious sen
timent of the Chinese by forbid
ding the removal of the remains of
deceased persons from the city cem
eteries and grave yards, thus pre
venting their removal to China, and
provided for the close clipping of
the hair of all prisoners committed
to the city jail by the police, and
laid a heavy special tax on the laun
dry business, a business of which
the Chinese have a monopoly.
These laws were passed by the
board of Supervisors, supported by
the majority of the people, but ve
toed by the Mayor. They were de
signed to check the tide of emigra
tion that is setting in so frighfuily
and arrests the attention of the citi
zens to the dangers ahead from this
source. It has already had some
effect for the agents of various
Chinese transportation companies
have sent word back not to send
any more Chinese over, and Lai.
Tong,., Yang Kag, A Yup, Lai
Food, and Chung Leong, have
nnited ii) publishing a petition, in
which they contrast the policies of
China and America, and set forth
the grievances of the Chinese in
rather forcible language. These
. heathen Chinese, however, admit
that the policy of China was based
on the idea of rac e-antagonism from
which she feared evil results, and
hence sought to exclude from her
borders other races, but the United
States and other Christian nations
opposed this exclusiveness, and
forced on her stipulations,
commercial relations and friendly
Interchange of commodities
and persons. In conclusion
they propose a speedy and steady
abrogation and repeal of the pres
cat-treaty relations between China
: and America, requiring the return of
all Chinese people and the retire
ment of all Chinese trade from this
country, and the withdrawing of all
American trade and persons and com
mercial intercourse from China. The
proposition goes too far. The Amer
ican people arc not opposed to Ch i
nese emigration, regulated by law,
and under certain restrictions nec
essary to* the WeD being of both
RADICAL
races. Other-questions besides the
simple one of emigration enter .into
the problem and demand serious
consideration. But we must defer
it for want of space.
THE FARMERS* MBW bra. '
The Executive Committee ot the
Farmers’ Association, of Illinois,
has issued a call to the farmers to
nieet in ; county or other 16cal gather
ings on the Fourth .of July, to con
sider the dangers of Railroad and
other chartered monopolies, which
threaten not only the liberties of in
dividuals and classes, but thf peace
find prosperity of .the. nation itself.
If such like* feeling, in Wisconsin;
and lowa, and throughout the west
ern gram growing region is as bitter
and hostile as in Illinois, then this
farmers movement means reform, in
earnest. An analysis of their call
will give a better understanding of
the objects and spirit of the move
ment. They call upon all granges,
farmers’ clubs, associations and perr
eons interested, to unite in celebrat
ing Independence day in such a
manner as to give it a new lease of'
life, to commemorate a new era of
liberty and equality. , The call is a
paraphase of the Declaration of In
dependence and solemnly .''.asserts
that to the people belongs the fun
damental right to abolish laws, and
institutereforms whenever, by the
injustice or inefficiency of their
laws or the corruption of their ad
ministrators, they fail, to. secure the
objects of jjood government. This
fundamental truth interpreted by
such application of it to existing
facts as the farmers propose, be
comes intensely radical, if not rev
olutionary, and taken in connection
withtbe defeat .of Judge Lawrence,
indicates an uprising of the people
to regain equality before the law,
and the means whereby they can
reap the rewards of their own in
dustry. The farmers declare that
they will use every .means, except
force, to over throw the obstacles
in their way, to break down all mo
nopolies that crush the people in or
der to bring all citizens to the same
political level and give all an equal
chance,Which they have not now be
fore the law, to life, liberty and the
pursuit^.happiness. Their arraign
ment of the railroad monopolies is
severs and reveals the secret of the
j movement. They charge these cor
, porations with doing many unjust
and dangerous acts, such as influenc
ing executive officers to prevent just
J legislation; defying the laws of the
] land and refusing to obey them ;
] procuring legislation for their own
! special advantage, by which they
have put untold millions into their
[coffers; ’bribing venal legislators
1 with money and silencing the timid
| by free parses ; ostracising indepen
-1 dent representatives at the polls;
i claiming chartered exemptions from
1 legal enactments; corruptly control-
ling courts and judges; combining
to destroy fair competition and to
make unjust discriminations;paralyz
ing commerce - by exorbitant rates
of freight; retarding the settlement
of the country by monopolizing pub
lic lands and charging high prices
for them; fraudulently obtaining
government bonds and corruptly us
ing them as a fund §nd con
trol Legislatures and subvert every
branch of the government to their
own sordid and selfish purposes; in
creasing public taxation, and evad
ing taxation themselves, by violat
ing the express provisions *of their,
charters. Such contemplated re
form,are the dawning of the farmers’
new era, the adherents of which
have pledged themselves to use all
lawful and peacefulmeans to effect
the same.

The opening of the Northern Pa

on the Missouri,' is an" important
event that will be.likely to material

SHALL THE JOURNAL SUPPORT
THE TICKET NOMINATED I
Within the past week it has been stated
that the Journal would hot support the
ticket nominated on Monday nest! That
it would take part in a move to urganize
and form another ticket! We are candid
to express that there Ist a determination
in some circles to form a new ticket, if
the one nominated on'Monday hext is not
of a complexion to suit! them. The way
things etand~at this late hour of ib e cam
paign, so bitter is the feeling in soma
quarters it seems almost inevitable! It
looks'as though the keynote> for that
course bad already been sounded by some
of the correspondents iln regard to some
of the officers to be nominated. Of such
a suicidal course we disapprove, and will
do what lies in our poster to prevent it.
To opr friends, to thosewho are: candj
dates forthe different positions, we have
this to say, that whatever ticket is nomi
nated on Monday next, we shall support,
and that support wlllbe foil and free,
eVen if those nominated tfp not our own
choice. The Journal shall give no uncer
tain sound—the tone shall be clear, loud
and true tor the regular I ticket, and there
is no power which cab Control it other-'
wise. We control its columns in every
sense, end we care not if the parties who
are said, to be 'the power behind the
throne should bolt and have power to

to succeed Scott; tfiat, Sam Henry •is to

is a difficulty as to who is to succeed
Henry in the legislature from Cambria

may secure the. places assigned them by

position to the re-election of Mr. Scott;
believe there is no serious objection to the

are not certain that any Republican can

we trust we will be excused from believ

would require. He says:
"If a great political struggle was pend

direct our strength, and the
enemy-might win a victory soiely through
our lack of discipline. Our great men
all seem to have subsided into nothing
ness, and the small fry are making asses
of themselves in the desperate attempt to
convince the people that they are some
body. Politically, everything seems dead
in the Democratic camp. In a dull,
stupid, half-asleep sort of a way, we man
age to plod along, and always poll at
every election ju*t enough votes to allow
ourselves to be counted out. Then we
waken up a little, feeoly cry out “fraud !
fraud !’’ swear a couple of times, and then
—go to sleep again. Now, this won’t do.
We must either wake up and do as a party
ought to do, or else we must gel Out of
the way for some other organization that
