After tbat we negotiated a treaty

150,000 Chinese have come to otiri
country to work honestly a:i I cive an t
equivalent for all tbe
tenefits thev
bave enjoyed.
Next, let us see under wbat circum
stances these people leave tbeir homes
and come here. It has been a great
objection urged rjainst them that
tbey do not come to settle, and con
sequently impoverish the country by
taking from, and adding nothing to
it. They have added labor and in
dustry, and thereby capital. They
bave given prosperity by furnishing
that.very cheap labor to California.
Without that, five-eighths of
the1
manufactures now ia operation io
California, and her public enterprises
had not been undertaken. If, after
having given their honest equivalent
for every dollar hardly earned here,
they chose to send their money home
to their families instead of spending!
... . ;
it Tor whiskey, or horse races, or in
otbet wavs, still less honorable. I sa v
they have a right to do so. Do nJt
all foreign laborers send part of their
earnings to their needy families as
well? The anti-Chinese agita'.ors sav
these Chinese come here as copies
or slaves. If so.tbeo, hundredsof peo-
pie left New York, Pennsylvania, aud
Massachusetts for California, also as
slaves in early days. Many wanted
to go, had no means, and so companies
were formed tbat sent ont many men
on contract to work for two years
transmittiog half tbeir earnings to
parties who furnished tbe moocv.
Chinamen coaie to California on the
same terms. A capitalist furnishes
tbem money and they c;me here and
honestly transmit tbe promised sum
These men come here voluntarily
with their only capital; industry and
determination to work, aud tbey do
(io. And that is tbe bead aud front
of their offending. Tbev ore so anx
ious to earn money to send back to
tbeir families to pay off tbeir debt
end to return to tbeir own country
to save themselves from tbe abu-w
and wre'xhedness bere.tbat th.'y will
work for anything rather than be
idle; and thus tbey come into direct
opposition with the first principles
of the trades-unions; to do the least
amount of work for the greatest
amount of pay.
If the eastern people who go out
to California and Iiurridly and super
ficially study tbe Chinese question,
would give the time and go down to
one of tbe Pac'fic Mail Company's
docks and see tbe Chinese arrive,
tbey would probably talk less. f,r
wbat tbey would se would give
tbem sufficient food for reflection to
keep them silent at least a while. I
don't believe that any country on
tbe face of God's footstool ha ever
permitted tbe indignities and id-
triatment to anv one race of people

The Chinamen are forced to live in

much unfavorable comment from un

watres they receive: submitting to the
exorbitant rents aud unjust and un

it needs to lay vheir bodies down in
to sleep at nights? Get higher

combine against surb a result.

where the laborers were few aud tbe
number of families great. It is, iu
short Chinese cheap labor which Las
advanced California more rapidly io
industrial resources thau any other
State in the Union iu comparison.
And who cries out so loudly against
Chinese cheap labor? Is it the
thoughtful, intelligent man or woman,
or the ignorant and worn out free
lunch bummer?
There ever was a class of men in
California who will not and never
would work ; wbostaudiu the atti
tude of expectant robins, with tbeir I
mouths open for bread to fall into
them, and who even were it so would
grumble because the breadjwas not but
lered. Well, those free lunch friends
have had at some period of their
lives a trade, but as long as two bits j
a dav, will buv two drinks and two
bouutiful free lunches, aud as long as
heedless, generous hearted Calilor
nians will lend them the two bits a
day they will not work ncr do any
thing, but sit around and cry out
against Chinese cheap labor, which is
ruining their trades and the coun ry,
ami takin.' the bread out f pour
mn's mouths. Humbug! tbey
would'nt work at ten dollars a day.
Then again there is another class
who are forever up iu arms on the Chi
nese cheap labor question. Tbe foretgu
laborers, aud in fact the general ruu
of ignorant foreign people. They
c.me here from a country where they
receive more kicks ihau half pence
for tbeir work Tney are always
Democratic in p dines, aud tbey don't
believe in foreign itnigra'.ion, and
talk grandly aluut tbecjutitry going
to ruin wheu in reality they were
never so prosper ius, wheu by ordin
ary iudustry they can accumulate
money, pay for a homestead aud
have a right to aid in the making of
laws.
Right here is tbe main cause of the
enmity to tbe Chiuese, shown of late
in California There is a clique of
shrewd politicians in California who
have had enough of astuteness to
make this a party question, and they
bave so pulled the wires that all tbe
laborers of California with few ex
ceptions have formed themselves into
trades unions eight hour leagues,
and other kindred associations, and so
wheu the white laborers join together
and demand higher pay for tbeir wotk,
the contractor, builder, farmer and
mannfacturer commence to look abom
them, aad a last as a measure to
protect them-elves employ Chinese
help. No man can say tbat white
labor is not always prefercd, aud
tbat it does cot cmumaud a higher
price even where Cbiu?se are employ
ed. Once this state of things reach
ed, tbe politician has nothing to do
but to make the ignorant sheep
believe that Chinese labor in at the j
bottom, and that ieg'slation is neces
sary to quench the burning evil. Tbe
politician thus becomes a leader, and
he gives speeches aud holds meet
ings where you hear nothing but tbe
"danger of Chinese Imigration,"
"Chiuese Villainy," "Chinese are
ruining tbe country" and other things
equally absurd.

A Nwiairr'aKon H tar Ted to Death.
Piiii.A!'F..rniA, January 30 A fur
ther investigation was had here to
day before Coroner Goddard in the
case of tbe death of William Harvey,
the soldier's orphan, who died at the
University Hospital from lockjaw
caused by cruel treatment alledgedto
have beeu inflicted by II. P. Voueida,
of Laniliertville, N. J., to whom the
boy had been indentured. The task
master compelled tbe boy to saw
wood in bis bare feet, in the snow,
before breakfast, and if be did not
perform a certain amount of work
was deprived of bis meals. He was
really starved to death, aud heated
in the most brutal manner. Before
he died the boy related tbe facts of
bis treatment. An effort was made
to secure Voneida, but he escaped.
The evidence to-da did not reveal
any new facts except to show that
the boy was released from tbe North-e.-u
Home for Friendless Children io
tbe regular manner, on the represen
tations of Voueida that be would
treat tbe boy as one of bis owo
children. There is every prospect
of securing tbe villain, the Grand
Army of the Republic having taken
the rust'er iu charge and procured tbt
bet detective talent in the country.
They have offered a reward of $joo,
which Coroner Goddard bas supple
mented by $50 more, his believed
that Voneida will be iu custody by
next Tuesday, to which time the in
quest tas been adjourned.
