Chincse not Wanted.

The Charleston IS. C.) Gazette comes out
strong against Chinese immigration, as be-
ing in direct conflict with the labor interests
Of the country. The Gazette quotes from the
speech of Senator Casserly delivered at San
Francisco in July last and pronounces it "a
splendid effort and conclusive upon the sub
ject Of Chinese immigration" and proceeds as
follows.
1--WE are no Chinese editor, eat no opium,
wear no rigtail. commit no suicide, nor wol-
ship any Mikadc, Tycoon or wooden image,
but we are interested to the core in this mat
ter of Chinese labor. We love the land in
which we live. move and have our being.
We have faith in the native vigor of our peo-
pie, in the inherent fertility of the soil, in the
shrouded future of the State. We feel that
this matter teaches the neace, happiness, the
very life of the community and if our words
weigh penny weight, we should throw them,
once for all. in the scale and decide the
trembling balance. We are opposed, uncom-
promisngly opposed, to Chinese immigration.
1t ia against the interests of the white and
colored laborer. 1t is new and powerful
weapon in the hands of capital against labor
1t is twisting gordian knot around the vi
tails of society. politics, religion and morality
1t is opening the tloodga,es of dangerous,
desperate and uniIiendly nationality. 1t is a
whitened sepulchre in which the heart and
hopes, the bone and sinew of the State will
be crushed and buried forever.
Put the Gazette down upon the record,
WITH A BLOOD RED MARX UNDER 1T, as voting
No among the press of this State on the ques-
tcn of Chinese introduction. We are devot-
ed heart and sorl to the best interest of the
working classes, white and black, but white
above all. We want 10 see the employer or
capitalist pay the employee every cent that
his time and labor is worth. We are in nc
cord with the Labor Conventions and Trades
Unions all over the country. Our columns
shall be open at oil times to vindicate the cause
of labor against capitalize struggling poor

worthy his hire, and we want no Chinese

The LONDON TINES ON CuBA.-The London

The only question is. whether they are in

saa Joaquin Valley Railroad.

The City Council of Stockton, On Monday
last. took action in the matter Of The building
of railroad from that city through the San
Joaquin Valley. The President Of the San
Joaquin Valley Railroad Company proposed
to bald se-enty-ire miles OF their railroad
from the City Of Sockton. and the right of
way through the city. to be given hy the city
and when seventv-fve miles of the ad shall
be completed, So that n locomotive and cars
shall pass over il, the city shall deliver to the
Railroad Company Three Hundred Thousand
dollars Of her bonds, end that the company
will build thrty-fve miles Of their road in
one year from that da.e. This proposition
was accepted and n committee appointed TO
draft an agreement between iAe city and the
Railroad Company. The people of Stockton
have made several unsuccessful Efforts TO start
Stockton and Copperopnlis Railroad Company
obtained grant from the general Govern
mnnt, but have thus far failed 70 accomplish
any thing that tends to the building Of their
Tnau. i ne STOCKTON ana luIare railroad
Company have beer incorporated, but have
effected nothing. The citizens have made eff
forts and failed to raise means to lui,d this
road, which appears to be the only one that
will permanently benefit that city. All for
mer efforts seem TO have been unavi.ing. Now
that Gov Stanford who represents the great
railroad interests of this State has come for
ward and offered upon terms to build the de-
sired road, and those terms having been ac
cepted, there appears a reasonable probabili-
ty that they will have road in a short time
running through the great grain raising val
ley. The people of this county have watched
the attempts made by the people of Stockton
to get this road with great interest If we
are to have a railroad in this county, it must
depend upon lines being built from Stockton
with which we can connect. The road now
to be built will cross the Tuolumpe River
near Empire City, with it we can connect and
make market for our various products. By
the time this road runs through Stanislaus
County our people should have taken such
measures as will secure the building of line
through Tuolumne. When there is a point
certain to connect with, we should be ready
to unite with it and break the solemn still
ness that now encompasses our county.
