THE CHINESE AND CRIME.

1t is oftentimes astonishing to note
the amount of ignorance existing in
the East concerning affairs on this
Coast. Were we foreign people We
could not be less known nor under
stood than we are now, even with the
close proximity that exists by reason
of the railroad and telegraph. The
New York World expatiates very
wildly on the Chinese question, and
it should be better posted and more
honest in its expressions of opinion
upon the subject. The World declares
that in California there are no crimi
nails nor paupers among the heather.
The Sacramento Record Union has
studied this matter carefully, and
from the records shows that in the
California State Prison oil the last day
OF December, there were 1,0S8 prison.

porary properly remarks "that in the

foreign countries, and that out of this
last number 1877 belong to China. 1t

Fire at Salem.
SALEM, Or, May 3d.-This morn
ing shortly after one o'clock a fire
broke out in the main building of the
Willamette Woolen Manufacturing
Company's mill, and owing to the
building being thoroughly saturated
with grease and oil from long usage
the flames made such rapid headway
that before the Fire DEPARTMENT. could
reach the spot, the entire main build
ing was completely wrapped In flames.
The night watchman, Mr.. Cole, states
that shortly after ringing the one o.
clock bell, on stepping into the yard
he discovered fire in the roof about the
centre of the building, and going in to
ring an alarm, found the bell rope
burned. The building comprised wool
house, dry house, office and main
machinery, each of them being very
large and of the best class. They
were all destroyed in an incredibly
short time. and the heat at times was
so great as to prevent the firemen
from working to advantage. The loss
of the mill, which was the most ex-
tensive on the coast, is considered a
public calamity for Salem, throwing
Ill men, boys and girls out of employ.
ment. No Chinese have ever been
employed. The total loss will reach
$150,0O0. Insured for about $67 500 on
the building, machinery, woods and
goods in process of manufacture.

A LYING RASCAL PINIONED.

A few days prior to the Judicial
election of last year one KLosE pub
lished and otherwise circulated state
ments of the most libellous and dam
aging character against Rev. o. p.
FITZGERALD, Democratic candidate
for Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton. The slandered gentleman i'm
mediately and most emphatically de-
MED the truth of the charges, and
branded them as the false and mali
cious productions of political enemies.
Immediately after the election, which
resulted in the defeat of Mr.. FITzGER-
AID, he commenced suit for libel
against KLosE, and from time to time
the case has been called up and post
poned. In late San Francisco paper
appears a card from Mr.. FITZGERALD
announcing that the trial has again
gone over, but that he is determined
TO push it to final issue and refute
the base ISLANDERS. There is no doubt
In the minds of Mr.. FITZGERALD's
friends of his ability to vindicate HIM
self and prove KLosE wilful and ma
licious slanderer. When in San Fran
cisco few days ago the editor of the
HERALD learned from reliable source
that the libeler KLosE admitted him
self guilty of uttering falsehoods
against FITZGERALD, and expressed a
willingness to sign retraction writ
ten by Mr.. JARBoE, the attorney of
Mr.. FITZGERALD, fully exonerating

less than 1877 convicts, and only falling
short of these harmless and inoffen-
sive Chinese, whom her press thinks
so superior to white people that they
never find their way inside Jail or
elsewhere. If able editors in New
York would take the pains to ascer-
tain the facts before they lay down the
law, they would not so frequently
make themselves ridiculous. We may
add, as possessing some Significance,
that no other foreign nationality sup
plies so large percentage of criminals
in California as the Chinese.n

Fire at Phoebe.
PIOcHE, New, May 3.-About three
o'clock this morning fire broke out
In all unoccupied building on the east
side of Lacour street, and owing TO the
highly iuf1ammable character of the
buildings in the vicinity, the fire
spread in either direction till the
whole block from Staples furniture
store to Beaupre Block was in flames.
The fire commenced on the west
| side of Main street, destroying all the
buildings between Beaupre Block and
Hughes blacksmith shop. In all about
twenty-five buildings were destroyed.
With the. exception of the Daily Jour.
nal Office and Mrs. Hickey'sa millinery
establishment, the houses were resi-
dences. Had the fire jumped to the
west side of Lacour, or to the east side
of Main streets, the business portion
of the town would have been destroy
ed, and in fact the destruction of the
whole place was threatened, but there
was little or no wind at the time, and
by the united efforts of the fire depart
ment and citizens, the fire was con-
fined to the limits named, although
in great many instances the great
heat fired buildings on the west side
of Lacour and east side of Main street.
They present very dilapidated ap-
