A Very Coed Analogy.

goes on to say that s. Chinese popula-
ton expels all other. as inferior cur
rcncy expcls all other kinds the
analogy grows bewil,leriny. Is this
intended to illustrate Asiatic desrav-
itv. or is it an insidious attack upon
the lega!-tender notel-tN. \. Tn
bune.
There Is nothing about the analogy
to bcwilder any unpreiudiced mind.
The inferior currency passes from
hand to hand, while the superior
seeks the money wants and ceases to
circulate. The Chinese expcl all
superior races because no superior
race can compete with them. Ials
is a plain fact to persons acquainted
with the habits of the Chinese, TO
Others it may seem foggy and para
doxical. Suppose, for the sake OF
comparison, and comparison Is mere
forcible as the proposition Is extfcme,
suppose that race of people were
discovered on some hitherto unknown
island, or in the interior of Africa, or
where you please, who did not re-
oQirc food to sustain them or cloth
inr to cover their nakedne>s; could
any man who had to eat and wear
ordinary covering compete with themR
OF curse he could not. He would
die out of the labor field and his
place would he supplied by the non
consuming race. Thea, just in pro-
portion as race OF people curtail
their necessities, in such proportion
do they infringe upon the race who
cannot curtail their necessities. This
is the main point upon which turns
the Chinese question. Cinnamon
have habits of lite and traditions
which compel tnca 70 practice per,
sonal economy 70 an extent bordering
on privation, or starvation even. At
costs them to live just about twenty
per cent. OF what /, costs white mea
II live. Therefore they can afford to
work fer less than one-hslf of
what white men must have
ia order II feed aud cloihe
themselves. The latter must then
give way IN the struggle for a
living, just as the gold coin disap.
pears in presence Of tloed Of paper
money. The analogy is perfect.
What, then, is TO be donel Either
