ST. LOUIS, June 25.--The politicians of the
Pacific having failed to such recognition
Of the Chinese question in the Cincinnati platform
they hoped have to St Louis and are preparing
lay their before the Democratic Convention Col
W. II. Rogers OF San Francisco, who is one OF the
delegates to the Convention from California is member
of the Legislature of that State aud has also served
the joint Legislative Committee which has been engaged
in the investigation OF the Chinese question
during the past Winter and Spring, with the
object OF collecting facts TO Lay before
Congress at its next session.
The interest in the Chihee question represented by
Col Rogers and other Califonans in ST. Louis as
far greater than any other subject Of public
discussion. The people are unanimous in this
sentiment, and are ready to sink all other con-
sderations if they can only secure the legislative
or executive action which viii bring about the result
they so much desire Here then Is field which the
Democrats invited TO step in and occupy The OPP
poriunty they say offered to the Republicans and
they neglected to IT, OF this subject is
looked upon with indifference by the greater num-
OF delegates the Convention but as they very
generally place policy in such matters before principle
there is likely TO be very Ite opposition ITO any anti
Chinese resolution the Committee on Platform may re-

Col Rogers represents the condition OF white laborers
In the Pacific Coast states very dcporabe, and says
that it is attributable directly to the competition oi
Chinese labor. For instance, he saws there are
to-day. 10000 idle cigar makers in San Francisco.
and no work for them is TO be had since the
manufacture OF cigars has entirely passed into the hands
