STATEMENT OF ANsoN S. HOPKINS.

STATEMENT of ANSON .. EOIhlNSs
Agreeable to request of my father
that should make statement for him
of what | know of his reason for going
away last fall, and the connection Mr..
Shaw had with it so far as l know, l
willingly do. so in justice to him, al
though as is well known, l had no
knowledge of his financial matters at
that time. Yet am convinced that he
had no idea of what was coming upon
him when he left home, and as well
convinced that he would not have gone
as he did, had it not been for the urgent
advice of Mr.. Shaw who knew the whole
state of affairs, as he has told me since.
| knew that Mr.. Shaw went to see my
father for three days prior to his leav
ing, and insisted that he (father) should
go right off, and that father hesitated !;
but when he finally started, he drove
down to the office and called me out
and asked nae if thought he had bet
ter go. | replied, you will be worn out
II you try to do business now, and Shaw
will take care of it all till you come
back.
The second Sunday morning after
father left, Mr.. Shaw sent Henry to my
house with note that | must come right
up there. / went up, and he said first /:
''Are you going to stand by and see
your father crucified without making
an effort get him away" and then went
on to tell about all the stories that were
current, and he thought that it was all
true, that father had forged Green's
name and DR.. G.. B. Billiards.. Mr.
Shaw told me he had been to see Bul,
lard about it, and he (Bullard) declared
it was forgery that my father had
been to him and on his knees begged
for mercy, etc. Shaw said 81 want tC

Are We Ruined by Chinese Cheap
LaborP
IDr. Holland in scribner's for January.l

lDr. Holland in Scribners for January
1t is tossed in the teeth of the China
man that he is heather, that he is an
opium eater, that he sends his money
home, that he does not bring his wife
and family with him, but does bring
prostitutes that he is filthy, that the
quarters he inhabits are breeders of
disease, that he is a gambler, etc. 1t
is a fair question to ask, in the face of
these charges, whether the treatment
meted out to this heather has been
such that he sees marked superiority
of Christianity over heathenism. And
how impressive is the Christian lesson
impaired to the heather by the unre-
buked toe of hoodlum's boot? ? What
would heather naturally think of a
Christianity that greets him with howl
Oh his landing, and follows him with
discriminating laws and regulations,
and public contempt, and private, I'M
hindered abuse during all the time of
his residence? ? The charge of heathen-
ism is just trifle absurd. And, again,
if the Chinaman smokes opium, who
drinks whisky? If he has prostitutes,
whose unrebuked example does he fol-
low? ? If he sends money home, it is
precisely what the Irish have been
doing, in the most filial, brotherly and
pTaiseworthy way for the last century.
If he comes to California without his
wife, he does simply what tens of thou
sands of Californians have done since
| immigration into the state began. If
he is gambler, how long is it since
gambling went out of fashion in Cali
fOrnia If his quarters are filthy, why
do not the city authorities attend to
their duties
We ask these questions not because
we suppose they decide anything, but
because, in our ignorance, we should
like to know. In the East, the preju-
dice against our heather Brother John
III California seems a little unreason-
able, and we want more light. We
have been in the habit of welcoming all
other nationalities. We are strangely
insensitive to the importation of thou
sands of criminals and scamps and seal
awags from Europe, and we cannot yet
feel sure that the importation of the
Chinaman is not better thing, on the
whole. He certainly is industrious, he
minds his own business, and, so far as
we have seen him here, he does an
honest days work, which is more than
can be said of good many Christian
laborers whom we have around us. Oh
one thing, at least, we are sure. No
people can hold large body of men in
contempt, and regard them with hatred,
and treat them like beasts, without
demoralizing themselves. That thing
has been tried, and tried in this coun-
try, too. The CalifOrnians cannot af-
) ford to have the Chinaman with them,
unless they can treat him like a man.
They must either do this, or the China
man must go. To hold fellow-man
in fixed contempt, to spit upon him un-
rebuked, simply because he is of an
, other race, or is supposed, in the com
petitions of life, to interfere with ones
prosperity, is simply to lapse from
Christianity into barbarism. And that
: in its own time, will produce results il
which the Chinese will not be interest
t ed, except as observers.
