OPPOSED TO THE LA BoR PARTY.
One Of the leaders in the California

One of the leaders in the California
labor movement has been lecturing in
Virginia City against Chinese immi-
grafton to this coast. In the course of
his remarks he read the platform of the
"Workingmen's Party In California"
and suggested the organization of a
similar party in Nevada The Com.
stock papers oppose, or at least dis.
eountenance the movement. The En-.
terprise is owned by wealthy corpora.
ton. and edited by gentleman who
approved the Burlingame treaty and
upheld Senators Nye and Stewart for
voting to FATTY 1t, and of course it was
not to be expected that it would favor a
party the main plank of whose platform
is opposition to Chinese. The
Chronicle is also opposed to the new
party, and assigns as reason therefor,
"that the labor question ia Nevada is
controlled by the Miners Union"
That may be true 80 far as it relates to.
labor in the mines, but the Comstock
papers should rem ember that there is
little of Nevada outside the limits of
Storey county. Hundreds, of 1aboring
men in this State are not, and under
existing circumstances cannot be, mem.
bers of the Miners Union. They have
10 compete with Chinese in the labor
market, and while the Asiatics, whose
habits enable them to work at rates at
which white men would starve, find
employment, many of the latter are
driven to the alternative of begging or
starving. Hundreds of Cinnamon are
employed on the Central Pacific Rail-
road 10 this State, and at least half as
many white men are out of employ
ment. Toe Miners Union, which does
not extend beyond the men at work in
the mines, affords these outsiders
nelthsr protection nor relief from
Nnlnese compettliols and to say that
shey have not IA much cause to COM
plain against Cniuese Immigration, and
sO,enisayor to suppress 1t by eleoiing
men to Congress whJ will work to So.
sufo that enl. AS the workingmen of
California. or any other State. is simply
nOnsensicai.
