EXCLUDING ALIENS FROM MUNICIPALITIES.

EXCLUDING ALIENS FROM MUNICIPALITIES.
Fifth--Can State confer on munich
palities the right to exclude them from
the city limits?
The State may exclude aliens, by
laws duly enacted, from occupying any
portion of its, territory, or restricting
the Danner of their occupation. or re.
quire them to occupy given portion
only of its territory. A familiar ex-
ample of the exercise of this power
may be found in sanitary laws. These
have always been exercised through
the municipal authorities. If q State
can say where, for reasons of public
health. any portion of its citizens shall
reside, and not otherwise, it is difficult
to see why, for any other reasons of
public policy. State may not exercise
q like power. As for protection against
fire communicating from building to
building. there has been no decision
giving the exercise of this power. and I
know of no limit to it except the legis-
lative will. The whole question re-
solves itself into this: That the public
policy Of exclusion must remain with
the Legislature. TO be exercised through
such agents as the State chooses to In
trust with this portion OF its power.

AN UNFOR rUNATE STATE OF

An item from the Reno Gazette in
another column shows that consider

districts 10 this county to the Auburn

several respects. The cost of transport

margin for profits and retards the

ore can be shipped at profit. Be.
sides this drawback, the money ex-
pended in reducing the ores is lost to.

BEN Blu rLER's CATECaIsM.

BEN Blu rLER'S CATECHIsM.
He Answers KeArneY's Five Ques-
tiOns.
The San Francisco Chronicle con.
tains the full text of Ben Bntler's an
swers to the Eve questions lately pro-
pounded to him by Dennis Kearney,
from which we make the following ex-
tracts:
First.-What power has State, by
provision in its Constitution. to pre-
vent Chinese immigration
Ans.--I answer: Under the decision
of the Supreme Court of the United
States, and under the treaty, State
cannot by it's organic law or legislative
action prevent or hinder the immigra-
ton of the subjects of the Empire of
China.
DISCRIMINATING AGAINST ALIENS.
Second-What discrimination can it
make by amendments to its Consti.
tuition against aliens and those not cap.
able of admissions to citizenship with
out conflicting with the Fourteenth
Amendment to- the Constitution. of the
United States?
Ans.-To this | answer that the
Fourteenth Amendment to the Consti.
tuition of the United States applies only
to naturalized aud native-born citizens
OF the United States. and therefore any
action taken by virtue of it's organic
law by State against aliens, especially
against the Chinese. will mob conflict
with that amendment to the Constitu-
ton which guards the rights of citizens
only. ri
CHINESE FISHERIES.
Third--Can we debar them, by Con-
stitutionsL inhibition from fishing 10
our inland waters. from receiving
license to engage in business. and from
using our State Courts and from other
privileges enjoyed by citizsns2
Ans.-I am of opinion that, either by
the organic law of State or by ordi-
nary legislative Act the rights of Ash
cries in its inland waters can be who'll
~ controllsd--so in regards to licensing
to trade and to do business--and that
aliens may be made incapable of suing
or being sued in the State Courts and
deprived OF other privileges enjoyed by
citizens.
LEvYING A CAPIrArroN TAX.
Pourth--Can State levy capitation
tax on such aliens2
Ans--I am Of the opinion that. under
the decision Of Court, no State can
levy a capitation tax upon the subjects
of the Empire of China as condition,
precedent to the landing upon the
shores of that part of the United States
within its limits. Al the same time,
have no doubt that the taxation of
those who choose to reside within its
borders, being aliens and not citizens
Of the United States, is entirely within
the power OF the State. To make such
determinations against them as it
chooses, how much and in what man
ner it may tax its own citizens. may be
regulated by the State; but. for a
stronger reason. it may protect itself
against the pauperism of any alien re-.
siding thereat who may so become. BY
levying tas. however onerous, TO pro-
tect itself from such pauperism; nor
does the ''most favored nations"
clause oppose any hindrance to this
power.
NO STATE rs BOUND

ders. without power to protect itself,

In the Herald Of December 1fth,

livering the Herald to subscribers, and

liver the Herald as promptly as any

The CraIg-Overton DimcuIty.

We made brief mention in our last
issue of the killing of John Overton in
Grayson county by james Craig. The
difficulty occurred in the Short Creek
neighborhood near Craig's still house
on Monday evening. 18th inst. Last
Spring Craig rented to Overton q
piece of ground which was cultivated
in corn. At the August election Over
ton became involved in fight with
Ben Kiper, and cut Kiper with a
knife for which he was imprisoned in
Jail at Litchfeld for sixty days. While
thus incarcerated Craig instituted suit
against him and attached the corn
which raised OvertOn's no and he
threatened to kill Craig so soon as he
had an opportunity. On the day of
the killing Overton repaired to the
field to gather the corn, Craig saw him
and asked him what he was doing
there; he replied that he WIS going to
haul it of. and if he Craig attempt.
ed to prevent him he would kill him.
Craig went and got his gun and shot
OvertOn, then cut his throat. and to
be sure he was dead he beat his brains
out with his gun.
Overton was a reckless, desperate
character. He is the same man that
stabbed big" George Simpson in the
neighborhood Of Hines Mills year or
so ago.
He has had several difficulties and
has always got the best Of it until this
time.
