KEEP THEM OUT.

We believe in excluding the
"Heathen Chinee" from the United
States
We are tired and sick Of having
put forth as a reason why the Johns
of Asia should be allowed to pour
in upon us, that "our forefathers
designed that this land of ours should
be an asylum for the poor end OPP
pressed of every nation In view
of actual facts it is no reason at oil.
1t was probably the design Of the
founders of this government that
emigrauts from other and less favor
ed lands, should be warmly well
coined, provided they came with the
intention Of upholding and main
tanning our forms, and customs
and institutions. The emigrsnt
was to be welcomed in accor-
dance with the theory that every
individual who hither came, sought
q new home in q land whose institu-
tions he loved, and whose spirit OF
freedom he recognized as the out
growth from the hearts of men OF
like aspirations with himself.
Such man may be wisely welcom-
ed. In little time he ceases to be an
alien. He becomes in fact and in
spirit q citizen. The desire of the
fathers becomes his desire-the de-
sire to maintain and transmit our
blessings of good government to
posterity.
John Chinaman Is not that sort Of
q man. He comes to this country q
Chinaman. He remains distinctively
a Chinaman while here. And, at
last when he has secui ed sufficiency
to live upon in a land where the cost
of living is from two to four cents
per day, returns home, q Chinaman.
While resident Of this country, he
has no concern respecting it's well
fare but with view solely to his
return home, he sets about the Sc
curing of the small sum that shall be
to him a competency. He can thus
afford to work cheap. Alongside ct
him, the American citizen, father Of
a family, and who has no other
thought than to live and die here,
as competitor with him for work,
cannot live. The one, 3 single indi-
vidual grows, as far us he is con.
cerned, practically rich upon what
will not keep the citizen and his
family supplied with the bare neces-
saries Of life.
Practically the citizen of the
United States who labors to secure
the wherewithal to live, as the COM
petitor of John Chinaman in San
Erancisco's labor markets, is obliged
t. contend with conditions that are
As.atic. Let the Chinese still con-
tame to come, and in proportion
t. their numbers will the weight
of these conditions burden the
laboring citizens of the Pacific
coast. What will be the inevita-
be results 1t will be either that
California will have to be- aban-
Gouel hy its labo.ing citizens, or

Tie Stepping Stone TO Health.

The acquisition of vital energy is the step
ping stone TO health. When tho system
lacks vitality. the various organs flag In
their duty, become chroncally irregular,
aud disease is eventually instituted. To
debilitated system should be built up by
the use of that inimitable tonic, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which invigorates the di-
gestive organs, and insures the thorough
conversion of food into blood Of nourish-
ing quality, from whence every muscle,

The Lee Statue.

About the 22d of ast month contract
County, Va, for ali the brick kUd1Ostoge and stoge
work of building which is to receive
the monume MT of the great Confederate
General, designed by Valentine. This
monument is tomb bearing the recum-
bent figure, in remarkable likeness, OF
General Lee. He is in uniform, the
sabre has just slipped from his grasp,
end his cloak partly covers his limbs.
quietly composed. The attitude is per-
haps rather of deep rest than Of death.
It is beautiful work of art, and worthy
of the effort made in Lexington to give
it an appropriate shelter. The remains
of General Lee, of his wife and oi
other deceased members of his family
will be inferred in large vault immedi-
ately under the apartment which will re.
ceive the statue. After the election of
the General to the Presidency of the
Washington and Lee University in
Lexington the.e was bui'. in the grvufiis
of the institution, and mainly through
the efforts of it's President, smatl church
or chapel intended for all tho public
services Of the university. 1t is a neat,
simple brick building, rather Norman
in style, Of n design selected and modi-
lied by the General. Ii had very si.;al!
chanccl, mostly for the purpose of make :
ing stairway TO the platform for speak
ing. This has been removed, and build
ing, which about represents in form and
dimensions the chancel of an Episcopal
church, is soon to be erected as a maus-
oleunn. 1t will contain on the level of
the basement of the church sort of
open vcstibule, paved, and .eached
through large open arch. Within this
yestibule are doors, one of iron, opening
into the vault, two others to the base
ment of the present church, and one TO
n covered stairway reaching convenient
ly to n vestibule above, which divides
the church from the mausoleum or chap
el. One of the lower ves.ibule doors
opens into the Office of General Lee. It
is found in the condition he left it. 1t
is carefully preserved, cleaned or busted
and the visitor sees it exactly as the
General did for the last time. All the
new building accords with the present
church, but it is Of very superior con.
struction and entirely fire. proof. The
old chancel arch remains; a CORES.
ponding ouo in the mausoleum walls
gives full view Of the statue. but is ar.
ranged with heavy iron sliding doors,
and every precaution has been taken to
cut off even the access of smoke to the
mauseleum chamber. This portion of
the building, about twenty-five feet
square, is to be built inside of Baltimore
pressed brick, laid with red joints and
finished with q considerable quantity of
cream -co;ored stone. These colors will
contrast we'll with the pure white of the
statue and its heavy base. The ceiling
of the mausoleum will be of ground
GLASS in panels, of o richly-moulded iron
construction. The light will come in
through skylight on the northern side
of tho roof There will be in the maus-
oleum also two windows for admission of

companies by this mornings train was
very large. About one hundred and fifty
visiting organizations participated in the
parade, which began at noon. The pro-
cession was nearly five miles long. A
military regiment Of Chicago headed the
procession, and was followed by the
Presidential party in carriages. Then
came the fire companies with numerous
devices on their engines, the Hook and
Ladder Fire Patrol and The Rescue com
panies in full uniforci. Continuous
shouts greeted the procession, and were
especially marked When the carriage con-
tanning the President standing with un-
covered head passed along. The recep-
ton committee will give the President a
drive in the parks hJ afternoon, and a
reception sill be he'd at the Grabd Pa
cific Hotel, at which several hundred
Veterans will be present.

OF course, Governor = 4mpton cannot

declares the law, but provide, no remedy

Governor Hampton should cause it to be

Fossil Discoveries in the West.

The Omaha Bee gives an interview
With Prof. s. w. Williston, of Yale
College, about some remarkable fossils
which have been discovered by Prof.
Marsh in tile vicinity of Como, Wyoming,
Colorado Springs, Canyon City and Nor
rison, Colorado. He said:
VI course you arc aware they are all
Petrlfied. The bones found exhibit ami
mails of the reptile species of early all
sizes, from that of cat up one six
ty feet in height. The nnme OF the an
imal found at Como is what is termed
the dinosaur. 1t belongs 10 the reptile
species of the crocodile order. The re-
mains give evidence that the animal
stood up on its hind legs, somewhat
like kangaroo, and of course its head
must have been about r. high as the
Grand Central Hotel Of your city when
he stood up. There were large num-
Der of these giant reptiles. We found
one Ill Colorado that Prof Marsh esti-
mates must have been about one hun
dred feet in length. We found and col
lected great many different remains of
the same general class, but belonging to
different species. We must have ship
ped from Colorado, Wyoming and KAN
sas from 300 to 400 specimens of the
dinosaur and about one thousand of
| what are known by the name of ptero-
dactylc. The latter are species of fly
ing reptile or dragon, that existed about
the same age as the dinosaurs. We
found a specimen Of one whose wings
we're from thirty to forty feet from tip to
tip. We found seventeen different spe-
cies of this kind in the cretaceous or
chalk formations Of Western Kansas.
We also found remains of six species OF
toothed birds. Most of these same
character Of Fossils are found to q lesse r
extent in the cretaceous formali, OF
England and also in Germany. The
timo when these animals existed must,
of course, have been hun dreds of thou
sands of years before the age of man.
