The veto is a fact accomplished.
There should be unanimous ef-
fort on the part of all public and all
political bodies in California
State and County Central Commit
tees, Chambers of Commerce and
City Councils-to induce Congress
to pass the bill over the veto. The
effort is almost hopeless one but
1t ought to be made. There should
be no failure of duty on our part.
The thing to be overcome is the fa-
natical "Man and Brother" vagary
of the Republican party of the
East. This leads them to
think that they know our affairs
better than we do ourselves. We
ought to try and break down this
barrier even though the chances
are ten to one against our success.

Hayes Veto Message,

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The
following is the full text of the
Presidents veto message delivered
to the House of Representatives
this evening.
To the House of Representatives:
After very careful consideration
of House bill 2443, entitled, "An
act to restrict the immigration of
Chinese to the United States" /
hereby return it to the House of
representatives in which it origin
ated, with my objections to its
passage. The bill as it was sent to
the Senate from the House of Rep
resensatives was confined in its pro-
visions to the object named in its
title, which is that of "an act to
restrict the Immigration of Chinese
to the United States.u The only
means adopted to secure the pro-
posed object was the Limitation of
the number Of Chinese passengers
which might be brought to the
country by anyone vessel to fifteen,
and as this lumber was not fixed
In any proportion to the size or tom
mage Of the vessel or by any con-
alteration Of the safety or accomo-

IT may be questioned whether
Hayes cares n baubce about his
successor being q Republican. 1t
used to be said of Mr.. Buchanan
that he had hankering to be re-.
garded as the last President of the
United States. Perhaps it Is
Hsyes's ambition to be accepted as
the last Republican President.
Should he veto the Chinese restric.
tion bill his conduct will be open to
that Interpretation. While it is
probable that the Republican party
has too much vitality to be killed
by Hayes he may prove himself
sufficiently influential to assure 1t
= long release from the cares and
responsibilities Of office.

The True Way to Invigorate.

The true way TO invigorate q feeble
system is to infuse activity into the OPP
erations Of the stomach. that wondrous
alembic in which the food is transmitted
into the constituents of blood, the chief
element of our vitality. Hostetter's
stomach Bitters, because 1t accomplishes
this end, is greatly to be preferred 10
many so.called tonios, useful, indeed. as
appetizers, but inoperasive as aids to di-
gestion and assimilation. This sterling
cordial, while it invigorates the stom-
ach, healthfully stimulates the liver,
bowels and kidneys, ensuring the escape
through the regular channels of etfete
and useless matter thrown off by the
system, which is thus purified as we'll as
invigorated by 1t. Its tonic influence Is
soon made manifest by an increase of
vital energy and more active and regu-
lar discharge of every physical function,
and 1t has the further effect of rendering
the system unassailable by malarial ep-
idemics.

On the 7th of August-ncxt Thurs
day-a School Director for each dis
trict in the county is to be elected.

The men who declare that "50-4 is
repudiating half the State debt" and
that ''no man is honest unless he fav-
ors the payment of the whole debt,
dollar for dollar" in the same breath
announce that THEY favored the CO.'S
compromise; and some could go still
further and acknowledge that when
Dorsey b. Thomas was candidate
for Governor they voted for him,
thereby virtually endorsing HIS plat
form of a tax of 20 cents, which is con-
siderably nearer reputation than
5O-4. If they could endorse Thomas
low-tax platform, why should they
now clamor for the payment of the
State debt at its full value, which
would place the rate of taxation at gu
cents on the 500, and increase the
distress now pervading the State.
These low -high-tax fellows reminds
us very much of the obstinate old dea-
con whose objections and opposition
to every church scheme not cminatlng
from his own dull brain, had well
nirh exhausted the patience of the
church officials. As a last resort, the
minister, one Sabbath morning
made special mention of the old dea-
cons case in his prayer, and after be-
sceching the Lord TO soften the OBJ
durate heart of the deacon, closed 10y
requesting that, if all other means
failed, the Lord would take the deacon
to heaven. At this the deacon eX'

tone, Il won't gow To spite an i'm

| Such men will not 60 to the polls OIL

The Knoxville Tribune says there
are only few Republicans in East
Tennessee who oppose the 50-4 COM
promise, and we very much question
the honesty Of the few who have ar
l1yed themselves against it. AT Eliz-

the people were urged to support the
compromise by Hons. A. A. Taylor
and r. r. Butler, two of the most
prominent Republicans in East Ten
nessec; Hon. A. A. Taylor pledging
the meeting to vote for the compro-
mise and to use its best endeavors to
bring out a full vote. 1t was unani-
mously adopted. Carter is Republi-
can county, but it places itself right

maiden speech in Congress, that "the
