WHETHER or not this Chinese problem i

WHETHER or not this Chinese problem is
game that the heather don't understand,
the fact is stated that the Chinese minister
at Washington secretly urged the passage eff
the bill forbidding the further immigration
of his countrymen. He is reported to have
said that two could play at that game. Per-
haps they can; but the celestials have a
rather uncomfortable habit of numbering
foreigners in retaliation for real or fancied
indignities. This sort of retaliation, when
China is full of Americs aas, might not prove
agreeable just now.

see that these receptions only make men

Nothing to Be Ashamed of.
IGlencoe Register. I

We have not so far heard of anything that
our legislature has done that it need be par
ticularly ashamed of, consequently do not
see the motive that actuated some of the
members of the House in their efforts to re-
peal the law providing for the publication in
the newspapers of the laws they make. Our
people are in favor of economy, but they are
not in favor of that kind of economy that
commences by withholding from them that
which they most need to know.
