TT will be seen by the dispatches
published elsewhere that the bill
restricting Chinese immigration is
receiving considerable attention in
the United States Senate.
Senators Blaine and Booth
are airing themselves, on the
Republican side, in Its favor, while
Stanley Matthews, the "guide,
philosopher and friend" of Presi.
dent Hayes, is running q tilt
against it. No California Working
man who has a throb of gratitude
in his composition can fail to rem
der his tribute to the Dem ocratic
House of Representatives which
passed this bill and sent it to the
Senate. 1t is distinctively DEM
ocratic measure, and is the carry
ing out, in good faith, of the
pledges of the Democratic National
Convention, held at st. Louis in
the sum mer of 1876.

Debate on the Chinese BIZ.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-In the
debate on the Chinese bill Mat
thews, of Ohio, opposed the bill and
said he wasn't willing to let the
occasion pass without putting on
record some of his reasons for op.
posing it. If he believed that the
representations which had been
made in respect to the evils to be
remedied by this legislation were
as true, as faithful TO fact, as the
Senators who made them, he would
still vote against the bill even
though we had the constitutional
power and moral right to keep out
the Chinese. His respect for the
sanctity of the plighted faith of the
nation, in O solemn treaty with q
sovereign power, would compel
him to seek to accomplish the rem
edy by some other means than any
arbitrary act of Congress. He read
from the Burlingame treaty and
said we solicited from the Chinese
the covenants which we are now
about to break, and we are about
to do it by putting on them the
stamp of hypocrisy on our own
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-02-15

Democracy, and headed by old
John Adams, had established O
probation of fourteen years before a
foreigner could be an American
citizen. Jefferson and the Democ-
racy overthrew both the party and
the probation, reducing the latter
to what the law reads to-day. He
initiated the revolution in the fol-
lowing memorable words:
"a denial of citizenship under n
residence of fourteen years, is de-
nial to great proportion of those
who ask it. Shall We refuse to the
unhappy fugitives from distress
this hospitality? Shall oppressed
humanity find no asylum in this
land? Might not the general char
acter and capabilities of a citizen
be safely communicated to every
one manifestipg bona fide pur-
pose of embarking his life aud for
tune permanently with us?'
The Democracy has steadily
stuck to that doctrine ever since;
and, in a gallant and signal cam
paign, headed by that noble DEM
ocrat Henry A. Wise, of Virginia,
it buried the Know-Nothing party
under a colossal regulatory vote.
In view of such facts, foreigners, in
opening their new schools, should
not "bouncen us too violently. The
Republican party really never sym.
pathized with negro suffrage. That
was their long deferred revenge
for the Democratic crusade be-
gun by Jefferson in favor of the
oppressed and helpless who should
wander to the United States from
what CLINE soever. Bearing his in
mind, people who have applied
to disintegratiDg the
Democratic party in Califor-
mia, even though they should
be only three days from
Cork or Limerick, Rotterdam or
Hamburg, should give their afore-
lime bewildered champions time to
collect their ideas and 20 satisfy
themselves that, in the language of
,he poet, "whatever is is right"
sven though the admission should
DO accompanied by some of the
anomalies of ingratitude and bru-
.ality at which we have taken
4 brief glance.

of American labor be brought to
the Asiatic level or forced toward
II? What Is that level and why Is
1t lower than the American? The
Chinaman who comes to our
shores brings no family, he has no
children to support, educate and
provide for; he gives no hostage to
the future and assumes none of the
social obligations which make up
so large and essential a part of
American life; he has been trained
down to the lowest means of SUBJ
sistence. Without the American
home, the isolation OF families and
the influences of family ties, our
forms of society, gov ernment and
civilization would he impossible.
Is it right to subject the American
laborer to this competition? How
many ages will it require to reduce
his real wants to his necessity? TO
bring American labor to the Asiatic
level, is to ask the American to
abjure home and family and sub.
stitute at once for his own charac.
ter that which the Asiatic has in
herited through the blood of an hun
dred generations. We are often
compelled from the necessities of
language to speak of labor as an
| abstraction. 1t is not. 1t means
blood and brains. 1t means man
hood and womanhood. 1t means
life. Before this gorgeous Capitol
of the nation; before all the trap
pings and adornments of luxury
and taste; before art, literature,
science; before government and
law, comes the necessity for bread
and before that the laborcr's toll.
Do not tlatter yourselves, Mr.. Pres
ident and Senators, that you can
preserve American society and de-
stroy the conditions on which it
rests. Do not fiatter yourselves
that you can preserve the inde-
pendendence of American citizens
and destroy the independence of
American laborers.
Senator Booth then proceeded to
state q number of the familiar ar
guments in support of the bill.
No Vote ON she chinese Bur.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14th.-The
Senate, at $40, adjourned until II
tomorrow, without voting on the
Chinese bill. The adjournment was
out of courtesy to Hamlin, who
wished to speak on the bill and
was not prepared tonight. The
bill has gained strength to-day and
its passage early tomorrow after
naon may be confidently expected.
Caucus of Democratic Senators.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14th--The
caucus of Democratic Senators to-
day was almost wholly in favor of
providing for tho repeal of the test
oath in the manner indicated at
the joint Democratic caucus of
Monday night. Whether it would
be proper to attach the proposition
referring to the drawing of jurors
and the amendment for the repeal
of the election law to the appro-
prIation bill, were very generally
discussed and the prevailing opin-
ion was opposed to such action.

SOME days ago we were taken to
task by our contemporary, the
Erening ErpresS, for saying that
scrip was being issued to members
of the Constitutional Convention
for the time in excess of the one
hundred days. session of that body
provided for by law. We also
stated that this scrip had been dis
counted by brokers to some extent.
We may have been inexact in
the last statement, for
shrewd moneyed men prob
ably perceive that these scrip
certificates are not worth the paper
they are written on. Yester-
days kilograms, however, show
that Mr.. Mem. Shafter moved that
the President of tue Convention
should sign no more scrip or claims
for compensation for the extra ses-
sion. Mr.. Mem. Skaters motion
was promptly tabled. We COM
mend this fact to the attention of
the Express. 1t will probably lead
it to think that it was somewhat
hasty in taking issue with US on q
subject which was u matter OF uni
versal newspaper comment. Some
of these certificates were sold to
brokers until it became apparent
that the public sentiment was dead
against overriding the plain intent
of the law, and brokers then be-
came wary. Patriotism is never so
interesting as when there is no
mercenary element in it.

Smith. He said he knew nothing
of tile introduction of the bill until
it was introduced by Mr.. Purdy,

Purdy said he introduced the bill
at the solicitation of friends at
Yuma and that Mr.. Fitch was not
spoken to about it.
In the House last night there
was considerable discussion over
the appointment of Governor Ere
mont to proceed to Washington
and use his influence for the revok.
