COERCION OF EMPLOYEES.

The coercion oil employees - vote the
Republican ticket was the unPrinci-
Piled and viIla;nous method by which
MANY thousand votes were deposited Tor
CART, III yesterday, which, if the voters
had been allowed to exercise their own
preferences, would have been cast Tor
the Democratic candidates.
We do not know that such influences
we're brought to bear 10 any extent in
this locality. The majority OF our man
uiacturers We believe to be too manly
and honorable, and our workingmen
too independent and resolute to admit
of it. But there was unquestionably
very large addition to the Republican
vote in some States secured by such IL
fuences. Especially was this true in
the manufacturing centres in New Jer-
sew. The correspondents OF the New
York dailies from New Jersey, give
abundant proof that this has been
one of the leading influences in
the campaign in that State. \
correspondent Of the HcroH relates
the fol OWL g il cide t, whi,h Cccurr-
ell at the last Republican parade, and 8
significant OF the general feeling;
The parade had halted 4 few moments
when one oil the members OF the Pei
gram < Never Guards left the ranks TO
talk with an intimate friend on the side
walk.
"HoS is il that you are paraiing tC-
night? | thought you favored the cleo
ton oi Hancock? ?" asked the friend.
so | do" was the reIOinder but il
was a question OF march Tonight or
march out Of job in the morning, and
"a have vile and children 10 lock
alter l march tonight"
"Do they compel You 10 march,"
They asked us to, and We know our
bosses too well to refuse. Ny position
would not be worth anything 10 morrow
had refused. Intend to vote Tor Han
cock, and as long as they Do not inter
fere at the ballo. box i will be good
enough to indulge them in parading.
The same correspondent aids in re-
gard to the conduct OF manufacturers:
"Thev have 50 thoroughly scared their
hands that many Oi them 10 10. dare 10
refuse to parade, and many will be
scared into voting for Garfield and Ar
thur because they tear that their bread
will be taken from them. IL is shame
full that such should 30 the case, Gnt
you will observe i'll every Republican
parade hundreds Of men who have never
voted anv bat the Democratic ticket
and never intend to, but these men
have now had a few months work and
dare not refuse the torches placed in
their hands by their Republican mas
ters."
The workingmen allege that they have
been approached in various ways, and
have had circulars forced upon them
and posters stuck up before them in
the workshops, and nothing that the
proprietors could DO ID induce them 10
change their politics hal been lett I'M
done.
One Democratic empioyc OF large
establishment in New Jersey gave the
whole case in the followin: testimony:
"They have not told us in so many
words that We would be discharged but
they have given US to understand that
our positions would he worthless in
case VIC did not parade This is only
one, but is not the least of the repre-
hensib!e tactics which helped alon. the

A CHINAwOMAN STOLEN.
A Business that the Legislature Should
Endeavor TO Suppress.

EnueaNor 10 suppress.
Chinatown was in commoticn yester-
day. The cause of the excitement was
the discovery made by Chinaman,
that his woman for whom he paid some
Ss4OO or SjO0was stolen. twas supposed
that she was taken to Dutch Flat, Cal,
and kilograms were sent to friends
of her bereaved owner at that and other
places along the railroad to-look out for
her. Heretofore it has been the custom
when a Cbinawoman ran away for her
owner to swear out warrant for her
arrest for larceny or sosse other trumped
up charge, SO as to get the officers to
bring her back, after which the COM
planning witness would refuse to testify
against her. The experience of Bow
Ling a heightened Celestial, who made
a business of hunting up fugitive China
women, has ended that manner of pro-
cedure in this part of Ne, ada, as he was
indicted for perjury by Grand Jury
in this county, and was saved from con-
viction for perjury by death. 1t is a
well-known fact, that all the China
women in Nevada, with rare exceptions,
are as much of a mercantile commodity
as cattle. They are bought, and kept
by their owners for the basest purposes
The laws Of the State prohibit slavery,
yet those women are bought and sold,
and if they escape from their owners,
the law is frequently resorted to by
their owners to assist in getting them
back into bondage. The Legislature
should pass law prohibiting, under
heavy penalties, the purchase and sale
of Chinawomen in Nevada.
We have been informed to-day that
the Chinawoman was abducted by some
Carson Chinese, and that Jack Larthen
followed the kidnappers to Mill City
and rescued the Chinawoman, who, it
appears, in this instance, was not will
ing to 90 with her abductors, by whom
she was gagged and bound hand and
foot.

A Popularity of Nevada.

J.. w. Brown, OF the Coyote Ranch,
aear Unionville, experienced considera-
BILE trouble in getting water out OF
Coyote Creek, which runs within fifty
or sixty yards Of his house, so he con-
oluded to sink a well. He did not sus-
pect that he would have to- sink over
forty or fifty feet at the !arthest to find
a plentiful supply of water. When
that depth was reached the ground was
perfectly dry, however, but he kept on
sinking until he had shaft lao feet
deep before he found water. That depth
is probably about the level of the Hum
boldt River, west of Unionville. Ex-
perence has taught people that water
is more easily obtained in the mountains
than in the valleys of Nevada. All the
springs and streams, with the exception
OF few hot springs, rise in the noun
tains, and cold spring is unknown in
the valleys. Tunnels run in dry, barren
mountains invariably encounter water
before great depth is attained, while
in the valleys within few yards OF
living streams, wells have to be sunk to
considerable depth to reach water. 1t
seems to be a peculiarity of Nevada
that water can be found near the sur
face in the highest ranges than in the
lowest valleys, except in the vicinity OF
the sinks of mountain streams.
