A CHINESE OFFICER.

It has been asserted and denied, as
occasion required, that Chinese could
: not become citizens Of the United States
under the Burlingame treaty on the
same terms as other aliens, by comply
ing with the provisions of the naturali-
cation laws. Now proof positive is
furnished that Chinamen are not only
naturalized but appointed to office in
the Eastern States. In New York
City, few days ago, Chinese mer-
chant named Tom Lee, who has been a
fcitizen for several yeays, was created a
deputy Sheriff at his ewn request and
authorized to perform all the duties of
Sheriff in the district in which he re-
sides. He is the first Chinaman who
has been given any Office in the coun-
try Doubtless many other Chinese
will follow his example and become
naturalized. When any considerable
number of them are admitted to citi-
zsnship, then they viii be courted by
the politicians for the purpose of secur-
ing their votes, and as they will be
most likely to adopt the Conkling and
Cameron plan and vote as unit, they
can exert z strong Influence in the local
elections, unless, meanwhile, the Unit
ed States Courts decide that John can
not, on account Of his color, become
Z nlturalized.

mental medicine, but has stood the test
of years, giving satisfaction in every

Notes From the Great Cattle Range.
HARVEY VALLEY, May Is, 1880.
EDITOR SILVER STATE: "A few words
from this section regarding the Winter,
the cattle and the Indians. The Win
ter was severe here and much snow
fell. A steady snow storm, which
lasted two days and nights, killed about
twelve per cent. of the cattle.
Occasionally some interested parties
try to get up an Indian scare here, but
do not succeed. We have large In
dian Reservation here, but not an In.
dian there or anywhere near there. A
worthless old vagabond, backed by a
few interested men, is trying to get up
an Indian excitement, to prevent Fort
Harvey from being abandoned. The
whites have no use for this fellow, and
the Indians will not have him, and /
understand he is now in Winnemucca.
His creditors would be glad to see him,
or rather what he owes them.

Some two weeks ago the men en-
ployed at the Omaha Smelling Works
struck for an advance of twenty per
cent. in wages. This was not acceaed
to by the owners of the works, and last
Saturday one hundred colored men
from Kansas City, Leavenworth land
st. Joe arrived at Omaha ON a special
train, and marched into the works. A
number of them were armed with guns
and revoIvers, and as the white strikers
were unprepared for such an ernergen-
cy, the negroes were not molested.
This flank movement created great ex-
element among the strikers, who de-
termined to seize the arms of the militia
companies and drive out the colored
men by force. Better and wiser coun-
Gel prevailed, however, and the attack
was abandoned and strategy resorted
to- A committee of the strikers con-
ferred with the colored men, and offered
to pay their expenses back to their
homes if they would leave. This prop
osition was accepted, and while the
money for the purpose was being col
iected the workmen held meeting,
which the negroes attended in body,
and having withdrawn from the smelt-
ting works, were enthusiastically re-
ceived. In the afternoon the working
men, numbering one Thousand, includ-
ing the white strikers and negroes,
paraded the streets, headed by band
of music. The Governor, fearing vio-
lence, called out the militia. The
strikers completely captured those who
were brought to take their places, and
the negroes left for their homes in
Kansas and Missouri.
