TROUBLEIN SAN FRANCISCO.

Th" City ON the Eve Of q Riot
Terrible Retribution Threatened
by Kearuey's Gang-rhe Police
Increased.
The unemployed working men Of San
Francisco yesterday called upon Alex
ander Sharon, of the Palace Hotel, and
he informed the leaders that he would
not allow them to interfere with his
business. The leaders, informing the
crowd of This reply, are reported to have
said that, in their opinion, "it was nc
harm to kill such a man." "A Mrs.
Smith, who has lately been prominent
in the agitation, Suggested dynamite
as means Of removing the Chinatown
nuisance"
In the afternoon there was confer.
ence of the Ward Presidents and leading
working men, Dennis Kearney presiding
and Mayor Kalloch being present. Res
olutions were adopted promising every
exer,ion to preserve good order, and as
sist the Board of Health in carrying
out his work 4; advising the cessation Of

crease Of the police force, and conclud.
ing with the following:
Resolved, That while We discounte-
nance all lawlessness, and warn our
friends among the working men against
it. yet we wish 1t understood, and give
distinct and deliberate notice, that on
preparation of any outrage upon any
of our friends and leaders, or the en-
ployment of any police, or other force
to interfere with the peaceful operation
of law in the abatement Of the Chinese
nuisance or any accession to the infa.
nous demands Of the craven Chinese
Consul, Mr.. Bee, for foreign military
interference, we stand forth ready to
assert and maintain our rights, avenge
our friends, and visit upon the low de-
signing minions Of power, backed up
though they may be by cowardly capi-
talists and corporations, punishment SO
swift and terrible that the reader of
history will shudder at the record
We have kept peace We intend to
keep peace, but We are not to be
trihed with. The law must be obeyed,
the Chinese must go. We know our
rights. and knowing dare maintain
them" Mayor Kalloch expressed
approval of the above resolutions.
The Board of Supervisos of San
Francisco, passed an ordinance last
evening increasing the police force to
400 hundred men, the ostensible rea-
son being to give employment to many
of the unemployed. A committee of
the Chamber of Commerce has decided
to raise funds sufficient to employ sew
eral hundred men on some public work
at 81 per day.

The resignation of W. C. Spruance,
Esq, as U. S. District Attorney for Del.
aware, which has been expected for
some time, will, it is said, certairly take
place this week. rhe reason of the
resignation being that his official duties
interfered with his large and conots Mt
ly increasing private practice. The
resignation will be made to take effect
on the appointment of his successor,
which will undoubtedly be done at
once. There is little doubt but that
John c. Patterson, Esq, will fill the
vacancy, his name being the only one
prominently mentioned for the position.
Mr.. spruance has held the office since
1876, and made most efficient officer.

Rev York Republican Convention

The Republican Convention to elect
delegates from the State of New York tc
the Chicago Convention met yester-
day at Utica. The Blaine men, who
were led by Senator Foster and Gener-
al Curtis asserted the right of the dis
tricts to name delegates, and it was
practically conceded. When resolu.
tions recommending General Grant
were proposed Senator Conkling made
an able speech in their favor, designed
to make all the delegates feel that they
would be in honor bound to abide by
the decision of the Convention. Sena-
tor Foster moved an amendment nam
ing no one, and on a division it was
lost by a vote of 2l7 to 1870. Subse-
quently several anti-Grant delegates
decided to go with the majority. A
strong feeling of attachment for Mr..
Blaine was manifested even by the pro-
nounced supporters of General Grant.
There was lively skirmishing through
out the day, but in the end good feel
ing and harmony prevailed. The del
egates-at-large are Senator Conkling,
Governor Cornell, General Arthur, and
J. +. Warren, of Buffalo.

FLOP OVER.

A white Mans Party Organ advO'
eMtes Negro suffrage Provided
the Negroes VOte the Democratic
Ticket.
Frou the Gazette, February %.
SEE TO IT, That THE NEGRO BE NOT
ABUSED FOR VoTING THE DEMOCRATIC
TIcKET.-We understand from good
authority that a number of colored
voters desire to cast their votes Tor the
Democratic ticket this fall. But here
tofore ii has been dangerous to a color
cd mans life to vote the Democratic
ticket III any part of Delaware. Where
he as employed by Radicals he was
sure OF being discharged if he did SO
or he was spotted by all negro clubs,
and even expelled from the colored
churches, and the society of his race in
any neIghborhood, and the ostracism
followed him whithersoever he went
insemuch that his earthly peace
was totally destroyed. Now 1t is
time tnat an end was put to this state
Of things, and we call upon the Demo.
Gratis in all parts OF the Peninsula, to
see to it that this persecution for the
exercise of the right Of suffrage has a
stop put to it. Where It is known that
colored men intend to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket in Delaware, and come
forward and say SO, let the Democrats
in their meetings pass resolutions ex-
pressive of determination to arrest all
such outrages by prosecuting the often.
ders and protecting the inoffensive in
their right. Let no negro who is known
70 have uttered threats of violence
against any other negro who wishes to
vote the Democratic ticket be employed
by Democrat, and when such threats
are persisted in, let the offensive negro
te arrested charged with such offense,
and made to give bonds to keep the
peace. Sac to it that the negro men
who choose to vote the Democratic
ticket be not molested and that they be
allowed to exercise the right of suffrage
unmolessed.
Heretofore negro churches have been
made little less on various occasions
than headquarters for negro political
clubs. No negro who dared to vote the
Democratic ticket has been allowed to
remain member; and these churches
have been sunk to the level OF secret
societies where the wrath of the unedu-
Gated has been cultivated against the
poor helpless man who dared TO vote as
he Judged best. Now we hope to see
these churches sustained undisturbed
but unless this persecution is stopped
we say that the Democrats should cease
10 contribute one penny to keep them
up. They must cease to be secret
political club houses in which Radical
whites hold political haranguos to urge
negroes On to the persecution of their
race. and to do injury to the whites, to
ADVANTAGE the interests of white Office
seeking Republicans.
And We call upon the Democratic
clubs throughout the State to pass resc :
lutiors expressive of their determine
tion to protect the negroes in their
right to vote the Democratic ticket.

MEssRs. EDIToRs.-Thanks are due
to you for the airing you give to those
noble souls who twenty years ago
thought they had the world by string.
What fine set of prophets they have
turned cut to be, since time has proved
them to be such lovers of their country
in the past. This is just the time to
give us little of the past history of
some of those noble Democrats. What
would the Senator give just now to
erase history from the memory of man
How much easier Col. Whiteley would
sleep these nights if " traitors, perjur

Show up those parties to light and air,
