As the Democratic party is a
party of dead issues it is only con-
sistent that Democratic candidates
should cling desperately to the Anti
Chinese agitation, and talk violently
about their prejudices on the only
subject about which they dare ex-
press an unqualified opinion. Dem
ocratic consistency, however, will as
usual have pawned its jewels when
candidates are nominated who en-
ploy Chinese, and while making
profit from that class of labor make
atenement for this sin of commission
by never emitting, when opportunity
offers, fierce expression of bitter
prejudice against the race. Talk
will cover multitude of sins in a
Democratic convention. tits neither
faith nor works, but talk which is
the key that will open tie gate to
office, the heaven of the Democratic
politician, and talk is the one thing
which with members of that party
is cheaper and more abundant than
Chinese cheap labor.

THE Sacramento Bee says
there can be no excuse for the action
of the "Union" printers of Phila-
delpbia in deciding that women
must be excluded from the printing
offices in that city. Any man, or set
of men, that is afraid to compete
with women in fair race for live
lihood, ought to starye to death.
Women are capable of becoming
just as good compositors as men.

which may be construed as resenting
an affront from any impudent second

head to bite its thumb at US and
neither the international policy nor
the politicians will allow anything
which may give oAfense to the for
