The Chinese Question in the Pulpit.
SAN Francisco, April 9sh.-Rsv. DIR.
| Woodbridge delivered discourse this even
| -
the evils resulting from Chinese immigration.
| The reverend gentleman took decided grounds
| against the Chinese coming here in such num-
| bers and maintained that the evil should be
remedied at once, but not by recourse to VIC
| lence. He pictured the terrors of an inunda-
ton by Chinese, and hkened them to the
growth of cancer. He held that an alien
people could not grow together, and as the
| Chinese Government by treaty had given per-
mission to the United States to restrict Mon
golian immigration, and had left such restric-
| ton to the judg ment OF our Representatives,
Lhe could not see the adyisability of President
Arthur's veto.
