SATURDAY. ..... FEBRUARY Is, 1882.
mILL.ER,s

Senator Miller Of California made a
very forcible speech in the United States
Senate last Tuesday, on the subject OF
the Chinese evil on the Pacific Coast.
He presents the case with extraordinary
freshness and vigor. The following para
graphs are worthy the attention of the
Eastern sentimentalist
There was an irrepressible conflict be-
tween the civilization Of the East and
West. The effect Of the presence Of this
sterile race upon the more impressible
American should be considered. Already
in California the white farm laborer who
is forced into competition with them,
adopts their nomadic habits; has no home
in the family he serves, but is q blanket
man who works in the field during plant
ing and harvest seasons, and roams the
remainder of the year in search OF other
employment; his shelter, the straw stack
and his food anything he can get. The
great wheat growers in their immense
operations are thus relieved from employ
ing continuous labor, and the result Is
large farming to the exclusion OF small
American homes. In the manufacturing
districts this results in hoodlumism, which
draws the Young OF both classes to idle
ness, in the streets,
The Chinese as o people remain here
and their number is constantly increasing.
They have ultimately conquered every
Territory they have invaded. Their in
vasion Of Mongolia, Msntura, Thibit,
Turcosa and PHILIPPINE Islands, indeed
by the overrunning these countries the
exodus from the Province OF Kwang Tvng
to the United States had been in progress
for many years and had this hegira 10 the
same ratio as if the population had been
general in all the provinces OF China and
facilities for transfer therefrom the same,
there would have been already in the
United States more than 5000, 600 able
bodied Cinnamon. Millions of half
starved Chinese OF the North Provinces
were eager to come. During the late bust
ness depression, while thousands of white
men and women were walking the streets
Of San Francisco, begging for work,
cargos Of Chinese regularly arrived by the
great steamers and were conveyed to the
distributing dens Of the Six Companies,
and within three or four days thereafter
every Chinaman was in his place at work,
while the white unemployed were still
walking the streets. Since business has
revived the excess OF these arrivals have
averaged about 900 per month.

THE CANAL,

Though very little has been heard Of
them lately, the promoters and advo.
Gates of a Nicaragua ship canal have not,
1t seems. abandoned their enterprise.
They had a hearing before the House
Committee a few days ago. and the argu.
ments they advanced are said to have
produced q decidedly favorable impress
sion. They urged. among other things,
that by the construction Of a Nicaragua
canal the stipulations and restrictions of
the Clayton ulwer treaty would be
avoided. which is a point worth at least
taking into consideration, though its ten
ableness is open to dispute. But after
all, the great difficulty in the way Of
constructing the canal is the difficulty of
obtaining the immense sum Of money
which the work requires, and there ap-
pears to be no immediate probability
that the difficulty can be overcome.
