1T is nothing new for Mr. Pixloy to
roar in this ferocious fashion. Some
years ago in addressing q public meet
ing III San Francisco lie advised the
people to march down to the docks OF
tho Pacific Mail Steamship Company
and burn their steamers, as hint that
that no moro coolies are wanted. Later,
however, when Dennis Kearncy gavo
the fame sort OF advice Mr.. Pixley
favored him with the full resources OF
