BURNING WORDS.
AN OUTRAGED REPUBLICAN
SPEAKS RIGHT OUT.

trayed In People or Violated
Their Pledges on h Antf-Chi-
csc Question.
Frank Pixley Of the Argonaut has the
power Of expressing what everybody feels
better than anybody else can. His elo-
quence is hardly equaled, certainly not
surpassed, by that of any journalist in the
United States. There is hardly ever a
time that he is not disagreeable to some
body whom his writings hurt. But he has
a way of talking straight out, when he has
the humor for it, that makes his words
live and fiery. In his moods of candor
there is nc sniveling or beating about the
bush with him. He has the reputation Of
not being always as frank as he seems, but
when he is in earnest his earnestness is
u~nmistakable. He was in dead earnest
when he gave vent to the following gall:
T~REAcHERY AND FALSE PRETENsEs.
This evil must be arrested. The Demo-
cratic party has been true to its pledges in
this respect. The Republican party has
been false to all its professions. 1t has
betrayed the people, and it has done it
under false %pretenses, and with lying and
false excuses. The facts are before us. 1t
is the first time that a party President
has, in ignorance and for self-advance-
ment, destroyed his party by the treasona-
able betrayal Of a declared and accepted
political principle. 1t is the first and only
time in the history Of American politics
that party Senators and a party President
deliberately planned to immediate a portion
of the party, because the States directly
involved had not enough Presidential cleo
tors to make them formidable in a Presi-
dental campaign, or enough delegates in
q national convention to make their votes
decisive of a candidate.
~EPUBLIcA PRESIDENT AND PARTY.
There is no Government on the civilized
earth over which rules emperor, kaiser, or
king, and which pretends to have given a
written constitution to its people, which
could have survived the shock Of so mon
strous an outrage as is this i~nsolent exer-
else Of Republican party .treachery. 1t is
only the citizens Of a republican govern
ment, and that administered by an Ameri-
can people, who would tamely submit to
this unparalleled outrage; and they sub
nit only because the consequences of this
most shameful veto are for the present
confined to the Pacific Coast. To the
other ingredients which go to the makeup
of this most treacherous betrayal is that Of
cowardico. If New England and the East
had felt the pressure of the Chinese inya-
sion, there would have been scenes of yio-
lence which could not nave been restrained
by law. They have not felt the present in
convenience. They nave not been men-
aced by the coming danger. They have
been unmindful Of our troubles, and in
different to our complaints. When we say
they, we mean the Republican President
and the Republican party; President by
act of God and the accident OF assassina-
ton; the Republican party, victorious by
a betrayal Of It's platform and principles.
ARTHUR's SUPERINTENDENT.
Had General Garfield declared during
the Presidential canvass that, in event Of
the passage of a bill restricting Chinese
immigration for the term Of twenty years,
he would veto it, he would o have re-
ceiyed ten thousand votes within the Chi
nese belt Of States If Senators Edmunds,
Sherman, Hoar, and other Republican
leaders had declared themselves in opposi-
ton to a restrictive measure embracing the
provisions Of the one vetoed, a Democratic
administration would to-day have been in
power at Washington. The fact cannotb be
disguised that a Republican Senate has re-
fused to assist in the enactment Of law
deliberately and intelligently promised.
There is no possible mode of suppressing
the fact that Mr.. Arthur has, for his own
self-advancement, been guilty of abandon
one OF the principles which his party
itself to maintain.
DON'T BLAME EpuBLIcAN
At present this Chinese question is a
political one; IL is to be worked out by po-
litical methods, and it will not become
any one who are Republicans to blame
Republicans il they shall deem it
best to cast their destinies with a party
which, on this question has never betrayed
the people, and has never violated its
THE PRACTICALLY SOLVED.
The Argonaut would be practical. Let
US send to Boston some examples of our
population; let US give them a
Of the superior quality OF these
specimens of brotherhood. The Argonaut
will take pleasure in heading a subscrip-
ton list with $500 to send some carloads
Of our Asiatic brothers and sisters for
adoption into Beacon Hill society. Let us
send one special car filled with gamblers,
accompanied by a one-stringed fiddle, to
the game Of tan; one car with prosti-
tutes, to open up their vocation in Milk
street or Maiden Lane; n car as q
smoker" for opium, and when Boston is
let it be thrown open for use OF its
boys and girls; one car we would fill with
and with those diseased with
smallpox and the other terrible
maladies that are the result OF 1900 years
Of crime, poverty, hunger and neglect.
q colony be formed, a Sunday School
be opened, and a kindergarten for object
teaching. Let every pious old maid OF
Yankee land tackle an Asiatic sinner and
wrestle with him for his souls salvation.
Let every New Highlander pitch into and
try his luck at snatehing an Asiatic brand
from the everlasting burning. Let the
sharps go for the Heather Chinee,
and rescue them from the wrath to come.
H PLAGUE.
These cars we will send through in
bond, dropping a specimen of the females
for Plumb of Kansas, and one Of the fat
and well-fed for Ingalls,. Logan should
have some dropped down upon him in
Illinois. We would not pass John Sher-
man OF Ohio without one Of each kind.
Little Mr.. Harrison Of Indiana should
have 9 small boy. and Don Cameron Of
Pennsylvania should have the fiddler to
music for his clans. To Anthony,
and Edmunds, and Lapham we would give
invitations to the smoking-car. There Is
drunk that brings after it SO acceptable
afternoon nap as that Of opium. To
Joe Hawley and other small Fry Of New
England and elsewhere we would give the
run OF the shebang, and when there was
further demand for the prostitutes, we
would turn them all over to Mr.. Hoar OF
Massachusetts, and his accomplished asso-
ciate. Mr.. Dawes. There is no education
like that Of experience. No one knows all
about the smallpox until he has had it.
We would be delighted to innoculate New
England with the virus Of our Chinese
diseases. We would be glad to make Bos-
