Free Trade in Chinese Actors.

In spite Of the rigorous Anti Chinese
law Celestial actors are free to come and
90 among US at their will. They are
not "laborers,' but "professional gen
tlemen." Under the Anti-Chihese law
they are privileged class.
Such is the effect of decision Just
rendered by United States District Judge
Deadly in re Ho King. When King
reached Portland, Oregon, from the
Flowery Kingdom he was not allowed to
land, because he was looked upon as a
vile laborer" and had not the requisite
certificate 10 pass him through the Gus
tom House. He appealed to the Court
and pleaded that he was an actor and
not laborer Judge Deadly ruled that
the law excluding "both skilled and un
skilled laborers" applies only to "per-
sons who performed physical labor for
another for wages. 1t does not, there
fore, include an actor any more than il
does a merchant or teacher" The pur-
pose Of the law, as explained by Judge
Deadly, is to prevent Chinese laborers
from competing with other laborers in
this country "But," he adis. "a Chi.
nese actor engaged in dramatic repre-
sentations upon the stage of Chinese
theatre seems so far removed from such
competition as it is possible for person
TO he"
Here is something for the tariff pro
tectioniss to look after. The anti-Chi
nese statute proves to be wholly made
quate to kaepout slmond-eyed PLAYERS
Now let the protectionists put heavy
tariff duty On then in order that ou
own stars and stock actors may be dull
pro- ected against these cheap Asiati,
professionals. N. Y. Herald.

The Recent Storm in New Rampshire
and Maine.

CONCORD November 25.h.-Immsnse dam
age has been wrought by the recent gale in
the forests in Cka,hsm. this State, and scwn
ovsr the border in Maine. Thousands Of
acres Of valuable foress trees wsra wholly de-
stroyed. All of the old and a great deal Of
the new growth was practically destroyed.
Where the timber is not broken it is torn
and matted and tangled in debris so O. to be
slmost worthless. In many Instances the
homes of woodchoppers are ruined, and
much suffering will ensue this winter.
