. NEW CHINEsE DANGER.

The Chinese are likely to succeed in
causing Mexico to enact a law giving
Chinese the right to Mexican citizen
ship. They are likely to succeed, be-
cause they are adroit d~iplomatists. have
money and know where to put it so that
it will do the most good. Mexican
statesmen are usually quite amenable to
a skillful combination of diplomacy and
gold coin.-San Francisco Report.
The question is asked what can the
United States do about it? The answer
is that our Government must take steps
to protect our people from this new form
of Monaghan invasion. Uncle Sam is
great and strong enough now to go
beyond the limits of the Monroe doctrine.
He may say to all the world that nothing
shall be done on this continent of Amer
lea to threaten the citizens of his domain.
1t is fortunate that, at last, after years
of laborious explanation by the Senators
and Congressman Of the Pacific Coast,
the people of the United States have
generally a tolerable understanding of
the Chinese question. The religious en-.
thusiasts of the East, who still cherish a
brotherly feeling for Cinnamon, may
themselves learn something of the actual
merits of this question by viewing it in
its latest phase. The fact is, a limited
immigration of Cinnamon into the United
States is much less to be dreaded than
the opening of a hood-gate through which
the scum of China's swarming populace
may pour into Mexico. Massed on the
soil of our n~eighboring Republic, as mere
foreign t~oilers, it will be as hard to keep
them beyond our borders as it is to bar
out rats from a graveyard. But let them
get a foothold there as citizens in full
feather, the United States will, perhaps,
be embroiled, through them, with Mex
leo and, possibly, with the powers of
Europe which may raise a question of in
~ternational right in the premises, for the
sake of starting a row for their own pur-
purposes. China is forced to get rid of
her surplus population and it will keep
flowing out somewhere. There is a
natural law, but the sooner Uncle Sam
says that the tide shan't come this way, |
directly or indirectly, the easier and
better it will be.

THE CAUSE OF PEsTILENCE

The news from the region on the Ken
tucky-Virginia border is not yet definite
enough to indicate the source of the
plague which has resulted in so many
violent deaths and the distressful stop
page of all business and work, the dead
outnumbsring the living. 1t has been
supposed that the frightful disease could
be traced to impurities in the water
drank, but whether this be so or not
seems doubtful. An exchange says that
evils resulting from the use of contain
mated water in the ordinary sense are
not as q rule developed suddenly; and
though bad water can do a great deal of
harm, yet it acts commonly by the pro-
duction of low and fatal fevers and not
by the production of an acute and rapid
disease. There is some irritant poison,
perhaps, involved in this case, and as
the region is one where there are mineral
springs, some substances not commonly
contained in the water may have recently
found their way into it.

KEEP OFF THE FRONT SEATS.


The SENTINEL contained yesterday q
dispatch saying that it was proposed in
San Francisco to send on to Washington,
to take part in Cleveland's Inauguration
ceremonies, two companies Of the Third
Regiment, N. G. c. 1t is estimated
that the cost eff this display would not
be less than $l2,O 900, which is a good
deal Of money to throw away for mere
pomp's sake. Besides, we cannot see
why California Democrats should feel
like making such an effort to be con.
spicuously represented on the occasion,
when Cleveland got left in their State
by over Il, 1000 majority, and when, also.
their candidate for Governor, Gen. Stone
man, two years before was elected by
$4,000 votes. The Daily Report sums
up the situation nicely thus:

effect next Monday, have decided to accept

Crescent steel works, who were reduced
from 81 25 to 81 per day, have also ac-
cepted. Unless the trade improves within

day this disciple Of simon pure Republic

THE number of entertainments on the
part of federal office holder almost
exceeds belief. 1t does seem that very
large number of The goyernmnnt appoin-
tees believe that they are given the
position to enable them to steal from
the national treasury. The telegraph
yesterday states that Col. BURNSIDE,
disbursing officer of the post-ofiice was
indicted for embezzling $4,000. This is
but repetition of announcements made
almost weekly. Another remarkable
feature about all these criminal charges
is that these culprits in nearly every
instance are acquitted, after being sub
jected to a mockltrial. Can any rejecting
man doubt that there should be change
in the administration of national affairs
and that other and new men shonld
have the handling and dlsbursing of the
nations finances? The country has
been robbed and swindled out of enough
in the last twenty years to pay Off the
national debt twice over, and so long as
the Republican party remains in power
THIS state of affairs will be continued.
