An Idaho Editor on the Chinese.

There is one point in the Chinese prob
lem which we have never seen mentioned
by any journal, says the editor OF the
Weiser idaho, Leader. 1t is that the
employment OF Chinese labor retards the
growth of the country for the reason that
il usurps positions that would afford en-
ployment to tens OF thousands of women
of the cast who would otherwise come to
this slope and in course of time become
married women and the mothers of free
American citizens. The east has re-
dundant female population. On this
slope the converse is the case. Labor,
whether male or female, will 60 where
there is a demand for it us naturally as
water will run down hill. II the wage
seeker has not the necessary means to
pay for transportation while such de-
mand exists, capital will surely furnish it,
California, Nevada, Washington, Oregon
and Idaho, needed cooks, chambermaids,
laundresses, table walters, etc. These
would have come from New England,
New York and other Eastern States in
large numbers to supply such demand,
but the coolie came and all avenues for
female employment was cut off. Thus
each Chinaman represented what might
have been an American home.
II there had been no importation Of
Chinese, the male and female population
of east and west would have become
more cqualized, with the most inconcciv-
able benefit to both sections and the gen.
eral welfare of the whole country. West
ern men would have had wives and
homes. There would havs been less dis
sipation and swagger, and the rough
edges Of our people would have been
pretty well knocked off. In Idaho,
for instance, there are about four
men to one woman, and the same
may be said OF Nevada and Washington.
In Massachusetts, the women are more
than 10000 in excess OF the male popula-
ton. This state OF affairs is demoraliz-
ing to both sexes and sections
There are comparatively few Chinese
women in the country. They rear but
few children and the fewer the better
for our civilization. Nearly, II not all OF
them are harlots, and their presence is
demoralizing to our people, especially to
the young. To what degree of prosperity
this slope would have attained were it
not for the advent OF this class of people
can only be surmised.

The s.Rag Baby"

Mr.. Hoyt, of Boston. the author OF "a
Bunch OF Keys" and"A Rag Baby" has
struck the keynote OF strain of humor
perfectly in harmony with the American
public. The former piece has earned
more money than most other attractions
on the road this season, and the latter
convulses with laughter crowds OF people
who have thronged the theatre nightly.
MIR. Hoyt is to be congratulated for two
reasons: First, rs benefactor who kills
the blue devils in this work-a-day world !;
second, rs the factor OF his own and sew
eral other peoples fortunes, for "a Rag
Baby" is destined to become a sort OF
travelling mint or gold mine, and also q
pharmacy OF fun. 1t will doubtless enjoy
Il long run in this city. Mr.. Frank Dan
iels is the ruling spirit. He is genuine
comedian, not mimic. He has keen
appreciation OF humor, and could create a
new part, we should think, and invest it
with originality and distinctive individu-
atty. He has made decided hit in this
city, and will, of course, repeat this sue
cess.-New York Telegram.

Had n Rul1y Time.

Samuel came home the other day from
school with his clothes torn, and burst
into the sitting-room where his mother
and sister were planning with some ladies
how to advance the good manners and
gentleness of their youthful offspring.
His mother had already descanted at
length ON Samuel, his virtues and help
fulness to his playmates.
"Why, here he is himself" she proudly,
shouted as he came in, threw his second
reader on the piano, and unobtruslyely
stepped on the kittens tail.
dWhat have you done at school to-
day ?" asked one of the visitors. =.
ooh, had bully time" And with
out a moments hesitation he opens with
n grin begrimed mouth, and in the
cavity thus created appears a bloody
ridge along the jaw, minus four or five
teeth. "Oh, ma, licked two boys! big
ger than am. Can't have my picture
taken with my mouth open to send to

GENERAL GRANT FALLING. The Disease Making Sure aud steady
 PrOgreHe


 MT. MoGnEaoR, July 5.-General Grant passed the day with as little discomfort as could be hoped for He was able to ait on the porch for nearly two hours this afternoon, partaking of some food while there. The rest of the day he kept his room. although the weather was perfect. He had a good night as nights go with him, but he wanted to rest all the morning and after his outing he slept for two hours out of four that he spent in his room. He came out and paced the porch this evening. Dr. Douglass soon after joined him when he was ready to be prepared for the night
 The indications pointed to good night at Il o'clock, when the general fell asleep.
 pr. Sands, after his arrival here yester- day, held conference with Dr. Douglass, in which General Grant himself took part In referring to his own condition he said that he believed that all that nature and the healing art could do had been done for him, and that if the disease he was suffering from were curable he thought he would be cured. As to the final termination, he expressed his great fear of suffocation and said that in his own opinion, if he did die from the effects of it, it would be from exhaustion. It is under stood that the physicians in attendance intimated that if death did result it would be brought about by g loss of vigor. Dr. Sands, after being three hours at the cot tage, left by the 2:45 train for Saratoga. He said that he found the general weaker than on his last visit, but that the local conditions refer ring to the throat-were apparently not any worse than at the previous examina- tion. All the pleasant surroundings of the general and the vigilant care that was taken of him by Dr. Douglass had helped consld- erably to mitigate the painfdlness and the monotony of the progress of the disease, but it was unquestionably making slow but steady rosress.

HARTFORD CITY GUARD
Having a Fine Time tp the Ca,skal

Having a Fine Time In the CaI skIIIH.
 There were unusually lively times at the Grand Hotel in the Catskills Saturday and yesterday because of the presence of the City Guard of Hartford, Conn, and the City Guard Veteran association with the Spring field band. Many of the soldiers had their wives and daughters with them and the broad piazzas were filled with people all day long on the Fourth, drinking deeply of the mag nifcent scenery and healthful air. There were one or two showers, but the genial rays of old Sol soon dispelled the gloom which al- ways accompanies the rain iii the mountains. The band discoursed fine music during the day, much to the delight of the hundreds of pleasure seekers. Saturday morning at 10 o'clock there was guard mount and in the af- ternoon General Carr and staff in full uniform reviewed the Yankee soldiers, hundreds of spectators coming from the surrounding sum. mer homes to view the scene. Saturday evening there was hop in the capacious pa~lor of the hotel, and there wss also a brilliant pyrotechnic display.
 The visitors from the Nutmeg State, num- bering two hundred and fety, leave for home this Monday morning.

President Jones ReaL Lses To Eater Into
 Arbitration.
 CHICAGO, July 5.-The reply of President Jones to the Mayors letter is to the effect that he fails to see anything to arbitrate; that there is no dissatisfaction among the employees in regard to wages, but that they demand that the company shall waive all right to hire or to discharge any all its employees when it sees fit. He says no em- ploye has been discharged without good and sufficient cause and as representative of a law-abiding corporation he declines to meet on equal terms lot of men who have been making riotous demonstrations for a number of days and who seem to have lost all regard for law and order. He desires that the Mayor shall give the company ample protec- tion in running their cars or acknowledge his inability to do SO. He could then call upon the sheriff or the Governor, or both.
 Mayor Harrison tonight issued 8 procla- nation ordering all people to keep as much as possible off the streets along the car lines tomorrow Another effort will be made to run in the morning with the protection of two or three hundred policemen and proba- ply the scenes of Friday will be repeated.
