Mr.. Walker continued We are told
the other party has come down to bust
ness and begged the Chinese to leave.
There 10 nothing that shakes in its boots
like capital. These capitalists did not
see anything, but nevertheless they got
frightened they thought they saw q
shadow We held that shadow up before
them, and IL was that kind Of love that
brought them TO as. We have only got
TO follow the same course, and We will
keep them trembling and the Chinese
will 90. There 10 another class Of Chi
nsse, OF q different color, who are as
bad, II not worse, than their yellow
brethren. But We will attend to the
white Chinese after We have ridden this
community of the yellow bo.s, and We
will Be- a. strong against the white Chi
namsn as We are against the sons OF the
FloweFy Kingdom. A congress has TEEN
called. to convene at Olympia on the
Path inst, to devise plans and perfect
arrangements TO drive the Chinese from
the Pacific coast. Wait and watch, and
you will see that what tell you is 80.

feel proud to stand here tonight,
considering the import of the reports,
and considering that We have accom-
plished so much in 50 short a time. I
did not think we could eXpel that horde
of foreigners 30 soon, without shedding
q drop OF blood Of God or man. We
have put up with vituperation of all
kinds, but thank God the opposition
has been withdrawn, and the people are
a unit. False statements may have in
duced the Government to proclaim
against as. They will find ont their
mistake. We were charged with violst
ing Law. We wanted TO expel the Chi
nese, peacesbly IL possible, and We have
nearly succeeded, but We decided they
should go, but peaoeably, by all means.
Well, they are absut gone. and nobody
killed. The Government 10 master of
the situation, and the President rules
supreme. Mayor Yssler's property has
not been harmed, and | think il
