THE CHINESE TROUBLE ~ !IE Ms.
The condition of the Chinese question
in the Western States and Territories -
despite restrictive legislation, far from
being satisfactory. The recent outbreak
in Wyoming Territory, where numbers of
unoiicnding Cinnamon, indisputably with
murdered by Il mob and the still more r.
cent threatened outbreak Of the same char
actcr in Washington Territory are fresh
in the minds of all, and there is apprehcn-

in their investigation of these outragcs,
and it is but just to say they are traceahle

the United States. engaged i'll competition
with Chinese labDrcrs. Race prejudice is
the chief factor in originating these dis

hostile to its internal power and security,
may not be questioned. even where there
is no treaty stipulation on the subject
