FRIDAY
CHINESE IMMIGRATION.
NO. II.

We promised in our last issue to
discuss the policy of Chinese immi-
grafton, in relation to the figures pub
lished by the "Gazette' for the seven
teen months ended May 81, 1885. 1t is
not absolutely necessary TO be exact
about the figures, it being admitted
that there was a large influx of China
men early in 1884. We cannot, of
course, accept our contemporary
statement of the numbers as correct,
its looseness in this respect being
a6undantly demonstrated by us yes
terday. But a score or two more or
less does not affect the point at issue.
Our position is this: That the pol
icy of the present Administration is
now, and has been, to restrict and
discourage male Chinese i'm nIigra-
ton; .and that the 'Gazette," which
accuses it of seeking to "Asiaticise
the Hawaiian Islands," is the organ
and mouth piece of the very party
which has endeavored, by every pos
sIble means, to break down the Gov
eminent regulations and flood the
country with cheap Chinese labor.
The Gazette" and it's friends adopt
the tactics of GIoster in this course;
they do the wrong and first begin to
brawl. Fortunately, however, the
public records furnish evidence which
enables us to present the exact facts
before the country.
In our issue of the 9th ultimO, we
examined the correspondence touch
ing Chinese immigration, which
passed between the Planters Labor
and Supply Company and His EX-
cellency Mr.. Gibson last October, in
which the former urged the immedi-
ate introduction of 1000 Cinnamon,
plus the first installment Of Japanese
immigrants, as the only possible way
of averting a labor panic in 1885.
The P. L. and 5. Company asked for
5000 Chinese laborers during the
year, but assumed that if 1000 were
dumped on the islands at once, they
would possibly suffice with the Japa-
H0SeJ lOI blle IdOOI vi
the present year. The Committee on
Labor also reported:
"The wages of all labOrers now
here and proposed to be brought by
the Board of immigration, are far too
great to permit of sugar production
at existing prices. Is there remedy
for this, and if so, can it be made
available for our relief? Many
petitions haze been made to the Coz
eminent to open The doors to free Chi
nese immigration untU the supply
shall equal the demand, upon fair
terms. As get the Government has not
made favorable dnSaOer to those pc
t;tionS. 1t SeenaG to your Committee
that that WouI1 be q remedy. Can it

The report thea went on to argue
that unrestricted license for the in
f1ux of Chinese" would not 'give
such offense on the Pacific Coast and

:. The FriNllN.H

The July mum Der of 1.-The Friend is an
improvement upon the June issue. If it
keeps on in its present course we shall have
only pleasant words to say about it; but if
it insiduOusly attacks orthodox Chris tianity,
which it unques ton ,biy did in its June
issue, we shall condemn it upon grounds of
common honesty. What the P. c. ADvER-
TIsER believes or disbelieves is not to the
point. The question is whether it is con-
sistent, in professedly orthodox organ, to
sneer at those phrases and doctrines which
have been the comfort and hope of the
Christian Church in all ages. THE Friend
winces at our criticism of last month upon
this point. 1t has had the effect intended,
however. The ADVERTISER is an enemy of
sham and humbug, and there is no more
contemplate sham or humbug to be found
than a church organ which breaks the
bread of Il religious community as it were,
aud sneers at its doctrine. The truth or
falsity of the doctrine does not count at all
in such a case. 1t is question of common
honesty aud honor. 1.-The Friend" having
displayed its penitence in fact, if not in
words, for its June blacksliding, shall have
present forgiveness.

Demand for Port Wine.
THE Argonaut. I

Port wine has been supposed to be out
of fashion, its equity tendencies have led
to it's discontinuance at the dinner table.
But the Feurtreeds, the great wine mer-
chants at Oporto, have published state
ment showing that the number of pipes
exported has steadily increased during the
last fifty years, the increase being espe-
cially marked during the past decade. The
explanation is that port, which was for
merly the favorite beverage Of statesmen,
has become the coveted resource of in

have had occasion lately to read up in
French everything that [ could find on
the subject of bridges. l discover that
the French have more suspension bridges
than any nation on the globe. Their

the structures approximate to the size of

bridges in France that it is impossible to
secure an accurate list of them on this side

II has been decided by the Secretary of the
Treasury to send relief expedition to search
for the crew of the whaling bark Amethyst,
which Is supposed to have been lost in Behrlng
sen. The relief vessel will be either the Cor
win or the Rust, both belonging to the revenue
marine service, and both being at present at
San Francisco. The Corwin Is n famous Arc.
tic cruiser, and III Rust Is new vessel, but
is commanded by Capt. Hooper, the former
minded by Capt. Healy. These two officers
have been directed by telegraph TO consult rs
to the best vessel to send on tho expedition,
and to select a crow. II is expected that the
vessel will be ready to start 10 four days after
n selection is made. The vessel will proceed
direct to Ounalaska, one Of the. Aleutian
islands, where there Is custom house and
will go to Seal island, in Behring sea, nearly
go miles further north. 1t Is thought to be
impossible to proceed further than this point,
but It Is hoped that some tidings of the ship
wrecked men will be received there.
