An anti-Chinese meeting in San
Francisco last Saturday evening was.
attended by 5000 people, represented
by che cigar makers union, the white
cooks and waiters, the boiler makers
union and the sailors union and
the Knights of Labor. The
sentiment Of the meeting was to
boycstt the Chinese in all quarters, an |
to absolutely give them no employ
ment and to buy no cis isars, boots, shoes
or clothing made 10y them, and to hav,
no washing done by them. In fact, the
object is to boycott them in every quar-
tar. Eloquent speeches were m,de by
prominent men, an it is thought that
something practical will come out of it.

If the legislature woull reduce legal
interest to s per cent. perhaps some of
the capital now loaned out would fn'l
its way into new manufacturing enter
prises, says an exchange, Ten per
cent. interest is IA premium on illenesS.
Reduce it to s and force those who
want to make it by converting our raw
material into manufactured goods.
This may possibly lessen the amount
of money TO lend, but with factories
consuming our products and mechanics
and laborers sp ea,lins their money
here instead of abroad, ,ee will need to
borrow less. 1t is folly to talk about
repeating the 1snry law, as means Of
chtapening money by competition. The
crying need Of our SITE is for more
manufactures, but the average man Of
means will not en- 5age il uncertain
enterprises, AS long as he can get 10
per cent secured by first mortgage
Again, factories will give our state
credit with the money lenders of the
East, who will be glad to take per
sent.

alt had been said of him that he was

meant by waving the bloody shirt that
he had sought to renew the animosities
of the war, then there was grave mis-
take, for he had constantly said that

would not hold any confederate soldier

In every town in the Valley, young
men, stout, robust ani willing, can be
seen idly loafing their vigorous days
away. Could these yonng mems idle
hours be utilized in labor the wealth of
our State would be doubled Sitting
around whiting sticks, spinning yarns
and goasipiny over the happenings of
the day, they grow into lazy and in
some instances useless class of men.
Would they work. They have demon
strated that they will. and for small
remuneration. The fact is we have no
manufactures that utilize this idle la
Dor. Work f,r these young men would
mark an epoch in the moral condition
of our future citizens as, at present,
idleness, they are forced to accept but
places them in the NAV OF all the vices
Of the day. Our idle young men rep
resent so much wealth that is being
lost to us every day and this loss will
continue until manufactures come to
the rescue and utilizes it. To save our
young men from ruin we should have
msnuflctories to keep our money at
home, we need them; to consume and
make home market for our products,
we feel the need of them-Ex.

The house at Mount Pleasant is oper
for the use of ministers of other sects
The Campbellites occupy 1t occasion
ally. There are two schools in thal
church, which as is usual in such cases
are not deeply in love with each other.
The one Is represented. by Rev. j. B
Worsham, and the other 10y Rev. Row
land Williams.
According to the best light in the
case. Rev. Worsham is Christian and
Rev. Williams is a Campbellite.
A Methodist minister named Hud-
dlestnn comes once in q while and
drops a good many hard facts into the
path of events. These facts, whilst
they are stumbling blocks in the way
of Reaction, are stepping stones for
Progress.
To sum up. In this region the fol-
lowing sects are represented: United
Baptists, Missionary Baptists, Camp
bellites, Methodists. and two families
of Roman Catholics who are not ex-
ceiled by any for intelligence and good
order. To these large class must be
added who are not attached to any
sect. This last named element seems
for the most part to have intrenched
itself On the heads of the streams and
on the ridges. 1t is strange to notice
how the same principles govern re-

One of the-Oddest uses made of Gen
eral Grants death Is perha ps the Tri-
bune's proposition that the Republicans
of New York twill honor his memory
most truly by rededicating themselves
to the unselfish service of the Repub-
lican party" 1t would hardly be pos
sible to discover a more solemn admo-
milton than General Grants career in
civil life, to be very careful how we
"r' dedicate' ourself to any party.
There could be no better reminder that
party is not q church or religious
organization of any kind charged with
the custody of q body of truth. 1t is
an instrument created every now and
then by free peoples for meeting what
seem to be the wants of the time, with
appropriate legislation. 1t has no more
claim than horse and buggy on any
body's reverence for other things than
its utility. "Dedicating" ones self to
it. without regard to the quality of the
men who manage it, or the uses to
which it is put, is not rational. Parties
being made up of frail and erring NOR
tails like ourselves, dedication to them
Is very dangerous, because we might
| find, and just now should find, that we
were dedicating ourselves to Jim
| Blaine, and Steve Elkins, aud Pow
Clay ton, and Jay Hubbeil, and Bill
Chandler, and Johnny O'Brien, and
Jake Hess, and Barney Bigiin-and
Mr.. George F. Hoar. whom we are
10th to put in such company, but he
insists upon 1t. In so far as General
Grants career furnishes people either
young or old with lesson IN politics,
| it is a warning against blind devotion
to party, against dedicating ones self
to any thing but the good of the coun-
try. The flaws in his political career,
which every one is now lamenting, and
the absence of which would have CIV
en- him place in the admiration as
we'll as the esteem of the world such
as no man since Washington has en-
joyed, were due simply to the fact that
the Republican party was 80 strong
that it did not need to be good, and
that SO many people had dedicated
themselves to it without regard to the
kind of work it was doing.-7He Ma
fi0Sa.

The Postmaster at Indianapolis.

One result of the investigation of Mr..
Aquilla Jones, Postmaster at India
napolis, which the President ordered
on certain charges preferred by social
ed civil service refOrmers, is to expose
the manner in which the Indianapolis
patronage was appropriated by the
Republicans.
There are over eighty clerks and 9TH
er persons employed in that Post Office
and in its outdoor work. When Mr..
Jones took possession he found only
one Democratic voter in the whole
number of employees. His Republican
He had put brand of exclusion upon
them, folio wing the rule in the depart
ments at Washington and in all the
principal and the inferior offices
throughout the country, which pro-
claimed in principle that none but Re-
publicans should be puton guard. This
prescription had been In practice for
nearly q quarter of century.
Mr.. Jones has made about twenty
changes in his Office, or one-fourth of
the whole force. He has given these
places, very properly and naturally, to
Democrats Who are capable and deserv-
ing, and who heretofore have had no
chance of recognition.
Inc accuSerS OF MI. Jones evidently
did not understand the law for an al
legged violation of which they arranged
him. He dismissed two subordinates
for sufficient cause in his own view,
but without making any charges
against them. The reformers complain
that these dismissals were an offence
against the Civil Service act, which
the President ought to punish.
They were ignorant that the power
of removal is untouched by the act,
which concerns itself simply with the
modes. of appointment in certain cases.
Therefore, the complaint which is the
foundation of the attack on Postmaster
Jones is wholly absurd.
This case illustrates the methods of q
set of politicians who, wearing the
mask of reform are striving to give life
tenure to an army of Republican Of
ficeholders, and to shut out Democrats
from the public honors and trusts
which five millions of voters decided
tIsyaslsouId enjpy.
The charges against MIR. Jones have
fallen to the ground. They never had
any sufficient basis.-N. Y Sun.

Bee-Reaved.

DcC-INCftt tus
Out in the orchard Cupid hid
Among the apple blooms;
He watched my Tom and me, he did,
AS ghouls watch at the tombs.
We met, as he supposed he would,
And there, beneath tree,
Because there's was no vacant chir,
1 sat upon Toms knee.
Cupid examined well his darts,
AT once his bow he drew,
And would have shot through both oul
hearts
An arrow bright and new;
But a bad bee forsook his flower,
And lit on Toms thin clothes;
In less than one fourth of an hour
He painfully arose,
And left the apple blooms and me.
And for ammonia went
I lived an old maid, just because
That arrow was not sent.
