The Chinese problem in California ap-
ne.rs 10 be solving itself. Those who
have been the largest employers OF the
ha.,hsn are the ones who are now realiz'
inc that. in order to foster the stare
;nterests a. veil as their own, the Cni-
nese must 20. They are sapping the very
life blood Of the Golden State, and the
fact is now patent that if the State Is TO
become . thoroughly prosperous one II
must be settled aud worked by the
uroper classes of people. As is well
known. the chief object in the life OF the
Chipaman is to accumulate dollars and
ceuts TO the extent Of several thousands
az the former, then of to his native
country he goes and makes an invest
meut. where he remains, as 8 rule, the
balance Of his days. II these cases were
exceptional the drain Of coin would not
be perceptibly felt by the Coast, but
they number into the thousands annually.
Notwithstanding California is receiving
from the East and Europe from 800 to
1000 immigrants and tourists every
week, yet the State is to-day, in q inan-
cial way, in an unaccountably bad condi.
ton. Some assign the cause to this,
some to that; but seldom are the China
men spoken Of. so quietly do they gather
in the shekels and hoard the same away
until the desired amount is accumulated.
The manner in which the question is
solving itself is, for example, in the ex-
periments which are being made by
several Of the large ranchers in the
southern part Of the State. Hagin's ex-
p~erience with colored people. whom he
imported from the South for the purpose
Of substituting them for Cinnamon, has
proved . conspicuous success. The
negroes do more and better work than
the Cinnamon, and are far superior to
them in morals. They live like civilized
beings, are industrious and ~law-abiding
they attend church. p~atronize the news
papers, spend their money at home and
take . strong interest in the Government
that shelters and protects them.

make such Appropriation as may be

abstract Of all lands where the title
has passed from the government to

The following schedule of values for
taxation was decided npon:

From the New York Sun, eth.
Flora A. Hastings of San Francisco, attended
the Notre Dame academy at Baltimore in 1872,
when she was 13 years old, and was taken to
the Sweet Chalybeate springs, Virginia, by her
mother to spend her vacation. There she
made the acquaintance of James o. B. Kelley.
After that year she regularly visited the
springs on her vacation, always stopping at the
house of Kelleys father, with his sisters, one Of
whom was her schoolmate.
In May, 1876, Flora arrived at the Kelley

The Chinese restriction Act.

John RUSSELL YOUNG SAYS ALL THE CHINESE
CONE FROM HONG KONG, NOT FROM CHINA.
John II. Young, ex-united States minister
to China, arrived in San Francisco on the
steamer Oceanic Sunday. In an interview
regarding the Chinese restriction act Sun
day night he said: II merely offends Chinese
pride, as the government are opposed TO the
immigration of their subjects. In diplomacy the
fact that America has Disseminated against
china is often used as a foil when America
seeks any advantage in China,or when treaty
revision is suggested. The Chinese emigrate
from Hong Kong, an English port, and not
from any Chinese city. The British governor
OF Hong Kong could enforce the United States
restriction treaty II he were required to do so
by his government. The Chinese government
have done all In their power to prevent the i'm
migration of Chinese to the United States, but
there are no restrictions upon their going from
Hong Kong. To completely carry out the re-
striction act the United States should nego-
tiate treaty with England BY which coolies
from Hong Kong would be prohibited from
sailing TO this country. Ex-3iinister Young
conveys 10 Gen. Grant expressions of sympathy
and wishes for his recovery nom Li-dune-
Chang and the emperor of japan. =
