An Anti.Con,Ie Meeting.

Pursuant to a published call, those citi-
zens of the Fourth Ward who are opposed
to the employment of Chinese, assembled
last evening at Eleventh and streets. a
stand appropriately decorated with the
American colors and well lighted, had been
erected in front of the grocery OF j. w.
Heating. The meeting was called to order
by 2. A. Byrne, who stated that on Monday
evening Fourth Ward Anti-Coolle Club
was organized, for the purpose OF driving
the Chinese out of the ward. They invited
all persons residents of the ward who
mean business TO join them. The
meeting Organized by electing VIII
liam Tanner Chairman. He made
short speech, and stated what
he knew of the -four mills
in this city that employed Chinese,
to the exclusion of white labor
He recommended the boycotting of two of
those mills, naming them, and called upon
every laborer present to refuse to buy the
flour manufactured by those mills, and re-
fuse toeat the bread made out of such flour
Chinese manufactured -four, he said, was
poor food for the unemployed white man.
Immense cheers. One of those lnstltu-
tons employed large number Of Mongols,
and refused to say that they would, if they
could, replace them with honest, industri-
GUS and worthy white labor. [Cheers and
cries of Boycott them.'l He said he
thought the organization of ward clubs was
a move in the right direction. They could
work in harmony with the movement al
ready inaugurated by the business men
and Knights Of Labor, and great good
could be accomplished. He counseled no
violence, a strict obeyance of the laws
of the country, but determined and
systematic boycotting, that if prop
eTly carried out would in a short
time accomplish the desired end, white
labor would again gain the supremacy, the
laborer would again be employed, the
Chinese would be forced to leave, and our
country once more enter upon an era of
prosperity such as has not been enjoyed in
the last decade. [Cheers.
A German, a resident of the Fourth
Ward, was the next speaker. and enter
tanned the audience for quite a while, tell
ing many humorous anecdotes.
III. l.. Buckley made lengthy and logi-
cal speech, reviewing the subject most
thoroughly. He thought the proposed
system of boycotting would result in much
good, and counseled acting in accordance
with law. No good, he claimed, could be
done by incendiary harangues or unlawful
acts.
]. D. Jost was called out and made
few remarks, in which he favored thorough
organization.
