SHOULD the threatened expulsion of
the Chinese from San Francisco take
place, 1t behooves NIL other cities that
would likely receive some of them to
take precautionary measures in time.
That The Chinese in large numbers are
not n desirable class of Inhabitants for
any American city there is not the
shadow Of doubt. Situated ms San
Antonio Is, on a direct line Of railway
from California, should the $1,000 China
men be driven from San Francisco,
there is but little doubt hut what large
number might want to find II Judgement
here. san Antonio already has plenty
of that class of people and does not want
her Chinese population increased TO any
considerable extent our MeXicans,
good peaceable people, and the oolored,
and o:her classes of laborers have now
no more work than they can do, and even
the effect of 80 Cinnamon would be felt
by our laboring classes. The question
naturally arises what could be done to
prevent the Chinese from securing u
foothold herey The answer IL very sim
pie. An evil in its incipiency is easily
corrected Let it be understood that no
houses are to be rented to Chinese, nor
property sold TO them on which TO build.
The settlement of 800 or 5000 Chinamen
would in the end be no benefit, no more
to the proper;y-holder than to tue
working people of the CITY. The Cut
nese never yet have made a city pros
porous in the United States, and their
settling here in large numbers would
deter the immigration of good, solid
men from other States and European
countries. The refusal to rent or sell to
Cinnamon would prevent all possible
necessity OF mobs to eXpel the China
men, and all other attendant disorders
and evils, a public meeting should be
held so ms to have concert of action. and
let our banners be hung on the outer
walls, proclaiming to the world in clear
and distinct letters that "No Chinese

Sometime, when all lifes lessons have been
learned,
And sun and stars forevermore have set,
The things which our weak judgments here
have spurncd-
The things DER which we gricvcd with lashes
wet,
will flash before u.s. out Of Hles dark night,
As stars shine most in deeper tints Of blue;
And we shall see how all Gods plans are right.
And how what seemed rcproof was love
most true.
And we shall see how, while we frown and
sigh,
Gods plans go on as best for you and me;
How, when VIC called, he needed not our cry,
Because his wisdom to the end could see.
And even as wise parents disalow
Too much Of sweet TO craving babyhood,
50 God, perhaps, is keeping from us now
Lies sweetest thingR. because il seemeth
good.
And if, sometimes, commingled with lfe's
wine
We find the wormwooi, and rebel and
shrink
BE sure a wiser hand than yours or mine
Pours out this potion for our lips to drink
And II some friend we love is lying low,
Where human kisses can not reach his face.
Oh, do not blame the loving Father so,
But wear your sorrow with Obedient grace.
And you shall shortly know that heightened
breath
IL not the sweetest gift God sends his friend
And that, sometimes, the sable pail of death
COnceals the fairest boon his love can send
II we could push ajar the gates of life,
And stand within and all Gods workings
see,
We could interpret all this doubt aud strife,
Ana Tor each mystery could find key
But not to-day. Then be content, poor heart
Gods plans, like lilies, pure and white un-
fold
We must not tear the close-shut leaves apart,
Time will reveal the Calyxes Of gold.
And If, through patient toll, we reach the land
Where tired feet, with sandals loOsed may
rests
When we shall clearly see and understand
think that we will say, "GOd knew the
best" -Er

LEBANON, OHIO.
An Interesting Account Of lis People,
College, Industries, etc.

IOI INC NEMhs
LEBANON, o., November 4th, 1888.
MIR. EDITOR Thinking that your
many readers would be interested in
few lines from this part of the State,
will give you a brief description of Leb-
anon and its surrounding.
Lebanon and the region about it is
noted for its health, beauty and fertility,
and most of all for its University:
Judging from what have seen of the
surrounding ueighborhood, can fully
endorse all of the favorable reports
which are being heard of this place
The town itself is beautifully situated
on a knoll between two creeks, and
upon a hill which forms their banks,
thus forming an excellent means Of
drainage, which is doubtless one cause
of its healthiulness. The citizens re-
joice that there are so few deaths here,
even though thousands are annually col
lected here in the University. 1t is a
rare thing to hear of a death in the
school. There has been but one death
here since the first of September, and
that student contracted her disease be-
fore coming.
Among the distinguished residents
here is Judge Geo. r. Sage, of the L. S.
Court. He is the son-in-law OF the
famous Tom Corwin. The Judge lives
in the Corwin homestead, an interest
ing structure that students frequently
visit to write about Hon James Scott,
the author of the Scott Law, is also a
resident of this place. He has a mild
and amiabe disposition and is loved
and respected bt ab except the bar
keepers.
If churches have any thing to do with
religion, no one need hesitate coming
here on account of its not being relg-
ious, for there are ten churches in Leb-
anon, and each has large congregation,
Prof Heber Uolbrook has in his charge
a Bible class which is composed Of stu.
dents, and will say here that it is the
most instructive and best managed class
in the line of Scripture, that I have at,
tended in Lebanon. President Hol
brook is said to look younger now than
he did before the war. He is one of tho
most active instructors in the school
performing enough work in one day tc
keep six ordinary men busy.
The University is very fourishing anc
well attended, having a fall class o
undergraduates of one hundred anC
twenty or thirty students. This schoo
has been built up on the fact that it,
professors are teachers, and do not cram
their students full of knowledge, bu
train them to think and speak for them
selves-which we believe is the onl!
true way of educating this young gener
alton. If a person of slender mean
wishes to obtain a practical education
and is too rusty to pass an examination
which most of the colleges require,
advise him to enter the National Norma
| University at Lebanon, Ohio.
Yours respectfully,
WILDER ROUsU.
