The Rice Market.

Recent telegraphic advices from Oh in
report disastrous floods in the Canton
district; immense fields of rice were de-
stroyed, and prices have in consequence
been sharply advanced in the local market.
China mixed is now in active demand at
81 45@4 so per two mats; other descrip-
tons of China are firm but less affected:
the present stock of new mixed China rice
is estimated at about 10000 mats. Ha-
waiian is jobbing at 74c,-no stock in first
hands. Two carloads, about $4,000
pounds, Carolina rice were received in
San Francisco by rail and sold readily at
&c. cash. Several more carloads are on
the way and expected to reach there about
the time the next steamer will be due
from the Hawaiian Islands.

Chinese immigration are best under
stood and most strikingly demon
strated. It is a perversion of religious
sentiment hard to understand; but
it is nevertheless more potential with
the United States administration
than the law itself, because the ad-
ministration always falls back upon
the religious sentiment" of New
England to sustain it's notification
policy. When, however, the 'yellow
plague" strikes Boston and the man
ufacturing towns of New England
the tune will change, protests being
already made against the employ
ment of French Canadians under con-
tract in New England factories, to
the exclusion of American labor.
We make these points to show how
difficult it is for great and powerful
country even to enforce a policy OF
labor exclusion when wealthy en-
ployers are combined to resist it.
The ADVERTISER recently described
the high-handed attempt made by
powerful transportation companies,
in the interest of labor organizations,
to trample on the restrictions placed
upon Chinese immigration by this
Government. The question hence
arises: What had best be done? We
are in full accord with our cOntempo-
raries upon this question. The Ad-
ministratien has given proof of its
sincerity in the matter also. 1t now
remains for an intelligent public
opinion to demand the absolute ex-
clusion Of all Chinese males without
families, who have no property inter-
ests in this country, and depend in
future upon family immigration from
Japan, Europe and the United States.
| The Chinese are a REPRESENTATIVE
race. They are, in their religion,
politics and social habits a marvel
| lous case of arrested development.
Let them be kept away from these
Islands, and so permit the State to be
built upon the underlying principles
of Western civilization, by the ANAL
gamation of races physically adapted
to the climate, amenable to law, and
capable of social and intellectual evo-
| luton.

ABOUT CHINESE IMMIGRATION.

A local contemporary, when dis
cussing the question of Chinese inn
migration recently, suggested that
we must do as the United States has
done, and stop Chinese immigration
absolutely. 1t took it for granted,
because law was passed by Congress
restricting Chinese immigration, that
therefore the object contemplated by
the enac' nent was accomplished.
Such is not the case at all. 1t has
fallen out otherwise. The law has
been nullified by the late and present
administrations, and the Chinese are
f1ocking into California and swarm
ing all over the United States pre-
cisely as if the Treaty of Picking had
not been ratified, or the Restriction
act had not been incorporated in the
Revised Statutes.
The truth is, that restriction does
not restrict in the case OF Chinese
immigration to the United States.
The great railroad corporations and
large employers of labor are deter
minedly opposed to any restriction
being placed upon Chinese labor i'm
migration, which, if unlimited, is
necessarily "cheap;" and they set to
work in various ways to influence the
Secretary of the Treasury and the
Attorney General of the United States
to put constructions upon the Statute
at variance with the policy and in
tent of the law This was done by
these officials under President
Arthur's administration, and the
evil is being aggravated under Presi-
dent Cleveland's.
The religious sentiment of New
England is a powerful factor in the
case also. 1t is strenuous in favor of
Chinese immigration, and appears to
be complacently willing that thou
sands of American girls and boys
should become outcasts and thieves
through lack of honest employment,
ment, if thereby a chance be
afforded the "Chinese Mission "
in the States to convert"
some half-dozen MOngolians, or
teach the more intelligent among
them to read and write English-an
accomplishment of considerable
money value to them. This Isl hard
thing to say, but it is the rigid truth,
which is witnessed to by newspapers
of every shade of opinion on the
Pacific Coast, where the operations of
