Peaceful Means quite Sufficient.
Tho following from the San Fran

The following from the San Fran
cisco Report speaks for itself:
dispatches received from all
parts Of tho county chow that the
anti-Chinese movement has become
general. Everywhere the Chinese
are getting alarmed and are making
way for the white msn. The China
men who leave the counties come to
the city. As a consequence China
town is thronged with idle Chinese.
There are thousands Of idle men
there. The distress has become SO
great that arrangements have really
been made by the Chinese Consul to
ship Cinnamon back to China at re-
duced rates. The idle Chinese have
in many cases become genuine
tramps, going from house to house
asking for food. The present move
ment has shown what general boy
cotting can accomplish, even in a
short time. If persevered in. it is
certain to prove successful. The
Chinese cannot afford to remain in
California If there is no market for
their wares. There is no need of a
resort to violence. Peaceful means
can drive out the Cinnamon far more
easily and surely than can violence" ."
