the poor and down-trodden. They have
treated him even worse than they did
me, becauseI had pardoned some Door
devil out of the state prison that be
might die the next day in the bosom of
bis friends. Tell him that am pleased
to see him surrounded by so many and
such able counsel, and that, too, among
his personal friends. In my humble
opinion his enemies cannot convict him.
Say to Barry that he has nv congratula-
tions for being able to surround himself
with such an array of talent in his be-

Fraud Under the Homestead Act.

A woman who is trying to earn living
ON a homestead in the far west writes
that the land in all. directions within
five miles of her-amount to some 400
homesteads of 100 acres-is held by spec
ulators, who procured it by fraudulent
entry, and that, for this reason, she.4can
have no nelghbors. There is a great
deal of hard work that should be done

point in his individuality that he cannot
transcend until he has subjected his
mind to systematic course of culture
and scientific training, when he will
have become himself so spiritual minded
that he will be able to comprehend the
! spiritual part of his nature without ask
ing aid of anyone.
In the meantime, let us in friendly
spirit discuss the best way to meet the
impending emergency that is already
upon u.s.
The use of machinery has so far dis
placed manual labor as to render the old
SYSTEM of wage labor extremely unreli-
able as means for sustaining existence.
This is bringing crisis upon society
that is already rapidly Reyolutionizing
public sentiment
Even the clergy begin to realize that
the inevitable conflict is near and they
are inquiring of the most radical leaders
of the labor agitation for information.
What is to be the final outcome :?
Shall it be Anarchy or State Socialism :?
Or shall it be universal, industrial and
commercial Cooperation, or Commun-
ism?
Messianism recognizes all these forces
as natural in the transition period in
which we are living, and therefore nee
essary in the unfolding of the higher
brain organism that must eventually di-
rect. and control human relations and
conditions. 10 e"'s@f3 -.
These are the live questions of our
times. Let us address ourselves to the
work of bringing about their wise solu-
ton. f,. 'at,.. ~ ,.s 7>Ss<H'3l '%

New Year, and may you live long to

gun. E""f.. +

rial in your issue of the ninth instant.
HAll sound minded students of the labor
question know that its solution can only
be found in universal, governmental
cooperation" agree with you fully.
But shall we put the new wine into the
old bottles that will break and spill it,
or will we wisely construct the new and
adapt it to the new conditions. Let us
discuss this question in The ENQUIRER

MIR. NNcGEASiAAN.
He Will Work Without SALARY.

Last SATURDAY afternoon the an
ti-Chinese executive committee Of
the State had a meeting at theil
rooms in San Francisco. Among
the PROCEEDINGS we note the follow
ing as taken from the Chronicle.
Mr.. McGlashan stated to the
Committee that he had a matter Of
personal concern which he desired
to act upon at once. AS primary
step the Committee had kindly vel
unteered him a monthly stipend Of
$500, which he, without looking be-
yond personal interests, had &C
cepted. He had abandoned his
business and devoted his whole
time to the anti Chinese cause,
which, at a glance appeared worthy
of compensation. But upon closer
thought, the extreme delicacy of
his situation became apparent. He
was hampered with the appearance,
if not the fact, that his efforts were
not sincere and his publically ex-
pressed sentiments were empty
mouthings at the rate of 5000 a
month. In view of this phase of
the matter, he asked the Committee
to rescind its salary act as relating
to him and accept his services
gratis.
At first the Committee were I'M
animously opposed to any such pro
ceeding, but renewal of Mr.. Nc
Glashan's request made his posi-
ton clear and it was finally granted.

How the Day w. Observed in


How the Day ~ as Observed in
| sas-os,.
Yesterday Chinatown was pretty
full of Cinnamon who quit work
about the city and came in prepar-
atory to leaving Carson. AS was
generally anticipated there was very
little trouble over the change OF
help. Every body as far as known
who had signed the pledge kept
it. When the Chinese vegetable
wagons went their usual rounds
they met with very chilly recep-
ton, and were told on all sides that
their vegetables were not wanted.
Every body belonging to the League
kept his weather eye on his neigh
Dor, and wherever a Chinese veg
etable wagon stopped the fact was
soon known all over town AS a
rule however when these matters
were investigated it was found that
the Chinese called at the various
houses to be paid up and in all
cases the money was forthcoming
and moment later the Chlnaman
was forthgolng. The only trouble
was with the Arlington House.
Several boacders left the hotel be
cause they learned that there was
still Chinese cook in the kitchen.
Judge Cary was interviewed Oh the
subject.
He said that some Of his boarders
had left him because he had Chi
nese cook. He had written letters
to Labor Bureaus in San Francisco
for white cooks, but was told that
the demand was SO great that he
could not get them. He had re
ceived letter from San Jose that
he should have a good white cook
by the 10th. He felt that an in
Justice was being done him by the
boycott
Some of the parties who had left
the hotel were interviewed. They
said that they had taken the step
with great reluctance, and would
return to their old boarding place
as soon as they saw white cook
there
1t was rumored that Yerington
and Bliss had said they would see
the hotel through, and that they
also expected to start grocery
store against H. S. Mason and sell
at cost. Other parties who claimed
to have talked with them a few
hours before reported that they
were offering no opposition to the
but were well salts

change does not affect him in the

DR.. Herrick stated at the last

This is an error. The papers who
took the printing told the Commit

but they would print them for what
ever the League chose to give. The
amount collected did not more than
cover the cost of composition. but
was perfectly satisfactory as far as
the printers are concerned.
