Hop AT THE Hook AND LADDER HALF
Last Tuesday evening witnessed the gath
ering of a number of the younger lads and
lassies of Donaldsopville and vicinity at
Ascension Hook and Ladder Hall, for the
purpose of participating in an impromptu
hop devised by Misses Rosa and Stella Bou-
dreaux, Mia Dalferes and Irene Mitchell.
The attendance was excellent and the affair
proved highly enjoyable and successful in
every particular, much to the credit of the
young misses under whose auspices the en-
tertainment was given, and the young gen.
lemen-Masters Sidney Hanson, Arthur
Comstock, John Maher and Alex. Poch6-
who assisted in it's management. Music
for dancing was kindly furnished by Mrs.
Lille B. Hamilton, and it was of the best
order. The gratifying success of this agree
bic hop will no doubt be an incentive to
occasional repetitions of the entertainment
under similar auspices during the season.

The Anti-Chinese Meeting.

CALDWELL, February IS, SS6.-Meeting
rs per adjournment Of week ago. After be-
ing called to order the chairman of the COM
nittee on resolutions reported the following,
which were read and approved:
Whereas, the rapid increase of the Chinese
population in all parts of the Pacific slope, and
their ready induction into all the branches of
trade and labor, thereby depriving the poor
and needy of both sexes of our own race of the
natural means of earning an honest living; AMI
Whereas, they, the Chinese, are by race
and education debarred from becoming cili
zens, thereby becoming part of the body
polite, but only seek to enrich themselves by
impoverishinc our country; and
Whereas, the Chinese are unsocial in their
habits, treacherous in their instincts, and bar
barous in their nature, paying but little taxes
themselves, but by their many crimes worrying
the patience of our courts and doubling the
burdens of our own people; and
Whereas, Boise City and other towns of
Southern Idaho are taking steps to rid them
selves Of SO undesirable population; therefore
be it now
Resolved, that we, the people of Caldwell
| and vicinity will use all lawful and honorable
means in our power to prevent the further in
fiux OF Chinese into our community, and to rid
ourselves Of those who are already in our
midst.
Secondly, Resolved, that we, the people of
Caldwell and vicinity, after period of sixty
days, dating from the adoption of these resolu-
tions, will in nowise deal with Cinnamon, or
those who patronize them, either to buy of
them or sell to them, or hire or give them en-
ployment Of any kind whatsoever
Thirdly, Resolved, that we, the people Of
Caldwell and vicinity, form ourselves into
league to be known as Caldwell Anti Chinese
League No. 2, for the purpose Of carrying out
the foregoing resolutions; and that each citizen
signing these resolutions be deemed member
of said league.
Fourthly, Resolved, that the said league
shall elect as permanent officers a president
and secretary, and also standing committee
OF five, whose duty it shall be to acquaint the
Chinese residents OF Caldwell with the contents
OF these resolutions, and to visit families al d
make arrangements to employ white labor in
the room and stead of Chinese labor.
Resolved, that a copy Of these resolutions be
furnished the CALDWELL TRIBUNE for publi-
cation.
