party. The great mass Of tho

have kept this agreement. A
clique, composed chiefly Of Demo
cratic intriguers and a few rene
gade Republicans, have labored
for the past six months 10 divert
the anti-Chinese movement into
political machine for selfish pur.
poses. At the same time they
have falsely pretended that their
only object was to secure the re-
moval of the Chinese from our
midst.
This pretense now demonstrated
by the conduct Of the parties them
selves to be absolutely false. The
ominees for county ofhces,if cleo
ted. will have no more influence
than private citizens on the Chi
nese question. The legislative
candidates occupy very different
position. 1t will be their duty to
elect a United States Senator.

We do not make this statement
