How They DO 1t In Mason Valley

When the anti Chinese movement
started in Dayton there were several
parties who attended the meeting from
Mason Valley. When the people in the
enterprising little town Of Greenfield
understood the matter, those who had
Cinnamon employed-there were but
four we believe-had a little meeting Of
their own, and agreed to discharge
every pig tail that was at work. They
did this, and furthermore told the Mon
golians that as they had no more use for
them they had better skip out, and they
skipped. The people of the Valley
have impressive ways of doing business,
and it is always done up to the handle /.

a New Industry.

J. NJ. Tailleur, who lives short way
out of Dayton, on little ranch, is put.
ting up loom for the purpose Of weav-
ing rag carpets. Mr.. Toilleur has two
daughters who are expert enced hands
at this business, and as a great many
people have been sending below to have
their rags woven into carpets, Mr.. I.
and his daughters have decided to start
a little business of their own, and stop
this trade from going out of the com,
munity. Persons who are now busy
sewing rags should bear this fact in
mind, and when they have balls enough
made for carpet should take them to
the Misses Tailleur TO be woven.

Turned over.

Sunday afternoon last while Hugh
Calling and Charley Box were out rid.
ing they met with little mlshap.
While rounding the same corner that
Ruby was thrown out on, the buggy
turned over and dumped the occupants
upon the ground. Box had an eye to
business, and when he saw the buggy
was going over, grabbed the leather
seat and threw it out to light upon.
Hugh hung onto the horse and pre-.
vented him from getting away. No
damage was done-to illustrate, Box.

ANTI-CHINEsE MEETING-0.

Miners Union Hall, of Silver City,
was filled with an interested audience
last Monday night, assembled 10 listen
TO the exposition of anti Chinese princi-
pies by Hon. W. c. povey and w. A.
Harris. The meeting was called to
order by w. W. Byron, Chairman OF
the anti. Chinese association, who made
a few very appropriate remarks. After
which, Mr.. Dovey was introduced and
addressed the audience for nearly an
hour. Mr.. Dovey, dwelt at length upon
the non-assimilatng character of the
Chinese, and their undesirability in the
community; showing up their filthy
traits and vile characteristics in master.
ly style. The speaker showed that it
was life and death struggle for the
people OF the coast as the Chinese were
continually encroaching upon every
avenue Of labor. The pro-Chinese PEG.
pie were handled without gloves, and
sarcasm was literally applied. Mr..
.Dovey's address was interspersed with
laughter and applause. MIR. w. A..
Harris followed in half hours talk,
rePleIe with logic, eloquence and sharp
thrusts to the enemies Of the movement.
The progress made by the League was
spoken of, and it was predicted that
next month success would be apparent
to all. The total unfitness of the
Chinese as nelghbors was portrayed in
graphic manner. 1t was made still
more apparent the heavy load the Coast
was carrying in its march Of civiliza-
ton by toleraling the Chinese. 1t was
demonstrated that the Chinese were
slaves here, working for their Chinese
masters, and of the evil effects upon
the different parts of the world that
have in times past had slave labor. 1t
was made clear that the Chinese are the
most harmful Of all. 1t was shown by
numerous historical instances that a
nation in order to be thoroughly pros.
porous should be homogeneous. lnvec.
tive and satire was piled upon foes to
the movement, and those who like crows
are perched on the fence afraid 10 even
cav. The boycott was thoroughly ex
planned and its history, force and pro
posed application was elucidated in a
mastery manner. Mr.. Harris closed
with brilliant peroration which called
forth long continued cheers and ap-
plauSe. A vote Of thanks was tend.
cred to Messrs. Dewey and Harris for
their kindness in addressing the Asso.
citation. Thanks were also rendered to
the Miners Union for donating the Hall
for the meeting. Seventeen new names
were added to the roll. The meeting
then adjourned 10 meet at Dayton, on
Monday evening April 10th, 1886.

KILLED ON THE COMO ROAD.
Lawrence Feretta Meets his
Death by Failing From a.WagOn.

afternoon about FIVE o'clock that Law
renee Feretta, who was driving a team
hauling qnartz from the North Rapi dan
mine in Como, had fallen from the
wagon about mile from this place and
been killed by the wheel of the wagon
running over him. AS soon as the news
was learned several parties started for
Isaac Wolverton coming in with the
team and wagons, and also bringing the
body. VIM. Singerland and son were
behind the wagon and upon learn
ing what happened young Slingerland
Immediately drove to town and then up
to Daney Canon to notify the dead boys
father. When the quartz team reached
the bridge the body was placed in
another conveyance and taken TO the
Court House where Coroner's inquest
was held. There was only one wit.
ness, Mr., Wolverton, and his testimony
was as follows: We were on Como
road about mile and half from town.
Feretta had hurt his thumb, and was
standing on the wagon tongue with his
hands on front Of bed Of wrgon. / was

hallooed whoa, and put on the brakes.
Feretta was then lying across the track
OF the wheel between the front and
hind wheels. He said twice "pi OK me
up, Ike" picked him up. He could
not stand up, and laid him down and
put a coat under his head and bathed.
his face with water. He lived about
ten or fifteen minutes. He never strug-
gled, just gasped. Wagon did not run
over him. '.' Il
The following is the verdict of the
CoroneF's Jury: We find that the de- d.
ceased was named Lawrence Feretta,
native Of Italy, aged 20 years, and that
he came to his death on the Como road
about one mile from Dayton, by falling
from wagon and receiving injuries
over his heart. All of which we duly
certify 10. w. A. HARRIS,

&. Box.
Upon examining the body but two
slight bruises were found, one directly
over the heart and one on the opposite.
side of the chest. From these bruises
It is probable that the hind wheel of the
wagon caught the boy and rolled him
over once or more, and that conclusion
of the heart was the cause Of death.
After the inquest the body was LAID out
in the Armory Hall where it was al
lowed 10 remain. Deceased leaves a
father, step-sisle and brother to mourn
his loss. He also had many friends
among his countrymen and townsmen.
The funeral will take place from the
Court House this afternoon.
