LABoRERs IN FRUIT HARVEST.

A few days ago we expressed the regret
generally felt that the proposition to en-
ploy California boys in the fruit harvest,
to the exclusion of Chinese, had met with
such cold reception on the part of the
horticulturists. The subject has since be-
come one engaging great deal of atten-
ton and is likely to be very much more
debated. Most fruit growers admit that
boys can be proftably employed, and after
few days instructions outdo the best Chi
nese packers and pickers. "Why then are
they not substituted for the Chinese ?' is a
natural inquiry. The response, and the
only one, is found in the fact, as we have
already suggested, that the Chinaman
calls for no attention from the employer as
to his manner of living. With boys in
employment, the sruit-grower feels COM
PEELED to concern himself somewhat about
their physical comfort. American boys
are very likely TO know their rights and
to assert them, and the fruit-grower
while not disposed to deny them, is indis-
posed to take on care concerning them, so
long as he can get labor that asks for no
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-08-11

consideration of comfort whatever. In
other words, until the fruit-harvester can
not get Chinese laborers, he will not en-
ploy boys, and because he thereby relieves
himself of considerable responsibility and
care-taking. All the interviews had with
growers, and all the statements of horti-
culturists that have been published in the
last few days clearly disclose this to be
the only real objection entertained, but it
is expressed infrequently, and in a very
vague and hesitating way.
But battalion of lads has been sent TO
Vina to labor in vineyard and orchard
upon Governor Stanford's estate. Under
the discipline that prevails there the test
of capacity of these boys will be fairly and
fully made, and the effect of their en-
ployment and the care taken of them will
presently be known. We look forward to
the entire success of the Vina scheme. If
1T fails it will be because the boys are un-
willing to learn to labor If this devel-
ops, it will in turn be chargeable to the
false training they have had under their
parents or guardians, and if it has been
such as to lead them to avoid and despise
honest labor, it may in some degree be
laid at the door of the Chinese, who have
brought so many manual occupations in
California into disrepute = precisely as
slavish servitude always does operate upon
free labor.
While the people are waiting for the re-
suit of the small experiment entered upon
at Vina, and for the awakening of the
fruit-growers to loftier appreciation of
their duty to society, men and women
who believe that children should be taught
to respect the labor of the hands more
than the exercise of the wits, should exert
themselves in encouragement of the effort
now afoot to employ American youths in
the horticultural fields during the brief
harvest season, to the exclusion of the
plodding and altogether too economic

sired and for which advertising is en-
ployed.
1t would have been gratifying if the
Superior Court had not contented itself
with mere hint to the Grand Jury, but
have plainly told it what it knows to be
the fact, that every such publication of lot
terry returns and accounts of drawings is
a distinct violation of the law, and ought
TO result in the punishment of the offend
er, and that it is the duty of the Grand
Jury to indict all such offenders
In one of his allegories Bunyan depicts
one casting water upon fercely burning
and increasing flames, vainly trying to ex-
tinguish them. The guide reveals to
Christian why success does not meet the
endeavor-behind the fire stands an imp
of evil pouring on oil. The standing and
ever recurring travesty upon human JUS
tice In San Francisco is the arrest and
the Juggling" of the poor devils who buy
lottery tickets, encouraged so to do by the
delusive and glowing advertisements the
publishers of the metropolitan journals cir
culate, with impunity from arrest, for the
coin Of the lottery swindlers. What sort
of respect can We expect the law
to inspire among the people, when
it makes fish of one and fowl
of another? If lottery ticket agent
exposes in his Office lottery scheme sheet
he is liable to be arrested and carted of
to prison for advertising" and the police
not infrequently thus suppress these agen-
cies; but the newspaper next door to the
policy shop appears to be privileged to
"advertise all lotteries on earth, and rest
secure in freedom from molestation by off.
cials of the metropolis. Such a method
of enforcing laws brings them into con-
tempt; as clearly as if written in letters Of
brass, it reads that the press of San Fran
cisco dares to beard the law, and its off
GERS have not the courage, or find it bene-
ficial to the pocket nerve to not invoke the
statute against them-that is to say, they
either stand in such fear of the press that
they close their eyes to its fragrant viola
ton of the plainest-written statute there
is within the covers of the Penal Code; Or
they are sharers in the enormous profits OF
the illegal business, or else they are grossly
ignorant of their duty under their oaths.
Common justice protests against the
arrest and punishment of the lottery
ticket peddlers and holders in San Fran
cisco, so long as those who advertise these
Illegal wares, and lure victims to invasion
of the law by glowing accounts of the
fortunes "drawn" by the 'lucky," are not
pursued for the greater offense.

THE LOTTERY LAW FARCE.

In the charge of the Superior Court of
San Francisco to the Grand Jury on Sat
urday, the Court drew the especial atten-
tion Of the inquest to the sale and posses
sion of lottery tickets in that city. The
excessive evils of this sort of gaming were
referred to, and the jury was urged to bend
its energies to the suppression of the traffic
in lottery policies. The Court took occa-
sion to add that the drawings of foreign
lotteries are published in the daily papers
of San Francisco, which aggrayates the
appetite for the gambling
In the same daily papers containing the
charge Of the Court is an account of the
arrest of dapper fellow who, in crowd
on the street, conducted one side of hot
political debate In the midst of it, to
emphasize some tariff idea, the speaker in
his enthusiasm waived aloft a bunch of
lottery tickets, and announced his belief
that he was the heir apparent to the
capital prize Of the scheme they repre-
sented. Thereupon stalwart policeman
pounced upon him, and he was forthwith
locked in dungeon CELL" There APP
pears, however, no record that any of the
publishers of the San Francisco press were
then, prior to that time or since, arrested
for violating the law more fagrantly than
the unfortunate sidewalk orator.
1t is a grinning farce, this method of
enforcing the lottery law in San Francisco.
Here we have Court assumedly indie
pendent and fearless, urging upon the
Grand Jury the necessity of severely pun
ishing those who are found to be in posses
sion of lottery tickets, or who offer them
for sale. The Court points out that the
newspapers publish the returns of lot
terry drawings. We must assume by this
reference that the Court intended to call
the attention of the jury to the fact that
such publication is an unblushing and
defiant violation of the law forbidding
the advertising of lottery schemes. For
| il is notorious, and will not be denied.
that these reports of drawings are
paid for as advertisements-they are in
every sense, in purpose and effect, adver-
tisements. They are supplemented by
highly colored accounts in reading col
umns from time to time of prize having
been drawn by some resident of San Fran
cisco, and these are in every instance
heavily paid for as advertisements, and
the publishers will not deny that they are
received as such and have the effect de-

GENERAL HARRISON said in his speech
to large party of visitors week before
last; hope the time is coming, and has
even now arrived when the great sense OF
justice which possesses our people will
teach men of all parties that party success
is not to be promoted at the expense of an
injustice to any of our citizens. There is
a sense of justice, of fairness, that will as
sert itself against attempts to coin party
advantage out of public wrong. The day
when men can be disfranchised or shorn
of their political power for opinions sake
must have an end in our country" These
graceful, strong and yet dispassionate SEN
tences glow with truth and wisdom.
General Harrison hopes the day is at hand
when party advantage is not to be pro-
NOTED at the expense of injustice to a citi-
zen. His hope does him infinite credit
but we do not note any disposition on the
part of the whites of the South to make
such condition real. The solidity of the
South is maintained to-day by the Democ-
racy simply because party success is pro-
NOTED by refusing justice to colored voters
and denying them the equal right at the
ballot box guaranteed to all citizens.

The London "Times," having a
letter from President Cleveland in
its possession, after quoting passages
from it, editoriaIly says: at would
hardly be possible to put the free
trade case more clearly or more
strongly. The arguments which
Cleveland uses are those which Cob
den used to employ forty-five years
ago and which any English free
trader would employ now. They are
purely free trade arguments, and as
such we are glad to see Cleveland
VsiDg them, though sorry for the
popular infatuation which makes it
dangerous TO give them their right

1t stands to the credit of the Board, and

with less exertion, and but little more

Of an ordinary business. Precinct registers
ought to be ordered in all the counties.
They are nails in the cofins of repeaters :;
they are staggering blows to illegal voting :;
they are foes to vicious bossism; they are
undertakers that bury voting corpses
beyond hope of resurrection at elections.
As no more than $50 names can appear
upon precinct register it becomes
matter of case to pin down every man
claiming residence in precinct to the
truth or falsity of his claim, without the
loss OF time the use OF the Great Register
involves. But beyond this economy of
time, the great benefit of the precinct
register resides in its defeat of illegal vot-
ing. With honest Judges and inspectors,
and with precinct registers, the imported
voter and the fellow who registers upon
the gravestones have small chance to ply
their vocations.

The demonstration made in New York
in honor of the return of Mr.. Blaine we
take to be as much, if not more, significant
of the drift of sentiment in favor of Har-
rison and Morton. 1t certainly was a
tribute to a distinguished American citi-
zen because of personal popularity, but
very much more because of the fact that
he is an exponent of the doctrines of the
Republican party, the banner of which is
to-day so manfully and cleanly borne in
the front of battle by General Benjamin
