The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1888-11-23
N0N-1NTERCoURsE

The Oyegoaiaa is much exercised over
the hint that comes from China, that that
nation will retaliate against the United
States for passing the exclusion bill. This
retaliation it is said will consist in China's
abrogating all treaty relations with the
United States and shut her ports hermiti-
caily against our shipping and commerce
and by pursuing the policy of strict non
intercourse. The OysgOmian grieves over
the fact that we will thus lose all our trade
with that country, which, as 1t says, last
year amounted to five millions dollars
worth Of cotton goods which we sold that
country. The Oyegonian would exclude
the product of Chinese labor by protective
tariff In the interest of the American man
ufacturer, but bemoans the effort to protect
American laborers by excluding Chinese
cheap laborers from our shores. The ex'
clusion law lately passed by Congress ex
pires by Limitation May 9th, 1892, and ]
not reenacted Chinese will come to our
shores without let or hindrance. We be
lievc the law will not be reenacted, ,becaus'

II was all we'll enough for the republi-
cans of Albany to have demonstration of
rejoicing over their victory. They had a
right to be happy and 1t made democrats
feel we'll to see their ncighbors in happy
mood. But there was one thing occurred
that we think all sensible, honor
able republicans will condemn. II was the
exhibition in paraIe of a banner with a
British flag labelled "The Democratic Plat
FORM" This was an exhibition of senseless
folly thas should have been left buried with
the other follies of the campaign. 1t Is an
insult justified neither in morals nor in poll.
tics to charge democrats who constitute
more than half the voting population of
the country with working in the inter-
est of Great Britain. This charge was
made times without number during the
campaign by leaders of the republican party
from Blaine down, and might have beeu
excusable as campaign "roorback," but
its use when the campaign is over is with
out excuse. Democrats are as patriotic as
any other class and have as little occasion
to work in England's interest as repnbl
| cans.
