rug LABoR AGITATION IN CAL

The San Francisco papers are discuss
ing the labor question in California 81
great length and in all Of its bearings.
The alarm has been sounded that . labor
crisis is 81 hand. Numerous Proprietor'
Of vineyards and orchards have been in
terviswed, all Of whom coucur in the
opinion that it will be impossible Tor
them to get along without an additional
,uoply Of cheap Chinese labor. This Is
consistency with . vengeance. PHor 70
The late election the whole cry Was that
we must maintain q high protective tar

Of the election was determined in favor
Of high tariff and high wages, bat nov

part Of the country. The California fruit
growers are no exception 10 the rule.
The greed of gain is at the bottom OF Il
all. Patriotism and the general welfare
count for nothing alter the electiCa.
High protection for the capitalist and the
lowest possible wages for the poor man Is
what il all SINNERS down 10. Capital 10

the poos man that needs protection. bat
he never gets it. There is not q fruit

In the East who will not avail himself Of
coolie or Chinese slave labor II it be poe
sible 10 do 90. The demand is already
set up for the repeal Of the Chinese Ex-
clusion Act, and c. P. Huntington, and
Others, declare that it ought to be wiped
from the statute books without delay.
Huntington asserts that in the battle OF
life only the httest should survive, and
argues that if the white man il not able
to compete with the Chinaman be should
go to the wall. And so the agitation goes
OF. With General Harrison's record on
the Chinese question there is no telling
what may happen to the Exclusion ACT
during his term. /. would be something
in the nature Of retributive justice il it
should be repealed.
But all Of these grasping money get.
ters seem to forget that the Chinese
problem is not altogether an industrial
question. 1t is a question involving
American civilization. The fact that the
Monaghan can subsist himself. and as q
result work more cheaply than the white
man, is not the question in issue. That
point is conceded, and il 10 on that iden'
tical point that all sensible and patriotic
people are against him. 1t is because Of
the low standard OF civilization be brings
here that the gates should be closed
against him. He cannot come up to ours,
but allow him to come in unlimited num-
bers and the white man must 90 down TO
his. This is the whole subject in q nut
shell. 1t would mean the direst conse-
quences for the future. Better that never
q grape be grown in California than that
one Chinaman be permitted to enter the
Golden Gate.

Carson is filed with young men
who are surely drifting to the bad.
They seem to have no ambition above
sparring and prize fighting, and are only
in their element when manipulating a
set of boxing gloves. The trouble
that took place there lately, which re-
suited in the death OF Coronado,
should be a warning to them, and in
culcate in their minds that there is
something in this world mere honor
able and more conducive to their
welfare than "scrapping." They,
as a general thing. are qualified natur-
ally and by cultivation to do some
thing that will reflect creditably upon
them, but they don't to take
this view OF the matter. = Reno

Is marriage a faiIure7 This is q
Question which has lately been en-
gazing the attention Of the press
throughout the country. The weight
of opinion seems to be that things are
considerably mixed. Marital ties are
at least setting more lightly nowadays
than in the earlier and purer days oil
the Republic. Whether marriage be
a failure or not, the divorce mill grinds
with accelerated speed. The business
goes on with great regularity, both
East and West. The industry Is not
50 highly developed in the South as II
a in the North. One Southern state
South Carolina) has no divorce law
AT all. California and Illinois have
the most liberal laws on the subject.
In either Of these States, a failure to
provide the wife with the latest style OF
spring bonnet is considered q sufficient
cause to rend the bonds. Nevada is
not especially hard on those who pine
for separation. There are numer-
Gus grounds that may be pleaded in
this State. Population considered,

TARIRF TROUBLES.

The Senate is experiencing the beau.
ties Of constructing a high protective
tariff, and at the same time providing for
q marked reduction in the revenue. II
is hard to make matters fit on that basis.
It Is q little like riding two horses going
In opposite directions. The whole trouble
grows out Of demagoguery and downright
dishonesty. The Republican leaders have
simply been deceiving the country about
the tariff. The won the late election
on q lie. There was no such issue invol-
we'd as free trade. Now that it is all
oyer the Republican Senate is slaughter.
ing the tariff schedules quite as extern
sively as was proposed by the Democrats.
But they are bringing a good deal of crit.
icism against their party. They find it
pretty difficult to do that which they
denounced before the election. But it
must be done. Every man in the coun-
try, with as much sense as an oyster,
knew that the tariff had to be materially
modified. The man who professed TO be-
lieve otherwise was either a knave or q
fool. There was no middle ground. The
late contest went off on a liza lie ad-
vanced by ~knavery and supported by
idiocy. There is no practical difference
in the aggregate between the two politi-
cal parties on the tariff. The tariff has
got to come down and that is all there is
of ii. The Republican Senate having
finally thrown off its guise is hewing at it
with all its might. 1t is at the same
time placing the Republican party in q
most shameless attitude before the coun-
try. The history Of the country fails to
present another such instance OF open
qualification. Out Of it all, one lesson
is quite apparent. The Republican party
would rather have the Presid ency than
be right.

The Virginia Enterprise says: We
are informed by DR.. Harris that diph-
liberia has made its appearance in two
families on the Divide and in one
family at Gold Hill. The disease
as developed on the Divide is of a
very malignant type. All know well
the dangerous nature OF the disease,
therefore its presence being made
known u people will doubtless use
every possible precaution to prevent
its spread. 1t is usually thought that
diphtheria is superinduced by sewer
gas but there is neither sewer nor
stagnant water in the neighborhood in
which the disease has recently made
its appearance. Both on the Divide
and in Gold Hill (near the Overman
mine) the western gales, fresh from
the Sierras, have a free sweep.
