who wanted to remain IN California. He pro-
posed 10 DO it IN this way. He said, "Mebbe
some Cinnamon be Tested for lottery. Mebbe
you ellie some Chinaman 60 back China. Spose
. SIX Cinnamon get Tested for lottery. You lette
them 20 back China in place six Cinnamon lkee
stay. They pay you money. Heap other places

and when the steamer sailed send them back.
OF course when the time for trial Of the six for
lottery came up there would be no evidence ana
they would lie discharged. MI Alden could not
