Opium Seizures in San Francisco.


Chinatown was in Juror last
night when score of inspectors OF
customs and internal revenue in
vaded It's marts to seek for contra
band opium. The searching party
organized at 1880 o'clock at the
Surveyors Office, and as rapidly as
possible took possession in squads
of dozen places.
The searchers were directed by
Collector Of Internal Revenue j.
c. Quinn and Deputy Surveyor of
the Port Varney Gaskell. Search
ing began Immediately and was
done thoroughly. At ia Waverly
place, large quantity of counter
felt stamps was found and seized,
and two of the opium seizures made
later in the evening bore these false
stamps.
The seizures of opium were as
follows: 107 five-tael cans at 8134
Dupont street; 430 taeIs of loose
opium in jars, equal to Sc five-tael
cans, at 1014 Dupont street; 8 five
tael tin cans in travellers yalise
at 742 Commercial street; 20 five
tael cans at 8O94 Clay street and
$40 cans and SO balls of crude
opium at 707 Jackson street; 20
five-tael cans at 1873 Commercial
street. The seizures amount to
1,O40 cans and are valued at about
$4,000.
The largest seizure, at 7O7 jack
son street, was made in a brick ed
cave under the floor. A nail led
to it's being found by Deputy Col
lector Jones. Most of the opium is
of Chinese manufacture and is of
the Lal Yuen brand.
At lib Pacific street the search
ers found lottery agency behind

A small seizure of opium was
made yesterday aboard the Mari
posa, hence from Australia. Ten
five-tael tins were found in the

.ALLLANCR EXCHANGE CO..

[ "eALLLAN NEE -E-AGE1A ACTE %. ~
The Me,'c,sly in its comments on the
circular OF the Alliance Exchange Co.,
published in TIE GRAPHIC shows its
utter ignorance of the workings and
methods of the alliance. The farmers
| composing the alliance, however,
thoroughly understand their own bush
ness affairs and require no advice from
such business men as Bro. Hebron to
enable them to properly manage them.
Every member OF the alliance who
ever shipped cattle to the American
Live Stock Commission Co., knows
that he received a rebate of not less
than 80 Per cent from the regular
charges of the other commission firms
doing business in Kansas City.
The Merc,tfy says that the Alliance
Exchange Co, did not secure the
reduction il. the price of binding Irvine
as claimed, because others sold the
twiBe rs cheap as it could be procured
through the alliance. That argument
is q specimen of the logic he uses in
the discussion OF economic questions.
It would require very little business
experience, to teach a man of limited
intelligence that one merchant, or
combination Of merchants, can not
keep the price of staple article higher
than tue price at which it is sold by
another. Therefore. when the ALI
anee Exchange Co., by a combination
Of the buyers, secured a reduction in
the price Of twine every dealer in Irvine
was necessarily compelled to cores
pOndingly reduce the price TO his Gus
toners, or go out of the business.
The 1Eeresgy seems to be entirely in
the dark as to the character of the
alliance business organizations. The
Alliance Exchange Co, is = simple
cooperative association, composed of
those farmers who take stock in the
company. The aGieeFs are elected by
the stockholders to manage the bust
ness, and have no more interest in the
business than other stockholders. It
is exactly like hundreds of other CO.
operative organizations that have been
the means Of saving millions of dollars
70 its members
But of course. such associations axe
uniformly opposed and misrepresented /
by the p!utocratie editors who are
working solely in the Interest Of cor
pOrations and Jaiddlemsn.

50 excited the iufanmatory imagina-
ton Of the Mercury man that he was
incapable Of calmly reading and digest

article was Occa5ioned by the fact
announced with great gusto that the
old parties were going to fuse
on candidates for judge IN the various
districts i'll order to defeat the candi-
dates of the peoples party, and COM
mentiug on such fusion the article
shows that the papers who are joining
in the hue and cry against the candi-
dates Of the peQple's party are the very
papers that aPplaUded the acnuittal Of
the notorious Judge Botkin,a fiHe speci-
men of republican judge.

unknown that a court is corrupt on

Judges" While as rule judges are

eminent judges decided political

is maintained, however, that a judge
should possess such qualifications as

tice and fundamental rules Of law, for
the danger to the community from dis

and ability.
