@ Chinese question in San Francisco. The sub
jects of the mikado are hocking to the Pacifc
coast in numbers that excite discussion con.

newcomers have their friends, but also their
uncompromising enemies. The latter say that
they have all the vices peculiar to oriental
nations, and that they land under contract to
work for small wages on the farms and rail-
roads and in the restaurants. These tmml-

put to them by government officers, that the
conclusion is that they have bsen prepared for
the ordeal. 1t is said that they have no idea OF
remaining in the country after having saved

une with the poorer classes. On the
other hand their defenders say that the
Japanese aborerS do not smoke opium, that
they soon adapt themselves co our customs and
styles of dress, that they are invariably neat
and civil, and that they show willingness to
join our trades unions and keep up the rata =
wages. An American traveller in Japan, who,
on his return to the Pacific coast recently, was
much struck with the increase in the number Of
the Japanese whom he encountered, and whoss
views about them are not favorable, declares
''that it will be grave question for our gov
eminent when it will have to face the jllse
claims of the people for restriction on ths
steady inpour of the Japanese. as it is certain
that Japan will never consent co any treaty or
exclusion act, such as have been made with
China. but viii retaliate--a measure which wuI
be the death blow to our large and yearly ln'
creasiug trade with that country"
