Chinese Enumeration.

Mr.. EDITOR: Your proposition
in Saturdays issue of the ADvER-
User on the Asiatic problem would
not solve the same to the end
sought by mechanics and trades
men.
believe the present passport
system to be rotten, and that its
effect is to create a monopoly in
passports and permits to land
which would stand little investi-
cation by the Legislature. 1t has
never accomplished anything for
the mechanic, and the same can
probably be said with equal truth
of it's effect on the planting in
dustries.
There is, unfortunately, but one
course that will satisfactorily solve
the problem-ToTAL EXCLUSION.
We cannot hope for this under
existing conditions, SO give us, if
anything, a simple law that can
not be evaded Stop licensing
Asiatics, continue licenses to such
as are now in business during their
pleasure the licenses to be not
transferable. Make it unlawful for
anyone to employ Asiatics in any
mechanical work, and you have as
effective measures as can be de-
vised to successfully cope with the
problem in its present aspect.
believe the franchise in the
Constitution of 1887 contains some
thing more than the mere privilege
of voting, and it is the refusal of
the Supreme Court to recognize
the rights of "the people in their
Interpretation of the Constitution
that has blocked legislation on this
most vital question.
It is an idea evolved by the
Supreme Court of this country that
it's citizens have no rights other
than voting that aliens need to
respect--a proposition altogether
new in national jurisprudence.
Think of the United States Su-
preme Court, or the courts of Eng
land, France or Germany, making
such rulings as we have had here
on rights Of Asiatic aliens. We
have rights and, having them, dare
defend them. The mechanics and
tradesmen of this country have
been patient, too patient for their
own good they have been just in
their demands, and it is this very
manifest spirit of fairness on their
part which makes the "class legis-
lation" handicap Of the Supreme
Court so CALLING to their sense Of
manhood and constitutional rights.
A country whose fundamental
principles are built on such n tech
nical quicksand az the above
mentioned decision would lead us
to believe ours to be, has no more
to hope for than the fate Of the
house similarly built, Of which we
read in biblical lore. ] sec Hawai-
ians, who are capable mechanics,
seeking employment, while the
| agent Of their sovereign finds pre-
ference for their celestial competi-
tors, and still there are some peo-
pie among M who wonder at the
audacity Of Hawaiians banding
together for patriotic purposes

A CHAMBER OF HORRORS.
THE SHOTGUN THAT CHRIS EVANS
USED.
1t Is Now on Exhibition, with Other
Implements That Caused I've De-
tectiyes' Death, at the
Arcade Depot.

The '"Chamber OF Horrors" as De-
tective VIII Smiths sanctum at the Ar
cade depot of the Southern Pacific Rail
road company is known, has received
some valuable additions, and in view OF
the tragedies with which these objects
are connected, they are particularly in
teresting.
Detective Smiths den is located near
the train dispatcher's Office and is not
accessible to everybody, but by proper
application it may be inspected at times.
1t contains revolvers, shotguns, burg.
lars tools, weapons of all descriptions
that have by deeds of violence become
identified with the annals of crime, and
also some very rare antiquities pertain
ing to the first European arrested in
California. The collection is not only
interesting as review OF what has
been done by members OF the crimina.
fraternity who have more or less suc-
cessfully COPIED with the dangerous task
of holding up trains, or of criminals in
this state and the territories who paid
with their life at the end of rope for
transgressions agasnst the laws.
The new additions to the chamber"
are peculiarly adapted to draw atten-
tion, because they are the murderous
tools by which Chris Evans and John
Sontag, the California train robbers,
blew two men into eternity, and defied
a combination of raill DAD detectives,
sheriffs, constables and Indian trailers
that followed them up for many weeks,
only to return home. foiled and discour-
aged.
Amcng the new additions comes first
the shotgun with which the train robber
Evans wounded Deputy Sheriff Witty at
Visalia, on the 9Th of August, and killed
Vic Wilson and Andy McGinnis at Pine
Ridge, on the 18th of September. 1t is
very ordinary weapon, 12 guage, un-
adorned by any makers mama and such
one as might be bought new in any
gunmaker's shop for about $14 cash.
A leather thong, from which the con-
Meeting strap has been cut, is still at
tached to the stock, just back of the
triggers. The missing strap was used
by Evans to carry the gun from the
shoulder in an inverted position. 1t is
supposed that he dropped the gun when
it impeded his fight toward Fresno
flats. Next come two ammunition sacks
of home make, very coarsely put to-
gether. Evans's is little newer than
Sontag's, which is very greasy and the
color of adobe mud. Both are half full
of cartridges. These consist of A and
45 center-fre cartridges for Smith &
Wesson and Colt revolvers. There are
also A and 40 50 Winchester rifle cart
ridges, besides some wire cartridges for
the gun mentioned.
The last exhibit is the shell of the
cartridge that sent McGinnis on the
road to eternity.
But Evans and Sontag themselves are
not in the collection.
