Great Falls 10 essentially an anti-Chinese

say that he wiz not try to repeat it Al
coon a. Il became noissd about town that
. genuine Chinaman was here in search Of
. suitable location for laundry the indig-
nation Of everybody knew no bounds.
"Run him outW Throw him in the

sions were heard on every side. The labor
unions held an impromptu mass meeting
ct oo'clock tonight to take steps to COM
pei the Monaghan to leave. While the
meeting was in session the police quietly
nabbsd the Celestial and hustled him
OF to Jail TO prevent him
from falling . victim to mob
violence. As soon a. It became known
that the Chinaman was under arrest the
meeting dispersed and everybody fastened
towards the Jail. The crowd grew rapidly.
and by the time the Jail was reached there
were nearly 1000 in the throng. The best
Of order prevailed, though few hot
headed ones advocated storming the Jail
and hanging the Chinaman. Such action
was severely denounced by the better ele-
ment, who only asked to have assurance
from the police that the Chinaman wonld
be ordered out Of town tomorrow. Sergeant
Moran made brief speech in behalf Of the
law, and assured the waiting crowd that
he would put the object of their wrath
aboard the first outgoing train tomorrow.
The crowd at once dispersed after giving
three cheers for the officer. Late tonight
all IL quiet around the Jail and everybody
II pleased that the affair terminated in .
peaceful manner.
Four years ago Chinaman came here
TO start laundry and was handled pretty
roughly. He was turned adrift on the
Missouri river in boat without any oars
and sent down over the dam. The boat
capsized, but he succeeded in swimming
20 the shore on the other side and escaped
before the crowd could cross the river. 1t
will probably be several years before an.
other Chinaman will try to locate here.
