Chinese in tho United States.


Senator Stanford, OF California, has
said that the driving out OF the Chinese
from his state would result in great in
convenience and loss, for the Chinese
as laborers have become necessary.
In addition to this utterance is tho
absence OF any indication Of general
rejoislng over the recent decision where
Chinese are thicksst aud where they
constitute third OF the Chinese popu.
lation OF the country. Now comes the
portland OregoniaR and Gays:
Mr. Cleveland Is said to regard the act as un.
constitutional We think be IL right. And we
think, moreover. that great deal more fuss Is
made about the coming OF comparatively few
Chinese than there Is any sense In making so
long, at least, az we leave the door from Europe
for o worse class wide open. II we had at this
moment 10000 more Chinese laborers In the PA'
clio northwest to do work which white, men
will not do, and which yet Is necessary Tor deVel'
QpmeHt OF the country, the result would be good
for everybody.
Most OF this fuss" has been made on
tho Pacific coast, which has been I'm.
derstood to know moro about the
Chinese question than any other Amer.
lean locality. The rest OF the country
has been impressed by the protest Of
the Pacific cast against the increase OF
Chinese immigration, and while the
country generally has not suffered 1t
was thought that an extension Of the
evils as they were said to exist on the
western border would be bad all
around. Besides this was tho desire to
como to the rescue OF the Pacific coast
communities.
Can it BIO that the country has been
misled? Is it possible after all that the
Chinese, instead OF being curse, are in
fact blessing2-that instead OF trying
to reduce the number we would do well
to have more OF them? Here is one Of
the foremost newspapers Of the Pacific
coast expressing desire for 100000
more Chinese laborers in the Pacific
northwest to do work which white men
will not do, and which yet is necessary
for development OF the country"
These latter day opinions on the Chi
nose question have an odd sound in
comparison with all we used to hear
from our Pacific brethren. Perhaps
conditions have changed. 1t is not
easy to understand. 1t may be neces.
sary TO do some more investigating.

Business interests are IN a precarious

is planning to strike at our manufacture

spite OF the present tariff, the balance
