 The common working classes, who vote, own little homes and pay taxes here have either got to leave California or the Chinese? Which do you prefer, your fellow voter or the heather, with his vices, his slave wages, his robbing the country of all the money he can lay hands on to take back with him to China? If the question is not given a legal solution soon, you may look for bloodshed here, for men will not starve peaceably. It. is not human nature. There is greater division here than at the East between Capital and Iabop, be- tween employe and employed.

THE CHINESE QUESTION,
As Forcibly Put by R. H. Smith of Riverside. Cal. From Personal Letter to a Nevtovn Rsla. tive.

There is great excitement in all this section over the Chinese question. If you could see it at first hands you would sympathize with California in its efforts to rid itself of these heathen. The Chinese here are really slaves, being only coolies under the control of the Six Companies. The reason why the Chi nese do not register as the Gerry act re- quires is because tho Six Companies has forbidden it. This would prevent re- turn to China, where they all hope to go back some day with the money they make here It is really question of authority betweenthe : SIX COMPANIES AND THE UNITED sTATKs. These Chinese live like cattle. spending hardly anything here and draining Cali fornia of thousands of dollars annually. They spread the vices of opium smoking and prostitution and are a menace to every family. A bright little fellow I know has been taught cigarette smoking by his mothers Chinese cook.

Thanksgiving Day.

Governor Mckinney has issued the
following proclamation, calling upon
the citizens of Virginia to unite in
the observance of Thanksgiving day:
SIN solemn recognition and pro-
found acknowledgment of the mercy
and goodness of Almighty God dur
ing the past year, and with hearts
filled with gratitude for His tender
care and innumerable blessings, and
especially for the exemption of our
people from the dread scourge of
pestilential epidemic, / hereby call
upon the people of this State to as
semble on Thursday, the 30th day of
November, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and
ninety-three, within their respective
places of divine worship. to give
thanks to our Heavenly Father for
all the great benefits which we have
received at His hands, and for all
His loving kindness to us and to all
men. While we meet together to
give thanks for all the great bless
ings vouchsafed to US, let us not for
get to offer our aims and give of our
to those who are in need,
sickness, and tribulation. Let us
kindly remember on that day the
poor and the sick, and do all in our
power to ameliorate their condition,
that we may4lave the consolation of
knowing that we did what we could
to tighten the burdens of our brother
in this life.

Hon. s. S. Wilkins, of Northamp-
ton, is prominently spoken OF
throughout the State not only as a
candidate for the Office of superin-
tendent of the penitentlary but as
probable winner in such a contest, in
the event he enters the race. He is
not yet, however, we are advised, "in
the hands of his friends, though
daily almost in receipt of communi-
cations from influential citizens OF
the State, pledging him their infiu-
ence and support for the Office.
With the Office thus seeking the man,
it looks as if Mr.. Wilkins must sue
cumb to the wishes of his friends and
allow his name to be used for the
position, and the selection OF him, if
he consents, would not only ensure
to the State in him faithful and
efficient official, but would be a just
recognition Of a section of the State
which has always deserved well Of
the Commonwealth and received lit
tie in return. If he is a candidate
for the position Accomac will, of
course, be foremost in the fight for
him.

Death Of the Judge who Sentenced
John Brown.

A special to the Washington Post
snys: Judge Richard Parker, who
presided at the trial of John Brown,
the noted abolitionist, and his &C.
complies at Charlestown, now in
West Virginia, and sentenced Brown
to be hung, died at his residence in
Winchester last week. Judge Par
ker was in his eighty fourth year.
He was a son of the late Judge Rich
ard E. Parker, Of the Court of Ap.
peals of Virginia, and graduated in
law at the University of Virginia.
In 1S49 he was elected a representa-
tive to the Thirty-first Congress of
the United States, and in 1851 judge
of the Frederick Circuit Court, which
position he held for a number of
years. Judge Parker's course in the
celebrated insurrectionists' trials
was marked with that fairness and
impartiality which elected the adj
miration of all. During the recon
struction period he was forced to re-
tire from the bench by the military
authorities, and then he opened a
law school in Winchester, which was
attended by many who have since
attained eminence in their profession.
Judge Parker until few years ago
was in active practice, and was one
of the leading lawyers of the State.
He was a member, and for many
years vestryInan of Christ Pro
testant Episcopal church of this city.
Judge Parker was also one of the
most prominent Masons of the State,
being past master of Hiram Lodge.
OF this city, and also past grand
master of Virginia. He married
Evelyn Tucker Moss, of Virginia,
who died few years ago. Judge
Parker was type of the courtly
Virginia gentlemen of the past. His
death leaves but one of those who
had any connection with the famous
trial, General Henry Wise, then
Governor of Virginia, and General
Robert E. Lee, who commanded the
United States troops that captured
the round house where John Brown
took refuge. having long since passed
away Judge William B. Taliaferro,
of Gloucester, who commanded the
Virginia troops at the execution, is
the one survivor, and is hale and
hearty.

Governor McKinney's Forthcoming

Governor McKinney's forthcoming
messages to the General Assembly in
December. will it is stated, be I'M
usually important this year One
message will deal with general ques-
tions; the other will embrace the
Governors recommendation with re-
gard to taxation. In the latter he
will recommend the collection of the
State income tax on amounts above
$500. With this income tax and the
adoption Of system which will en-
able the Commonwealth to collect all
her taxes it is possible, he thinks, that
at some future time the tax rate may
be reduced. The Governor will sug-
gest that these recommendations
shall be referred by the Legislature
to special committee, who will re-
port at the following session. An
other irnportantr recommendation will
be an increase of the salaries of the
Supreme Court judges and the eigh-
teen circuit judges Of the State. The
suggestions will be for the proposed
increase to be made before these
Judges are elected by his Legisla-
ture. This policy, it is believed, will
insure the election of the ablest men
in Virginia for the important posi-
tiops-

Fatal Oyster Battle.

BALTIMORE, Nd, November ii
The first fight of the season between
the State fishing force and the illegal
dredgers occurred in the Chesapeake
this afternoon. AS result, Captain
John Mister, of Baltimore, one of the
best known oystermen on the Bay,
was killed. He was captain of the
Ostrich, which put into Holland Is

commenced to dredge on forbidden
grounds. The State sloop Maria, in
command of Captain Waters Ford,
hailed the Ostrich and notified her
to stop. She signalled ''yes,n but
kept on, and the State boat opened
fire. Then followed a chase of over
thirty miles, the State sloop firing at
intervals. When Herring Bay,
near the Patuxent river. was reached

halted. Captain Mister was found
dead on the forecastle, with a bullet
through his head. The mate sur

In speaking Of the recent elections
the Louisville Courier Journal says:
In New York, the Democrats nomi-
mated man, whose personal record
was Objectionable. He was boldly
opposed by leading Democrats and
Democratic papers, and was badly
beaten. In Iowa the Republicans
nominated man whose personal
record was fully as Objectionable,
but he was supported by the solid
Republican press and party, and was
triumphantly elected, In the old re-
turning board days, Republicans who
stole elections were rewarded with
offices by the National Administra-
ton. In these Democratic days
Democrats who are charged with
stealing elections are buried beneath
overwhelming majorities.

Governor Mckinney has received a
letter from Mrs. Julia Reynolds, OF

properly detained on Tangier Island.
Her story is that the lad shipped

it is alleged. taken by Captain Wick,

and without the means of escape.
II am told,n she continues, THAT he
is in the hands of a man or set of men
who are without sympathy, and IS
receiving at their hands treatment
unknown even to human slavery"
The lads condition was made known
by man who escaped from the is
land, and the mother begs the Cover
nor to interfere in his behalf. The
Governor replied that this was a
matter for the courts to decide, and
that he had no authority in the
