DE VRIES AT LINCOLN.
How the Boy Candidate Was Received
There

A correspondent of the Placer car
gus" writing from Lincoln, says:
'On Tuesday afternoon / saw a boy
on our streets who seemed to be the
center of attraction, surrounded by
scme strangers. On inquiring as to
whom it might be, I was informed that
IT was the boy nominated for Congress
by the Popocrats to combat the opin-
ions Of such intelligent giants as Reed
and his colleagues, should there prove
to be free wool enough in the country
to pull over the eyes Of the confiding
and unSuspecting, and thereby put him
there.
And as for the strangers, I was told
| that they We're FOUNDERS from Auburn
| Founders, I repeated to myself in 81
lent musing, but I did not like to ap-
pear too ignorant, so I waited to see
what part of the programme they
would play My patience was reward
ed, for soon the band began playing
Dixie and the cannons doomed. Then
the FOUNDERS got in their work on the
old liners who were hesitating to swal-
low the Bryan fusion pill. How
strongly they contended that it was
the old Jackson Democracy, and sug-
gested a Vice-Presidency, one after an
other, for soft fiattery, to the ones who
| thought the fusionists were worship
ping false gods. How they urged that
| the grave of Populism had not been
| robbed of it's platform and sneered at
the word 'anaroAy' when suggested by
the old Jeffersonian followers.
| But there was more important work
for the FOUNDERS, as the speaker ap-
| peared. There We're some cheers to be
suggested and given. On the absence
of voluntary enthusiasm on the ap-
pearance of the boy, the FOUNDERS
called the attention Of the Republican
! crowd present to it, and out of sym
pathy few responded, but the round
ers' voices We're heard even above the
din Of the small boys playing around
| the bonfires. Some asked If he (the
| sreaker) was Kelly Robinson's boy be-
| fore his name was mentioned. Kelly
was there on the stand. Intermingled
! with the sore-heads, mugwumps, rem
/ ceades and representatives of all part
| les We're Mckinley buttons sparkling
! in the crowd like dew on a haystack,
with the rising sun of prosperity and
protection kissing their lovely pres
erce.

JOHNSON ON IMMIGRATION.
The Bill He introduced in Congress
Last Winter.

(FrOm the Stockton independently
Some wage workers complain that the
Republican platform is not strong
enough on the restriction of immigra-
tion, but they will find no comfort in the
Democratic platform on that score
They should remember that 1t has taken
half century to impress the people OF
the United States with the necessity for
such restriction and that it is just such
work as Grove l.. Johnson is now doing
that has brought about the change.
Mr.. Johnson did not wait until
he was a candidate for reelection
to begin the work He has always
favored greater restrictions. Before the
Committee on immigration and Natur-
aliZatiOn of the House last February
Mr.. Johnson made an argument in favor
of the bill he introduced to further re-
strict immigration That bill is greatly
in advance of the Republican platform
or any other bill before Congress on that
subject. In that argument he likened
indiscriminate immigration to the greed
of a child who gorges himself with green
fruit and suffers in consequence those
ills that destroy so many young lives.
He said:
I'VE cannot stand any more of this
green material, even if it comes tick
eted by every Consul in every port in
ChriStendOm and able to read and write
any of the foreign languages spoken on
this earth. We must stop eating this
kind of fruit if we wish to succeed as
nation. 1t scarcely needs any statistics
to show the necessity of action, prompt
and radical on our part. The facts are
within the knowledge of all of us per-
sonally that justify, nay demand, the
passage of this bill at our hands. We
cannot, if we would, shut our eyes to
the sights that beset us on every hand,
or to close our ears to the noises that
echo and re-echo from every quarter OF
the horizon"
He showed that most of the strikes
and consequent riots that have afflicted
the country for many years were plainly
traceable to the cheapening of Ameri-
can labor by the lax manner of enforc-
ing what law there is on the subject.
He said he believed that the cause of
the strikers was usually just, but he
condemned their resort to violence and
said:
Their protests against the lowering of
wages have resulted in their defeat, be-
cause their places have been filled by
foreign laborers brought here by the GU
pidity of the wealthy capitalists of the
nation to take the places of American
laborers"
Those men who hope for better laws
and a better enforcement of them on
this grave subject should support the
| man who thus labors for the promotion
of a cause that, while the interests Of
good Government demand it, Is more
especially to the interest of those who
work for wages and want those wages
to be safe from all causes that can i'm
pair them or degrade the laborer

ceeded in holding up the few clerks ON
duty, also the bank cashier, and loot
ing the bank.
AS soon as they reached the street in
their effort to escape they were met
by several citizens and IA hot battle
ensued. After the smoke had cleared
away, the three robbers and one clerk
were found lying dead. Victor
