be Sroirej.

Rev. DR.. Masters, superintendent of
our work among the Chinese on this
coast. has an article in the current num-
Der of the ChautauQuan that should
command the attention OF the press of
the country, and especially of our repre-
sentatiyes at Washington. His theme is
the opium traffic in California, and in
graphic paragraphs he sets forth the ex-
tent OF the indulgence in the use of the
drug in this country, and the evil of its
effects. He claims that opium smoking
proves the ruin, physical and moral, not
only of the Chinese. its principal vic
tins, but Of thousands Of our own peo-
pie. and shows the direct completely of
this government in the infamous traffic
For the sake of the revenue derived
from the tax paid on its importation,
We tempt TO q suicidal Indulgence Our
course in this particular is presented
in striking contrast with that of other
and less pretentious governments, as
follows:
Fifty years ago 2.opo chests of opium
were confiscaIe6 from smuggling Brit
ish ships az the mouth of the Canton
river. worth sI1.0c0.caa yet the Emperor.
To Kwong, ordered it destroyed. prefer

rather than i'll his depleted treasury
with the proceeds of his peoples ruin
and shame.
a few weeks ago the schooner Hen
rietta. from Victoria, B. C. was board
ed by the Hawaiian Government and l.
20 pounds Of opium extract, worth up-
wards Of Seo.6tl, was seized. taken sew
eral uiles from shore, where the tins
were chopped open and dumped into the
sea How the unselfsh philanthropy of
that heather emperor and the uncom-
promising resistance TO wrong on the
part OF that little Island Government
rebuke the sordidness OF this great and
Christian nation that viii legalize an in
famous commerce for the sake of dollars
stained with blood and infamy-yea,
even with the blood OF its own citizens,
There Is only one way 10 deal with
The evil. and that Is the plan suggested
by the better class OF Chinese in their
petition 70 Congress many years ago:
Remove that opium that Is nanufactur-
= -oE SL1-eaA-As p-E l9>S> LIo4A N-s l2iAlA
prohibit its Importation and sale under
heavy penalties, empower the officers Of
internal revenue TO destroy The cursed
stuff wherever il is found. as contraband
goods, and forever shut the treasury
OF this nation against 8 revenue derived
from human MISERY, vice and shame
Il can be done II the step is taken soon.
But if We wait until the traffic has Ia

IhraIled our people in lis chains it may

where there is a great
demand for the services OF

the trouble caused by the
