AN EFFORT is now being made in the
South to raise a fund to provide COM
Portable homes for the INDECENT widows
of ex.C Confederate soldiers. The widows
of all the soldiers of the federal army,
rich as well as poor, are p%ensioned
by the national government with
money, a large portion of which is ex-
acted from the poor Confederate
widows referred to-, by taxes on the
nec~essaries of life, but the latter have
no government to pension them, and
their only escape from starvation is in
the poor's house of their respective
counties or on the charity of their own
people who are able to help them. APP
peals for subscription to such a fund
should not be denied.

NOTORIOUS CHINAMAN KILLED.
Little Pete, the most noted ChinamaD
in San Francisco, vas murdered by his
countrymen in Chinatown Saturday
night. He was sitting in a chair in a
Chinese barber shop, when three
Chinese entered and shot him, infict-
ing a wound from the effects of which
he died in q short time. The murderers
were arrested. The murder is the out
come of a quarrel between two of the
Chinese Six Companies, and it is sup
posed the murderers are Highbinders
hired to do the job.
Little Pete had a varied and remark.
able career in San Francisco, and for
years had been the most influential
Chinaman in that part of the country.
Whenever any of his co%untrymen were
in trouble Little Pete was always called
upon to help them out, and he achieved
a reputation for jury fixing that almost
landed him in the p%enitentiary.
He was at the head of the business Of
importing Chinese women to this coun.
try for immoral purposes, and waxed
wealthy. Little Pete, although he
spoke English %luently, retained his
Chinese dress as a matter of policy.
He controlled many of the gambling
dens in Chinatown, andl his revenue
from that source were large. He wss
an all.around sport. He played the
races heavily, and made some big win
ninps. He was so successful in picking
winners that about a year ago the race
track people became suspicious, and it
was found he had a number of ofjockeys
in his employ. Little Pete was ruled
off the turf, together with the dishonest
jockeys.

SOME PEOPLE who don't know what
they are talking about say, not emil
grafton, but education, is the chief hope
for the welfare and happiness of the
negroes of this country. If such peo-
pie knew any thing of the real condition
of the negroes in the South before, in
an evil hour for themselves. they were
~emancipated and lost the care and pro-
lection of their masters, they would
think more and talk less. Book learn
ing is grieving to white people, let alone
to negroes. A little learning is a dan
gerous thing. When the negroes were
slaves they were the best cared for and
the happiest people on the face of the
earth.

MONDAY EVENING, JAN. 25, 1887.

THE WASHINGTON newspaper whose
attempted defamation and injury, under
the suise of interest in it, of that portion
of the original District of Columbia
which has been r%etroceded to Virginia,
has been alluded to by the GAZETTE,
saw the concern it manifests in
Alexandria is sincere. Why, for
years past the paper referred to-,
with the exception of daily illusions
to the new postoKce in its city, has been
filed with accounts of alleged outlawry,
outrages and disorder in Alexan-
dria county, and the occasional arrests
made at low houses and at policy shops
in this city give both its local and edi-
torial writer's full scope for the pub
LEGATION of their imaginations. Its love
for this city and county is so intense
that it wants Congress to seize them
both and annex them to Wash
inpton. The real estate agents in
its own city say its constant defamation
of Al-xandria county has really deferred
some people who contemplated buying
homes [ ere fr"m doing so. 1t would
do less harm if it would devote more OF
its time and attention to the policy
dealers, card players, bucket shop
keepers, horse racers and the numerous
other sorts of gamblers, and to the other
vicious characters on its W side OF
the river, and let the police authorities
here attend to their own business in
their own way. The Judge of Alexandria
county a d the mayor of Alexandra
city are both temperate in their
habits and both have long been
CONSTANT members OF Protestant
churches, and the chief of police OF
the city has managed that force salts
~factorily for a quarter OF a century, so
that it may we'll be supposed that they
can be relied upon to discharge their
duties without the unasked advice or
assistance of a newspaper published in
another city, infinitely more vicious in
every respect, in proportion to popula-
