hardest fight of all, there being three
tickets in the field, one for Bray, an
other for Schatzlein, while the third
was for Elvers. The Bray ticket, which

the Passmore proposition to comprom-
Use After much expression, it was
agreed to give Mr.. Passmore a hearing
at the next regular meeting and thus
hold back legal proceedings for a few

ened to their hearts content.

A Gang of White Hoodlums Persec ut
5M. the Cinnamon,

5.Iv the Cinnamon.

Galena street. called on the county at
torney yesterday with serious griev-
ance. He said that for long time he
and other Chinese had been subjected
to great annoyance and injury by a
gang of white hoodluns and young men
who might be supposed to possess more
humanity than they have exhibited.
10y said he could not keep pane of
glass in any of his windows because
the hoodlums would throw stones
through them, and he could not so On
the streets without running the risk of
being stoned and attacked by the mob.
He told of one Chinaman who had been
struck in the eye with a rock, which
destroyed his sight. 10y said the po-
lice would not arrest the violators of
the law. and the Chinese were almost
helpless because they could not set no
white person to give evidence against
the young rascally white boys. 10y
said the Chinese had determined to put
an end to the danger and annoyance
and would pay so to any witness to
the assaults who would testify against
the assalants of the Chinese. Deputy
County Attorney Alley informed 10y
that the county attorney was ready to
prosecute any one against whom the
Chinese could bring evidence.

tinues thrifty. Early corn is also be-
ginning to deterioate in the north por-

nicely.
