CHINAMEN AS US. SOLDIERS
The Regiment in Portland, Ore, a
Great Successfully Have Another.
(San Francisco Chronicle)

lSan Francisco GnrOnicle.)
A petition recently sent to Governor
Gage voiced the prayer of the Chinese \
citizens here that they may recruit two
military companies in the Chinatown of
San Francisco.
The recruits for service under the stars
and stripes will range in age from 10 TO
20, and 1t is proposed to have forty Of
them in each company.
The first Chinese regiment under Of
fetal commission to be organized in
California is not the first on the coast
The Chinese of Portland Ore. were first
in the American military field Captain
Seid Back, a Chinaman of much travel in
his own country as well as IN the United
States, took the first practical steps to-
wards utilizing his COUntrymen IN
America for soldiers.
The captain was recently on a visit to
San Francisco and the description he
gave of the Chinese regiment he had
organized in Oregon is responsible for
the great interest which our local CeleS-
tials are taking in the subject
Captain Seid Back says that his oregon
regiment has been a complete success, and
if that is the case there is no reason 10
suppose that the Chinese OF California
would not be equally pTesentable IN the
military field.
The petition to Governor Gage from the
California Cinnamon is as follows;
TO His EXcellency, the Hon. Henry
T. Gage, Governor of the State OF CALI
fornia, Sacramento, CaL-Sir: We, tho
and residents of this state most earnestly
request your favorable consideration and
support in an effort We have undertaken
to establish, equip and maintain a mill
tary OrganiZa ton to be governed by the
military regulations of the United States
and of the state of California, and, II We
prove ourselves worthy, TO finally become
a part of the state guard
I'VE have undertaken this venture with
the belief that we may some day serve
this our country, as other good citizens
do, and we also firmly believe the mill
tary training we receive viii make us
better men and bring us closer TO all
Americans, and tend to place US on a
plane with all good citizens OF this great
and glorious country.
I'VE are being organized preliminarily
by MessTs. Seid Back, Jr., and MOy Bow
respectively of a most mer1tOrious indie
pendent military company at portland,
Ore.
Both these gentlemen are studens of
Bishop SCOTS Military academy IN that
city and have the Endorsement OF the
Oregon state guard officials in their eff
forts. Therefore, in view of the fore
going, we most earnestly petition you 10
aid us as far as you can lawfully IN our
undertaking. We are, sir, very respect
fully your most Obedient servants
This petition has been signed by Wah
Shuck, merchant; Wong FOOk, capitalist,
and thirty-tWO other Chinese residents Of
San Francisco.
The petition was presented in person by
Seid Back, jr., an educated young China
man of Portland, Ore, whose father is
the richest merchant of that city, and
years as a student of Bishop SCOTS Mill
tary academy, has already organized a,
native-boTn company in that city, which
has proven to be a great success

SPEAKING OF ANTS.

A cursory perusal of the speeches of
WOlcott and Lodge reveals the fact
that the Republican party is some
thing OF an anti" organization itself.
1t is anti-silver, anti-repubhc, anti
Boer, anti-Lincoln, anti-Monroe, anti
reform, anti-civil service. anti-consti-
tuition and auti-American.
It is pro- gold, British, pro-con-
quest, pro-imperiaIism, procumbent be-
fore the golden calf.
1t throws kisses at the soldiers, al
though it fed them embaImed beef; it
bows to the shade of Lincoln. but
kisses the hem of Hsnnas robe; it
glories in the reDublicanism of the
past, yec shouts for the imperialism of
the future; it is proud of emancipating
slaves in the south and prouder of
recognizing the institution of slavery
in the Sulus; it calls for an investiga-
ton Of fraud and takes It out in call
ing; it has whitewashed every rascal
who has been found guilty of dishonest
or disgraceful conduct.
And this is the consistency of the
anti-constitution party. which treats
the fundamental law of the republic
as "a piece of yellow paper and an
nounces its intention of governing IN
willing peoples outside of the consti-

HANNA'S TICKET.

The nominations at Philadelphia are
a triumph for pIutocracy. The plat
form is an apology for greed. monopoly
and imperialism.
William Mckinley, the tried and
faithful servant of these forces, has
been chosen their apostle again; he
has long been their peculiar represent
ative and acknowledged advocate.
The doctrine of excessive taxation.
under the guise of patriotism, bears
his name and made his fame. 1t is the
doctrine OF plutocracy. the system
which has centralized wealth and pow
eT in the hands of a few men and cor
porations. the generator of trusts. the
forerunner of syndicate Imperialism.
It's application means. as its results
have demonstrated. the enrichment of
all the horde Of monopolists. bounty
grabbers, subsidy schemers. trust
spectators. pet banks. favorite con-
tractors and other oppressors of the
people.
AS chairman Of the ways and means
committee, William Mckinley permit
ted these people to invade the capitol
and write into the tariff law every
license they wanted to levy unearned
tribute upon the people. He allowed
them to take from agriculture and give
to the corporation, to divert protection
from labor to the trust.
He betrayed the cause of bimetaIlism
four years ago and recommended a bill
for the single gold standard in the ex-
act form approved by the bankers as
ISOLATION. He stands upon a gold plat
form today and boasts of his repudia-
ton Of silver. He never fails to sane
ton and to recommend what the money
power demands. no matter how it may
conflict with his former declarations.
He is pledged to further any measure,
10 further any scheme. to sign any bill
for the benefit of the bankers and
trusts which they desire to have be-
come law, and to use all the infu-
ence of the executive office to secure
the passage of statutes permitting them
to tax the people at viii or to involve
them IN any sort of trouble or expense
IN order to make a profit or pocket a
difference.
For vice president this party of i'm
perial plutocracy presents the choice
of Platt and Quay, the chief corrup-
tionists of the bOss-ridden states Of
New York and Pennsylvania Theodore
Roosevelt. behind whose military rec
ord is the scandal breeding crowd who
neglected and mismanaged our soldiers
in the war with Spain.
But the vice presidential candidate
Is comparatively an insignificant per
sonage in a presidential campaign; he
controls no patronage, constructs no
cabinet, declares no war and has moth
ing to do with the farming out of gov
eminent funds. Roosevelts face viii
make good mask for the actua; per-
formers, but the spoilsmen will con
tinue TO look to Mckinley for the dis
tribution of Hanna's favors.
