IS THE GOVERNOR A MADMAN?

In all the history of civilization
never has there been a spectacle so
humiliating, so disgraceful to a
proud and free people, as is the
spectacle of the whole power of the
State being brought to bear to
wreak out personal vengeance, to
compel men elected to lead the peo-
pie to betray them instead, and to
basely carry out the executive man.

public sentimentf Burke declared
that the whole people could not be

publicly humiliate, insult aud pun

punishment to be inflicted by the
hands of the men who were elected
by the people themselves to protect
their interests. With Luzenberg

10 great opportunity for Chinese
slave dealers and white confederates

have made 800, 900 already by inn
porting large numbers Of Chinese
through San Francisco for service
at the Exposition and giving a bond
of 5000 FOR each that he or she will
return to China within thirty days
after the close OF the Exposition.
