Calling attention to the extent that to which this State -had been over: run by the Mongol hordes, he sani that when General Haneuck receutly passed throagh Truckee, the citizens there turned out to greet him, but two-thirds of the crowd was madeup of .Chinese. He clainied that thiis.race was crowding white men out of the lumber camps in that section, and said that next summer there would be trouble all along the fine. He would lead the movement, and expected to be sustained : by three hundred men who for the sakes of their ewn kind were prepared if necessary to face shot and shell or any other emergency that might arise.
