THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT.
NEVADA CITY, CAL,
NevadaConnty Oficial Press.
Established i in 1860.
BROWN & CALKINS, Proprietors.
SATURDAY. MARCH 25.
Ap (eryAeeee VIEW.
The Eastern press as a rule have a
poor understanding -of the Chinese
question from praefical standpoints.
In fact the mass of the people there
are very slow in awakening to the
seriousness of the evil thafjhangs so
Occasionally in the midst of the sea of ignorance and sentimental prejudice on
the other side of the Rockiés rises up
some sign that there are exceptions
to the rule. One of these beacons of
common sense is what the Chicago
Republican said when the Chinese
Legation at ‘Washington _ threatened that in case the Immigration
Bill passed, _China_would suspend
its commercial relations with this
country. Here are the Tribune's
words; _‘‘The ‘commercial ‘relations
with China consist chiefly of imports.
Last year this country purchased tea,
firecrackers and jim cracks from
China to the amount of $22,358,958
from this country amounting to $5,447,281, or less than one-quarter as
much as we bought from the celestials. Is the member of the Chinese
legation authorized to say that the
Celestials will refuse to sell us tea
for Mexican silver. dollars if we
stop receiving their hordes of Coolies
shipped hither on speculation by the
Six Companies? What nonsense!
The Mongolians will continue to sell
us all the tea they can coax our merchants to purchase, and they will
continue to take their pay in silver
as heretofore. The modified treaty
authorizes our Government to limit
the Coolie business. The 100,000
Chinese now in this couniry are to
be allowed to remain here as long as
they please, but fresh arrivals are to
cease for twenty years. That's all
and that is right. There are more of
these cattle in the country now than
are good for it.”
Ex-Governor Hesdiricks made a
speech at a recent gathering in San
Franciséo in response to a sentiment
—*Our Country.” He pictured a
a jovrney from Boston’to San Francisco by-rail and said:
“Seven days and seven nights will
pass as the train flies onward before we hear the ceaseless murmur
of the Pacific. Such a journey from
Paris coastward would carry us beyond Europe and far into Asia. The
line of our travel marks and measures
the great extent-of our country, The
same flag remains over us. We
start from the landing place of the
Mayflower, and will stop alongside
the great steamers that are in our
trade with China and Japan. All
the way our heazts are cheered with
the music of active industry; end
towns and cities are our mile ts.
As we pass New York and Chicago,
we take off our hats in recognition of
the indomitable pd successful enterprise. -All the way in every
employment and pursuit, health,
energy and courage compel sucsess,
* and the numerous trains we meet
carrying our products to their, markets answer the inquiry why. the
balance of the trade with foreign .
countries has been so largely in our’
favor. On the Seago of the mountains, as we u the distant
plains toward the the ‘Atlantic and toward the Pacific, the spirit of our
country is upon” us and assures us
that in every element of wealth and
greatness we are to lead all the nations, if we but dwell to ether in
and harmony. San Francisco
is the New_York. of.the Pacific coast.
It'commands the commerce of the
East and the trade of the Pacific
Slope with its gold and its silver and
its produtts of the soil. We will go
out upon the Bay as far as the Gold.
en Gate; the great entry to our country from the Pacific. It can be
securely defended, and the defenses
already completed are probably impregnable, ”

THE CHINESE MUST GO.
v
* The Chinese Immigration Bill
passed the House Thursday afternoon by a vote of 77 to 65. There
were noamendments ‘tacked on,
but it went through as it came from
the Senate. It hardly seems possible that President Arthur will make
the mistake to attempt its veto
Should he do so we have faith thatthe
Senate will have the sense to pass it
over his head and “save the Pacific
Coast to the Republican party.
ae a ue Gites:
WaAtTrTERSON describes the President as ‘‘a handsome young fellow,
who is not afraid toserve seven kinds
of wine for dinner, drinks his full
and throw his empty glass in the face
of temperance movements.” Yes, and
the picture of Mrs. Hayes looks
down upon this performance with
horror, *

William Hendricks, aged _ 17,
while hunting on the 22d with James
Clark, a neighbor and friend, in
Shoe String Valley, Douglas county,
Oregon, was mistaken by his com.
panion for a deer and shot. through

Royal B. Conant, when Cashierelect of the National Bank in Boston, embezzled $70,000 and was sentenced to Dedham Jail for seven

few rods from home, when his
screams attracted the attention of
the inmates, who rushed out, their
presence scaring the animal away.
Both eyes were torn out, the scalp
torn off and the skull fractured in
three places. The boy lingered in
intense’agony for twelve hours.
A reign of terror exists at Laramie
City, Wy. T. Incendiaries have
been at work for four night past,
and fires occurred every night, some
of them very costly._No distinctionhas been made as to the class of
property—railroad buildings, hotels
and dwelling-houses suffering alike.
Vigilantes have been. patroling the
streets for three nights, and ran in
about twenty strangers; but the
fires would start up on all sides, and
the prisoners were released. The
terror is great, because the people
do'not know what to_expect next,
from the reason that they don’t know
whom tosuspect. There will be a
nectie party if the offenders are
peaght.
—Several mites of Edison’s “electric .
railway at Menlo Park aré now completed, and a few days ago the
pupils of Professor Sloan’s school at
Bergen“Point; N. J., about thirty in
number, were carried over the road
by electricity at the rate of over
twenty miles per ‘hour. Edison’s
track is like that of an ordinary
railroad, involving curves and grades,
one being over thirty feet to the
mile, with the various obstacles of
ravines, streams and rocks, The car
resembles our modern horse-car, The
electricity ts communicated from
wires, one connecting with each track.
The tracks are -insulated by covering the ends of the ties with a nonconducted compound, The wheels
take up electricity from the track
communicate with a dynamo-electric
machine-gearing in the locomotive.
Thus is rom to the traina noiseless,
rapid, pleasant motion, unattended
with smoke, cinders and clatter.
As Bad as the Worst,
The Grass Valley Union of yesterday says: From all accounts the
Earp party is fully as bad, if not
worse, than the cow-boys with whom
they areata deadly feud. This is
the opinion held by many worthy
citizens of Tombstone, as we learn
from a gentleman who recently spent
some time at Tombstone, cnt om
what we could learn, and his own
observations, concluded that they

4 [Sacramento Bee.]' :
Legendary history tells us that
Achilles was yore only in the
heel. Blaine’s enemies have been
‘trying for many a year to find his
vulnerable spot, but so far without
avail. They think they have him
now, but the wounds which they
have inflicted prove so far to have
been mere. skin scratches.
A DEPRESSING DAMPER.
(8. F. Hotel Gazette.)
The reason why San Francisco editors are not received among the best,
is simply this: ith the ‘exception
of the society editors of our daily
journals, most of whom are. ladies
and of course ornaments to the profession, the antecedentsof many members—are -such -as-to require: from
their entertainers, in good ‘society,
a constant watch over the silver
ware, which is a grievous drawback
and a depressing damper on ‘‘the festivities of the occasion.”
A Railroad Train Attached.
The Chico Record of Wednesday
says: The good work of compelling
the Central Pacific: Railroad Company to pay its taxes has begun.
The first action in the matter was
taken this morning inChico.__As}
soon as the southern-bound freight
train, in charge of Conductor Witham, stopped at the depot it was
boarded by Deputy Sheriff E. A.
Patten, who placed an attachment
upon the engine and cars and took
entire possession of the train. The
attachment was made in consequence
of an action brought by Butte county
against the railroad company for the
non-payment of nearly fifteen
thousand dollars taxes due the
county for 1881 and 1882.. The engine, in charge of Mr. Patten, was
placed on the side track, and the
cars. left on the main track. -General H. B. Davidson, the railroad
company’s agent at Chico, telegraphed the state of affairs to the
railroad officials at Sacramento, who
gave him instructions to give bond
for them in any amount required,
and to allow the train to proceed.
The bond was fixed at $25,000,
which was soon given, and the train
which was delayed about one, hour
was allowed to leave.
Heard From.
A telegram from Sacramento says?
‘Last August, R. Knight, agent here
forthe branch house of Louis Sloss
& Company, suddenly and mysteriously disappeared. He was to go to
Elko on business, but was from that
Foint lost, and constant search for
him proved unavailing. There were
no financial reasons for his disappearance, but he was known to be a sufferer from neuralgia and nasal polyphus. To-day he was heard from in
Melbourne, Australia. After reaching Elko he has no realization: of
what become of him until he came
to his wits again in mid-ocean, on a
ship bound for Australia, he having
taken passage at New York. He had
had some losses in private speculations, but nothing to justify his flee.
ing. He says he remembers being
very despondent at. Elko. He went
under medical treatment at Melbourne, and is advised to go to EngjJand-and-submit-to a surgical oper-}
ation. He says he will return from
there to hishome, His family is
here and has been greatly distressed
by his absence.”
