eA ‘heavy over their heads. 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, ” San Se a uae aE Teal 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, * @ffice Room rom For Rent.

The people of British Columbia want a Sunday law. The Citrus Fair is in full blast’ at Riverside, Los Angeles, The first case at Gilroy under the Sunday law resulted in a conviction, Fifteen cases of smallpox and seven deaths occurred at Chicago on the 22d, A Sunday law violator pleaded guilty at San Francisco and was fined $5. Senator Jones says there is no danger that Arthur will veto the Chinese bill. Judge Blatchford has been confirmed as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. The President has formerly disapproved of Cadet Whittaker’s sentence, and ordered his dismissal from arrest. town has been held to answer at “i Angeles on.a charge of cruelly beating seamen. President Arthur gave a complimentary dinner to General~Grant and Mrs. Grant at Washington on the night of the 22d. Covers were laid for thirty-six. 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 the body. He died shortly afterward, Royal B. Conant, when Cashierelect of the National Bank in Boston, embezzled $70,000 and was sentenced to Dedham Jail for seven years. On the ground that his health has been undermined by two years’ confinement, President Arthur has pardoned him. Phillip Van Renssalaer, a member of the old Knickerbocker family of thatname, was found dead in his bed at the Brunswick Hotel, New York, on the night of the 22d with a bullet hole in his brain. Whether it was an accident or a case of suicide is not known. Gussie Grayes, a six-year-old child, step-son of W. J. Magson, living six miles from Kalama, Oregon, was terribly mangled by a cougar Tuesday afternoon, from the effects of which he died Wednesday morning. The little fellow was a 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 the men.

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.” A Cough Cold or Sore Throat should be stopped.
