; 4 4 THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT. NEVADA CITY, CAL. NevaiaConty Oficial Pres. BROWN & CALKINS, Proprietors. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29. BEECHER’S LAST BLUNDER. Henry Ward Beecher, the notorious destroyer of female virtue and the avowed enem .of the laboring classes of America is out with another whoop in the interests of the Chi__nese Six Companies. -He wants our country’s gates thrown wide open to the Chinese’slaves who have been pouring in here, unrestricted, for years past, and have on the Pacific coast driven the white toiler to the wall. Says Mr. Beecher : ‘‘The want of the country is a class of men to do the common and vulgar work. We are hungry for them; The work is left for the broken down and under class, and here we have a class of men coming to us ready and wil to do it, and we shut the golden gate of hope and promise in ‘their faces.” It is not the “common and vulgar work” alone that the hordes of China come to perform, neither is there any power on earth that can restrict them to it so long as they are free to come} here when they please. They under. mine the empfoyer as well as the employe, the master as well as the serv. ant. Beecher knows nothing about the Chinese as-a race, and that’s what’s the matter with him. Danger of Snow-slides. Much anxiety is manifested by the people in the snow bound districts lest the recent heavy storm has caused much damage throughout the county by snow-slides. It will be a surprise to many if the Savage Company has not suffered to some extent. Fortunately, the man who had charge of the company’s property this winter, came down to Forest City a day or two before the storm set in, and thus escaped any possible danger. The Keystone mine is also situated ina canyon a few miles further up the ridge, where slides are of frequent occurrence. A number of years ago this company hada ten-stamp will carried away, and several employes lost their lives at the time. At a later date the large boarding house and office were swept. away in the same’manner. The mine being deserted no one was injured. A large iron safe that was in the office at the time of the slide, lies to-day at the bottom of the canyon, a distance of nearly ha'f a mile “from the mine. The company’s present twenty-stamp mill and other buildings-are situatedas-to be considered free from-alt danger of an.avalanche, but as in the case of the Sierra Buttes company, there is no certainty here among the Sierras, for the disastrous slides are liable to come at any moment, and. come without warning. At the Black Jack, in Jim Crow canyon, the tenstamp mill was erected at the bottom _of a steep hill over a thousand feet high, and if the building is not demolished ere this we are much mis_ taken, Owing to the hard crast +hat had formed previous to the late storm, this is considered an unusually severe tine for snow-slides. Having no communication, it has been im~ possible to learn whether~any ~dam-=+ age has resulted to these mines or not, and we can only hope to be able in ashort time to chronicle in the negative.—Forest’ City (Sierra county) Tribune. A Terrible Powder Explosion. The Vulcan Powder works at Stege Station, Contra Costa county, caught fire at 10 o’clock Monday morning and a fearful explosion occurred. The Bulletin’s report says ten men were killed. Two large buildings were entirely destroyed. Ina twostory building, known as the main building, in which the operation of granulating was conducted, the mixing was carried on and the engines were’ located. The other bui'ding _wasthe dress room. This was a’ large frame structure about 60x50 _feet and forty feet high. An important addition was building to the dry room ‘at the time of the tragic accident. The two buildings were separated and some distance apart, but a wooden elevator ran from the main building to the building used for drying purposes, ey Brrncarp and Lowery, who have been prospecting about seven miles from Shasta; near Centerville, struck & ledge last week and took out $1,500 ~ ‘worth of gold on Friday and $1,000 on Saturday. A few days since a miner near Whiskytown took out $1,500 worth in two pans of dirt, ‘ Tr we ‘were to fallow just as well have been born dumb, ! > absurd rule, never to speak until’ we have something to say, many of us might ' OUR EXCHANGES, Malf Minute Interviews With the Chiefs of the Sanctum. ANYTHING FOR A CHANGE. {Bodie Free Press.] The Sacramento papers have. quit cursing the mining industry and are now busily engaged in jawing about their circulation. The reading public like it much better. A COMMON CRIME. {Stockton Herald.] The San Jose Mercury thinks it is ‘a queer sort of justice” which sends to prison, for perjury, the witnesses whose falee-swearing. acquitted the younger Kalloch of the murder of Charles de Young. Itis apparently ‘“quéer,” but only when contrasted with the outrageous acquittal of the murderer. They deserve all the punishment they get, and society demands it as a warning to other perjurers. Perjury ‘is altogether too common a crime. : CHANGE OF SENTIMENT, {S. F.-Chronicle.} The old-time loyalty for the English royal family seems well-nigh Ting . dead. The Parliaments of twenty 8 ago used to object strongly to payingthe heavy debts of the Prince of Wales,~but the objection came from Liberals, aad was not put in an offensvie form. Last week, when a marriage oie Sead for, three prominent members ~of—the. Government clapped on their fia: and walked out of the House to avoid voting for a proposition which they frankly admitted they would have prevented had they the power. SHOULD BE WIPED CUT. e {S. F. Exchange.] The Chronicle is again after Kalloch’s Temple, on the ground that its managers have done nothing to make the place safe in the case of fire and panic. If the Grand Jury or the Supervisors would order it pulled down we should feel as if the town were relieved of an annoying blister. From what we know about Christianity, we feel positive that the Holy Ghost never came within ten blocks of that pestilential structure. It has bred humbug, heart-burnings, hard times ‘and murder. It has been a noisome cave from which have issued forth discord, rancors, impiety, blasphemy and filth. It has held Kalloch during his mock .sufferings from De: Young’s bullet, and now, that its master is dead politically,’ socially and morally, that mischievous pill should be razed to the ground and its bricks flung into the bay, or, better still, used in repairing the sewers of San Francisco. -_—__—__6 26 — The Coolie Influx Continues. The ‘steamship City of Tokio, which arrived Sunday from Hongkong,. brought 1070 Chinese laborers, All_day—long —express-wagonsran from the wharf, each carrying from six to ten passengers, together with tLeir foul and grotesque luggage. In the cuurse of a few hours.Chinatown received an accession of one thonsand and seventy persons. Ten times that number would have made no perceptible increase in the Asiatic quarter. Its absorbing capacity is unlimited. The newcomers were set down at the various points of reception, and together with! their effects disappeared hike rats in the subterranean dens and overcrowded quarters above ground, From these wretched precincts, after beingspeed{ due time be slipped for general dep redations on American labor. Their wages will go to China, and during their stay in this country a thousand families of the Caucasian race will be kept away from our coast, or. kept in poverty by the competition of the slave laborers, The Chinese “passengers” arriving in this country are mere slaves of the corporations which bring them— Massachusetts to the contrary, notwithstanding. The arrivals by the Tokio make about ten thousand Chinamen since January Ist, 1882,—Alta. A Walk-over Predicted. (Grass Valley Union.] The Nevada Transcript, San Juan Times and Truckee Republican each endorse the suggestion of the Forest City Tribune that Hiram W. Wallis, of Forest City, the -Superintendant of the celebrated Bald Mountain mine, be nominated by the Republican party as the joint Senator for Sierra and Nevada counties, Wallis will prebably have a walkover as far asthe nomination is concerned, THE House Committee: on currency has resolved to report a bill in favor of the suspension of silver coinage and the issue’ of silver certificates. This policy is in the interests of the, banking ring, which would be only too glad to contract the currency and thus enable them fo: chnch the debtor class. The eountry will not sustain any such . legislation. ~ r ily-instructed for duty, they-will--iu-. With such a hearty send off Mr. . THE LATEST NEWS. Frederich Christech ‘committed suicide, at Petaluma on Sunday. ‘ Antonio Marcacei has been fined at Napa for selling liquor to minors. Alexander H. Stephens still insists upon retiring from public life. Longfellow’s funeral on Sunday was attended by many famous literary persons. Miss Phoebe Cousins wants to be one of the:five Commissioners to reorganize Utah. Haverly’s reported failure is strenuously denied, but it is generally believed by theatrical men. The jury in the Cripe bigamy case at Stockton brought in a verdict of met gute. Mr. Van Dyke was killed at Niles, Alameda county, on Saturday, by a windmill falling upon him. A life-boat rescuing a shipwrecked and two crews of nineteen_persons were druwne'l, near Austin, Nevada; Charles* Currelly was killed and Austin ‘Parrott seriously injured. One Peel, civil engineer of the Tombstone Mill and Mining Company, was murdered at Charleston, Arizona, by two masked men on Saturday, The star-route service in the Pa-citic States and Territories cost—an. 165. Contracts for the same service ‘have now been made for $1,125,149. Re Mr. Pratt, of the Central Park Baptist Church, New York, preached Seotee. 9 theater-going, in which he quoted\another sermon n as follows: ‘‘Women arenot allowed on the stayein China. G nd us, then, some Chinese missionaries, that we may become converted.” Ses What He is Like. A Record-Union interviewer thus sums .up his impressions of Oscar Wilde: He is scholarly, studiedly polite, agentleman, shrewd, fearless, observant, self-possessed and of poetic temperament. He has been considerably misrepresented and unduly ridiculed. He is apparently sincere and earnest, He is, however, ludicrously odd tothe American eye in personal appearance }‘is eccentric (or affected).in this regard, and lacks the manifestations of manliness in his countenance, and frequently in his manner. ~~ eo Lorn Justice Cctron, anEnglish Judge held in high respect, ~ has lately pointed out that the committing of mere boys for trial at the assizes with all the pharaphenalia of grand jury, judge, jury, etc., is an absurdity, and that they ought to receive instead a sound birching by magistrate’s order (as all boys of the higher class do at a public schools), and then be discharged. The Home Secretary is to introduce a bill to facilitate this mode of punishment.-—It-is contended that a boy who has once been in jail carries the stigma through life, and too often becomes a hardened tiscreant, while a fine is useless, as he cannot pay one. : ‘ SEE our Easter cards, beautiful designs, for sale by Mrs. Lester & Crawford. 28-tf HOTEL ARRIVALS. —— Oe .
