hasbeen losing since.some of us “it not behoove Nevada, Sierra, Placathe case 2 San Francisco will be : with them first, last and all the time. Let a Miner's State Convenia THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT. NEVADA UITY, CAL, Established in 1860, ~~ BROWN & CALKINS, Proprietors, Heraia Cnty Oficial Pres FRIDAY. MAY 5. SEI LTT CHINESE LABOR. ‘*1f a Superintendent who has his own way about employing Chinese labor works the lead properiy, he can make some fat perquisites,” said a well-known mining man yesterday. “It is generally the case,” he continued, ‘‘that the Chinese pay him a certain percentage of their earnings as a royalty on their situations. I have known Superintendents of hydraulic mines to make as high as $758 month by this trick, butthey average about haltjas much,” Thank our stare, there are but few mine managers in the county who will work the Mongolians even on _ those terms. This should be the first county in the State to get out of the clutches of the Asiatichordes. At Blue Tent and over in Little York township the plague prevails tothe greatestextent, but elsewhere things have already been setin pretty good order for a clean sweep. All the people have got to do is to make up their collective mind that they or the Chinese must vamose, They™have a few . sneaks of their own color. in the camp who will try to dissnade them from attaining the reform, but the only way to argue with these scalla. wags who would sell their souls for a short bit is to sit mght down oa and hold them in place. Nevada county has a total population of twenty-two thousand, © of which twenty-five hundred are adult Chinese of the male gender. The Chinese minority are keeping al the others poor. They are living on ten cents apiece a day, while it costs the most humble white citizen seven times ten cents if he lives hke-w his] man being. They are undermining white producers and laborers whereever you turn, or rather they were till a few months ago when the ball of reform was set to rolling. That ball has not yet rolled —far ‘enough, 1t must be given another start, -and a good one, if we want it to crush out the accursed orienta! parasites that are pulling us down two steps for every one we go up. _It certainly cannot be that nineteen and a half thousand of white men and women aud children are going to aquat them down like lambkins in a cyclone and let the destroying element gradually regain the ground it went to work, That anti-Chinese county convention which we' spoke about the other day would furnish a big lot of nails and boards for the cotfin of servile labor here. Of course it could not taste or even smell of politics, or else it would get qualmish in the region of the stomach and be unable to do the work it set out to. No man should go into it with the idea that it would be astepping stone to an office of any_kind. __Republican—and—_Demoorat, Independent and Anti-Mbnopolist, or any other man, should meet there on but one footing and with but one object in view: The total suppression, by lawful means, of traffic with or employment of the Chinese, We guess that wouldcover the ground pretty completely. Talk this matter over, in your respective communities, and_let us—see what will come of it before long. a ) aE NOT, WHY NOT ? A handful of blatant agitators and a8 many more well-meaning but imisguided citizens from five or six of the valley counties are holding a convention in.Sacramento this week for the purpose of manufacturing public sentiment against ‘‘s'ickens.” The Supervisors of the counties represented are taking an official han.i in the agitation, and doing everything that lies in their power to imPress upon the State at large the total goolness of their cause and the teetotil badness of the miners’. In not the Boards of Supervisors of the’ counties where there are gold mines also have a whack at public sentiments? there any yood reason Ww, y they should not take some empBatic measures for the betterment of the feeling towards _ the ‘industry which is their constituency’s chief provider of bread and butter ?

TINSEL GLORY: [Philadelphia Chron.-Herald (Dem.)} The Democrats have been winning some elestions in the West. That's a trick the Democratic party has. It always wins the elections that don’t count much, while when there is'a big slice of cake in view the other fellows walk away with it. BEGGING FOR CRUMBS. (Los Angeles Times:) There has been a most astoni-hing let down in the demands and expectations of the Democracy within a few days. When the news of the veto was received, in high glee every one of the unterrified threw up his hat at the prospect of sweeping the State and the country under the reaction of public sentiment. But now that Republican pluck has carried a new bill through Congress, and one which will be signed, some of the exponents of Democracy begin to beg for a few crumbs of the Republican feast—some little thing, anything to help out the party, in payment for the service rendered by certain Democratic Representatives and Senators in working the bill through. It would appear that the idea of a patriotic effoitin aid of any cause is unknown to a-Democrat.He-wants his salary, and all the donations and perquisites, and then begs for some spevial gifts for the benefit of his party. he > ee It Ought to sae The San Francisco’ Daily Report says it supposes the anti-slickens convention will pass a preamble and resolutions setting forth that, ‘whereas, the industry of mining diverts capital that might otherwise be invested in land, and whereas, the investment of foreign capital in lands within our respective counties is a source of profit to our citizens, and whereas, we deprecate the investment of capital in other than our respective localities, and whereas, our respective communities are down on theindustry of mining and jealous of all other respective communities; therefore, be it resolved, that our Representatives Congress be requested to use their utmost efforts to procure as large an apportionment as possible for the improvement of the navigable streams of this State, and be it further_resolved that the money thus appropriated be apportiated pro rata between our respective counties. Also resolved that our respective county treasuries be dragged for the purpose of providing the impecunious lawyers of our respective counties with a nice, soft, easy thing and_for—the payment of such other expenses as may be necessary in our attempt ¢ destroy the mining interests of the in State. @’Connor’s Success. Tuesday’s telegram from New York says: T. P. O'Connor the member of the British Parliament who has been inthe country for several months as a representative of the Trish Land League, left by the steamer Wyoming this afternoon for Liverpool. Previous to sailing he said as to the success of his misbeen very successful, and in pecuniary results has exceeded my expectations, I have collected at my own meetings ever $50,000, and Land League.of America, have. forwaded fully $30,000 to Mr, Eagan League.

Chinamen at Blue Tent. G. V. Tidings: The Nevada TranSCRIPT opens fire on the Blue Tent Mining Company. That paper accuses said company of . employing Chinese miners instead of white men, thereby insulting the white race and preventing prosperity in the community. The Blue Tent mine canfrom white people as long as. tinued. The TRANscRIPT also intimates that violence against the mine deprecates all such talk. Blue Tent may yet achieve great fame, as being a the scene of a war of raceg, a Half Minate Interviews With the THE_LATEST NEWS. A heavy snow storm prevailed ‘Tuesday at Watertown, N. Y.
