EEE _ Two Accidents. Last Tuesday-the young son of George Grant of Omega fell down and struck against an old tin can.cutting a severe gash in his head, Johnnie, the eleven-year-old son of Thomas Simons of Wasliington, last Wednesday met with an accident of a serious nature. He was assisting to drive some pack animals loaded wit supplies from Washington to the Norway mine on Canyon Creek eight miles above the town, where his father is operating, He had with him a revolver, the hammer of which would not stand, When within a short distance of the mine he took the weapon from his pocket and forgetting about the failure of the lock to work raised the hammer. As he did soit flew back upon a cartridge which exploded, and the bullet entered the inner side of the fleshy portion of one of his legs. He was immediately taken to the mine where he still is, At last. accounte} Dr. Farley, who is the attending physician, had not succeeded in finding the ball. 4 Prompt Acquittal, The charge of malicious mischief preferred by Joseph Kitts against Mrs. Austin and her daughter of Willow Valley was on trial\in Justice Wadaworth's court from 10 o'clock Thursday morning till nearly eleven o'clock that night, C. W, Kitts prosecuting and Thos. 8, Ford defending. The following constituted the jury: C. Harrison, Wm. Walters, John Hippert, Nicholas Webber, Henry Lane, John Webber, Wm. Giffin, Jas. McOrandall, Chas, Grimes, E. 0. Tompkins and A, McNeeley. The jury acquitted on the first ballot, being out only about ten minutes, Cannot Recover.

Mulry, who six weeks ago left here for San Francisco in the hopes of recovering his health, had just undergone a surgical operation at the German Hospital and was in a precarious condition.

To Hs Excemuency, Grover Cusvetann, Presipent or tur U. S., Wasainaton, D. C.—Degak Sir: The people of the States bordering on the Pacific ocean have ever since the advent of the Democratic Administration been watching and waiting for the. passage of an act of the Congress of the United States prohibiting Chinese immigrants from landing at our ports or entering the United State; and also preventing the return of thoge Chinese laborers that leave our ports. The people of the Pacific States of this Government have been led to believe that you as the Supreme Executive of this Government and _ hjs.Imperial Majesty,the Emperor of China, had mutually agreed upon a conventional treaty absolutely prohibiting Chinese immigrants from entering the United States, or the return of any that may hereafter leave the’ United States. We have carefully read what purport: ed to be-acopy of your message to theSenate of the United States‘ issued from the Executive Mansion, March 26, 1888; together with a copy of the full text of the proposed treaty as well as that of the letter the Hon. T. F. Bayard, Secretary of State, submitted vy your Excellency to the Senate for its advice. We’ have carefully compared the same with the treaty commonly known as the Burlingame treaty-o! 1868, and that of the amended treaty of 1880. ; It seems clea: to the feople of the States bordering on the Pacific ocean that the proposed conventions: treaty so urgently recommended by the distinguished statesman, Secretary Thontas F. Bayard, is open to many objections. His letter show: he means well; but when we come to read it, with the full text of the proposed treaty accompanying the same; it seems clear to the people of these “States bordering on the Pacific” referred to in the letter of the honorable Secretary of State, that the proposed Convention he so earnestly and urgently. submits to the Senate of the Uniteu States-for its advice, if finully ratified by you and-his Imperial Mujesty, the Emperor of China, will prove to be insufficient to accomplish the object you so earnestly desire—the protection of free labor within our borders. This free labor question has been growing in importance ever since the ratification of the Burlingame treaty of 1868, In 1869 the Democratic party of this State to protect. free iabor from the baleful effects of the contract system of the Chinese Six Companies bringing to our shores not Chinese immigrants, but Chinese slaves, by a plank iv their platforms adopted at our State Convention pledged our candidates to. use all lawful means to prevent the évil of contract labor. The reault was a Democratic victory that swept over the State electing the entire ticket by an overwhelming majority. About the same time, viz: about 1870,California’s distinguished poet, F. Bret Harte, realizing the blighting effect 01 contract China cheap labor wrote and published a poem of about nine verses entitlyd ‘‘The Heathen Chinese,’’ the seventh verse of which I quote, viz: “Then Blooked up at Nye, And he gazed upon me, And he rose with asigh, _ And said, Can this bet We are ruined by Chinese cheap labor! And he went for that Heathen Chinese ” _In the year 1872, the Democratic party in National Convention sharply defined in its platform a pledge to protect the free laborer; and has again and again in every National Vonvention up tu 1884 pledged its candidates if elected to the same policy. Our good President Grover Cleveland was elected on that pledge and the people of the Pacific States feél grateful to you that you are muking an effort by treaty to fulfill that pledge, Your Excellency in submitting the proposed treaty and letter of the Hon. Secretary of Stute by message to the Senate for its advice, did also recommend that honorable body to make an order for the publication of the same, We believe it has not been the custom of former administrations to poblish treaties till after ratification. The subject of free labor is one of overshadowing importance not only in the Pacific States, but in all the States of the Union. We presume that one of the objects of the publication is that you and the Senate may be advised of the wisues of the people concerning the same before it shall be ratified. The press is supposed to reflect the advice and will of the people. If we are right in supposing that one of the objects of the publication of the full text of the proposed treaty is to be advised of the will of the people as to its final ratification or rejection, then the people of the States the Pacific coust are thankful for treaty, the Government of . to the United States, and the Government of the United States desires r prohibition, it would seem to be} call the proposed treaty an amendment to the treaty of 188). The Chinese Companies and Ah Sin would have us in their own hands. How easily they could fabricate promissory notes or other evidence of debt. The Custom House officers would have to accept the same and issue return certificates to each and all that departed from our ports. The same trouble would be continued of fradulent return of others bearing certiticates so issued, The curiosity traveling clause is still worse. The whole Chinese race could demand and obtain entrance at our ports under that clause, It is. doubtless to this clause in the treatv of 1880 might be ‘attributed-the injuries received by Chinese Wanderers through our sparsely setiled territories. Well mizht our Government disclaim any and all legal liabiiity. Che truth is that the Chinese were inultreated and injured by foreigners of other nationalities, and not by vitizens. of the United States. But the transit clause, which does not appear in the treaty of 1880, and was only tolerated by executive courtesy in one case, is the worst clause of all. The whele Chinese race might enter onr ports under that clause, and having once entered could stay as long as they pleased. Ah Sin having entered the port, we will suppose at San Francisco city, starts on his‘‘transit,”’ and arriving at Oakland, S .cramento City or Colfax, stops. Heis asked by some person who happens to know he was on ths transit, ‘Ah Sin, why you stop here?” Ah Sin would reply in the very common phrase ‘‘I’se changed my mind.” They would only be premiuma ‘or frauds; and Ah Sin and the Chinese Six Companies would ply their game, The question of free labor is above all party issues in these States. Treaties are generally considered administration measures and ina great measure very properly so; but in this case your Excellency has been very consi‘lerate , in -virtually submitting the proposed convention to the people, and particularly to the p-ople of he States bordering on the Pacific, or their advice as well as that of the Senate of the United States; and we know that we voice the advice of the people of these States when we say we want the proposed treaty with these exceptional clauses stricken hevefrom. I liave the honor to be your Excellency’s humble servant, Joun I, CALDWELL, The Scott's Flat Raid. ¢fhe three Chinamen arrested at four o’clock Thursday morning at Scott's Flat by spy Sternes and his companions who unlawfully smashed in the door of the Mongols’ cabin in order to get at them, had not been working in the Sargent & Jacobs ground as was reported. They have been engaged in ground-sluicing and cleaning out an old flume in what is known as the American claim, and which is situated about three hundred yards above the former. When the Peter Hardt case was begun several years ago” against the miners dumping tailings into Bear river an injunctien was served on George F, Jacobs who was working the ground under a lease but was in no way concerned in it as an owner. Senator Sargent upon hearing of the -aervice‘immediately wrote to thelessee whoatill has the letter in his possession notifying him tbat he must suspend all operations without delay, as the decree of the court n.ust not be set at defiance under any circumstances, Mr, Sargent was in return notied that his instructions would be implicitly obeyed, and since that time Geo. F, Jacobs has not had anything to do with the clam as lessee or-superintendent, He states, moreover, that to his positive knowledge no one has hydraulicked there. It isa a fact, however, that no injunction has ever been served on the owners of the property. The Jacobs who is the partuer in it is a cousin to the Jacobs of this city known as George F., and he lives in aw Eastern State,To be Buried Tomorrow, The funeral of Joseph Clark who died Thursday evening will take place at two o’clock tomorrow from the Congregational Church, It will be under the auspices of Oustomah Lodge, No. 16,1. 0, O.

May of Grasse Valley, Mrs. Wun. Moore of the same town playing the accompaniment. The fair vocalist demonstrated by her performance that she had lost none of the charms of voice and execution that have made her so popular in music-loving circles . After this song came the iecture, and itis safe to say that 'a better one has not been heard in this county. The Doctor is not only adeep thinker and magnetic speaker, but he posesses those fine powers of discrimination which enable him to presen: his views in the most attractive as well as the most telling shape. He was listened to with the keenest attention, and was frequently applauded for the trite truths he told and themanner in wiich he told them. Miss Ida Maltman sang “The Last Rose of Summer,’ and for an encore gave “Annie Laurie.”* It was genérally remarked that the young lady never before sang so well. She. surprised even her warmest admirers. The concluding number was the old familiar but ever welcome ballad, “Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming.”’ It was beautifully sung by Miss Emma Schemer, Mrs. M. B. B. Potter, W. P. Sowden and. John Werry. Mrs. F. G. Beatty was accompanist for Miss Maltman and the quartette. Herewith is given a br.ef summary of THE LECTURE. Every man who desires to succeed must be a student of his times. We cannot farm, or trade, or labor as our fathers did and succeed. The railroad, the telegraph, the telephone have intro duced new methods, and he who would succeed must avail himself of all modérn helps. We in California vannot farm as they farm east of the Rocky mountains and prosper—nor in one portion of this State as we might in another, The varieties of climate and soil and accessibility to market must all be-considered. The schools must imitate the secular callings and modily their courses and methods of study and instruction, if they would fully meet existing demands. They are to equip children for the business of California and for citizenship in the United States, or fall short of their duty. We should all be students in a wider sense of the present and future of our State and coast, of the drift and prospeciive outcome of our national life. These dre the reasons why this subject has been selected for present discussion. I prepose to treat it. under three aspects—as a local, a natidnal and a race question, To begin with this coast: If anyone could transport himeelf backward thirty-five or forty years, and into the average eastern community where the news of thediscovery of gold on this coast firat began pervading it, he would discover t the effecta of the news upon the different clusses was as various as their dispositions, The quiet, studious boy, devoted io his parénts, to his church, to hia neighborhood or perhaps held by a still dearer tio, scarce felt a ripple of excitement. His brother, less domestic and more self reliant and daring, was set on fire by the news and neither rested nor permitted others to rest until reluctant consent was given that home ties should be sundered and the risk of a trip to the new El Dorado should be adventured. Hence our first settlers were self reliant, daring, enterprising and bright, but not especially spiritual or domestic. They intended to gain the present world—few of them thought muchy of the next. In time their wives or sweethearts followed, or new attachments were formed in the new land, children were born in the image of their parents, and so @ new order of society arose. And this is the society we are endeavoring to mould. The influence of the Puritan immigration to New England, and of the Cavalier immigration to the South has been perpetuated in the respective sections to the present generation. The influence of the particular classes who came here first will survive for centuries. Society here has been modified still further by the industries of the State. The first settlers intended to get in, but not by slow steps. The hamdrnm methods and the slow accretions of the east could not satisfy. They must gain rapidly and ona large scale. They entered ‘themines, underwent great hardships, took great hazards and many pucceeded, If others failed it was but torenew the straggle again and again until success came, or. courage and strength failed and they fell by the way. The survivors are the capitalists and men of mark in Culifornia today, Sacramento valley, the method wae similar. ' Large areas were seeded in wheat. If the skies gave plenteous showers they were lifted into competence; if drouth followed, they ,were plunged into bankruptcy. risks of the miner were carried into tbat industry which elsewhere is so. to the sowing—opulence or bankrupt oy: Fe ese later day course—it was a con. “ns and positively ness of our climate.

Sober business methods must supplant hazardous speculations, patient industry and slow accretions must satisfy the ambitions of the young. Education and religion must teach that something better than masoul And all of these must combine to strengthen the domestic bonds. The speaker next considered “Ou: Times’”’ under the national aspect and discussed the exaggerated notions o liberty existing among youth and _ toreign population, and the need of hold ing them under more stringent repression ; the industrial changes which are taking place by tl.e intr duction of labor-saving machinery, the tendency of these changes to release men from the hord drudgery of toil, and give more leisure ‘to the laboring classes, and the need of rational and spiritua occupation for the mind and heart; the wonderful progress in wealth through which the United States now lead the van among the nations, the dangers arising from the same, and the safeguards demanded by the times; the tendency of wealth to center in few hands, the menace of such aggregations to legislation and to labor, the restiveness of the laborer under the unequal distribution, and the urgent demand upon. capital if it would retain its acknowledged rightr to give greater attention to the welfare of the producer. The addrvss concluded with an allusion to the Anglo-Saxon race to which we belong; to its rapid strides in territorial agyrandizement; its in¢rease of population and power; to the magnificent geographical position of the United States and of the people of this coast on theewestern verge toward which the flow of population bar been setting for three thousand years. He pointed out the duty of the pulpit and the platform and the teacher’s desk especially to improve the great opportunity and hold out to the nationof the Orient across the sea the torch of education, of religion, of liberty and of civilization, which we hold in sacred and solemn trust for the nations of the world.

EEE _ Two Accidents. Last Tuesday-the young son of George Grant of Omega fell down and struck against an old tin can.cutting a severe gash in his head, Johnnie, the eleven-year-old son of Thomas Simons of Wasliington, last Wednesday met with an accident of a serious nature. He was assisting to drive some pack animals loaded wit supplies from Washington to the Norway mine on Canyon Creek eight miles above the town, where his father is operating, He had with him a revolver, the hammer of which would not stand, When within a short distance of the mine he took the weapon from his pocket and forgetting about the failure of the lock to work raised the hammer. As he did soit flew back upon a cartridge which exploded, and the bullet entered the inner side of the fleshy portion of one of his legs. He was immediately taken to the mine where he still is, At last. accounte} Dr. Farley, who is the attending physician, had not succeeded in finding the ball. 4 Prompt Acquittal, The charge of malicious mischief preferred by Joseph Kitts against Mrs. Austin and her daughter of Willow Valley was on trial\in Justice Wadaworth's court from 10 o'clock Thursday morning till nearly eleven o'clock that night, C.

To Hs Excemuency, Grover Cusvetann, Presipent or tur U. S., Wasainaton, D. C.—Degak Sir: The people of the States bordering on the Pacific ocean have ever since the advent of the Democratic Administration been watching and waiting for the. passage of an act of the Congress of the United States prohibiting Chinese immigrants from landing at our ports or entering the United State; and also preventing the return of thoge Chinese laborers that leave our ports. The people of the Pacific States of this Government have been led to believe that you as the Supreme Executive of this Government and _ hjs..Imperial Majesty,the Emperor of China, had mutually agreed upon a conventional treaty absolutely prohibiting Chinese immigrants from entering the United States, or the return of any that may hereafter leave the’ United States. We have carefully read what purport: ed to be-acopy of your message to theSenate of the United States‘ issued from the Executive Mansion, March 26, 1888; together with a copy of the full text of the proposed treaty as well as that of the letter the Hon. T. F. Bayard, Secretary of State, submitted vy your Excellency to the Senate for its advice. We’ have carefully compared the same with the treaty commonly known as the Burlingame treaty-o! 1868, and that of the amended treaty of 1880. ; It seems clea: to the feople of the States bordering on the Pacific ocean that the proposed conventions: treaty so urgently recommended by the distinguished statesman, Secretary Thontas F. Bayard, is open to many objections. His letter show: he means well; but when we come to read it, with the full text of the proposed treaty accompanying the same; it seems clear to the people of these “States bordering on the Pacific” referred to in the letter of the honorable Secretary of State, that the proposed Convention he so earnestly and urgently. submits to the Senate of the Uniteu States-for its advice, if finully ratified by you and-his Imperial Mujesty, the Emperor of China, will prove to be insufficient to accomplish the object you so earnestly desire—the protection of free labor within our borders. This free labor question has been growing in importance ever since the ratification of the Burlingame treaty of 1868, In 1869 the Democratic party of this State to protect. free iabor from the baleful effects of the contract system of the Chinese Six Companies bringing to our shores not Chinese immigrants, but Chinese slaves, by a plank iv their platforms adopted at our State Convention pledged our candidates to. use all lawful means to prevent the évil of contract labor. The reault was a Democratic victory that swept over the State electing the entire ticket by an overwhelming majority. About the same time, viz: about 1870,California’s distinguished poet, F. Bret Harte, realizing the blighting effect 01 contract China cheap labor wrote and published a poem of about nine verses entitlyd ‘‘The Heathen Chinese,’’ the seventh verse of which I quote, viz: “Then Blooked up at Nye, And he gazed upon me, And he rose with asigh, _ And said, Can this bet We are ruined by Chinese cheap labor! And he went for that Heathen Chinese ” _In the year 1872, the Democratic party in National Convention sharply defined in its platform a pledge to protect the free laborer; and has again and again in every National Vonvention up tu 1884 pledged its candidates if elected to the same policy. Our good President Grover Cleveland was elected on that pledge and the people of the Pacific States feél grateful to you that you are muking an effort by treaty to fulfill that pledge, Your Excellency in submitting the proposed treaty and letter of the Hon. Secretary of Stute by message to the Senate for its advice, did also recommend that honorable body to make an order for the publication of the same, We believe it has not been the custom of former administrations to poblish treaties till after ratification. The subject of free labor is one of overshadowing importance not only in the Pacific States, but in all the States of the Union. We presume that one of the objects of the publication is that you and the Senate may be advised of the wisues of the people concerning the same before it shall be ratified. The press is supposed to reflect the advice and will of the people. If we are right in supposing that one of the objects of the publication of the full text of the proposed treaty is to be advised of the will of the people as to its final ratification or rejection, then the people of the States the Pacific coust are thankful for treaty, the Government of . to the United States, and the Government of the United States desires r prohibition, it would seem to be} call the proposed treaty an amendment to the treaty of 188). The Chinese Companies and Ah Sin would have us in their own hands. How easily they could fabricate promissory notes or other evidence of debt. The Custom House officers would have to accept the same and issue return certificates to each and all that departed from our ports. The same trouble would be continued of fradulent return of others bearing certiticates so issued, The curiosity traveling clause is still worse. The whole Chinese race could demand and obtain entrance at our ports under that clause, It is. doubtless to this clause in the treatv of 1880 might be ‘attributed-the injuries received by Chinese Wanderers through our sparsely setiled territories. Well mizht our Government disclaim any and all legal liabiiity. Che truth is that the Chinese were inultreated and injured by foreigners of other nationalities, and not by vitizens. of the United States. But the transit clause, which does not appear in the treaty of 1880, and was only tolerated by executive courtesy in one case, is the worst clause of all. The whele Chinese race might enter onr ports under that clause, and having once entered could stay as long as they pleased. Ah Sin having entered the port, we will suppose at San Francisco city, starts on his‘‘transit,”’ and arriving at Oakland, S .cramento City or Colfax, stops. Heis asked by some person who happens to know he was on ths transit, ‘Ah Sin, why you stop here?” Ah Sin would reply in the very common phrase ‘‘I’se changed my mind.” They would only be premiuma ‘or frauds; and Ah Sin and the Chinese Six Companies would ply their game, The question of free labor is above all party issues in these States. Treaties are generally considered administration measures and ina great measure very properly so; but in this case your Excellency has been very consi‘lerate , in -virtually submitting the proposed convention to the people, and particularly to the p-ople of he States bordering on the Pacific, or their advice as well as that of the Senate of the United States; and we know that we voice the advice of the people of these States when we say we want the proposed treaty with these exceptional clauses stricken hevefrom. I liave the honor to be your Excellency’s humble servant, Joun I, CALDWELL, The Scott's Flat Raid. ¢fhe three Chinamen arrested at four o’clock Thursday morning at Scott's Flat by spy Sternes and his companions who unlawfully smashed in the door of the Mongols’ cabin in order to get at them, had not been working in the Sargent & Jacobs ground as was reported. They have been engaged in ground-sluicing and cleaning out an old flume in what is known as the American claim, and which is situated about three hundred yards above the former. When the Peter Hardt case was begun several years ago” against the miners dumping tailings into Bear river an injunctien was served on George F, Jacobs who was working the ground under a lease but was in no way concerned in it as an owner. Senator Sargent upon hearing of the -aervice‘immediately wrote to thelessee whoatill has the letter in his possession notifying him tbat he must suspend all operations without delay, as the decree of the court n.ust not be set at defiance under any circumstances, Mr, Sargent was in return notied that his instructions would be implicitly obeyed, and since that time Geo. F, Jacobs has not had anything to do with the clam as lessee or-superintendent, He states, moreover, that to his positive knowledge no one has hydraulicked there. It isa a fact, however, that no injunction has ever been served on the owners of the property.

May of Grasse Valley, Mrs. Wun. Moore of the same town playing the accompaniment. The fair vocalist demonstrated by her performance that she had lost none of the charms of voice and execution that have made her so popular in music-loving circles . After this song came the iecture, and itis safe to say that 'a better one has not been heard in this county. The Doctor is not only adeep thinker and magnetic speaker, but he posesses those fine powers of discrimination which enable him to presen: his views in the most attractive as well as the most telling shape. He was listened to with the keenest attention, and was frequently applauded for the trite truths he told and themanner in wiich he told them. Miss Ida Maltman sang “The Last Rose of Summer,’ and for an encore gave “Annie Laurie.”* It was genérally remarked that the young lady never before sang so well. She. surprised even her warmest admirers. The concluding number was the old familiar but ever welcome ballad, “Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming.”’ It was beautifully sung by Miss Emma Schemer, Mrs. M. B. B. Potter, W. P. Sowden and. John Werry. Mrs. F. G. Beatty was accompanist for Miss Maltman and the quartette. Herewith is given a br.ef summary of THE LECTURE. Every man who desires to succeed must be a student of his times. We cannot farm, or trade, or labor as our fathers did and succeed. The railroad, the telegraph, the telephone have intro duced new methods, and he who would succeed must avail himself of all modérn helps. We in California vannot farm as they farm east of the Rocky mountains and prosper—nor in one portion of this State as we might in another, The varieties of climate and soil and accessibility to market must all be-considered. The schools must imitate the secular callings and modily their courses and methods of study and instruction, if they would fully meet existing demands. They are to equip children for the business of California and for citizenship in the United States, or fall short of their duty. We should all be students in a wider sense of the present and future of our State and coast, of the drift and prospeciive outcome of our national life. These dre the reasons why this subject has been selected for present discussion. I prepose to treat it. under three aspects—as a local, a natidnal and a race question, To begin with this coast: If anyone could transport himeelf backward thirty-five or forty years, and into the average eastern community where the news of thediscovery of gold on this coast firat began pervading it, he would discover t the effecta of the news upon the different clusses was as various as their dispositions, The quiet, studious boy, devoted io his parénts, to his church, to hia neighborhood or perhaps held by a still dearer tio, scarce felt a ripple of excitement. His brother, less domestic and more self reliant and daring, was set on fire by the news and neither rested nor permitted others to rest until reluctant consent was given that home ties should be sundered and the risk of a trip to the new El Dorado should be adventured. Hence our first settlers were self reliant, daring, enterprising and bright, but not especially spiritual or domestic. They intended to gain the present world—few of them thought muchy of the next. In time their wives or sweethearts followed, or new attachments were

formed in the new land, children were born in the image of their parents, and so @ new order of society arose. And this is the society we are endeavoring to mould. The influence of the Puritan immigration to New England, and of the Cavalier immigration to the South has been perpetuated in the respective sections to the present generation. The influence of the particular classes who came here first will survive for centuries. Society here has been modified still further by the industries of the State. The first settlers intended to get in, but not by slow steps. The hamdrnm methods and the slow accretions of the east could not satisfy. They must gain rapidly and ona large scale. They entered ‘themines, underwent great hardships, took great hazards and many pucceeded, If others failed it was but torenew the straggle again and again until success came, or. courage and strength failed and they fell by the way. The survivors are the capitalists and men of mark in Culifornia today, Sacramento valley, the method wae similar. ' Large areas were seeded in wheat. If the skies gave plenteous showers they were lifted into competence; if drouth followed, they ,were plunged into bankruptcy. risks of the miner were carried into tbat industry which elsewhere is so. to the sowing—opulence or bankrupt oy: Fe ese later day course—it was a con. “ns and positively ness of our climate.

Sober business methods must supplant hazardous speculations, patient industry and slow accretions must satisfy the ambitions of the young. Education and religion must teach that something better than masoul And all of these must combine to strengthen the domestic bonds. The speaker next considered “Ou: Times’”’ under the national aspect and discussed the exaggerated notions o liberty existing among youth and _ toreign population, and the need of hold ing them under more stringent repression ; the industrial changes which are taking place by tl.e intr duction of labor-saving machinery, the tendency of these changes to release men from the hord drudgery of toil, and give more leisure ‘to the laboring classes, and the need of rational and spiritua occupation for the mind and heart; the wonderful progress in wealth through which the United States now lead the van among the nations, the dangers arising from the same, and the safeguards demanded by the times; the tendency of wealth to center in few hands, the menace of such aggregations to legislation and to labor, the restiveness of the laborer under the unequal distribution, and the urgent demand upon. capital if it would retain its acknowledged rightr to give greater attention to the welfare of the producer. The addrvss concluded with an allusion to the Anglo-Saxon race to which we belong; to its rapid strides in territorial agyrandizement; its in¢rease of population and power; to the magnificent geographical position of the United States and of the people of this coast on theewestern verge toward which the flow of population bar been setting for three thousand years. He pointed out the duty of the pulpit and the platform and the teacher’s desk especially to improve the great opportunity and hold out to the nationof the Orient across the sea the torch of education, of religion, of liberty and of civilization, which we hold in sacred and solemn trust for the nations of the world.
