when It comes to organization the
Chinese could give the politicians card
ina spades and win out The proof of
this Is the Chinese Six Companies,
whose , prortac. however, is not so
much political sa social and commer
cial. The original purpose of the Chinese
KU Companies was the mutual protec
tion of the Chinese la their Journeys to
and from America and sending home
for burlsl in ancestral tombs the bones
of those who died here. The purpose
bss broadened, however, until today
the Six Companies act officially In all
affairs of moment for the Chinese peo
ple In America. To understand the
necessity for such a society one must
take a look st the Chinaman at borne.
In China the most Important political
and social Institution Is the dsn or
ganisation. Family trees In China are
deep rooted and many branched, and
almost any Chinaman's genealogical
record dates back twenty-five to fifty
generation. Indeed, twenty -five cen
turies Is what some claim.
The descendants of a common ances
tor form a clan. They cluster together
in a village or district, calling one an
other coualns, but are not allowed to
Intermarry on penalty of death. Among
the jieople of a clan every man over
sixty years Is an elder, regardless of
his station. Only those of the younger
men who have passed government ex
amination are worthy of the distinc
tion gained by virtue of age.
The latter are known as "kongmlng."
or titled scholars, and. together with
the elder, they constitute the officers
of the clan. It la the business of these
officer to decide all affairs of Impor
tance for the clan. In matters of espe
cial Intercut boy who have attained
their majorlty-elifbteen yearsare al
lowed a voice. At aa annual meeting
the anceatnil lands are rented out to
the blghct bidder, thoae near by to
member of the dan, those at a dis
tance to outsider. Quarterly the offi
cers meet to collect the rents. These
rents from the ancestral property are
kept In the clan treaaury to pay taxes
and the general expenses of the dan,
such a lawflult, public buildings,
roada, celebrations of birth aud deaths.
Mould a member of the clan fall to
pay hi rtut the officers demand It
from tbe bend of bis Immediate family.
All qunrrela, dlaputes and unsettled
debts within the cluu are settled ac
cording to the counsel of tbe titled
scholars and elders. In case of a quar
rel with members of another chin If
their owu member Is In the wrong the
officers apologlae and punish the wrong
doer. Otherw ise, they demand redress
from the other side. Tbe officers bare
authority to correct wayward youtba
who disobey their parents, also to pun
ish those who sell opium In tbe Tillages
or gamble with boys.
Thus the nature of the Chinese Six
Companies In this country Is apparent
When, after the discovery of gold la
California, tbe Chinese flocked here by
tbouaanda, what was more natural than
that they sbot&l organize after the cus
tom of their country? Many of tbe
Chinese w ho came had never been more
than fifty or a hundred miles from their
birthplaces, and to be landed alone In
ru.hlug, roaring, boomlug Pan Francis
co was confusing even to people with
out pigtail. At first there was but one
society, and when a nblp came In the
society sent wagon to take the Immi
grants and their baggage to Chinatown,
where they w ere supplied w ith a room.
water and wood for a mouth or two
uutll they found work. Tbl took
money, which was supplied by volun
tary subscriptions and voluntary taxes.
Theu a rule wus mude whereby every
Chinaman leaving the I'ulted States
was required to contribute an amount
w bleb has varied from $d to I'JO.
At first the president of the society
was chosea for an ludeQnite term, but
a the Chinese Increased and different
clans were represented Jealousy ap
peared. No cluu was willing that a
member of another dan should be
president for life. It was not long be
fore there were alx different aocletles
or companies representing the most
populous clans. They were called and
are still known as the Sam Yup, Yung
Wo, Kong Chow, Nlng Yung, Uop Wo
and Yan Wo.
From a small beginning the Six Com
panies bars become a we.hy organi
sation with a large surplus on band,
which la constantly Increased by In
rattment Their disbursements sre
correspondingly heavy. They, spent
f 100,000 testing tbe conatltutionWIty of
the Geary act and have from time to
time contributed liberally to the aid of
sufferers from disaster both In China
and this country, and to other public
affairs here.
The fact that virtually aU the Chi
nese belong to the Blx Companies does
Dot prevent their forming similar
miller" iocTetlcs In every town Wfiere
their number Justifies It Tbey may
hare the same name as one of the Six
Companies, but tbey are purely local
la character. All lniortant matters are
taken to the Six Companies, whose di
rectors sre men of affair who under
stand tbe laws of this country, employ
American lawyers and take all respon
sibilities off tbe shoulders of their
brethren, who know nothing of the
laws of tbe country and cire less, save
where they are forced to consider them.
