ChiBOfe Labor aad the Orange.-
Lecture delivered at Spring Valley Grange,
June 30, 1877, by VV. A. HENnv.
There is no doubt but what Chinese labor
Is u question of moro lmportanco than in
Just now attached to It by members or the
grange, bocamo it-ii a quostion of labor, and
labor in tho foundation upon which all our
intorn-ts rest, upon which tho jrrangd roUs.
Io Miort, Is tho only real wealth we have as
it tuition. The great national iKcfobtcdness N
uothlnw more than a credit based upon the
proopr-ot of labor paymj; It. Labor is wealth.
Oold', M'lver, grueubackR, are modlum of
oxchHOpo, tibetl to purchase tho products of
Ubor; in fact all credit is derived from tho
prOHpcutof controlling labor. The Inbabl
UnlMof iiHtions aro prosperous, fro J, Intel,
kctunl.and ountented, lu proportion as its
labor is dlrcc'ca and controlled not for tho
beiKfitofCho few, but lor tho advanenment
of the laboring classos. Wo should guard
with Jualous care tho freo-labor sysem that
has contributed moro to tho advancement of
republican Institutions than any thing olse.
In tho Old World men and womon are born
to position in society here wo work up to it.
Thoro Is no stimulus of position to prompt
tho laborers of the, Old World to actlvo
nothing but to supply their physical wants
with food and ototblng. There tho aoyorn
mout takes caro aud operates dlroctly upon
its subjects. In this country tho laborors
aro the government, and are eligible to
reach any position. And these positions are
reached with but few exceptions by com
mencing at tho lower rounds of the ladder
and working up to tho top,.aftor long yoars
of toll and striot attention to business. The
only wealth tho laboring classos bavo to In
vest, is tbolr labor, or tltno, which they
bavo to sell to capitalist or to those having
to purchase labor, being wortli in tho mar
ket a prlco corresponding to tho amount of
Intelligence, sklll,and Industry possessed by
tho laboror. Thoir waos govornod at tho
same tlmo by that groat natural law which
rulos almost ovory thing human, of supply
unci domand. That Is tho oxact position that
labor and capital should n I ways occupy to.
wards oaoh othor, uoitbor ono rccolylng aid
from govornmogt, govorntxl only by tho
natural course of supply utid demand, hon
est competition entering Into every dopart
merit of Industry ono capitalist's manufac
tured good coming In competition lu the
market with another's the oporator, tho
artlr.nn and farmor, all mooting each othors
products on the samo looting. When tills is
thooiso, wliloh wo have had in our govern
ment during tho yoars of our greatost pros
perity, ho that porforms his work well Is
gonorally tho most successful houost in
dustry U rewarded, strict business Integrity
lasucoeisful alter years of patient labor.
Tho groatost good dorlvod from following
theso natural laws of supply and demand Is
not the greatest amount of money stored
away, bat the government It makes, the
social order It establishes, the manhood and
womanhood It ereots, and the noble charac
ters It forma. The young taught economy,
hablta of Industry and practical Ideas of bus
iness. As long as labor and capital are not
changed from those natural channels, neither
ono has the advantage, both are necessary
for oaoh other's suooesa, they go hand In
hand together. Now tho question is will
Chinese labor add toonpltai or labor? will
It disturb that progress of development go
ing on In this StatoT I claim that It will,
that It does now, and wilt continue to do so
as long as tho Tlurllugatue .treaty Is tho law,
Chlnoso labor la Introduced and worked by
capitalists, not booauso ho has moro fcklll,

has gained tboao positions by creating a de
mand lor hli labor, or by excelling bis coin,

customs foreign to the ostabliahod usages ol
our civilisation, ho is tho servant of capital,
brought here by It, worked by It, tiuya his
supplies from them, all tho money he makes
loaves tho country oris put Into the hands of
theae Ohlno companies, Instead of being In
vested lu cheap lands, building material,
to.,a would lit) done by white labor. He
moves and llvo-t out side of the moral,
soohl,aid political elomont In our govern
ment that has AmorlcHulr.nl the Kuropoan
Immigrant, lie take no Interest In the af
fairs of our government, adds nothing to the
vupportof school and benevolent Institu
tions, creates no domand for home nianu
laoturtt, refuse to become a olllzeu, a tax
payer, or a aoldler, About all we know
about hom they urn put nut In herd by
these oonipanlos, as tho stock men do tlouks
and herds In Ivisteru Oregon, with one slight
illtVerotRM. The Mock men aim to Improve
their herdi aud these companies till their
ponkett, Tho qulutoiMUico of his uxeful
ueii In this county (lis cUlimul !y his
fiMitd) is thst he Is a govt cook, and a
grubber, 'this kind of labor li ueciuuury
pttrhnM, but It U dour labor to tho people (if

Any Wind of men that have no othtr object
lu view than to grub, are poor luiui to en
courage to come to this country. Wrought
to, eiicounge, and lu fact Onion's grva't-st
waul In day Is an industriuus immigration
(and they are coming) who aro willing to

the large tracts of wasteland Into neat com
fortable homes, improve our cities, schools
and churches, erect manufacture and make
a home market, Increase our .population to
00,000 iustead of 100,000. Will Chluee
labor do UT or will It be an obstlcle In the
way of others? Chinese labor and 1m migra
tion will not wish for homes, and a perms
inent residence they do not want, and their
taking the place of other labor will baaa

Capital on this coast and in Oregon has the
advantago of tho agricultural laborer from
many causes; receiving atd from govern
ment and from tho State so astoonable
thorn to control tho commorco of tbo State,
and having invosted their money not ad
vantageous to the farmors' Interest. This is
natural, for thoy always Invest wherolt pajs
the host. It pays bettor for them to own
largo tracts of land, loan money on farming
lauds, than to mako plows, wagons, farm
machinery, woolen goods, aud a thousiiDd
othor articles too numerous to inntlnn that
aro shipped hero from the East. It certainly
would l)o foolish for thorn to erect foutulrlos,

Induce thorn to do so. Wo huvo not got pop

Immigration bo tho remedyT Tho trouble
with him ho has but few wants horu below
and they aro products of anotboroeuntry.
Uo don't want home, In ,fact ain't got uo
wants, ho has pruotlcod tho economical doc
trine of Confucius for nlno thousand yosrt
moro or loss uutll ho Is n thousand years
ahead ol our civilization or a thoueaod years
bohlud. Thoouly point of1 resemblance In
which bo tadlates within a thousand miles
of our tlmo (as claimed by his friends) be
can grub. It Is easy to see that we don't
want him In the rafg. Interests because of
hlsobeap labor, lor he Is H rat needed as an
agriculturist, as a settler, a mechanic, and
In any of these departments he Is a nuisance.
Ono of the reasons why he works for cheap
wages his wants are few and simple, and it
la urged that bis labor Is necessary because
white labor is to high. No one will but ad
mit that whlto labor would be boat If they
would workas cheap as theiChlnaman, that
they never will do unless we adopt the
celestial's inannor and customs. White
labor will oome to a reasonable price when
tho causes that mako white labor high are
romoved. Hundreds of good hands have
ooiuoto this State, worked at all kiuds of
farm work fo one or two yoars, are now on
tbelrown places taken up in Ktvtern Or-
legon, rented farms and working for them
selves. White labor is high becanso we
bavo thousands of acres of wild lauds open
for settlement. Tho only way to get cheap
white labor Is to settle up our waste places,
111! up tho valley of Km tern Oregon with
prosperous thriving working population, In
stead of oattlo aud wild horses, Every
Chinaman that is employed In tills county
Is tilling a position that oould be occupied
by a white man (even at higher wages) who,
with but few exceptions, would noon become
a permanontolllzon aud add morn real wealth
to tho State than three or four Chinamen.
It has boon tald that white immigration
would not work, could not be employed.
This Is a mistake, Thouands of n bile men
have been Induced to come to Oregon and
liae searched In vain for work. Many of
them were poor and reatly In want. I hayo
seen mauy of them willing to do auy kind
of labor at the employer's own price. At the
vatue time tno almond-eyed Chinaman was
tilling all the places, sleek and as fat, and
npparently as woll contontod as a Kansas
grasshopper. It is also claimed that If whlto
labor expects to got employment .they must
work for the sime wages that tho Chinamen
do. If their wants aro more numerous limn
the Chinaman's they must econnmlre, live
more hluiple, wear lest expenolve clothing,
In (.hort, have few er wants. Is it really so
that lu order to compete with this strange
heathen, wo mint drop In a few days all the
practices of a Christian clvlllratlon? must we
ceajw to take newspapers, books and periodi
cal? tvao to put money In churches, semi
naries and public Improvement? disband
our agrlcultuial roulettes? ceaie to follow
tho teachings of the grange, to adorn and
beautify our home with useful inventions,
pictures, slower, fruits, and improved stock?
return to the chop stick? stow ourselves
away like rats In a don, 20 persona in a room
12 by lo feet? There is no doubt that many
useless hablia aud customs are practiced by
the people at this advauced agej bnt true
economy doa not mean any suoh degrada
tion. The fundanentel principle of the

S. A. Clarke ban a Hock of Angoiaigoats In
his pasture near town, south, and this morn
ing, before breakfast, as he was visiting tho
hills and salting the goats, which aro espec

a strange animal, and white spotted, large
site, bighorns, heavy beard ana resembling
one of the beasts of the Annealy pso, Ibat had
beoom moat unaooounlably one of tho band.
He at first thought it was the devil, whloh It
may be yst, but remembering thst the Ma
sons have a goat to be ridden In the Initiatory
exerolses, It has occurred to hltn that this
hlstorio animal has got loose, and as Its Iden

the Morgan-killers to tako the beast
away, free of charge. Rev. P. 8. Knight
