C
PEOPLE RULE.
After all the people, the com
m people are the power behind
the throne in this great western
cuntry. A good, healthy senti
ment backed by the necessary
amount of "might" comes very
nearly making right according to
western ideas. An incident
wh ch occurred twenty-one years
a.c in Humboldt county, Califor
nia, Dears evidence to tne power
of the people when they take a
stand.
In Eureka, the County seat of
Humboldt, there was until 1885
quite a Chinese population. They
occupied a section of the city and
their quarters were known as is
usual by the name of "China
town." The "chinks" were
eternally at war among them
selves, but what the English
speaking laboring people disliked
more than anything was the fact
that they competed in the fields
of labor with the result that
wages were lowered. The aver
age American- appears to have
inherited a dislike for a China-
man and nowhere was the feeling
of antipathy more in evidence
than in Humboldt in 1885.
Howevei , nothing was done
against the Chinese until the ce
lestials in one of their highbind
ing raids shot and killed one
David Kendall, a man generally
beloved by the people of his
county. This act was as a
match applied to powder. The
people arose in' a body and scour
ed the county from corner to cor
ner for Chinamen. The latter
were placed on boats and deport
ed. To the credit of the pdbple
it must Restated that no violence
was dona the Chinese- They
were simply sent from the coun
ty and told never to return.
the will of the people was
obeyed until this fall when the
Eureka Chamber of Commerce
granted a salmon cannery on Eel
River the privilege to work china
men -during the fishing season.
This was an open defiance and vio
lation of the will of the laboring
people after an observance of
more than twenty' years and ac
cording to last reports there was
much feeling in Humboldt over
the matter. ' One thing is certain
and that is that the '. "chinks'"
will go when the salmon are can
ned, if not sooner.
DENSE IGNORANCE.
Truly, the American people
possess patience in great measure,
else we should now and then
hear of some illustrious foreigner
being treated to a supreme
roast" for the freedom with
which they criticise the Ameri
cans and American institutions.
It is quite an every-day matter
for men of prominence in old
world affairs to visit our shores,
spend a month or two in some
of our most populous cities, and
return home to write scathing
and abusive articles on us and
our shortcomings.
Some do not possess the court
esy tr wait until thsy have de
pr.rt?d and ceased to partake of
our hospitality ere they begin
their denunciations.
Anions the latest to stoop to
this practice is Maxim Gorsky.
This Russian, the Americans are
fair-minded enough to recognize
as an able writer. They also
grant that he is patriotic and
that his prime object in coming
to the United States was in the
hope that he might accomplish
something for t
countrymen.- In
3 benefit of his
oar minds we
treated him fairly. , J
Be it remembered that when
he first touched foot to American
soil he gave glowing accounts of
J his impression of us and our
I great republic. Our manners
and our institutions were eulogi
zed in glowing terms. Bear in
mind that Gorsky was not forget
ful of the Statute of Liberty and
told of all it suggested o hjm as
he passed by on board a ship
bearing him to the land of the
tree. Z '.
But Gorsky in all his greatness
came upon Yankee soil with an
atmosphere wholly his own
wrapped about him an atmos
phere of a moral nature that
closed one door after another in
his face. He had with him a
woman whom , he introduced as
his wife, but who was not en
titled to be thus dignified. Per
haps on this account more than
any other his trip to the United
States resulted in dismal failure
or worse. Now he is writing
unfavorable criticisms of us. In
a recent article he appears to
have forgotten his first sensation
on beholding the Statute of Lib
erty, for he refers to it as the
"torch of the dollar instead of
the torch of freedom."
It seems that in nothing about
us nor our institutions can he
now find anything to commend.
He saw a little of New York City
and in his ignorance fancies that
he has a knowledge of all we are
or may ever hope to be, as well
as everything we possess. Nat
urally, coming from such a land
as Gorsky does we could not ex
pect him to be in sympathy with
our ideas, but we have a right
to expect that he deal fairly with
us. ...... - . . -
The greater part of what he
has contributed to American,
magazines of his observations of
our shortcomings is founded in
error and is a colossal display of
ignorance. When Charles Dick
ens, the great English writer,
paid his first visit to this country
he gathered many wrong impres
sions of America and Americans
which he used freely in his writ
ings for years, in fact, until the
occasion of his second visit. He
then saw us more nearly as we
are and was man enough to apolo
gize for the unkind things he
had said of us. Will sorrfe power
dispel the ignorance of Gorsky
and will he prove possessed of
sufficient manhood, to do us jus-
Jtice? It is doubtful.
About Football.
Wnile the schedule ot games
has not yet been official Iv an
nounced by the OAC nianaut-r, it
is understood io oe aoout com
pleted and will sron be eiven the
public. Among the games if is
understood Corvallis will play
the Uuiveisity - of Washington,
Whitman College, the U. of O.,
and Willamette University.
It is practically, settled that
OAC will not meet tue Multno
mah Club team this season, a fact
that will not be regretted bv back
ers of the orange in Corvailis.
According to a dispatch in the
Albany Herald of Wednesday it
seems probable that Corvallis and
Albany will meet on the gridiron
this season. It speaks also of
prospects at Albany and says
Present indications point io a
strong team to represent Albany
on the checkerboard this seaeon.
Nearly all thr '. vers are t x-er-ieaced.
Tbi- . f co-irss will ..be
an immense advantage." Be.-Vdes
the games aheidv s: leduied it is
extreme'y probable that Albany
will mee t the husky farmers, from
OAC, ut Corvallis. The Corval
lis manager has written Manager
Gibbons asking for a game, and
he will doubtless be recommoda
ted. . While the local aggrega
tion will be much lighter than
OAC the new rules wilt be of ad
vantage to Al Wauy, and the con
test should be a good one.
