I'OIITATION OF CHINE-Sn.
IYoia the San Francr.seo Alta.
Tiev. Father Bouchard, S. J., lec
tured last evening tit St. Fraiiem'
church, Vallojo street, on " China
men or White jren Yliich?" The
church, which is one of the largest
in the city, was crowded, and many
were unable to obtain admittance.
The subjects elected by the Itev. lec
turer is more popular now than it has
been for sometime. Attention has
been called to the effects, of Chinese
emigration on "our hoys," and it
has been made the theme of dis
course before Temperance organiza
tions and other societies. Father
Bouchard is admittedly a gentleman
whose reputation as a scholar and
thinker stands very high He is a
close ohsorver of current events, and
as a lecturer he is tiuent and even
brilliant. He touches all subjects
upon Avhich he lectures with great
care, yet he exhausts them, so to
speak ; and while his extreme cau
tion and nice selection of phrases
make his remarks entirely uiiobjec
tior.ahle, he still cuts as severely and
perhaps more severely, than they
who disregard the feelings of those
who ftifier from them in opinion.
Under all the circumstances, the an
nouncement of a lecture by Father
Bouchard on the subject selected
could not have failed to draw a large
attendance.
Before proceeding to the subject of
his lecture Father Bouchard said he
was smTering from a severe cold, but
he should try to entertain the audi
ence. The subject was a strange
one for him, but it is exciting a good
deal of interest, lie considered it
strange himself that he should have
selected it, and almost wished that he
had not. But he seized it that he
may make it tlm means of helping the
goodSistei-s of Presentation Convent.
The question of the importation of
the Chinese is one of great import
ance, and he was glad the people
were waking rip to the fact. The
importation of thousands of idolaters
to our country can be of no good.
The journals speak of the wealth to
To obtained hy cheap labor, hut the
journalists who vide free over our
railroads would do well to examine
still closer this question of free labor.
In less favored governments w here
labor is cheap we lind a pampered
aristocracy who live at the expense
of the many. When the rate of
wages is low, the moral and intellec
tual status of the people has fallen.
Cheap labor has left many monu
ments of it:; results ; sach as the
Pyramids of Egypt, the C'oliiseum
at Borne, and other Collo sal ruir.s.
What citizen of the United States,
who pretends to love Ids country,
would say let us also leave great
works like those behind re. even if
we i:i.i-t reduce ten or twenty mil
lions of our people to that servitude
of the builders of those monuments
f Egypt and Borne V Such language
would be treasonable, and the man
uttering it would deserve to be in
carcerated for life.
In Great Britain cheap labor aid d
hy machinery, have reduced the con
dition of the operative to an abjeei
and degraded condition, to live;; of
suffering and toil worse than slavery.
Are citizens of the United States wil
ling to have their fellow oiii :ens re
duced ! the same miserable condi
tion
? The man who would sav lie
is. is a parasite and a fratricide. lie
could cat the throat of his father and
of his mother and sell his country
for self the only god he wor.-hips.
If money was the only object, the ar
gument of those who favor the intro
duction of Chinese would seem good.
As it is, however, based on a low, sor
did, degraded basis, for which every
thing worth having is to he sacriiiced,
it must he refutd I.
The cheap labor of the Chinese is
no advantage1 to the oountry in which
they live. If cheap labor existed
among our own people, and that
there was a jiroportionate reduction
in rents, etc., it would be perhaps of
s mc bencilt. Bat how much of the
money earned hy the Chinese do tliey
invest here ? The lecturer answered
this question by referring to the
everyday assertion that Chinese r.end
their money homo, and go with it.
There are, said he, about eleven
thousand Chinese in this city, and I
am informed lv ihe Assessor that
thev pav onlv tf'.hOoO taxes, or about
one-third of the amount paid by one
citizen. The loss bv lire occasioned
through thfcir carelessness is greater
than all that lias been realize;! from
their labor. By their agency white
citizens are driven from honorable
labor to leal lives of infamv. lint
we cannot blame the Chinese, and I
condemn all harsh measures toward
them. They come here or are 1 trough t
uit here, and they find employment,
and those employers helj to hring
about that which they may live long
enough to repent. The lecturer then
referred to the inconsistency of mak
ing war on slavery in the South whil,.
they introduce another class of hu
man servitude: for these Chinamen
como here to serve out an allotted
'dme of bondage, diilering little from
At' riean slavery. It also encourages
slavery in China ; and those men who
encourage the one, or employ slave
labor, deserve the condemnation of
Ids fe'lo w man. The speaker insisted
that it was unconstitutional and ille
gal, and deserving of the severest
censure. A great many think that
the C iiinese are benefitted bv eemin"
aeaong ns. Our phiIantln.V i-.f-; '?L
religions zealots teach them to read,
and then introduce them to the Bi
hle. The effort is commendable but
the result is not equal to the rfort
ami the whole eubrt is abortive-'
ltness the unfortunate vom-u who
mfest the city. I doubt that they
will ever be conv-'vV'.l t- . ,i. -
impossible to convert them at home.

ant brethren were not even
ces -ful. Even if tliey came here "free
m any censurable Lumbers ti,.,.. j
would he dangerous to our country '
because they are an inferior race. " j
The speaker then went on to shoAv
that, with a civilization ex'endine- '
hack more than ihoOO vears. with an '
immense population and wealth Avith '
a large sea-board giving them facil- !
ities for communication Avith foreign '
powers, they have stood still. and !
have made no advancement in science I
ciMlization, commerce, or tig --.s !
They are not a hrave people, as
evinced by their wars with England
and France. He referred to the ef
fect upon the morals of tho people,
and summing up, said : " Yet these
people are willing to desecrate the
land that gave birth to a Washing
ton ; to men who proclaimed in the
ears of the British lion the Declara
tion of Independence; to desecrate
the 'home of the brave and the land
of the free,' oy introducing those
vicious, immoral pagans, to this free
countrv.
The lecturer then drew a glowin"-
contrast lie t ween the Chinese and
white men, and said we want the
white man to perpetuate our glorious
institutions, to maintain our self
respect at homo and our influence
abroad, and to make this American
Itepuhlie eternal.
The lecturer thanked the audience
for their presence and kind attention,
and then left the pulpit.
Another "Litigant" Kill.
It will ho remembered howl utterly
the llepuhlican press denounced the
"Act to protect litigants," character
izing it as an "outrage upon popular
rights, enacted for the purpose of
maintaining a pauper press, which
would starve without the enforced
patronage of unwilling Itepiiblic
ans." One would have thought that
these chivalrous editors would scorn
to be beneiitted by a similar measure,
and that none but impecunious Dem
ocratic publishers could be so base
as to accept patronage under such
circumstances ! But, gentle reader,
such a supposition would be falla
cious, and had the Bitigant Act giv
en the advertising to those indignant
Badieal scribblers, they -would have
defended it as one of the be.r.t meas
ures ever enacted by a California
Legislature. To show that wo are
correct in this declaration, Ave will

to the lucky proprietors. Willis
Drummond, Commissioner of the
General Land Olliee, has promul
gated an order requiring all such
notices in the Stockton District to be
published in the Stockton Lu U y ,--,
and that journal now employs the
type a while a go used toprint denun
ciations of the " Litigant Act," in
perfo.iming this services for the un
willing settlers of the San Joaquin
Yalley. It makes a great difference
as to whose ox is gored. The Imh:
l;l;t thought the Litigant Act
Bull a terrible l.ea-t ; but the Land
Ooicc Bull is a most lovely creature!
The Fresno J-J.fpos',''jr is of quite a
diil'erent opinion, however ; and the
editou gives vent to his ju.-t indigna
tion in the folio v. ing vigorous terms :
"The action of Commissioner
Drummond., making the Sioeton
i,, ':',f the organ of the Laud
0:Uee for ihe Stock Ion D;sti it is a
most unwarranted and uncalled for
interference with private business.
It is a "litigant bill" of the worst
t lass. The Stockton I, ,'rj-, ih ,J is
an adm!ni -'( ration organ ; a repre
sentative of every Bad iced scheme of
plunder, and has no feeling or inter
est in common with the people of the
District vhi -k is to be made to fur
nish subsistence for it by the uncall
ed for edict of Willis Drummond.
The J.il-jru,l,-;,t ha; a circulation of
one copy in this county. We receive1
that one as an exchange. We do not
think it circulates over one hundred
copies in all the counties of the
Stockton District, outside of San
Joaquin. Under this mandatory or
der of the Commissioner", for the
re-asou of its limited circulation, evil
disposed parties will be enabled to
possess them ;elves of land, and min
ing claims, the rightful property of
others, without any notice being seen
by the parties interested. If the
Commissioner thought the local pa
pers were charging too high, why
did ho not establish his prices, and
let the work still remain at the dis
posal of the county papers which
alone can give a proper notice ? Bed
tliis was only the ostensible o! eject of
the order. The real reason is to bo
found in the fact that between now
and the H2d day of Ahirch all home
stead and pre-emption applications
made prior to the 'S2 day of ?Iareh,
1S'2, must be proven up, and this,
together with the new applications,
will throw, at the prices established,
lifieen or twenty thousand dollars'
worth of adveiiising per year into
the hands of the proprietors of the
I,i'.l-Kil.-ut. The country publish
ers frequently take their pay from the
applicants in farm produce ana! labor,
but the organ will demand and re
ceive coin." .fosa Arit'-;.

How I Became a Temperance Man.
In my young days I used to in
dulge quite freely, although I never
was a hard drinker. A thorough
knowledge of the business, adtod to
a good capacity, made it easy with
me. It Avas no work at all, and I
would rather drink than not.
I have done more deep thinking
and scheming and planning to lay
out a day's campaign for drinking,
than would have been necessary to
have urosecutcd asuccessfulmilitary
i . .
i exuedition into an enemy s country.
i would lav out mv lino of march
and rush up anil down the front of
well-known saloons, and happen in
so many different places in such a
short space of time that I really as
tonished my acquaintances.
In the morning there would he the
lunch houses to visit, which was no
small job, for I often had to go
through every one of them from one
end of town to the other before find
ing the gentleman I was looking for,
and I never would have found him
if some one hadn't asked me up to
take a drink. But those were the
truly happy days.
Since I have risen to opulence, and
hcen aide to walk into a saloon and
order with a certainty of not being
kicked out, I have f jund there is
more real pleasure in pursuit than
possession.
The man who has no amhition hut
to keep his belly full, and do that
too on the least amount of work pos
sible, is truly miserable. If happy
he don't see beyond his nose, he
thinks he vo-c every thing.
But I digress. Afy wife never saw
me drunk but once, and it effected
me so I could not have the heart to
repeat it.
I- will never forget that evening.
I was pretty tight when I got home,
hut inTess than fifteen minutes I was
perfectly sober.
She had been sweeping and was
sitting in the front room with a broom
in her hand.
As I entered the house she smolled
my breath, and it threw her into
hysterics.
"The broom commenced playing
about, and she commenced dancing.
I endeavored to quiet her nerves,
but it Avas no use. She Avas too bad
ly frightened,, and I started to leave,
but somehow or other the broomstick
came in contact Avith my head, and
broke it the broomstick in two.
It Avas a new instrument that I had
made her a present of the day Ave
went to housekee 'ing, and I felt so
sorry for her that I fell down on the
lloor unconscious.
