LABOR IN CALIFORNIA.
The C'lilnc.oo to l c Di-ivon Out , Hut
Not Knougli JMon Ijol't.
A mnniifnctnrer in this city , who is not
n crank nor a politician , says tlio Alta
California , hns .submitted to us a propo
sition in relation lo tlio Uhine.su which ho
believes to be the lirst step toward rid-
dinfx the country of those people. His
plan is to utop employing and putroni/-
mg them , and to stop employing and
patroni/.iii those who do employ and
patroni/.e them. Tlio rolniler is to boy
cott tlio wholesaler who employs ( Jhine.so
labor , nnd -wholesaler is iii turn to
boycott the retailer who is guilty of the
same odunsu. The banks are to refuse
credit to merchants anil manufacturers
who truck or trade witli the Chinese ,
nnd in this way the Mongolians are to bo
shut np to fitow in their own gravy.
It is a plan that can be carried out
only if backed strongly by a vigilant and
practically u mnimons public r pinion.
Wo dump the Chinese together and con
sider tlie meielianl. and the broker , and
insurance man us tlio yoke-follow of tlie
cooly , nud tins increases the dillieiilty of
a general boycott. This indiscrimina
tion is no help ton solution of tin : quus-
tion , since tlie prosunoe of Chiiicso mur-
elinnls here is merely the complement of
the presence of American merchants in
Cnina , which is necessary to the mainte
nance of our trade with that country.
Wo CUM sen no valid objeolion to 1'ft '
presence of Uhincsu men-liutU Jioro lo
engage in foreign trade , miTl if we maku
their exclusion u ; : nrtof our polioy we
Tiiust b'e rsTfdy to ftccopt Its' con-
soiieiion3 ( | in the cxeiiibion of
American merchants from China.
Its consequences include A defeat
of our whole sehemo of exclusion of Chi
nese laborers , since tli6re arc enormous
Commercial interests in Itoston nnd New
York embarked in Cliirio o trndo whlnli
can inlluuiiRo nnd will inlliicnco and
ought to inllucnco eastern public .senti
ment and congressional action. We ho-
lievo in atteiuptins possibilities only ,
and so believing , we think thnt the e.v-
pnlHivo energies of our people Should bo
directed against Chinese labor. 'I'liO
Marquis Tseng lias said foimttldng about
evitn thnt brduking diplomatin relations
with China. Well , then , hit them break.
The mnrqnis need not bo told tlmt the
presence of American fnbor in China is
an impossibility. It is not permitted.
Then why Miould the presence ol Chi
nese labor bo permitted hero under a
treaty thnt IT based upon thu theory of
reelproVnI advnnlaged 1
Hut to return to tlio mnnufactiii'er and
liis boycotting proposition. Jlnvlug
pointed out in very intelligent detail llio
way to get rid of tlie Chinen , lie vviwl'ly
considers tint substitute for the labor tlmt
must bo ready to fill tlio vacancies , and
thereupon makes thu remarkable -umiiH-
hlou tlial hiieh labor is not in California
and will Imvu to Im imported. Ho pro
poses u joint stock company of guaran
teed immigration which will pay tlio fnvo
of hi borers from thu cast , niKl guaran
tees them employment for n lixed period.
