The population of China is variously estimated at front 350.000.000 to 450.000.000. There are now in the United States about 125.000. about 75.000 of whom are in California. With what disfavor and apprehension they are regarded by the people of California may be deduced from the vote of the people of that State in 1879. when the question of Chinese immigration was submitted to the people. The vote was 883 for. and 154.638 against this immigration. A similar vote was taken in Nevada with the result of 183 for. and 17.250 against this immigration. Now. to my mind these votes are very significant. The people of California and Nevada are as good and patriotic as the people of the other States. of the Union.
