Show And now Augusta, Ga., has got the anti-Chinese fever. It seems that for several j'ears past the Chinese have been, flocking to Augusta in considerable numbers, num-bers, and have adopted the advocations usual with Chinamen in this country. The anti-Chinese virtue of Augusta seems tohave been aroused from reading the accounts of the anti-Chinese agitation in Washington Territory, and not from any particular dislike to the Chinese there. In the West it is said that tlie Chinese are the enemies of the working classes, while in Augusta they are said to have many friends among the lower classes. This is owing to some climatic influence, no doubt. |
