Ku-Kluxing in California

A fight occurred at Los Angeles, California, on Wednesday last, which indicates that the ku-klux spirit is rife in that far-off region. On the occasion of an attempt to arrest a Chinaman a large mob gathered around the Chinese quarters of the town, and attacked the entire population of that race, numbering about fifty persons. The mob was resisted by the Chinese, when five hundred armed men surrounded the quarter to prevent the Chinese from escaping. Fifteen Chinamen were hanged by the mob, and their houses fired, though the fire was extinguished before any damage resulted. Quiet was finally restored, but the citizens are determined that the Chinese shall leave the town.
