To talk about discrimination be tween the person with the fat bank balance and the poor coolie in these circumstances is absurd. The in- genuity which Chinese coolies and amnhs will show in conserving their bwn property and turning it to some useful purpose is remarkable, but the lessons of thrift which they have learned in their own villages never seem to be applied to other people's possessions.
