The _Record-Union_, of Sacramento, tells the story under this heading:—“CHINATOWN PREACHING. CHINESE MISSIONARIES KU-KLUXED, BUT NOT TERRIFIED.” I wish you had space for the entire article, but it would cover too many pages. Suffice it to say, that in connection with other Chinese Christians, our helper, Lem Chung, maintains a regular street-preaching service each Sabbath afternoon, in the very heart of the Sacramento Chinatown. Last Sabbath (August 14), as he and his companions approached the place, they found themselves confronted by a large _white_ poster covered with Chinese characters. White is the emblem of mourning among the Chinese, and gave to the poster much the same significance that black, emblazoned with skull and crossbones, would have done to the colored voters of the South some years ago. Many of the heathen Chinese had gathered to watch the effect of this woful paper on the advocates of the American heresy; and mingled surprise and horror seized them when Lem Chung proceeded coolly to take it down from the wall and read it aloud to them all. I give you his translation of its contents;—“It is claimed by the Christian preachers that Christ is the Lord of heaven and earth and the Creator. They only preach to make money, and it is useless to dispute with them; but something must be said to inform the people against this new false religion. It is learned from Christianity that Jesus was born only 1,881 years ago, which proves that it is false that he made the world; and telling a falsehood about this, they cannot be believed about anything else. Or, if Jesus was born before the world was made, then there was no world to hold Him when He was first born, or for Him to be upon, and His parents would have starved to death. How is it that you fellows keep so happy when you preach such news as this to us? Notice is hereby given that such of the Chinese people as have been converted to Christianity must not follow that way any more. Moreover, this religion must not be preached any more on the street, and if any shall do so they shall be arrested by the Six Companies and punished for preaching false doctrines and deceiving the people. They shall be given eighty lashes, and then dragged to the grave-yard and buried alive; their bones shall not be taken back to China, but shall remain foreign ghosts forever; and then they can believe in Jesus all they are a mind to. Whoever shall dare to take this white notice down shall be the son of no father.”
