Red and black spine labels with gilt lettering and trim. Chipping to head and tail of spine. Gutters starting. Ex-library stamps and markings from the New Hampshire state library. Interior pages are clean, unmarked and in great condition. This volume covers compiled, general, local and session laws, as well as, codes and statutes regarding Arizona, California, Colorado, Dakota, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. These regulations were being reviewed and published in the year 1885. The same year, the Rock Springs massacre occurred in the Wyoming territory. It was a result of a riot between Chinese immigrant miners and white immigrant miners. In addition to growing racial tensions, white miners were angered by the ongoing labor dispute over the Union Pacific Coal Department's policy of paying Chinese miners lower wages than white miners. This policy caused the Chinese to be hired over the white miner. When the rioting ended, at least 28 Chinese miners were dead and 15 were injured. Rioters burned 75 Chinese homes. This is an oversized or heavy book that requires additional postage for international delivery outside of Canada and the US.
