"In 1854 an entirely new life was opened to me by my election to the office of town constable. San Francisco at that time was divided into four townships, each having its own constable. I was elected constable of the first township on the Democratic ticket. In 1855 I was the only nominee elected on the same ticket. After 1856 I was reelected every two years on the old People's party ticket, and held the office of constahle till 1866, when I was elected Chief of Police.

The contractors, Weed & Anderson, brought out a great number of Chinese one day and set them to work. That was the inauguration of the Chinese troubles in this city. The whites quit work immediately, and a few hours afterwards cars were upset, shanties were burning, men were raging, and law and order were thrown to the winds....
