The manufacturers of Royal Baking Powder have always declined to produce a cheap baking powder at the sacrifice of quality or wholesomeness. The highest grade and most highly refined ingredients only are employed in Royal; hence its well known superiority. It is always the case that the consumer suffers in pocket if not in health by accepting cheap powders as substitutes for Royal Baking Powder. The Royal is made from pure grape cream of tartar, and is the embodiment of all the excellence possible to be attained in the highest class baking powder. Avoid alum baking powders.

S. FOOTE OUT FOR COURT COMMISSIONER If Appointed He Will Have All the Chinese Cases. Plan of the Coolie Brokers to Flood the Country With Alleged Native-Born Mongolian Citizens. INC the dismissal of Chief Meredi of the Chinese Bureau the Chine brokers have not been able any long- er to secure copies of the transcrip: of the statements of Chinese immigran on the steamers made to members of the Chinese Bureau, and they have been put- ting their heads together to devise some other means of landing their coolle chat tels. It was necessary to obtain these transcripts in order that the testimony of the witnesses secured in Chinatown by the brokers’ bureau should correspond and s taken down by the shorthand reporter of the bureau. Otherwise the discrepancy would be fatal to their case. There is now on foot a scheme whersby immigrants may be landed easily by the usual perjured evidence, and that 1s to provide that there shall be only one e tion, and that before the United Court Commissioner. In order to mplish this end a movement has been started to test the right of the,Chine: Bureau to examine or pass upon the claim themselve to be native-born. An argu- | ment_has been made to the Secretary of | I | the Crier’s column; good stories, edi- | ! tive the Treasury, and it is a plausible one, that the exclusion act relates only to na- tives of China, and that it cannot legally govern the going or the coming « of tue United States. Hence, it argued, although the immigrant be clad in Chinese costume and speak no lan- guage but Chinese,’if he makes claim that he is an American citizen by virtue of his birth the exclusion act cannot be ap- plied to him. the gates or to exclude him on the ground that hi tion of nativity is not be- lieved. In the former case the immigrant vill be arrested by members of the Chi- nese Bureau for being illegally within t© United States and he will have the rigit, claiming citizenship, of an appeal to tha local United States courts on writ of habeas corpus. Then he will go before a United States Commissioner with his wit- nesses and prove his nativity if he can. Should he be excluded in the first place by the Collector he can invoke the writ of habeas corpus as an American citizen, as he does now, and appear before the Com- missioner. In either case the bureau will not have any record of statement made | by him to be contradicted by his wit- nesses. | _This law point was brought up in the Dick Willlams case two years ago by Lyman I. Mowry, the acknowledged au- thority on Chinese exclusion law. Mr. Mowry argued on that occasion that the immigrant, if an American citizen, could not come under the exclusion act, no mat- ter what might be his garb or speech The fact that he claimed to be a native of this country was all that was required. The truth or falsity of the statement of | upon habeas corpus proceedings. The court did not pass upon the point because it was not considered relevant to the issue then pending before the court. There seems to be much merit in the contention of Mr. Mowry from a technically legal point of view, and it is this proposition that is now being laid before the Secre- tary of the Treasury in Washington by interested persons. Another snag in the way of the coolie importers has been and is United States Court Commissioner Heacock. Judge Heacock himself cross-examines the China- man who clalms to be a Yankee, and in nine cases out of ten he has been able by a very few questions to determine whether the witnesses have u;-‘-l or ‘.‘lhinzm ;:.? X ruth. ence - = 32;: ;‘!‘](llllzhil;g to avoid Judge Heacock as much as possible. 1t is expected lha‘\[ the Treasury Department will announce its policy in three or four weeks from o and if it should be in i 's contention the the line of Mr. | Pacific Slope will be flooded with coolies tent with that of the immigrant | claiming to be native Americans, the great obstacle of two conflicting state- ments as fo the same acts having been | removed. nited S s District Attorney | Henry 8. Foote has filed an application with TUnited States District Attorney Coombs for the position of United States | Court Commissioner. sThis is an appoint- ment solely in the hands of United States District Judge de Haven. He may ap- point as many as he pleases, there being | no salary attached to the office, the emol- ument of the incumbent being obtained in fees. It is the intention of the coolle ring, | should Mr. Foote or any other person re- | ceive the appointment, to bring all their | habeas corpus cases before the new Com-~ missioner, no matter who he may This is not assuming that Judge Foote, |1f he were appointed, would be more |lenient toward the immigrants than Judga | of revenge ngainst Judge Heacock | preventing the illegal landing of Chin for admission of Chinese alleging It will be the duty of the | Collector of the Port to pass him inside | the immigrant could be determined only | | inspectors | celved from Mr. Cain he states that th | Best Ranch Eggs...

Judge Heacock has thirty cases on his calendar awalting trial, and they will be disposed of whenever the at- torneys are ready to corge into court.
