B — In all the hurly-burly of the Chinese uproar it is worth noting that old Li Hung Chang has obtained | the decoratiom of the “Square Dragon,” and now he is not proud of his peacock feather any more, nor does he spend much time in contemplating his y. ‘ ellow jacket. —_— Roberts’ dispatch describing the attack made on General Botha announces that aiter watching the fight for some time he “hurried back” to Pretoria to get news from Methuen, so it appears old Kruger is not the only man in South Africa who has to hustle. The Chinese Minister at Washington says that he hears but very little from his home Government. This is very readily explained on the ground that his home Government is industriously engaged at present in sawing wood and watching for a soft spot to drop. American Consuls in China, it appears, are en= larging their sphere of uscfulness in a way that sug- gests that some of them will soon enjoy the pleas- ures of private life. They have been caught selling arms to the Filipinos. The St. Louis car riots may have none of the spec- tacular features of war, but they certainly possess all of war's deadly results. In a recent encounter more American lives were lost than in the capture of Ma- nila. _— Paris is passing through another revolution.

P to the time that England announced her in- | U tention to force a passage from Tientsin to | Peking the casualties to foreigners in China, by the Boxer riots, were less in number than the lynch- | ings of Chinese and Italians in the United States, by | mobs. Only our capability for defense protected us | against just such a raid as we are invited to join against China. The pretext of murder and violence was more aggravated in our case than in hers. It is evident that Europe is hot for conquest and prey. Ii the predatory nations were not afraid of each other, the carving would be in progress now. | We desire to go upon record that it is not to the in- | terest of the world’s peace nor the happiness of its | people that China be partitioned and its polity dis- turbed. The opening of that country to the world has not paid a dividend. tion has made its people absolutely nan-ass le. They go forth justified by the fact that opening their country to the o them. But wherever they and national charac- world opened the wo appear they retain every raci teristic. Stubbornly resisting change, they add no fresh current to any national life, in a physical sense. They abide everywliere, a foreign substance in the body of the nation they invade. But while this is true | of them abroad from their own country, it is also true of Caucasians in China. Our race takes on neither character nor strength from any Chinese contact. Such a nation should be let alone. It should be per- mitted to adopt, in its own time and way, the dfs- coveries and applications of art and science to econo- mic purposes, which so largely make up the form and substance of Western civilization. In the first place, to attempt the substitution of the industrial system of China will produce results appall- ing to the world.. The subjection of industry to manual processes there is consistent with the im- mense population which must earn food. The intro- duction of our labor-aiding mechanical devices would obsolete the labor and take away ail hope of sup- | port of two hundred and fifty millions of people, at { least. We are disquieted now by the Indian famine, but it will be remembered as a feast and season of | displacement of the existing industrial system. Again, such policy would at last react upon the rld.. That human hive, which sends out but small swarms to afflict wherever they light, if driven in des- | peration to live after its industrial foundations are | nged, will swarm no more, but will flood the world | h its products at a labor cost on a par with the | e price of existence. Then Chinese industrial dis- | will spread to the natigns which have brought it upon her. The United States will do well to keep out of the gathering of nations now on Chinese soil ‘and ex- pressing their horror at the mote in the Chinese eye, | for which ti *e no cure but a dastardly attack | upc h has a beam in its own eye, | but it is a civilized and ristian beam.

He is aware that when the Chinese become too thick in this country or in the British | colonies it is the practice to thin them out with a | gun, or, as we did in Wyoming, by burning them in | lots of 250 at a time, like rats in a strawstack. As | the Boxer, instead of renting a pew, bows down to wood and stone, he does not understand that these thinning processes arz the prerogative of Christian nations orily, so he begins a career of rank imitation | of our methods, whereupon the Christian nations | land marines and machine-guns and proceed to pun- ish him, oblivious that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It is to be hoped that this country will notify the assembled buzzards that will not take a claw in the business. We have enough laying upom our con- science nnw,‘unaésimilmed, without overloading it with any more of the same sort of folly. We should refuse to join the hungry flock that has impudently proposed to organize a planetary trust in govern- ment and permit no nation to exist without its con- sent. A DEMAND FOR BIGGER WARSHIPS. XTRAORDINARY projects are reported.to be E under consideration by the British Admiralty. | Experts have advised the construction of bat- | tleships upon a scale of magnitude far surpassing | anything yet undertaken in that direction. The argu- | ment is that as Great Britain, by reason of her widely scattered colonies, must have war vessels with a larger coal capacity than those of other nations, it is im- perative that she now enter upon the construction of 2 number of such vessels equal in capacity and size to the Oceanic and other huge passenger steamers of the Atlantic. The advocates of the plan assert that large vessels will have an advantage over smaller ones not only in steaming capacity, but also in defensive strength and fighting force. It is said that by doubling the size of the present battieships the new ones would be able to carry three times the thickness and weight of armor, and would require only 50 per cent additional weight and space for engines, boilers and fuel to at- tain to the same speed as the existing ironclad. They could carry a considerably increased nuinber of heavy guns capable of sinking vessels of inferior type. They would have a much stronger platform and greater stability than ironclads of the present day. They would probably double their gun power and immeas- urably improve their defensive power, while the ad- dition to the crew and the increased cost of keep would be only from 50to 60 per cent over that of exist- ing vessels. The number of watertight compartments would be on the whole increased. The confidence of the crew in working their guns would be enhanced, as the men would know that the ship was proof against perforation by gun fire. The arguments appear to be valid, and Great Brit- ain has mbney enough appropriated for the navy to justify the Admiralty in constructing at least one of the huge ships by way of experiment. If the result should justify the expectations of the advocates of | navies all over the world. What the limit will be no l G | be an exposition of the | boundless wealth and unlimited resources of Califor- | sources and industries.” | State of such varied resources that a display of the | Oregon has been to strengthen David Bennett Hill’s man can say. Perhaps warships may some day be- come so big they cannot enter the average harbor, and then the nations will have to alter the world so as to make it fit the ships THE MIKADO TAKES ACTION. EPORTS from Washington announce that in- R formation has been received by the adminis- tration that the Japanese Government has is- sued an order designed to restrict emigration to the United Statés and to Canada. The “action is said to be due to the fact that the influx of the lower class of Japanese into this country and British Columbia has aroused antagonism, and the Government fears that if it be not checked the results will be injurious to the trade of Japan and the interests of the better classes of her people. According to the reports the order of restriction provides “that an average of only five persons may emigrate to the United States in one month from any | of the forty-seven prefectures in Japan. The same order was put into effect in regard to Canada, except that double that number will be allowed to go to the Dominion from each prefecture. *In order to prevent cmigrants to Canada from crossing the border into the United States and thus evading the intention of the law it is announced that the Japanese Govern- ment will inaugurate a system of examinations at ports of debarkation, if it be found that the spirit of | the order is evaded.” . The promulgation of such an order to go into effect at once is of course highly gratifying to the United States and relieves the administration of what threat- ened to be a vexatious problem of diplomacy. Ever since the exposure made by The Call of the extent to which Japanese immigration to the Pacific Coast had developed it has been recognized that something should be‘done to put a stop to the evil. The only way by which a remedy could be applied was by arranging a new treaty with Japan under which a Japanese exclusion act might be enacted on lines similar to that which excludes the Chinese. Had the Government of the Mikado interposed objections to such a new treaty considerable time would have | elapsed before we could have overcome them, or by summarily denouncing the treaty leave Congress free | to interpose restriction on such terms as it choose. The action of the Japanese Government solves the problem by providing for restriction at once, and in | satisfactory. By promptly conforming to the desires of the United States on this question the Japanese officials evidence of that sagacious statesmahship which within a few years has raised Japan from the rank of a comparatively barbarian state to be one of the strongest empires of the world. to every influence of civilization, and guided by wise leaders. Her Government has shown itself capable of matic skill in avoiding complications that might have made enemies out of a people naturally disposed to be friendly. B S THE JUBILEE CELEBRATION. 'AND MARSHAL COSTELLO in a circular to th. Native Sons has set forth an excellent | plan for g. “ng a distinctive form to the cele- bration of the fiftieth anniversary of the admission of California to statéhood.

California is a characteristic industries of the different sections would not be in the least monotonous, and that fact in it- self is worth impressing upon the public. Should the various counties or districts of any other State of the Union undertake an industrial parade there would be only a long procession of floats showing corn or wheat or cotton, according to the State where the celebration was held. In California, however, there can and will be displayed a wide diversity of exhibits, ranging from gold-bearing quartz to orange groves, from the lumber of giant redwoods to raisins and wine. It is a fortunate coincidence that the semi-centennial of the State corresponds with a year of abounding prosperity. The people are in a humor for public and popular rejoicing. The festival of commemoration will come as a pleasant break in the Presidential campaign and giye all parties a chance to rid their minds of panis£ rivalries for a time and make a joint floliday of loyalty and’ State patriotism. Every prospect for a rousing celebration is propitious, and it is to be hoped that every good suggestion concern- ing it will be cordially approved and carried out.

H. Voorhies, 2111 California street, has fallen from grace. Callaghan is an Bnglishman 27 years of age, and before coming to this country had served some years in the Eleventh Hussars, a crack British cavalry regi- ment. His military training did not de- tract from his value as a butler until an unkind fate placed in his way a tempta- tion that was irresistible. On Tuesday night the Voorhies resi- dence was ablaze with light and sounds of gayety issued from windows and doors. The occasion was the wedding of Leila, the daughter of the house, to Lieutenant Guy Scott of the artillery. It was a grand function and Callaghan, the English but- ler, was in his glory. While the wedding supper was being served Butler Callaghan took occasion to freely sample the champagne and other liquors and as a result became somewhat exhilarated.

He wore full regimentals, the suit hav- ing been made for the occasion, and after disrobing and donning citizen's attire he concluded that his brilliant uniform would be safer in the butler's room till he re-| quired it again than elsewhere. In this he_ was mistaken. Callaghan after performing his trying duties as_butler, made more so by the wine he had imbibed, went to his bed- room. His eyes fell upon the regimental suit of the groom and his old military spirit burned within him. Just for the sake of old times he dressed himself in the suit and was so pleased with the ef- fect that he decided to play the soldier once again and have a rollicking time. He went downtown and made a night of it_In all the glory of gold and tinsel. Early in the morning the butler took | a California-street car to return to the | Voorhies home.

He got off the car in front of the house and staggered in. About 9 o'clock, as he did not appear at breakfast, the bride's brother made an investigation and discovered him asleep in bed. He had discarded the coat, but thas was all. He was roused from his slumbers and made to take off the trou- sers. He raised such a row that Police- man Coughran called in and Cal- laghan was placed under arrest for mali- clous m: ef and disturbing the peace. He was unable to obtain bail and re- | mained in prison. Callaghan denied that he had worn the suit and hinted that some one out of spite had thrown an old suit into his bed- room and had put up a job on him. - When told that the gripman and conductor had een him he was not so positive, but de- lined to say where he K.‘Ad be It is the buttons and epaulettes to some women in the “tenderloin™ or some young men about town had taken advantage of his drunken condition to spoil his uniform.
