A DISAPPOINTED FAKER JILE as has been the course of the Examiner \ many a year, it has rarely ever shown its spite in a meaner way than it did yesterday in its flaunts and sneers at Judge Bahrs in commenting his decision in the Fresno rate case. Evidently vpor the Examiner desired the Judge to give a decision in favor of the Southern Pacific Company in order that it might have a chance to use it as a part of the am- munition it intends to employ in the coming cam- paign. The decision, being in favor of the law and the people, left the Examiner no opportunity to make political capital out of it, and in a freak of spite the yellow journal turned upon the Judge. Having no grounds for attack, 1t set about inventing them. Falsehood was substituted for fact, and the Judge, instead of being commended, was held up for public of making cut a case against the court the Examiner said: “Judge Bahrs assigned the case to himself. It should have been heard and decided within a week. But after holding it for months Judgs Bahrs has found himself, like the Railroad Commis- , unable to uphold the company, and has issued the injunction prayed for by the Attorney General.” The statement that the Judge found himself unable to uphold the company carries with it the insinuation that he would have upheld the company had he been able to do so, and is worth noting as an ‘illustration of the Examiner’s method of suggesting lies it is afraid to tell. However, there are a good many lies it is not afraid to print, and one of them is contained in the assertion that the case was held by the Judge The case was submitted to Judge Bahrs Thus it not for monthe, but for less than one month. for months on May 31 and was decided on June 27 was hi Under the law the Judge had ninety days in which to give decision, and the decision was given in less than thirty The charge of the Examiner is, however, more unjust than appears on the surface. Since the case was submitted Judge Bahrs has held court in two de- partments, and therefore has had an extra pressure | of business upon him. The case as submitted con- teined upward of seventy-five citations, each of which | had to be examined in the interests of justice, and the work consequently could not be hurriedly Finally, as an evidence of a desire to give the deci- sion as promptly as was commensurate with the care | due to its importance, it is to be noted the Judge ad- vanced it ahead of ffteen other important cases on the calendar. Here. then, in the record is ample proof that Judge Bahre, co far from trying to hold the case back, actually did all in his power to hasten it, and, in fact, did hasten it to such an extent that the . promptness of the decision is one of the features of the case which most merits public commendation. In the scope of the politics of a free country there | must be room for the foulness of foul minds to vent | itself. There must be sewers to carry off the ordure of the city, and there must be an Examiner to serve 2s 2 conduit for the ordure of Democratic politics. Still the sewers are not left open to the air, nor is it permitted to any one to spatter the filth of them upon the public. Examiner to vent its dirty politics upon clean men. What has been done in this mean assault agains: Judge Bahrs is 2 warning of what may be expected during the whole course of the coming campaign, and | it is therefore well to direct public attention to the | offense at once, so that the community may be on guard hereafter. At a meeting in a2 woman's gonvention in Mil- waukee the other day there was more racket than the cheir could suppress with the gavel, so-the president czme down to the front of the platform and told the ladies they were “acting like a set of men.” and im- mwediately the convention became as good as pie. Admiral Schley is convinced that he has won a place in American history superior to any that a political office could give him. It is gratifying that Admiral Dewey’s spectacular performances taught at lezst some lessons. B The ex-convict who conceived a notion the other day that he could thrash two policemen and was taken to the Receiving Hospital for repairs is prob- 2bly convinced that some respect must be paid to the mziesty of the law.

THE NEW DIPLOMACY. ments the bosses w [ HINA has agreed that American Consuls may C communicate directly with provincial Viceroys in regard to the protection of foreigners, witih the assurance that as long as a Viceroy will see that they are not molested foreign troops will not be landed in his province The Viceroy of Shantung has notified foreigners dwelling intand that he cannot protect them. There is no question of the wisdom of this arrange- ment to have direct communication, without the roundabout appeal to the central government. But while we are present with an armed force in China te protect Americans and other foreigriers there, and are killing and being killed, taking potluck with pot- shots with the other Christian powers, it is highly desirable that we show ourselves at home thoroughly dexoted to the principle we are shooting into China. | There are places in this country where Chinese are not tolerated. To appear means death to them. This antipathy to Asiatic foreigners extends to the Japan- | ese. On the same day that we shot our way into Tientsin neck and neck with the British two hundred Americans at Keswick, Cal., expelled twenty-five slaughter and penalty of death if they return to fin- ish the work they had zgreed to do. Is the Governor of California, like the Governor of Shantung, unable | to protect foreigners inland in this State? Is the rule of consular communication double-ended and recip- rocal, and should the Japanese Consul appeal directly te the Governor of Czlifornia and land troops here if he fail to protect these foreigners? . These Asiatics are intensely disliked here. Does it not occur to us that Americans and other Caucasian foreigners are just as intensely disliked in China? Racial prejudice is a mutual aversion. How can we expect genial friendship and affection from the Asiatics in their country when we make no effort to | hide our hatred of them in our country? | In the worldwide hurly-burly that holds the center | of the stage just now the Keswick incident is likely to | escape notice. But we note it as a sign of the times. We were first to warn the country that such scenes State. It was inevitable. about it? Does our Government intend to furnish an ! army to protect every gang of Japanese and Chiness laborers? If it do not, then we should at once with- draw our troops from China and cease insisting that that Government must give armed protection to Americans within its jurisdiction. It will be seen that the issue raised is one of race distinction and classification. It is far-reaching. When it was raised | by Mr. Richardson and Senator Short in The Cali a few months since, in discussing our racial contacts in the Philippines, no one dreamed that it would have such a speedy and startling illustration. Richard Croker is among us again and insists that the Mayor of New York must not be considered guilty of official corruption in connection with the ice trust until proof be submitted. In the light of re- | cent developments it would be interesting to know what Croker considers proof. When Lord Salisbury sneered away a suggestion | that the representatives of the powers had been mas- sacred in the Chinese capital he had at least one con- | solation. He was not in Peking. American troops® have again fallen to death “on | oriental soil. The murder of the American marines | in China may serve as one of the lessons of the mean- ing of an open door to the Orient. — ‘Washington naval authorities are undecided as to which of fwo types of battleships to award the palm of superiority. It is to be hoped that both will stand the test of any foe. The situation in China has, by common consent of the powers. reversed the old adage that no news is good news. In this world erisis no news is emphati- cally the worst news.

HEN The Call some time ago made an expo- sure of the extent to which the scavengers of H Wthe city violated the law requiring them ; have a proper cover upon their carts and wagons, a | pronfise was made of immediate reform. The police { at the time made several arrests, and it was believed | the nuisance and the menace to health of carrying the | refuse of the city through the streets in open vehicles ‘wuuld be permanently abated. It now appears the | promise has been unfulfilled, and the popular expecta- | tion of reform has been disappointed. The scaven- | gers, like so many other violators of law who are | confronted with a demand for its enforcement, simply | made a seeming compliance at the time and then | waited for the storm to blow over so that they could | resume the old offense. Such being the condition of affairs, it is gratifying | that Chief Sullivan has resolved to permit no further delay in the enforcement of the law. He has issued an order to the police that beginning on Monday, :July 2, the ordinances and orders of the city relating to the subject “are to be strictly and rigidly enforced.” | The order declares: “All wagons used in the trans- portation of garbage must be lined with zinc, sheet | iron or other metallic substance and shall be water- | tight; and the covers must be of oiled canvas and be securely fastened at all times, except when garbage is being put into the carts, and must be on whether | the carts are loaded or empty.” There are about 300 scavenger wagons in the city, and it is estimated that more than 100 of them have not been fitted in accordance with the law. More- over, even among those that have been provided with covers there is still a tendency to evade the purpose of the law. Thus the Chief states in his order: “I | kave noticed of late wagons going through the streets | garbage they had placed barrels extending above the top of the wagon, over which they placed the covers. This must not be. permitted. The top of the barrel must not at any time extend above the top of the wagon.” | The evils resulting from this particular violation of law hardly need to be pointed out. The odors emanating from uncovered scavenger wagons pass- ing along the streets are among the worst offenses that can be committed against a decent community, but there is, furthermore, a serious danger to health | in permitting refuse, which frequently contains dis- ease germs, to be openly exposed to the air that thousands of people breathe. All of these evils are well understood, and there will be a cordial approval of the actions of the police in enforcing the law by the arrest of every offender seen upon the streets. e —— cf Central New York have found out they can rid their trees of all kinds of pests by the simple expe. dient of having a brass band march round the orchard playing ragtime melodies; and now we can or liars, they have in that section. Secretary of the Navy Long says that what we need in China is men, not ships. This may be taken as an authoritative announcement that whateyer else our navy can do it cannot go overland. ity It is little wonder that Sousa's ragtime melodies have become a popular rage in Paris.

There were no trees nearer than a village fifteen miles away, whence the tracks seemed to lead. The leaf smelled of beer. This signified that It had been used with others to stop the mouth of a pot of beer and had blown away.” He goes on to say that the wives of Boer soldiers are accustomed to carry beer to their lords and masters and that he soon found the party of Boers in such a state of intoxication that he could easily find out what he wanted. According to this famous scout and hero the Boer women carried a pot of beer large enough to intoxicate a party of Boer soldlers, as he designates them. As a former resident of this country I wish to say_that there are no leaves in Matabe- land large enough to cover such beer pots, and although the Dutch and Germans are supposed to drink beer continually, the Boers do not use beer and do not know how to make it. But the point the hero- scout is trying to make is that the Boer women are brutes and that the Boers | B s m;om It is asserted that the orchard men of the fruit belt | FiPess ! place to starvation, and only when a form some sort of estimate as to what kind of bands, | aiiE the- people Jof- At ‘cauntry themselves are drunken sots, and when speaking about lords and masters he tries to convey the idea that the husbands of the Boer ladies treat thelr wives as slaves. To judge from these extracts of this book the contents could only be digested by jingo Englishmen. Anglomaniacs_and Englich boys under 10 years of age. When in the beginning of the war the Boers went through Bechuanaland to round up the cattle of the chartered company (the only source of revenue the company has with which to gage dividend on a capital of £27,000,000) the heroic Baden-Powell, in- defending that fimperty. crawled like a rat in a hole in Mafeking, thereby exposing the women and children of that su- erfor force from two sides arrived did e dare to show himself. Now he is es- tablished as a hero all over the world by the versatile English war cor! ondents, while to those who know South Africa Baden- Powell appears from his book on “Scout- ing” as a contemptible cur and not as a gentleman and a brave officer, and as a + coward from his record so far in this war.
