HEN will the Commissioners to the Philippines Wget down to the business on which they are | sent, get down cut of the air, on to the ground, |and do something to end there a military situation | which is getting more rank every day with a greater | odium than made Spain offensive? The reports mul- | tiply that from officers down to privates the soldiers | are the lords of life aund death. The massacres that take place are sickening. The only law seems to be the code of Attila, the Hun, lex talionis. In re- | taliation the innocent are mowed down and towns are | : razed to the ground. It was to end all this that the | last commission went out. But little, and that unim- portant, has been heard of its doings. It has discov- | ered the ecclesiastical land tenure, but makes no proposition concerning it. - The Spanish friar issue has been presented to it, but no solution is proposed. Exclusion of the Chinese has been asked for by the natives, but no action is taken. Now be it known that the practical, burning questions in the islands are three in*number. They are: Land tenure, the | friars, the Chinese. These were principally the cause | | of the revolution against Spain in 1806, which ended | with the treaty of Biacbatano. Spain promised to | settle these issues in the interest of the native pepple | and broke her word. | When the commission takes up these questions the end of the long misery may be in sight. | But is it taking them up? If so, the most remark- able reticence is shown by it. It procured the a:- rangement of a fete in Manila to celebrate the am- | nesty proclamation, and nobody attended. | The latest information of the doings of the com- mission comes to the public by the way of Berkeley, | Cal. President Benjamin Ide Wheeler of the State University enlarges a letter from Professor Bernard | Moses of that institution, who is a member of the commission. Professor Moses says: iFrom observations already made I am inclined to ink that we shall find among the young people of the islands a large number of eager and competent students, and I hope some arrangement may be made by which, from time to time, a goodly number may be sent to the schools of America. It may, perhaps, be found advisable to render some of them assistance from public funds. It is quite likely that in this way we can help to bring the people of these islands to appreciate somewhat the civilization of the United States, and to mark the difference between America | Professor Moses is a philosopher and student. He | has arranged to take a census in the islands, and his | colleague in the faculty, Professor Plehn, is going take it.

The terms of com- | | parison must be equal. Our deeds in the islands must be compared with Spain’s, and the home life of Spain with ours concern in selecting good Judges than any other peo- ple. Moreover, all experience proves that it is not easy to obtain fit men for such offices. Over and over again litigants—and, indeed, whole communi- ties—have suffered by reason of a Judge incompetent or lacking in integrity. Out of that experience can be learned the lesson which the Republicans of San Francisco are now called upon to ‘apply to the case before them. The terms of five Superior Judges expire in Janu- ary, 1901. To their positions Judges are to be elected this year. Each party will of course nominate can- didates for them all. To that extent the issue 15 a partisan one, but no further. Intelligent voters will not permit party considerations to affect their action in voting for Judges. All that a party can do with respect to such offices is to nominate candi- dates. It lies in the power of Republicans to refuse a renomination to Judge Bahrs and Judge Belcher, | but such a refusal will cost thé party dear. These men on the Bench have borne themselves worthily; they have won the confidence'and the esteem of men of all parties, and it is not too much to say that the better class of citizens of all parties expect their renomina- tion. This is one of the duties the party owes to the city that must not be overiooked. R maia e THE CHINATOWN SCANDAL. NCE more the old story from Chinatown. O The charges against Police Sergeant Mahoney and his squad and the sergeant’s indignant de- nial of them are but repetitions of tales with which the people of San Francisco have been familiar for years. Policemen come and policemen go in China- town, but the familiar story runs on from year to year with hardly a change except that of the names. Why try to make a sensation out of the reappear- ance of the old scandal? It has become “a twice told Iice sergeant who accepts the Chinatown detail might as well bid a long farewell to his reputation. Whether he do good or do evil he will have enemies, and they will start the old story of blackmail and corruption. He that handles pitch will be defiled, and he that serves in Chinatown cannot escape the Chinatown stink. Wherefore praise is to be given to the two members of Mahoney's squad who some time ago asked to be relieved irom further service in the dis- trict. They are wise men in their generation, and are now enjoying the benefits of their discretion by being able to stand at a safe distance from the fire while watching their companions on the grill. Out of the reappearance of the scandal there can- not come a sensation, but the people can_if they choose draw from it a moral containing an important lesson. The Chinatown scandals are not due to any fault of the police squads that patrol the district. They are the inevitable result of the conditions that prevail’ in Chinatown, and those conditions are due to the fact that the officials of the city permit the property- owners of the district to maintain their premises in a manner that renders them breeding-houses of vice and crime and disease. Clean Chinatown. it thoroughly. , day. That is the moral of the situation to as it has been that of the situation for years past. Why make a great disturbance about a petty fantan game here, a lottery swindle there. or any other bit of tithorn gambling, when the whole district needs puri- fication? What will be the good of discrediting a policeman or two and sending a few Chinese gam- blers to jail to be maintained at the expense of the taxpayers? No such straining out of gnats will do any good to a community that is prepared to swallow the whole camel of Chinatown. It would be like ap- plying a salve to an irritation of the skin in order te cure a disease of the blood. The evil that is now made the occasion of a com- plaint against the police, like that which gave rise to the quarantine, is the result of tolerating in China- town a persistent and well-nigh universal violation of the laws of the municipality. Compel the owners of Chinatown property to obey the sanitary regulations | of the city, require them to clean their premises and keep them clean, forbid them to permit on their property any of those foul apartments, secret pas- sages and underground tunnels, that not only encour- age vice but afford :o the vicious a means of esca; { ing detection and evading pursuit, and a-long step will have been taken toward the suppression of the offenses of which there are now so many and such just complaints. :y It is the duty of the Board of Health and of the Chief of Police to enforce the health ordinances of Clean it up, clean it out, clean | The Professor-Commissioner will see at once that | the city.

When it comes to a competition of civilizations the red ribbon is worth all sorts of expense, and if it be | <o very important that we get the verdict of the Fili- | pinos in our favor we should spare neither pains nor expense, for there is a growing suspicion that our civilization needs indorsement. We have in the midst of us about seven millions and a half of illiterate negroes, our former slaves and their descendants, and as many more illiterate whites | of our own race. These are the lees in the wine of our | civilization, and there be philosophers who say that | we have no need to capture islanders seven thousand | miles away to educate at our expense whilé there is such a goodly number of our own people who don’t know B from bullsfoot. | | G ries in any community, and accordingly when | after the test of long service on the bench a | man has been found worthy of the judicial office, an | intelligent seli-interest on the part of the community | will prompt the public to retain him in office rather than to dismiss him for the sake of a new aspirant, no matter how pleasing such aspirant may be. In the interests of the community, therefore, the Republi- cans should renominate Judges Belcher and Bahrs for re-election. Their terms of office are about to ex- pire. The Republican party placed them on the bench and it alone can retain them there. The responsibility of re-electing them rests therefore primarily upon Republicans, and should not be shirked upon any ex- cuse whatever. | It is hardly necessary to point out to the people of San Francisco how essential to the welfare of all it is to have on the bench men who have not only a comprehensive knowledge of law, but that impar- tiality of temperament and that firmness of character which are necessary to enable a Judge to withstand the bias of partisanship or the pressure of outside in- fluences in giving decisions in whatever cases come before them. Under our system of government the | | courts are more important than under that of any other country, for they are called upon not merely to enforce the law but to pass upon the validity of acts of the Legislature, and thus detennine‘ the natyre of the law they enforce. Consequently we have a greater FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD. 0OOD Judges are not so plentiful as blackber- Why have they neglected that duty? is so much zeal displayed against a pack of petty fan- tan rascals while nothing is done ‘ainst the property- owners whose violations of the law are gross, flagrant and menacing to the whole community? What is the good of changing the Chinatown squad, when it is Chinatown itself that should be changed? Once more we appeal to the Grand Jury to take up this matter. Neither the Board of Health nor the Chief of Police shows any intention or even an incli- nation to act. It is therefore imperative that the Grand Jury should take action. The people are not going to be deceived by a raid against fantan men. They are going to ask this question: If the toleration of fantan justifies a suspicion that the members of the Chinatown squad have taken bribes, what is to be the deduction from the fact that the Board of Health and the Chief of Police tolerate the violation of law on the part of the rich men who own China- town property? ‘ . ey ea— One significant fact seems to prove that the accu- sation is false that the people of Salinas have re- sorted to the firebrand in their Chinese quarter to avenge Boxer outrages. There is nothing to indi- cate that the people of Salinas have gone insane. Sl T The local Health Board is to be congratulated at least upon its unexampled impudence. After the pub- lic had registered a final verdict of conviction and con- demnation the board files with the Supervisors a plea of not guilty of the plague outrage. The row between the Board of Education and Su- perintendent of Schools Webster has at least one merit. It cannot make greater the demoralization which the absurd policy of the board has already worked in the schools. The Bryanites are striving in ‘every way to incite labor disturbances on a mammoth scale. They forget that intelligent voters will not believe that trouble for trouble’s sake,will bring prosperity from a false peace. Wiy —_— The recént quarrel between two police officers at one of the local stations had at least one merit.

You state the facts with accuracy when you say | that California wines, bearing French, la- | bels, were denied the right of competi- | tion, and you draw correct inferences as to the deleterious effect of this decision upgn the reputation of our wines in the commercial world. The declaration goes forth as a ‘sweeping denunciation of the | entire California wine product. It is the equivalent of declaring that California does not make wine, but that it is en-| gaged In the practice of counterfeiting the wines made by other countries; that the wine of California is not a natural prod- | uct of its soils and its climates; that these soils and climates are not adapted to viticulture: hence the vineyardists are simply counterfeiting the products of oth- er countries, falsifying the types of wines in France and felonlously labeling this counterfelt production with well establish ed brands in order to give these imita- tions acceptance at the hands of the com- mercial world. B While your inferences are accurately drawn, your conclusions justifiable, your condemnation ef the juries of award is somewhat more severe than the facts of the case warrant. The juries had before them the wines of various classifications. For illustra- | tion, the Burgundy wine of California was placed beside the Burgundy wines of France. A member of the jury who Is a resident of the Burgundy district, France, said that the Burgundles from California were good wines, palatable and sound. He himself liked them and used them, but they were not the true Burgundy type. If they had been pre- | sented as California wines, if the labels had been a declaration of the facts with- out the possibility of deception, if the ap- pearance of counterfeit and imitation had been absent, the wines would have been considered on their merit. They were not presented as California wines, but as Burgundy wines. 1 This objection applies to all the wlnc!“ B S T B T R S i from California bearing French labels and placed on_exhibition under French names. It Is true these labels declared them to be a California product. but m‘ the same time it declared them to be Bur- gundy wine, not “California wine, Bur- gundy type.” Suppose fruit, the varieties of which | had originated in California, was placed | on exhibition at the Pan-American FEx- position next vear at Buffalo. Suppose, | further, that this fruit, bearing a Califor- nia name, San Jose, Vacaville, Los An- geles or Riverside, declaring itself to be | San Jose fruit, Vacaville fruit or River-| be from the same specific orchard. from | these places. which, in fact, had been grown in New Jersey, South America or Canada, and of Inferior quality to the | fruit of California. Would the people of | | ered by juries of award upon their merits, | California endure with patience this coun- | terfeit presentation? In the markets of the world the genuine California fruit and its imitation would stand together. The 1d confound these names, oblivious of the fact that the name of the inferior fruit had been adopted mere- | Iy because the fruit resembled in type | t raised in California. It is obvious | that these fruits would stand related to | ch other before a jury of award as a | genuine and a counterfeit. One would be | real and the other an imitation. The | California variety would be the original | brand, seeking to establish ftself through- | out the world upon its merit. The other would be the same brand covering infe- | rior goods and injurious to the reputation of -the brand itself. If oranges were exposed for sale in New | yrk, Rome, Cuba or Florida, upon the | e contaiping which was inscribed “Riverside Navels,” that would be a | highly different inscription from the dec- laration that these oranges resembled Riverside navels, or belonged to that type. In the first instance, if they were inferior, they woud Injure the brand. In the sec- | ond instance, ihe inscription would pay | tribute to the superlority of the brand imitated. The member of the jury of award from | the Burgundy district, already quoted, de- -lared that if the labels upon the wines had been removed and in the absence of names numbers nad been used, as for in- stance, “California wine, Burgundy type, No. 12" the wine would have been per- mitted to compete upon its merit. | As it Is, a jury of award in a tourna- ment as broad as the productive capac- ity of the world, has practically decided that the wines of Callfornia are not wines, but are merely attempted imi- tations, consclously and purposely coun- terfeiting the brands of France, Germany and Switzerland. This should have been foreseen by the honorable commissioners from California and guarded against. It was competent at all times to have obtained a fair con- sideration of the merit of the California product, to have received such awards as the merits of our wines would have justi- fied, and have attached these awards to the particular brand of wine receiving them. The French authorities have been more than fair; even hospitably accom- odating. No difficulty whatever would have been encountered in so adjusting this matter that the wines of California, as | California wine, would have been consid- | Hundreds of wine experts have tasted the | California wines brought here and have pronounced them of excellent quality. Many of these have declared to me that there 1s a vast market for these wines in Europe and throughout the world: but they have uniformly objected to having these wines go into the channels of com- merce under names which would confound them with the original brands of wine. If their quality had been decidedly superior to that of the same brands of wine origi- nating here in France, in Germany, or in Switzerland, the absence of all objection would have been easily apprehended; but every one who nas visited France can testify that the cxported article, of wines and beers at least, is Inferior to the do- mestic article. Wines made In France for export purposes are uniformly fortified. It is scarcely necessary to say to any one skilled in the production or In the care of wines that when they are exported they pass under conditions of variableness of temperature, conditions of cellarage, of movement, of agitation, which are liable to deterforate their quality. l i : e o e o e e ’ : California Wines at the Paris Expositio "' rS - L e g S S Sl e i o e o It may be asgerted that we do not know the Chateaux Yquem wine in America as it is known in France, or, in other words, the Chateaux Yquem wine in France, sold here for domestic consumption. is vastly superior %o the same brand consumed in foreign countries. 1 beg to emphasize the statement that a judicious anticipation of these difficulties would have avolded the injurious verdict of the exposition authorities. I trust you will pardon the intrusion of one other matter, which possesses broader general interest. Awards are not mac with reference wholly to the value of the article presented. The conditions of pro- duction are considered; the rate of wages paid; the healthfulness of the occupation; the purchasing power of the wagesepaid production of the article; the treatment of the labor with reference to ' the conservation of life and of aceldents. If an article was presented In competi- tion with other articles of the same class and which was itself the product of slave labor it would not be permitted to enter the competition because of the s industrial feature attending its tion. This will perhaps be bett stood by eciting a specific Williams & Co.’s Drop-forging Works of Brooklyn, N. Y., claimed the grand prize in the iron product on the ground of the treatment of their employes. Their product is equally good with other articles in competition. They claim superiority in many things— the healthfulness of their shops, the ven- tilation of the apartments occupied by workmen, the care taken to prevent ac dents to workmen by using only the most perfect and safest machinery, the estab- lishment of fire escapes, of a perfect fire drill, guaranteeing their workmen against a disaster from fire, the rate of wages pald, the conveniences and comfort of the workmen during working hours, the san- ftary condition of the shops and the op- portunities foc promotion among their em- ployes. These are conditions precedent to ase. WILLIAM H.

She has paiq this tribute to the nobility of labor. This pol- city, Hart Wood, from a dozen well-knewn architects of long experience and train- icy elevates and dignifies the entire expo- sition. Every exhibitor is handed a blank form, which when properly filled expresses all conditions having reference to the rights of labor employed in the production of any article. It is a noble conception that the product of slave labor will not be per- mitted even a place in this world's exposi- tion. That product which comes into ex- istence in utter disregard of the rights of man is not recognized as having any illus- trative value In the industrial worid, and this better view has attended all the ex- positions held in France, Suppose we had applied these conditions | to the production of wine in California.
