Rad Bacon.

France and England are excluding
our bacon almost entirely now, and
il is said to be not so much on &C
count Of Trichine as il Is on account
Of spoilt and absolutely rotten pork
that is shipped to those countries.
Since the heavy foreign demand and
high prices there has not been we'll
cured bacon enough 10 supply the
demand. 1t is said that in about
forty-eight hours, by using patent
appliances that packers can take a
hog andmake it into bacon. While
this bacon will keep in the home
market, where it is carefully han.
died and shipped around and dis
tributed in comparatively small
quantities, it will not do to bulk it
down in the hold of a ship to under.
go a long sea voyage. 1t is this new
and imperfectly cured bacon, in ad-
dition to the fact that many sick and
diseased hogs are slaughtered, that
has caused the trouble. 1t is pro,
posed now that the principal slaugh.
tering cities establish more strict
inspection Of their own to prevent
any unsonnd hog from being slaugh.
tered, this together with a foreign
inspection will probably effect a re.
moyal Of the prohibition.

star Route Combination.

Chicago, 2.-7ribune's Washington:
It has been published on what ia believed
TO be reliable authority, that q syndicate
or combination has been formed to secure
control of the large star routes in the
west, known as the October lettings, by
buying off lowest bidders where the con-
tract has been awarded, or by mem bers
Of the syndicate bidding at various sums
on the routes and then the lower ones de-
Ginning the contract until government
is forced to pay large sum for the per-
Torrance of the work and an immense
profit to thu com biRation. The scheme
has:Ialready become known at the post
Office departmen and is exciting consid-
cradle discussion. It is stated that there
is not at present any law to protect gov
eminent against such frauds, but that as
soon as possible after the assembling of
Congress an effort will be made to have
q law passed giving the postmaster gen.
eral. or his second assistant the peremp.
tory power on discovery of any indica-
cation Of fraud, to annul contract aud
place temporary service on the route,
and advertise for g new contract. The
department intends to fight and break
up, if possible, any such com bination.

THE BOTCHED TREATY.

Ifthere was any doubt in the minds of the
American people regarding the superiority OF
the Chinese diplomats over the representa-.
tives Of the United States, perusal of the
new treaty with China will forever set the
question at rest. In every material point the
tact and cunning of the Mongol shows itself
alongside the perfect stupidity and inefficien-
cy Of our American representatives. The in
strument of which so much was expected
turns out to be numbering document, clog
ged with mass of verbiage, which, from what
little of real meaning can be extracted, simply
grants additional protection to the Chinese in
America, and in no way provides for any
check to the influx of as many more China
men as the Empire of the Orient may chose
to send.
Article first of the treaty, supposed ~ rogu-
late Chinese emigration, brownies HAT CON
gress may restrict the influx III Chinese la
borers, when their coming shall have become
so extensive As to threaten the interests of
the country. This alone simply paves the
way for the following:
Article II. Chinese subjects, whether pro-
ceeding to the United States as teachers, STU
dents merchants or from curiosity, together
with body and household servants. and
Chinese laborers who are now in the United
States, shall be allowed to go and come of
their own free will and accord, and shall be
accorded all the rights, privileges. immunitles
and exemptions which are accorded to the
most favored nation.
II the above means anything, it means that
the Chinese shall have the right of suffrage
the same as any foreigner who becomes
naturalized.
Article third is clause providing for in
creased protection to the Chinese in America,
and an eXtensioo of their rights and privil-
eyes. This is the gist of the whole treaty, and
under it not single Monaghan can be pre-
vented from landing in San Francisco, or ever
will be prevented. Laborers can simply be
classed as students, body and household SER
wants, and will continue to come by the thou
sands. The clause looks as if it We're drawn
up in the office Of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company. The commercial treaty is equally
vague and indefinite except upon such points
as the Chinese desire to be specially explicit.
1t closes the opium trade to the Chinese and
Americans, but does not prohibit any other
nation from carrying it on. The Chinese
Government has always acted in prohibition
of opium traffic, but millions of pounds Of
opium continue to be raised in China and eX
ported, and the government either cannot or
will not vigorously interfere. The opium
trade under the new treaty will simply be
transferred to English hands. In other re-
spects the Emperor of China STIMULATES that
he will treat the United States we'll as any
other nation.

THE gamblers of st. l. outs are to get securi-
ty in the spring in keno boat which is to be
started up the river. The boat will have a
large main cabin for keno, and smaller rooms
forward for faro, roulette and hazard. Each
passenger is to pay 81 fare, and three-fourths
of the fares are to constitute three spots" for
the game, the bank deducting the usual COM
mission. Once fairly out in the river, State
laws against gambling will not avail, and the
United States statutes do not recognize such
an offense. Here in Nevada when the sport
ing fraternity find law and license too oppres-
sive it would be an excellent plan to put a
steamer on the Carson River, and the amount
of licenses saved would equip splendid
boat. With Dolph Shane in command and
Alex Mckenzie to command the crew, the
craft would be safe from the reefs near En-
pire, aud not even fear the big dam by the
Morgan Mill.

WHERE ARE THE RAILROAD BILLs.-So far
nothing has been done to regulate the rail-
roads, although most of the legislators were
elected upon platforms containing explicit
anti-railroad planks. The Chronicle Of last
night thus pokes the members with the party
prod: Every member of the Storey County
delegation to the Legislature was elected on a
pledge that he would, as his first duty, urge
an examination of the books of the railroad
companies of the State, in order that the Leg
islature might have an intelligent basis upon
which to regulate faros and freights. The
Legislature has been in session since the Sd
of the month, and yet no member of the
Storey County delegation has been energetic
enough to propose the work to which he is
pledged. There is no time to be lost. The
Legislature is in it's third week. The people
will not quietly bear do nothing policy 1t
looks as if the Democratic members had
simply met to elect Col. Fair to the United
States Senate, and having finished the job
doubtless feel that the State has been suf1i-
GENTLY served.

THE Arizona Legislature proposes to inves-
tigate the causes which lead to heavy leak
in the matter of State printing. The parties
who secured the contract are charged with
resorting to numerous typographical tricks
to gouge the State, realizing large sums of
money by so doing. Printing swindles are
hard things to detect, from the fact that none
but printers know anything of the thousand
and one tricks of a complicated trade, and
where man is disposed to be dishonest and
over-reaching it requires experts to ferret out
the fraud. The Arizona Citizen deserves the
thanks of the taxpayers for detecting and ex-
posing the fraud.

THE NEW ASYLUM.

The proposition to locate the Insane Aysium
in Reno seems fare enough on its face, but In
reality it is the strongest card which Lancdon
and Clark can play. We hope that the gentle
men who have the bill in hand will not allow
themselves to be made tools of by these Cali
fat thing out of the contract of caring for
Nevadas insane. At present they clear
about fifty cents day off each Nevada
patient, and having in the neighborhood Of
the contract can be seen at once. If $50, 900
is appropriated for the building of an asylum
in Reno, S5O, 900 more will be wanted at the
next session, and SO on. The work will drag
on year after year, while the managers of
the Stockton institution will continue to reap
their harvest. One of the members Of the
firm is now in the city, having come up for
the purpose of influencing legislation in his
own behalf, but seeing how matters are going,
has reached the conclusion that the present
drift of affairs suits him about as we'll as if
he had the matter under his own personal
direction. The APPEAL has no objections to
the erection Of an asylum in Reno, but be-
lieves that some provision should be made
Immediately for the insane of Nevada right
here in the State. If this is no. done, they
are likely to be cared for in Stockton for
some time to come. 1t is high time that this
leak was stopped, and it cannot be stopped
too soon.
