Roads, Horses and Cattle i'm Japan.
Cincinnati Commercial. I

Ihere are hardly any roads in Japan-not
over 1000 miles of carriage roads in the En-
pre-, and but two short railways of less than
100 miles in all. From and into the interior
all the products and articles of trade are car
rled on the backs of men or horses. The fact
that Japan, with population of 35OOO,OOO
OF people, has but 100000 horses and but
$4,000 cattle, while the United States (1s7O).
with 3o,OOOOOO of population, had 10000, 600
horses and mules, and 26,OOO,OOO cattle.
shows to what extent human muscle is taxed
ID the former country in its travel and traffic.
but we must not forget that Japan is insular,
and that there is no point in the centre of
the larger islands one hundred miles from
navlgable water. There is also an extensive
system of canals.

THE UNIVERSITY or CALIFORNIA

Dr. John LeConte ResIEns tho Presidency
--Aspiring Regents and Intriguing Pro.
fessors--What tho Press, tho Alumni and
tho Students Say.
From thb News ana Courier.
California papers of recent date con-
ton the announcement TINT DR.. John
LeConte has resigned the presidency
of the University of California, which
he has held for the past six years. He
retains the professorship of physics.
1t is evident, from the reports, that
ring of regents and professors has
been intriguing to secure control Of
the institution for personal ends. IT
is generally charged that one Of the
regents, a DR.. Stebbins, desired the
presidency for himself, and instigated
disscnsions III tho faculty. DR.. Le-
Contc hearing Of the movement
promptly resigned the presidency, as
he had only accepted it after some hes-
itation, and had for a while refused to
receive the additional salary for prcsi-
Dental services. At the same time the
regents removed Prof. Welcker, a
West Point graduate and an ex-Con-
fcdcrate officer. No attempt was made
to ouet Prof. Joseph LoConte.
The action of tho regents has pro.
vokcd the condemnation of tho press,
tho alumni and the students Of the
University.
The Alta California (Rcp.) SAYS:
"That there are discussions in tho
tncnity cannot be denied. Has the
right remedy been proposed? Is It
wise to summarily dismiss tho men
who have given the University the
good name 1t holds, and whose depar-
turo will be the cause Of other able
ones leaving2 Would it not bo better
to remove those who, by their macbi.
nations Of personal ends, have been
the mcans Of creating the trouble ?
We refer to Professors Moses and Sill.
Their removal would be no loss to the
University. Their positions could
easily be filled" 1t adds that II would
have been better for those regents who
desire the presidency themselves to
have remained in the BACKGROUND in
stead of instigating the attack.
The Chronicle (Ind.) says tho
scheme was laid to further the aspira-
tions OF two Of tho regents, and adds:
Ut is hopeless task to attempt the
discovery Of a candidate uniting the
talents Of o regent with tho scientific
"SstNhhlCuto VI u ILcSOnJc.''
The Eraa'iner (Dem.) says: "The
administration Of President LcConte
has been entirely satisfactory to the
students and their friends" and init
mates that President LoConte and Pro.
fcssor Welcker have raised the stand
ara OF entrance so high that even the
high school graduates cannot obtain
admission. Hence these tears.
An "Alumnus" Of 1876 SAYS IN q
communication that the Alumni be-
lievc that "Prof. John LeConte is far
abler In his department than any othe,
professor in the University except,
perhaps, his brother, Joseph. The
loss of one would be the loss Of both,
and In Dr. Joseph LeConto will be
lost its most beloved professor, ite
most eloquent lecturer and a schola,
and scientist who cannot be replaced
by any man in the United States"

The Chinese Must Como.

The letter signed Henry LIE Blank
ard pnrporting to be sort Of prophe.
cyof the condition Of the State twelve
years hence, is evidently written with
purpose and amoral. It conveys a
hint TINT IN the writer's opinion the
true sort OF immigrants to Introduce
into this State are the, Chinese. 1t calls
attention to the fact that tea thrives in
South Carolina, and luccrnc is bccom.
Ing ono Of its chief forage crops. It
also shows TINT the Chinese have for
centuries raised rice, cotton, tea and
Mcerne, all Of which arc suited to this
State. Moreover the almond.evcd
worshippcr Of Joss cannot become a
citizen, and will not be used BY de-
signing politicians on election days,
nor will his labors be disturbed about
election time. The last suggeation
that the Chinaman is a deadlier foo to
rats and reaches than even Dick Whit
tineton's cat, Is also worth considcra-
ton.
The Chinese are patient, industrious
and thrifty; and the cry against them
III California arises from this very
tact, since they operate rs a check
upon the demands Of unreliable native
labor. Kept within bounds, Chinese
immigration is good thing, especially
as the need Of South Carolina 10 labor,
not land; and the conflict that has
arisen in California would have no
cause for existence hero.
The only objection VIC know of is the
alleged inability Of a Chinaman to
manage a mule. That lord]y beast
has been, 1t is said, especially design
cd for the corps dAffSque, and the
two go together. But as hoe hands,
as binders IN the grain fields, rs potato
harvcsters, as laborers on railroads
and canals, and rs laundrymen, cooks
and house servants, tho Chinese give
entire satisfaction, Why should they
not flaternize with the mule, also?
We see no reason why they should
not 90 well in South Carolina. and wo
would be pleased to see tho expert
mcnt made here even before 1883. The
distance from China, entailing con-
siderable cost Of transportation might
be drawback; but the matter can be
inquired into. We commend Mr..
Lc Blanks letter to Commissioner
Boykin, with q request that he read
1t tcareiully between the lines.
