A California Judge ha, stirred that
community to its depths by deciding that
Chinese children born in this country
are entitled to admission to the public

this decision, as it appears from this
distance, is that the question decided

That any community should even think
of refusing them the opportunity to learn
the language, history and laws O the
country Of their birth, or to receive even
the measure of education accorded to
their cousins of the same rank in life in
China, is anything but creditable to
American civilization or to the Ameri-

BEFOULlNG THEIR OWN NEST.
The Charges Against Mr.. st. John, the
Prohibitionist Candidate.

The Charges Against Mr.. st. John, the
Prohibitionist Candidate.
The disappointed followers of Mr..
Blaine have been doing their utmost to
prove that Ex-Governor St. John, the
Prohibition candidate, entered into ne
gotiations through a friend with the
Republican National Committee to sell
out his party and his principles for $685.
600 in favor of Blaine.
Of course Mr.. St. John denies the
story. But the Republican National
Committee certainly makes out a
strong case, and even the Republican
organs which opposed Blaine are COM
PEELED to admit their belief in its truth.
Well, if true, what does it prove?
That Steve Elkins and other of Blaine's
managers were willing and eager to
purchase st. John and thus betray the
honest Prohibition cause by lending
themselves to a mean and contemplate
conspiracy. According to their own
story, they entered into negotiations to
buy dishonest man who was selected
to represent principle to which they
have protested allegiance for years.
But the negotiations were delayed until
after the Ohio election, and the result in
that State made Steve Elkins and his
fellows believe that they could elect
Blaine despite St. John and the Prohibi-
tionists. So they forfeited their word.
cheated ST. John and kept the $4,000
in their own pockets to put up on bets
on Blaine's election.
This is the story, on their own show
ing. Of course, they may be lying
about st. John in their malignant
hatred of the man to whom they at
tribute their defeat. But as Mr. st.
John is lifelong Republican who has
been honored by his party and made
Governor of his State, he can not blame
people for believing him capable of the
conduct charged upon nim.-Neao York

a CONFESSED DYNAMITER.

The Statement of an Arrant Braggart a
Very Dangerous Man to BE Going Around
Loose.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, February 5.-There
arrived in New York last Saturday after
can, who is at present stopping in this
city, and who, according to his own con-
fession, was in a measure connected with
the great dynamite explosion of January
oath. He left London three days before
the explosions occurred, but the follow.
ing statement will show he was fully
aware of what would take place. He
says:
"At meeting of certain organization
which has the cause of Ireland at heart,
held in Newark, N. j., on the night OF
Tuesday, September 16, 1884, a resolution
was passed authorizing the Correspond.
ing Secretary to communicate with other
organizations in Boston, Philadelphia,
Jersey City and Scranton, and ask them il
their members would :be willing to send
two of their number to England for work,
expenses paid. All except Jersey City,
it is asserted, furnished the men. Twas
sent from Newark lodge.
After being fully instructed, we pro-
and met in London on October 22d. Our
place of rendezvous was the tavern under
Charing Cross Hotel. There we were
met by fellow patriot, also acting under
instructions. Our chemist, Louis Zoutel-
Ii, prepared the explosives.
Our first work was partially successful
the demolition of London Bridge. After
that we were compelled to remain in con-
| cealment. After several secret meetings,
finally on January Sd, our society held a
grand meeting, at which time it was de-
termined to do the biggest job ever at
tempted before, viz: Both houses OF
Parliament, Westminster Abbey, the
Tower and the British Museum.
At subsequent meeting it was decided
that Windsor and the Crystal Palace
should also be included. The day to blow
the id English institutions was fixed
for January Goth. Twenty men were
designated to the work, several disguised
as women. Our plans were partially frus-
lrated by an accident, and it was decided
that as we were under police surveillance,
it would be impolitic to attempt the work
ourselves, and we were ordered home,
and on the 22d of January we sailed from
Liverpool.

ON TO OKLAHOMA.

The Boomers Recognizing and Propose to
Make an Advance in Force March 5th.
! TOPEKA, KAs., February At the Ok
flahoma boomers mass meeting yesterday,
Captain Couch presided. After effecting
an organization the meeting adjourned
until evening, at which time the COM
mittee reported series of resolutions
claiming the right to settle on the Okla
'homa lands; denouncing the action OF
President Arthur in expelling Couch in
the severest terms, and paying their re-
spects to the Associated Press agent at
Caldwell, Kas., in the following manner:
Pesofred. That all dispatches sent by the
Associated Press Agent at Caldwell, relating
to the status of settlement OF the Oklahomii
lands, denying that then or now cattIeln EN-
are holding large herds of stock enclosed by
fences on said lands, are wiiIully false ana
calculated to mislead the public
The principal business of the meeting
the organization of union of Oklahoma
colonieS-waS postponed until to-day. liz
is the intention to make general move
ment on the Fifth of next March into the
country claimed to be subject to settle
ment in such numbers that the move can
not be successfully resisted.
The idea of general organization is
to make arrangements to furnish neces-
sary aid to the boomers who go down
into the Territory. The greatest enthu-
siasm prevails. There is steady deter
mination to make the settlement under
apy circumstances. The feeling is very
bitter against President Arthur and to
some extent against the Kansas delega-
ton in Congress, as it is claimed some OF
them are interested in the cattle cases.
Captain Couch said Lieutenant Day in
formed him that he had instruction not to
remove cattle men.

Between the Horns of q Dilemma.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, February 5.-County
Clerk Ryan yesterday received sum-
mons from Speaker Haines, of the House
of Representatives, requiring him to APP
pear before that body with the ballots OF
the Sixth Senatorial District. At the
same time Judge Blodgett of the Federal
Court ordered Ryan not to comply with
the Speakers order, but to deliver the
ballots in the Federal Court to be used
in the trial of Mackin and others indicted
for fraud. Ryan is in a quandary, not
knowing whom to obey, and has thus far
taken no action.
