In the municipal elections in this
state on Tuesday of last week political
party lines in perhaps majority of
cases were not observed. There was
in each city, however, some governing
object of local character which in
fluenced the voters. 1t can hardly be
said that all the hard work done at the
polls in this city was for simple poll
tical triumph, either Democratic or
Republican. There was some other
object uppermost in the minds of those
who went to the polls. With the mass
of the Democrats no doubt this ruling
motive was to express dissatisfaction
with the license laws and sustain and
uphold the liquor interest. On what
other ground can the Democratic vote
for Mayor be explained? The issue
in the minds Of the voters was the liq-
uor interest. The Republican candi-
date was known to represent the anti
saloonsts; the Democratic candidate
was well understood to be in sympathy
with the liquor dealers. 1t was not
claimed that the Democratic candidate
possessed superior qualifications for
discharging the duties Of Mayor, or
that his standing in the city entitled
him to higher considerations. But
the object Of electing candidates friend
ly to the saloon interest will bear
little further inquiry. What do they
expect to accomplish by it? 1t cannot
be that they hope to change the license
laws, for they are not repealable now.
If it be only to hinder and obstruct
their enforcement, then it is simply to
put themselves in the attitude of law
viOlators. Whatever attempt is made
to throw obstacles in the way of the
enforcement of the license laws is dis
loyalty to the government. A deliber-
ate purpose to obstruct the license
laws, or to evade or nullify them, is
just as fragrant an act of disloyalty as
it would be TO aid in the violation of
any other law on the statute book.
The laws regulating the traffic in in
tOxicating liquors have the same au-
thority as the laws relating to any
other public interest, and he who pro.
poses 10 disobey them is no more en-
titled to respect than he who disre-
speCts all law for the government of
the country. Notwithstanding this,
this city elected a temperance Mayor.
The conclusion from the vote cast
renders it clear that large majority
of the voters in this city regard with
disfavor our present license system,
and are in this respect in sympathy
with the saloon keepers.

Although Millinery is their leading

an extent that we deem it our duty to

OPPOSITION TO TRE CHINESE

The prosecutions of the Chinese on
the Pacific coast cannot be chargeable
to the better class of citizens. 1t is
manifestly unjust to include all the
people of California. Oregon and the
states and territories west of the Rocky
Mountains as prosecutors of Cinnamon.
The 0verlafad Monthly mentions two
violent anti-Chinese meetings held, at
which fiery resolutions were passed.
One of the meetings was not attended
by single taxpayer, and at the other
meeting there were but three tax-pay
ers. 1t is the floating adventurous
population, those who have no perman-
ent abiding place, who for obvious
reasons are the chief enemies of the
Chinese.

NEED OF CRIMINAL REFORM.

NEED OF CRIMINAL REFORM.
The prevalence of crime and the
lack CT the enforcement of the law is
one of the most common complaints
in nearly all parts of the country.
The failure to convict the worst of
criminals has become alarmingly COM
mon. The trial by jury, when origin
ally instituted, was regarded as one Of
the safeguards OF the peoples rights,
and so it proved to be for generations.
But in these later times trial by jury
too often defeats the ends of justice.
1t is frequently the criminals friend,
to which he looks for clearance from
the punishment which the law attach
es to his wrong-doings. There is no
proper law regulating the selection of
jurors. Whoever will take the pains
to examine the selected list of Jurors
will naturally ask if those are the fit
test men in the community to sit on
the trial of cases coming before the
court. They are often class of men
who know nothing of the right con-
structiOn Of law and evidence. Such
jurors, regardless of the instructions
of the court, take upon themselves the
prerogative of constructing The law
and the testimony.
If there We're statute prescribing
the qualifications of jurors and making
the serving on juries imperative, there
would be less objections to our present
jury system. The reason for so many
incompetent juries is, that the men
best qualified for jurymen are general
ly excused from service on the plea of
the pressure of business. For this in
valid reason multitudes are excused
from service who are most competent
for the duties. There is no statute ex-
empting intelligent business men from
jury service yet men are excused as if
there Were laws allowing their release
from jury duty. There are in almost
every town class of men who are al
ways ready to be summoned as jurors
in justices, court; they are the street
gossippers having no fixed business
occupation.
The labor strikes which are occur
ring with such frequency are calcu-
lated to lower respect for law and in
crease the commission of crime. The
great st. Louis and southwestern strike
i'll which sGmany thousand have been
participating will make a fearful in
road on public morals. and swell the
catalogue of criminals. The people
will look to the courts for protection

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Woman suffrage received an import
ant endorsement last week in the
United States Senate. On the ques-
ton for the admission of Washington
Territory, the provision allowing wo-
man suffrage was moved to be stricken
out. On this motion long and ear
nest debate followed, in which many
leading Senators participated. The
move to strike out the woman suf-
frage right was lost by vote of 25 to
IL. Upon this vote the friends of
woman suffrage will take new resolu-
tion and be inspired with new activity.
The Senate for several years past is
known to have had many able advo-
Gates for the suffrage right of women.
The women who labor to secure this
right have been remarkably persever-
ing in past years: they have met with
rebuffs and disappointments, but it
may besaid upon the whole they have
made progress. The experiments of
woman suffrage in this country and in
England, so far as they had a reason
able trial, have not only worked no
evil, but have generally produced salts
factory results. There are greatly
needed reforms which the better classes
of our population have been earnestly
striving to secure-reforms of vital inn.
portance to the moral. social and gen.
eral welfare of the whole country, but
which are discouragingly hard to reach.
1t seems almost morally certain if the
women could speak through the ballot
th ese stupendous wrongs would be sup
pressed. The women in their efforts
to obtain voice in these matters have
had to contend with many annoyances;
their appeals and argument for their
rights have frequently been met with
satire and ridicule, and with no attempt
at logical reasoning. 1t must be ap-
parent to all right-thinking people that
a great revolution is wanted in the
habits and practices of society. The
evils which the law tolerates must be
set aside. and the women of the coun-
try are the great reserve power which
needs to be brought into action.

A Study OF the Camel.

No European army has made study
OF the camel, and the ignorance OF its
masters is fatal to tho beast, writes q
correspondent of the London Ieie-
graph. It's routine of life is directed.
or should be, upon principles as immu-
table as the laws that govern the So
lar system. It's existence has all the
rigid formality of legal process. To
disorganize, disarrange camel is to
spoil it; 10 hustle it is to kill 1t.
Spleen, liver complaint, heart disease,
are the result of irregularities In
hours or habits; it breaks up altogether
under unusual conditions of life. You
cannot work one of these beasts to
death if you use it III proper way.
But anything out of the common shriv-
els il up destroys it. Its timidity is
of the stupid superstitious kind. Sub
stantial causes for fright, such as would
alarm an intelligent horse, are disre-
sarded by the camel. Yet it will take
fright for no reason whatever, or next
to none. And then, as Is always the
case with the unreasoning, it passes in
a moment from perplexity TO panic.
The only plan, therefore, when con-
voying with camels through an enc
mys country is TO hobble the animals
as soon as danger threatens. The mo-
ment the scouts fall back the camels
should be made TO sit down and THEN
legs should he knee-haltered in such o
way that they cannot move, let their
tremor what it may. For once on
their leg they are stampeded, and all
attempts ut rallying them are as futile
as trying TO coax q sand-storm to stop.
This fact about hobbling took US some
time to learn, but We learned it at last,
and stampede is no longer among the
dangers upon which those who accom-
pany the conveys have to count.
