the Parade Was Abandoned.

the Parade Was Abandoned.
SAN FRANCISCO, December 20-Al-
though no particularly violent outburst
has marked the conduct of the striking
carmen since Monday last, there is an I'M
easy feeling abroad. OvertureS for COM
promise have fallen through. and it's likely
that the leaders will be unable 10 restrain
the strikers from violence much longer.
Plots are being considered for the destruc-
tion of the company's property. Iester-
DAYS proposed parade was abandoned after
the Chief of Police had notified the Presi-
dent of the Federated Trades that he
would call out the militia il they attempt
Ell to made any demonstration. Crowds
gathered along the line and jeered and
threw stones at the cars. No resistance
WIS offered except at Mason street. where
a squad of twenty police dispersed the
crowd.

rabbits and boy and girl each about
four days old The Werra had very tenn
pestuous passage She left Bremen on the

At the English port a large mail-is0 bags
was taken on board. In the English
Channel they had fair weather, hut after

THE Carrollton massacre was a cold.blood2d
outrage, abhorred in the south aswoll as at the
north.-GdiuCSt0R Nel0s.
II the southern Democratsin Washington
in the Cabinet, in the Senate, In the House
Of Representatives, in all the departments
have any adherence Of that massacre,
they have been quite successful in conceal
ing It from the public gaze. The NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN has no doubt that the south
ern people, as a rule, detost murder; but
the crimes perpetrated against the blacks
in Mississippi have always been quietly
winked at, or altogether denied, by the
Democrats party norta and south. Even

THERE is no question at all that the
Chinese are very undesirable residents of
the Pacific coast states, but our friends Of
that section will have TO bear with us II we
continue to suggest that murder and out
rage are not the proper means for mltIgat-
ing the evil. The Chinese in this country
are here under the plIghted faith Of the
government to protect them. They are
here, too, under treaty which was eagerly
sought by us, and the negotiation Of which
was hailed as great victory for American
diplomacy. We owe reparation for in
juries inflicted by mobs-owe 1t as debt,
not as charity.

a BILL is before the Senate raising the saln.
riCs Of such ldistrlcl) judges to 5000. This is
small enough-too small certainly for some
districts. But It is better than the present
wretchod compensation, and may at least rom
der the judges n little less anxious to earn pro.

poratiOns The bill ought to be promptly
made law.-NciU iOrk World.
The bill is not before the Senate, having
passed that body early In the present ses-
sion, and been sent TO that branch of the
national legislature Of which Editor Pulit-
ger is a cor spicuous and scintillant or1a-
ment. On its arrival In the House Of Rep
rcsentatives the bill was, of course, sent to
the judiciary committee, where 1t is tied up
because Democrats are not willing to vote
decent salaries to judges who were ap.
pointed under Republican administrations.
This is one of many instances of partisan
ship that is so narrow and mean that II has
become a national disgrace.
