feated Dallas with her base ball team.
She couldn't have done 1t with the old
nine, but knowing this brought 10 sew

all over the state, who bought San An
tonic cheap on Thursday night are hap
py. Dallas is sore. Their club thought
they would have . walk-over and said

fident, as their manager, Mr.. Lewis, now
admits. They were up late the night
before on the train, and yesterday, just
previous to the game, filled up on good
turkey, ice tea and Ice cream
at the Maverick. They wanted beer
on top of this, but were re-
fused by the manager, who will
not allow his men to drink. Now they
say they were beaten because they had
70 beer. The credit for the good play

measure to the admirable catching OF

Bob Rose showed himself to be an OLD

eyes on the pitcher, took In all his
"monkey business" and In his judgment
OF the game was very correct.
Dallas 10 big nine and Outbstted the
home team, but were not alert at field
ing and not spry. The game resulted In
a victory for San Antonio after the ninth

was satisfied, and especially were the
many ladies present we'll pleased. The
hoOdlum element was noisy and there
was not as good order as Manager Cava-
naugh had promised for ladies day"
Eyeryb was too excited and in
terested in the game to pay much atten-
ton to the disorder.
Another game 10 in progress today,
and Dallas has gone In determined to
win. Tomorrow will be the best game,
1t is predicted.
Fort Worth will be here Monday,

and as they have beaten Austin, our

mettle.

PARDONING CRIMINALS.

A few days ago we expressed the uni
versal public commentator of the en-
phatic resolution of the Governor of
California not to interfere with the course
of the law in the case of the murderer
Goldenson. The course of Governor
Waterman continues to draw forth similar
expressions from the press of the State.
The subject suggests the thought that
more of this emphasis in dealing with
criminals would give vigor to our Courts.
and certainty to the execution of their de.
crees. The application to the Executive
in the case of Goldenson was an impudent
thing. There was not even the shadow of
an excuse for it. 1t has become altogether
too much like established "practice 4"
throughout the United States, to include
an application for pardon in all murder
cases, as part of the regular proceedings
IN dealing with those who willfullv take
human life. The Executives are much to
blame for it; they have been so lenient in
granting reprieves and IN staying the exc
cution of the law, that criminals have
been encouraged, and the Courts in like
degree discouraged.
In the case of Maxwell, the Preller
murderer, the Governor of Missouri has
granted reprieve, yet there can be no
mercy in that, unless he intends to pardon
him eventually. On the contrary it awak-
ems hopes that it will be cruel to crush.
In that case there is no question of the
guilt of Maxwell. His trial was exhaus-
tive, was spread over much time his de-
Tense was made by the best of counsel and
backed by money and influences of great
weight. Out of pity for Maxwells mother
his execution has been postponed.
But is it the intention in giving the
Executive the pardoning power that it
shall be thus exercised? While his abso-
lutte right is to reprieve or pardon out of
hand and without reason, vet the unwrit
ten law Of custom has set up code that
demands stated reasons for such acts. Ger
tainly mercy to any other than the crimi-
nal was not in contemplation when the
pardoning power was bestowed. 1t would
appear that the right rule of action for
Executives is, in exercising this grave
trust, to adhere TO the rule that pardon
will not be granted to murderer unless it
can be shown that there was some sub
stantial right of the condemned infringed
at the trial; that newly discovered evil
dence has cast doubt upon the guilt of the
that the circumstances of con-
viction were such as to raise serious
doubt as to whether or not the defendant
was guilty as charged, and such doubts
ought to be certified by the trial Court
Beyond this, there are remarkably few
cases in which the Executive ought to step
between the law and the hangman. The
less Governors interfere with the laws
course the better for society.

THE TEACHERS GATHERING.

The gathering at San Francisco of the
members of the National Education Asso-
citation has been complete success. In
fact, there has been no large body of peo-
pie brought together in this State from
abroad that has represented so much of
cultivated intelligence or been more brainy.
1t is impossible to read the reports of the
addresses, reports, papers and debates,
without being deeply impressed with the
high character of thought that pervades
them all. There are some ideas advanced.
it is true, that are worn and have been
proven indefensible; but the great mass of
thought is of the advanced type, and is
valuable for its vigor, freshness and the
strength Of the manner of its presentation.
That educational science is advancing
abreast with all research, discovery and
ideas is indisputable, and no better evi-
dence of it is to be advanced than that
now presented at San Francisco in the de-
alterations of the teachers and in the ex-
position made of the teaching results

Thos. f. Hill writes as follows in the
July issue of the National Builder the
result of a recent trip through California
The Chinaman is an ever present factor
in all portions of California. We began.
during first visit to the State, seven
years ago, to investigate his condition with
feelings of pity. Since then our opinions
have changed materially. To admit the
Celestials without restraint would be to
drive Out the whites of the Pacific Coast.
In their own country the laboring classes
earn each but few pennies per day. The
wages paid here would attract hundreds of
thousands if they were free to come.
Once in the country, the Chinaman can
underbid for work any white man living
and make money then. He asks for none
of the accessories of civilized life. He
will sleep in any place where he can have
shelter; will live on $50 year for cloth
ing and $50 for food
At these figures he can work for thirty
cents day and make money. Take the
bars down and give free ingress for the
Chinaman into the United States and the
rate of pay for our laboring classes will be
| fifty cents per day in brief time, and
even then the Chinaman will cut under
and do the work, compelling the white
| laborer to don blue shirt, live on rice and
sleep like a savage, or go to the wall
The Celestial is simply a servile imi-
tator, without a particle of originating
genius. His distinctive peculIarities of
mind and habit are the result of certain
teachings of Confucius, over two thousand
years ago. He taught that the noblest
| attribute of mind was obedience and imi-
tation of the methods and habits of those
in elevated positions. He further taught
| that filial love and desire to rest after
death beside kindred was a most noble
quality, essential TO eternal happiness.
The effect of that teaching has filtered
down through twenty centuries, during
which time the Chinaman has worn his
blouse on the outside of his pantaloons,
had his head shaved, preserved his queue,
and gone home to die as his forefathers
have done for thousands of years. These
habits make the Chinaman of but little
worth as citizen. His notion of archi-
lecture and building are of the limerick
order. He originates nothing. He has
nothing new to offer by way of suggestion
or idea. He patronizes no new fashion.
He simply works for money to go home to
his kindred with, where he expects to die
He is a sponge, absorbing all he can lay
his hands on, with which he will return
when opportunity offers to his native
land.

A Steel Railroad Car.

The Steel Car Company, which, it is
said, will soon erect works near Chicago,
is constructing ire-proof steel car at Bos-
ton. Greater strength, together with a
reduction of the dead weight, are antici-
pated from these cars, and the dangers of
teleseoping and of fire are hoped to be
lessened. There Is nothing to burn ex-
cept the upholstery, and even that consists
largely OF uninhammable material. The
car now being built contains an obserya-
ton room, parlor, smoking room, buffet,
ladies' and gentlemen's toilets, etc, and is
promised to be as handsome as those fn-
ished in wcod.-EveniRg Journal.

INQUIRING INTO EVASION OF THE
IMMIGRATION LAWS.

On the 18th Of July, in the House of
Representatives, the question was before the
House of erecting a Commission of inquiry
concerning the charge by prominent jour
mails that the laws prohibiting the import
alton of contract laborers, convicts pau
pers and other classes, are being extensive
y evaded, owing to the lack of machinery
to enforce the provisions of said law. Mr..
Eandever, of California, asked the opinion
of the House if the resolution creating the
Commission went to the extent of embrac-
ing the question of evasions of the law in
reference to Chinese immigration, and it
was agreed that it did, since the preamble
reads: "Convicts, paupers, and other classes"
The proposition met with favor, and the
committee was ordered by vote practi-
cally unanimous. In the course of the de-
bate Mr.. Oates said that he deemed the
matter one of first Importance, and declared
that he knew classes of Immigrants are
brought into the United States practically
in slavery in violation of every principle
of onr statutes, and greatly to the injury
of the public. Mr.. Cox, of New York,
affirmed the statement that there is urgent
need for legislation upon the subject, and
went so far as to add
