THE discussion which the Chinese
question has been receiving for the last
week or two at the hands of newspaper
correspondents is not much calculated to
advance the cause of truth, or aid in
wise and practical solution of the matters
at issue. Most of the communications
which have appeared have been Charac-
terized by prejudice, superficial thinking,
and a f1ippant tone of wOuld-be smart
ness which is not in keeping with the
seriousness of the questions involved. In
these respects the Chinese, or those who
have written in their name, have been
quite as great sinners as their opponents.
Nothing, for instance, could be more
puerile than the attempt to shuttle off
the responsibility for the wholesale use
of bribery to defeat the proposed con-
Stitutional amendment. Every thinking
man knows that the problem before us
is not only imperatively urgent, but COM
plicated and delicate as well. In view
of this fact sensible people do not feel
particularly interested in the cOnsump-
tion of sailed shrimps at Macao, or in the
nicknames which the Cinnamon in that
rather disreputable town may apply to
their Portuguese fellow-residents. In
marked and pleasing contrast with most
of the matter referred to is the thoughtful
and temperate article by Rev S. E. Bishop
in the October number of the Friend.
We cannot undertake to reproduce the
article, but cordially commend its careful
perusal to all our readers. 1t is not to
be expected, of course, that everybody
will agree with the writer on all points,
but the intelligent comprehension of the
subject displayed as well as the dignifed
and gentlemanly tone which prevails
throughout ought to have decidedly
wholesome influence, particularly on
those who are anxious to see themselves
in print. 1t would be much better for
all parties concerned if in the discussion
of this, as well as other topics of the day,
there should be less of playing to the
pit" and more arguments and appeals
calculated to influence intelligent and
people.

NEWSPAPERS.

The souvenir dancing orders of the
Albany Printing Pressmen's Union con-
tains the following contribution from
"a printers DEVIL which is too funny
for publication in o-called comic papers
at least they seldom have such genuine
humOr. 1t is entitled ga Prize Essay
on Newspapers"
Newspapers is called vehicles of in
formation.
Reporters is what is called 'the STAFF
so many of them being "sticks. -
They work hard-at refreshment bars.
PrOOf-readers is men what spOils the
punctuation of compositors. They spell
a word one way to-day and another way
tomorrow. They think they be intelli-
gent persons; cOmpositOrs think diff
ferent
Compositors is men as sets up the
types-and sometimes the drinks. Com
pOsitOrs is very steady men when they
are sober-which they seldom is when
they can help it.
Editors is men what knows every
thing in the heavens above and the
doesn't write anything whatsoever.
They is the biggest men you ever see.
Managers is the men as takes in the
tops of columns next to reading matter
thirty-seven columns out of thirty-two.
PrOprietors amt anybody. They amt
ever seen.
Printers devils is the most important
persons in a printin' office. They does
the hardest work and gets the least pay.
Freshmen is-well there wouldn't be
no newspapers, no circus bills, without
preSsmen to print 'em
Feeders is men that feed on the fat of
the land. If l ever start paper of my
own I'll call it the Umbrella. Every
body will take it.
I heard the foreman tell this funny
story to one of the staff the other dav.
1t must have been funny cause they
both laughed. This is the story: GA
gentleman was promenading the street
with a little boy at his side, when the
little boy cried out: 'Oh, pa, there goes
an editor' Hush, hush,' said the
father, don't make sport of the poor
don't know what you may
come to yet"

Watt was, strictly speaking, rather
the imprOver than the inventor of the
steam engine. 1t is a matter of doubt
who first constructed machine worked
by means of steam, but it is recorded
that as early as 1913 Spanish captain
named Blasco de Garay showed in the
harbor of Barcelona, a steamboat of his
own invention. The first engine that
was practically useful was one construct
ed by Thomas Newcomer, for which he
took out patent in 1905.
One hundred and fifty soldiers and two
hundred police had to be employed
lately in evicting tenants upon the Clan
ricardo estate in Ireland. Desperate
fighting took place on the roofs of houses,
the police using their swords and bay
onets and the defenders stones. Thirty
one arrests were made during the pro-
ceedings.
In the French forest of Esterel, a man
and his wife were at work not far from a
cradle in which nestled their babe. An
eagle is said to have swooped down, and
Selling the infant with its talons, bore it
aloft. The father is reported to have
shot the eagle dead, and caught the in
fant as it dropped earthWard.

THERE is a considerable increase
among the native population of converts
to Mormonism. The Mormon mission
aries have been visiting every island
during the past year, and have gathered
q large number of our Hawaiian fellow
citizens into their fold. What the at
traction is we have not been able to dis
cover, but it is an undoubted fact, and
one that the members of the Christian
denominations should carefully take
cognizance of. Several churches or
meeting houses have recently been
erected for Mormon worship.

AS Others See Us.

The following item, clipped from an
English paper, was received by the last
mail, and shows how others envy the
happy political condition of Hawaiians,
under the present regime:
q If the accident of birth and the asso-
Citations OF many years had not made me
irrevocably British subject, I do not
know any foreign nation to which I
should feel more tempted to belong than
the Kingdom of Hawaii. By majority
of nearly three to one the enlightened
legislature of those realms has abolished
the navy, and reduced the army to a
force of So men and a military band.
Happy Hawaii Happy Hawaiian tax
payer! Thrice happy, 1 may say, for
not only have they got rid of army and
navy, but the legislators, by some admir-
able constitutional hocus -pocus, carries
the bill over the Royal veto. The King
of Hawaii must be the ne plus ultra of
constitutional monarch, The only peo-
pie l feel sorry for are the Hawaiian
journalists, who will, fear, find things
very slack with no Horse Guards, no
Admiralty, no Wimbledon meeting, no
naval maneuvres.

THE DAILY
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1888,

A LITTLE scrap, printed in to-day's is
sue, opens the door little further into
the life of the late Walter NJ. Gibson.
No doubt his full history would be ex-
tremely interesting. 1t would also show
more clearly why a life which might
have been brilliant success, became
miserable failure. Had Mr.. Gibson with
his acknowledged ability been fearlessly
honest and patriotic he might have died
universally regretted instead OF with the
enmity of the community.
