THE CERTIFICATE PLAN.

Some of the congressional represen-
tatives from California have a plan for
resisting the oncoming Chinaman. IL
is proposed to issue certificates tn every
one of them when the census is taken
next year. six months thereafter. every
Chinaman who annot produce his GER
tificate must quit the country.
The plan is simple enough. yet there
may be serious question whether its
operation would he effective. III only
the California congressman could de
wise a plan to brand the fellows i'm some
way that would be enduring and at the
same time highly ornamental. the whole
band might easily be brought to "a peri
odical round mp. a certificate is easily
lost, transferred or forged.

From the Chicago Tribune.
When Davis visited England, as he did
not long after his discharge from Fort

out a country. since there was no recog-

protection as n citizen. Mississippi could
not give him II passport or interfere tn

NO Isl FOR LAW.

This city witnessed a prize fight We'd
nesday night, the event taking place
after public announcement in an arena
imprOvised in "a swimming school. On
the same evening Butte's opera house
was the scene of All ugly scrap between
contestants of local fame. In both in
ances the gloves were light enough
for midsummer wear in - warm eli
mate. In Butte n contest was savage
enough to be called a success, while the
encounter i'm this city was a shabby
fraud. Patrons of the show in Ana
conda loudly demanded their money
back and didn't get it.. In Butte the
row over the referee WAS probably rated
alone worth h price of admission.
The only satisfied persons in this city
were the merchants who were lucky
enough to levy on the gate receipts and
thus get their pay for an old debt.
Law and ordinance are against these
brutal exhibitions, yet they are con-
Quoted constantly without pretense of
secrecy. The people who spend their
dollars ON them have no claim ON any
bOdy's sympathy, they always know
what to expect when these k are
announced and they are seldom disap-
pointed. Ii would be refreshing to see
what luck law might have were it to
enter the arena against those who do
not hesitate to disregard its injunc-
tiOns, yet there are no signs that that
style of contest will be witnessed soon,
as the professionals evidently have it
all their own way.
