CARNATIONS will under this law be vastly
multiplied. This is as may be. There will
be no limit TO the number Of candidates
who may be placed upon the official ticket,
except that each must come Endorsed with
the names of certain percentage of the
voters, but the average good sense of the
voters will prevent a too great confusion OF
candidates, as such would destroy the pur-
pose of Independent nominations. AS mat
tiers now stand one party boss dominates one
set of candidates and another party boss
dominates another set. The two bosses
meet and agree upon the candidate on each
ticket which shall be elected. The mass of
voters have no voice in the matter. The
new law gives them one. A very few
voters can put a candidate on the official
ticket and the body of voters can if they
choose elect the candidate so named. One
cannot always tell just how new law will
work, but this certainly seems worth trying.

MIR. POTTER EXPLAINS.

The gentleman who in a speech at the
Golden Club said he did not know whether
the American Government imposed head
tax on Chinese immigrants or prohibited
Chinese immigration entirely has made a
further contribution Of his store OF in
formation on the Chinese question. He is
now of the opinion that Chinese immigra-
ton may properly be limited to a certain
number year, but does not see why our
ports are closed against the people of one
nationality while open to all others. Mr..
Potter takes the ten Observation-Disclosures
view of the question. He does not perceive
any difference between a Chinaman who
comes to this country to earn few hundred
dollars with which to live on in his own
country and the European who comes here
to become citizen. While there are Euro
peans that are undesirable as individuals,
the race has contributed greatly to the de-
velopment of the country. Butt Chinese
have done nothing but drain the country of
money They have no intention of becom-
ing permanent residents and consequently
do not invest their earnings in the country.
What would be the present condition Of this
country IL European immigrants had acted
upon that principle?

EDITORIAL NOTES.

To better enforce the contract labor law
and the Chinese Exclusion Act Assistant
Secretary Tichenor has urged Congress to
appropriate SIS, 900 for the former purpose
and $4,000 for the latter, and that the Sec
Rotary be authorized to return to China at
Government expense all Cinnamon found in
the United States in violation of the law.
Fifty thousand dollars is but meager sum
to prevent the unlawful smuggling of Mon
golians into this country.
The people of Honolulu take great pride
in their Fire Department A local paper,
in referring to a recent fire, said: The
house, oDe-story building, was burned to
the ground The department turned out
promptly, but their services were not re-
quired. Company went right out to the
house, arriving there and getting on water

A prominent National Reform candidate
for the Hawaiian Legislature is winning
native votes by promising to do all he can
if elected to turn loose all lepers at Kalawao
and Kalaupapa, except those who prefer to
remain there, and to abolish the Board of
Death, the Health Department. The sug-
gestion to turn loose 1900 lepers upon the
community is being vigorously denounced
as fiendish proposition.
Sir John Macdonald has evidently failed
to enlighten Canada's legislators on the
Behring Sea controversy as he recently
promised, for when Parliament was pro-
rogued yesterday he parried a Grit legis-
lator's query by declaring he was awaiting
a response from Washington for definite in
formation regarding the question.
Some sensational reasons have been ad-
vanced by the French press for the order
recently sending the squadron of evolu-
ton to Brazilian waters. One hints at
threatened complications between the new
republic and Italy, and the Figaro NAL
iciously intimates that the latter power is
being egged on by Germany.
John G. Carlisle was nominated for United
States Senator from Kentucky last night to
fill the unexpired term caused by the death
of Senator Beck. Mr.. Carlisle's long ser
vice in the House entitled him to this dis
tinction at the hands of his party.
Senator Sherman has introduced a bill
which makes some important alterations in
the law governing national banks. One of
them reduces the deposits of United States
bonds with the Treasurer of the United
States to $4,000 for each bank.

THE NEW YORK ELECTION Law.

A kind of modified ballot reform goes
into operation in New York on the first of
July. Several bills were passed before
one was framed that avoided the objection
Of Governor Hill to any kind of ballot re-
form at all. But with an overpowering
public opinion behind them the Legisla-
ture kept at the work until the Governors
objections were overcome. Under the new
law candidate for any Office must be regu-
larry and officially nominated, and within
a fixed time must have his name and party
designation printed On the official ticket
The way to a nomination is open to aspir-
ants, without going through the party con-
vention. A certain percentage of the voters
of State, district or ward may place the
name of one upon the official ticket. This
is an essential point gained. Under the
new law the voters will not be confined to
cholce between two sets of nominees, both
drawing political breath from the same
source and both equally Objectionable to
the masses OF voters. The Sun objects to
the new law on the ground that "the indie
pendent candidate, If he is to have any
nope OF winIing, must as a matter of ne
cessity put himself in line with some exist
ing organization, however obscure, or must
establish one for his candidacy" The Sun
evidently considers the percentage of voters
who may put candidate in nomination
as political organization. They need.
however, to have no other organization
than is effected by the process of naming
their candidate. A candidate may not
nominate himself, but If a aspirant is re-
garded as a fit candidate by certain per-
centage of voters his name may be placed
upon the official ticket, and when the gene
raj election comes as many voters may vote
for him in preference to the regular candi-
date of the party as may be convinced of
his superior fitness for the office. The San
assumes that the number Of political or

PREFERABLE CIRCULARS.

The Boston Commercial Bulletin claims
to have exclusive information that the i'm
porting interests centered in New York
are about to issue half million circulars
to the several lines of trade in all parts of
the country filed with arguments designed
to prejudice dealers against the Tariff Bill.
THE CALL has no especial or exclusive in
formation respecting this particular cir
cular, but il we may judge by the contents
of some of our free-trade contemporaries,
the circulars have already reached them.

ting down to well filed tables, after which
the entire party were photographed, being
grouped in front of the old homestead.
