THE committee of the house on for
eign affairs has shown its apprecia-
ton of the situation by approving
most rigid Chinese exclusion bill.
This bill. against which only this
may be urged, that it conflicts with
the existing treaty, is positively ex-
elusive OF all Cinnamon, save diplo-
matte, consular and commercial
agents. By its provisions Cinnamon
leaving the country cannot return
under any circumstances, and their
transit through the country is pro-
hibited as we'll. A fine of $500 is i'm
posed upon all Cinnamon brought in
to the country, heavy fines upon all
vessels even to forfeiture of vessels,
and grave penalties to any parties
aiding them to land. The bill abro-
gates all existing treaties in conflict
with the bill, and absolutely denies
all citizenship rights to the Chinese.
This bill should become law, no mat
ter at what expense financially to
this government. These heather
Chinese are bad crowd. They rep
resent the very worst elements OF
pauper labor and standardization.
They have but one redeeming trait,
their industry, and this is no benefit
to a country where the ranks of labor
are over full. Rigid exclusion Of all
Cinnamon and the abrogation of all
treaties under cover of which they
are admitted is the true policy for
America. 1t is in the interests OF
American labor, American morals,
common decency and true civilization
that their exclusion is demanded.

America needs a law which will COM

zens. No English absenteeism for this
country. Landlordism, the landlord
ism of American owners is bad enough;
we want no foreign or allen landlord
ism. The demand for such law, as
will exclude aliens from owning prop
erty in the United States, is q right
eous one and should right speedily
engage the attention of state and ma

THE disclosures made of smuggling
practices by United States naval Off
! GERS are most discreditabIe to that
branch of the service. The recent at
tempt to transfer the revenue marine
from the treasury to the navy depart
ment has revived old reports of
smuggling by naval officers and
brought to light more recent in
stances of gross violations of GUS
toms laws. Is there any connection
between this movement for change
and the complaints made by revenue
officers of the conduct of naval COM
manders and quartermasters? A
smuggling naval officer will be less
certain OF detection under naval than
under treasury supervision.

reform picnics in Missouri, but as
the Hon. Sam. Jones is also in Mis-
souri,, stamping the tail feathers out
of things in general, the Lone Star
orator will find himself playing Sec
ond fiddle. His lectures have all
but soured on his hands, while Sam
Jones is ever fresh-much too much
so, in the opinion of many"
