THE CHINESE OATH.
An Extraordinary Ceremonial Among the
Celesxials.


Celessials.
One of the strangest judicial proceed
ings, perhaps, ever witnessed is that of
the Chinaman taking what he is pleased
to call the yellow oath" The ''oath"
or declaration is always written on a
piece of sacred" paper, and is as fol-
lows:
This is TO call the spirits, both good
and evil, TO descend and watch over the
trial Of -, who is charged with muir
dering -. If swear falsely and tell
one untruth, or do not make statements
according to the facts in the case,
humbly beg the celestial terrestrial
spirits to redress the wrong done to
and to punish me immediately for hav-
ing been a false witness; to arrest my
soul in its flight; To make me perish
by the sword, or to cause me to die
while on the sea far from home. This
is my true and solemn oath, uttered by
my own lips, and signed 10y me this. the
- day of the - month in the -
year of the reign of the Emperor -;
and in proof of the earnestness of my
declarations. may my soul be destroyed
as now destroy this paper, by fire"
Immediately after the witness finishes
reading his yellow oath" a lighted
candle Is handed TO him and the paper
Is given rs food for the flames. To the
writer's certain knowledge this form Of
oath has been administered but once in
an American court of justice-during
the trial of Wong All Foo, who was ac-
cused of numbering Isoi All Gou at San
Francisco i'm 1885. la China the candle
used in this extraordinary ceremonial
Is made from the fat Of criminals who
have undergone the death peualtyl

WCTORIa'S POWER RESTRICTED

Only Upon Advice Can She Withhold Her
Assent to Legislation.
The queen of England has no veto
power, but her assent is necessary be-
fore bill becomes law. Under the
British constitution there are what are
known as the three estates of the
realm, 1.-The commons, the lords and
the king" 1t requires the cooperation
of all these TO make statute, accord
ing To the Seattle Telegraph. A bill
must pass both houses of parliament
and be assented TO by the sovereign be-
fore it becomes an act of parliament.
The sovereign, lords and the commons
together constitute parliament" In
practice the house of commons is spols-
en- of as the parliament, and the ex-
preston dissolution of parliament is
used when the dissolution of the house
of commons only is meant Parlia-
ment never Is dissolved. Bills which
have passed the commons and the lords
are in due course submitted to the SOW
ereign for her assent. If she with
holds her assent the bill becomes mop
erative. 1t is 10 be understood that
this assent is given or withheld by the
queen, not of her mere motion, but al
she may be advised by her ministry.
She could refuse to act upon the ad-
vice of the ministry and thereby compel
their resignation, but she would be
powerless to act until new ministry
would be formed, and everything would
remain in allegiance until one was
formed, and the new ministers would
have TO take the whole responsibility of
her assent or refusal. She cannot act
without this advice. Therefore, the
the queen can only refuse her assent to
Legislation when advised by her minis
tiers, and her ministers would not so adj
wise unless they were sure of being sus-
tanned by a majority vote of the house
of commons or by the people on an APP
peal being made TO them at a general
election. On the rare occasions when
the queens assent has been withheld
to measures she has acted with the full
concurrence and advice of her ministers
for the time being and has never refused
to act ON their advice. The difference
between this and veto power is that
under the latter the bill comes law if
not vetoed within specified time. An
act of parliament requires the queens
assent to become q law.

TEXAS road law should tax all mar
row-tired heavy draught wagons, re-
hitting the tax on broad-tire freight
wagons. This of itself would go a
great ways in preventing the roads
when built from being cut into ruts.
If to this was added wagon axles
wider before than behind, the wheels
would not follow in the same track,
the wagon would turn in q shorter
arc and the draught would be light
or, as the hind wheels would not
drop into the same holes that the
forward ones did. Good dirt roads,
thoroughly drained, with broad tired
wheels on them would last long time
even without macadam.

THE building OF good county roads
under some general road law of uni
versal application is of the first Inn
portance to the farmers of Texas, and
these can be built by the short term
convicts with little or no expense to
the state. At the same time this
would go q long ways to solve the
vexed question of the employment of
convict labor without bringing 1t into
competition with the labor of free
workmen. This matter should en-
gage the early attention of the next
legislature.

THERE are a few good republicans
in Texas that will vote and work for
the election of Hogg, on the avowed
ground that two more years of his adj
ministration would kill the Texas
democracy. That result, If 1t was
certain, would tempt the republicans
of the state to vote for Hogg to man,
but it is not only uncertain but too
risky, as the interests of the state are
in danger through him.

THE immense rice crop of this sea-

of prices as effectually as the big cot
ton crop of last season did the price
of that staple. Hold the crop and re-
ducs acreage next year is the only
remedy. What is needed is larger
market and that can only come
through the increase of manu- features,
and the free trade dogmas of the rice
growers destroy these. This is the
