Fraternity and the Fair.

Whatever Is for the true and practical bon.
eft Of the home. city and Stale Is worthy tho
unqualified Endorsement and hearty assistance
of the fraternal world. San Francisco Is en-
phatically fraternal society city. The men
of this metropolis who are not directly or in
directly connected with orders and fraternlties
are the merest minority Of its citizens
The members Of these orders as a rule are
practical workers in every branch OF business.
They are busy, energetic, patriotic people. re.
liable, faithful and competent. ana whether i'll
Congressional or legislative halls in p'eslden-
tial or gubernatoria CHAIRS upon the Supreme
Bench, as jurists, cOunselors, advocates, or Ia
the busy lines of commerce, manufactures. ne
chanics or agriculture they carry with them
their fraternal teachings and liberation.
1t is patent at this lime. especially among
our brethren who are mechanics and workers
in the everyday avenues OF life, TO use com
monsm. FThat work Is slack and money
scarce" Ia their Individual spheres.
Lodges, councils, tribes, groves, parlors,
stammS. etc., generally, are well-to.do. and
upon application OF any needy member. will
ingly donate. Yet there is worthy innate
pride which prevents man In health from ask
ing for charity or help from his own lodge or
subo ordinate. but give HIM work md his skill
and ability soon drives want from the door.
Without alluding to the mighty good to C ity
ana otate WnIch Will ACCRUE Ton ine WIZ
winter Far, and conceding all that the most
sangurne have predicted. the Fraternaf In
dex would especially call the attention OF
brethren 10 the Incalculable benefits which will
result to the tens of thousands OF members In
this city from the dist ibutioD OF large
amounts OF money 10 mechanics ana iaoOrers,
and the extra circulation of coin throughout all
the lines OF lie. Unless, by some means there
Is a revival OF work by which willing workers
can be employed. there Will be calls upon fra
ternties Tor aid this winter not To be ignored.
Therefore, be not only patriotic, but prac-
teal, and as fraternites as we rs individuals
lend your aid TO make the Mldwntrr Fair
success worthy of California;; for by so doing
you Will actually aud positively aid thousands
of your own brethren. and prevent calls for
relief upon your treasures.

Secretary Morton Extends the Scope of the
Meat Inspectors Service.
WASHINGTON, Sept 17.-An important or
der has just been issued by Secretary Nor
ton respecting the meat inspection service
of the Agricultural Department. After
Oct. l. all hogs slaughtered for the inter-
state and foreign trade will be inspected
before slaughter and again at the time the
carcass is being dressed. The inspection
of pork has SO far been confined TO the MI
croscopic examination of carcasses intend
ed fer export trade. Secretary Morton has
determined that our own people shall have
the benefit of the inspection as well as the
foreign consumer. The inspection now
inaugurated Is considered a measure of tho
utmost Importance for protecting the con-
sumner from unwholesome meat. Instruc-
lions have been given to inspectors cover
ing the inspection OF cattle. sheep and
swIne and their products. aud will be en-
forced in all parts of the country. In
s~pectors are instructed TO condemn car
casses when afflicted with any disease or
injury which would make the flesh unfit
for human food. The enforcement of these
Instructions. IN the Secretary's opinion,
will insure wholesome meat for the inter
state and foreign trade. and this is all tho
Department of Agriculture has under lts
CONTROL, but the municipal boards OF
health must still! be depended upon to pro-
teot the consumers from diseased animals
which are sold for consumption In the

Envoy Thurston Discusses the Condition of
Affairs in the Islands.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Ill. A. Thurston.
the Hawaiian envoy. has returned to this
city to watch the progress of affairs re-
latine to the provisional government of
Hawai-, which he represents. he was
seen by o reporter this evening. and said
that the last information he had received
from the provisional government was of
the date OF Aug. %. Then there was q
surplus of $4,000 in the treasury.
and the Postal Savings Bank had a surplus
of s35.0O0. He regarded as a most signiti-
cant sign of the governments stability the
fact that an Issue OF $3.50. 900 of six percent.
bonds for internal improvements were put
on the home market aud sold. q few of
them, at 9S, bnt most of them at par. This.
he thought. showed that there was no lack
of confidence in the provisional govern
pent.
THE attitude" continued Mr.. Thurston,
"of Mr.. Spreckles Is simply u matter of
business. He wants cheap eOOlie labor.
and knows that this system would De done
away with If tho country was ON American
State. The three largest sugar planters of
the island all favored the monarchy. The
question is simply whether there shall be q
government on the Anglo-Saxon basls-a
white mans goverDment-wlth the rest or
the population being educated up TO the
standard OF citizenship or whether it shall
be an Oriental colony"
In regard TO the reports that Japan would
take steps To establish q protectorate over
the islands, Mr. Thurston said: Japan
made a demand of the provisional govern
ment that the japanese on the island should
have the right TO vote. The provisional
government declined to grant the request
ON the ground that lt was negotiating with
the United States with a view To annexa-
tiOn, and that while such negotiations were
pending it would not be proper to take
ste rs etfecting the franchise. Japan replied
that she had no oiicial knowledg e of such
negotiations and knew of no power but the
provisional government of Hawaii. Then
she attemp pied to coeree the provisional
government by threats that she would not
permit her subjects 10 come TO the islands
as laboreIs."
When asked IL the provisional govern
ment would agree TO the establishment of
u rrotectorate by the United states. Mr..
Thursday replied: The term protectOrate
is as narrow as u hair, or az broad as the
heavens. | have no idea what terms might
be suggested. There are Drotectorates and
protccrorates."
"What will be the result if the United
States should decide to simply let Hawai-
elonef What system OF government wall
be adopted!"
contingency. All our plans have been
made with q view to an agreement with
this government. The whole leland is
hanging upon that hope"
SIR. Thurston, IN conclusion, said most
alphabetically thar he considered the pro-
the relns until O hnald decision was reached.
1t is the strongest government that Hawaii
has had for years. If she has ever had a
stronger.

JoHNsoN's A BILL.

The burnt District Representative Will
Work for Increased Circulation.
Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 1T.-Representative
johnson. of Indiana, u member of the COM
mittee on banking and currency. who has
introduced in the House o bill giving ma
tionaI banks circulation TO the full par
value of bonds deposited. believes that
through bank circulation is one of the
speediest and quickest ways of affOrdIng
relief to the money stringsncy. and since
be has voted for the unconditional repeal
of the silver purchasing law. he says ne
would be glad TO do all IN his power to
provide q steady increase of the circulating
medium IN some other direction.
Il do not know that the committee on
banking and currency viii take carly
action on my bill" said Mr.. Johnson To the
journal correspondents to-day. or that
it will act upon it st any time; but | feel
satisfied that as soon as the Senate disposes
of the SILVER repeal bill the House commit
tee on banking and currency will take hold
of the financial measures before Is. and
will soon thereafter produce something. L
think lt Is q good idea for those interested
In financial matters to make every possible
suggestion 70 the .comLlttee. as IL Is seek
ing and suggestions intended
TO eqnip It for proper action when liz Is
necessary TO begin work. Naturally the
COMMITTEES Will defer consideration OF the
various financial measures before IL until

of the sslyer-repeal contest"
IL is the belief OF most men in Congress
that the bill % give national banks mar

come law within the next few months, n
il Is more than likely that In the same con-
nection there will be some amendment t.

Capitol On Tuesday the battle over the
tucker bill repeating the federal election
lave Will be resumed. and will continue
for the remainder of the week. The Dem-
ocratic members confidently expect a ma
Jority OF their own on that day. This Will

them TO put down the filibustering opposi-
tion or the Republicans General Tracey

acted with the Republicans last week VIII
Also. it Is understood, come into camp.

Deileved they were rejecting the
White Honse opposition TO the
ure on account OF its effect in the
Senate; not because they were not as
anxious to secure the legislation which the
Tucker bill aims at as any of their Demo-
cratic colleagues. With n quorum of DEM
ocrats in favor of proceeding with the
measure. however, longer utilization with
the Republicans GOuld De folly. Besides,
Senators voorhees, and German. and other
Democratic leaders in che upper branch of
Congress. have expressed the opinion that
the passage of thoTncker bill in the House.
no matter how partisan the debate proves
10 be, Will have no effect whatever on the
action OF tho Senate. Indeed. they declare
that the opposition of General Tracey and
his friends was injuring rather than aid
ing the cause of the repeal of the sherman
bill by angering the silver men IN the SEN
ate. who declared that 1t sayored too much
of White House dlctation.
As soon as the Tucker bill 10 reported TO
the House the committee on rules Will be
invoked 10 apply the machinery necessary
TO bring &c into the arena OF debate. This
the committee Oh rules W i'll do immediately.
and. although Mr.. Tucker says no attempt

sonable time cor debate has been ALLOW ed,

Colonel Oates. from the committee on ju-
dietary. will report a hill similar in tenor
to tho Tucker bill, on Tuesday. except that
his bill Is not as drastic as the Tucker bill
IN that IL does not repeal the statutes per-
hitting officers of the army and navy TO

quIres. Although this bill will 60 on the
calendar first, according to the precedence

that 1t will DO substituted by the rules conf

of the executive of each State TO call fol
