SOMETHING IN 1T.

Congressman Geary Is Of the opinion that
lawyers who advise the Chinese not TO reg
lister may be proceeded against on a charge
OF cons piracy with reasonable chance of
conviction. There is more force in this
suggestion than may appear at the first
glance. 1t will be cOntended, Of course,
that lawyer may entertain any opinion he
may choose as to the constitutOnality of a
gwen law. and that It is his duty to advise a
cAent according 10 his convictions. But all
citizens, whether lawyers or not, are bound
to accept the interpretations of the court
which the constitution has created for the
purpose as to what is the intent and mean
ilg of the constitution. A man may think
what he pleases. hut when be gives legal
advice he is required to admit the force of
repeated court decisions. Should a lawyer
who accepts the Calhoun doctrine OF nullid-
cation ignore decisions of the supreme
C0ur' ard advise a client that he need not
submit to laws that conflict with the Cal
hcun doctrine some way would be found to
convince him that, however free his thought,
1t was not safe to advise men TO commit
treason. The Chinese Six Companies are
clearly guilty Of conspiracy against the
laws of the country. They have ne right to
assume that a Supreme Court decision on
the Geary act will conflict with Supreme
Court decisions on the exclusion act. The
heads of these companies as well as other
citizens are bound TO consider a decision
as final in respect to the points involved.
Courts sometimes reverse themselves, but
until one does so its decisions must be ac-
cepted in good faith. Proceedings against
tae heads OF the Chinese Six Companies
and their Americau-ChInese lawyer would
do a world of good. 1t would inspire the
Chinese with respect for cur laws Ii
would teach lawyers that there is a limit to
their constitutional privileges in cases in
volying the enforcement of the laws of the
land. The advice Of the Chinese legal ad-
wiser is likely to cost the Government q
round sum and to cause ignorant Chinese a
good deal Of trouble. The Chinese had a
year and some months in which to register
The proper authorities provided all the
machinery for doing this work. Bat, acting
under the advice of the Six Companies, who
in turn were acting under the advice of an
American lawyer, there was a general re-
fusal to register. The consequence is that
there is but little more than one month in
which TO do the work that fifteen months
were allowed for

TARIFF REVISION.

Congressman Gsary is not far wrong in
the opinion that tariff revision means a
good deal to Calif0Tnians. It will as Mr.
Gsary says affect our whole line of products
But Mr.. Geary adds that "there is no time
% lose if our interests are TO be guarded"
II Congressman Loud or Congressman Cut
ting had directed attention to the fact that
our Industries szre in danger through tariff
revision no surprise would be experienced
But Congressman Geary Is one OF the at
lacking party. He will doubtless vote for
any bill the free-traders in Congress may
prepare. That he will attempt in committee
10 exempt California products from the
policy lie will vote 10 apply to other States
is quite probable. Most free-traders are in
favor of free trade for other people They
want all tie protection they can get for
themselves. Louisiana sugar planters are
solid in tie demand for duties on sugar and
Democratic wool-growers are equally firm
in demanding protection for that staple.
Congressman Geary incites Callfornians to
prepare to defend their interests from the
attacks his party is preparing to make upon
them. He TINS admits the necessity Of pro-
lection for this State. but is doubtless ready
10 apply the tariff for revenue policy to
other States 1t might be we'll for our
Orchardists to call upon Mr.. Geary for ad-
zjce as to the proper course to pursue to
save the State from the disasters that the
Democrats threaten 1t with. Perhaps be
can tell US why California should have the
benefit of the protection policy while other
States are shut out. 1t is quite within the
range Of the Democratic tariff policy to take
the duties of fruits Of all kinds and put
duties on sugar, coffee and tea. The fruit
duties are protective; there can be no
revenues derived from foreign articles that
protective tariff keeps out Of the country.
But duties on sugar. coffee and tea would
bring revenues. The exact amount of the
duty would be added to the cost of such
articles if admitted free. If Mr.. Geary can
save Us from this kind of tariff revision
even California Democrats will thank him
for SO doing.

expense. Even a reasonable fare is con-
siderable sum to persons OF moderate
means.
Differences 10 the marriage laws Of the
States OF the American Union do not ex-
plain or excuse bigamy and are absurd as
an apology for pOlygamy. The Federal
power has done its best to suppress the lat
ter in Utah, but there is another form of it
which the Mormons do not countenanee and
which States individually can deal with.
What the New York Tribune describes as u
bigamous deluge occurred recently. A man
from Ohio was convicted OF having five
wives and was sent to Jail for five years
one year for each of his spOuses. This scale
OF punishment was not adhered to in the
case of a Michigan citizen who comfOrted
himself with the society and heipfulness OF
three wives and will mourn separation from
them for EIGHT years. An Iowa man has
been convicted of taking half a dozen part
Eers In life, but his alteration is cOndOnable
compared with that of the monster who has
been confronted with the rate glanees of
twenty-three women whom he undertook to
support and cherish matrimnnially. Ills
punishment would be sufficient If he were
left TO their tender mercles, but he is not.
A concert by telephone was lately con-
Quoted between Chicago and Boston, and
was successful as an entertainment in
science if not wholly in art. The bugle
blew Marching Through Georgia, ''Red.
White and Blue" and "Garryowen." This
demonstration came from Chicago. Boston
did not follow suit with the big drum, but
varied the programme so as to alternate
classic Italian with popular airs. Yet not
more than fifteen years have passed since
this was dreamed of as possible by the
telegraph engineer. People marveled when
it was possible to hear the voice two or
three blocks off. aud now 1000 miles offer M
impeachment. 1t took fifty-One days in 1885
to bring tidngs Of the fall OF Sebastopol to
San Francisco. Science to-day is almost in

bombarding a city across a whole continent.

SHERMAN'S SILVER PLAN.

L is quite probable that full report of
Senator Sherman's speech at the Republican
banquet Wednesday evening would explain
the method by which he would carry his
silver plan into effect. Mr.. Sherman is
about the abest fin ancier in American pub
lie life and lie does not favor plans that are
clearly impracticable. OF course if gold
dollars worth of silver were put into sill
yer dollar, the two dollars would separate
in commercial value at the first rise or fall
Of silver in a gold market. The proposed
change of ratio would involve heavy loss
to our Government. The silver dollars it
now has on hand ara a legal tender at the
present ratio Of 16 to l. The Government
has purchased silver not yet coined at a
price much higher than would be maintained
under the Sherman plan. How Senator
Sherman proposes to overcome the diff
cultes in the way of putting his plans into
operation we do not know. but he is too
experienced statesman to suggest a
plan that he could not show to be practi-
cable whether the best possible plan or not.
