BRAZIL AND IMPERIALISM.

The dispatches announce that Admiral
Mello has decided to raise the imperial
flag at Rio. Just what credit is to be at
tached to this report it is impossible to
now determine. There is strong prob
ability that it is true, for the activity of
the Imperialists in Portugal in advancing
the cause of NIello is significant.
1t will not surprise the well-informed
if the Brazilian trouble therefore takes
the form of an assault by monarchy upon
the republic south of us. If this comes to
pass the position of the United States will
be an embarrassing one. There will de-
velop at once strong sentiment in favor
of the American Government extending
the principle of the Monroe doctrine to
South American territory.
Unquestionably the South American
Republics will protest, and just as surely
they will ask the United States of North
America to join with them in prohibiting
the re-establishment of a monarchy on
South American soil. But it is grave
question whether it will be wise to so de-
clare ourselves. If we do, we will have
opened door that cannot be closed, and
that may involve US in every struggle
that arises in the sister continent. We
will be liable to be embroiled in every
petty strife between any of the States, and
these are almost constantly cropping out,
and thus we will abandon the policy OF
non-entanglement in foreign politics.
Nevertheless the sentiment of our peo-
pie is unquestionably opposed to the re-
instatement of imperialism in Brazil.
The present republic is by no means an
ideal one; its limitations are such that it
would not be accepted by our people with
their experience of self-government. But
it is in the right direction. 1t recognizes
free government and is opposed to the
claim of the divine right of kings. We
entertain the opinion, in the light of
present knowledge of the views Of the
most advanced craftsmanship of our peo-
pie, that this Government will remain
neutral in case monarchists attempt to
re-establish kingly rule in Brazil.

THE PLACER ORDINANCE.

Placer County has a broad tire ordi-
nance. 1t works we'll there; it would
work better here, for our soil cuts
up more under the wheel of the vehicle.
The late County Road Convention, by
resolution. wisely called the attention of
our Supervisors to this Placer ordinance.
The wagon rolled over the road should
be roadmaker, not road destroyer.
It ought to conserve hauling the heavier
rather than the lighter load. The broad
tire does this. In France are found the
best roads in Europe, and over them roll
only the wheels with broadest tires. 1t is
the law there that the road shall be dis
tributed over the largest possible surface
consistent with the weight carried. the
power exerted and the needs of the peo-
pie to wheel loads to market. The tires
of the French market wagons are all the
way from three 10 ten inches in width.
The greater number are from four to six
! inches. There, too, the hind and forward
wheels do not track. Each pair of wheels
tracks alone, and thus the combined
width of the four tires serve the purpose
of a road roller to keep the roof of the
road smooth, compact and free from cut
outs, or what are generally known as
| chuck-holes.
In Ontario the Department of Agricult-
ure advises that for wagons without
springs the tire should never be less than
two and half inches in width for load
of from 800 to 1000 pounds on each wheel.
For loads of from 1000 to 5000 pounds to
the wheel each tire should have diam
eter on the face of not less than six
inches. This recommendation will be
adopted in Ontario this winter. 1t ought
to be adopted here.
We need such regulation more than it
is needed in Canada. But no ordinance
of this kind should be imposed upon the
people at once. 1t must apply gradually,
so that owners of vehicles can accommo-
date themselves to the new rule without
suffering heavy cost The adoption of
the system will at once make manifest it's
economy when it begins to come into use,
for it is money saving device for all
who contribute to the construction and
maintenance of good roads.

THE press has it within its power to dc
a great, good work in the suppression of
anarchism. The bloody and impracti-
cable brotherhood that parades under the
red flag lives upon notoriety. Without
the press as an avenue through which to
reach the people, it will be stripped oi
communities. If, therefore, the Amer
lean and European press would become
silent concerning the anarchistic crew
reporting only their crimes as those o1
ordinary criminals are recorded, the in
famous thing would be shorn of great
deal of its capacity to do harm.

ton boldly published that it could be and
would be defeated; that it would prove
umbersome, unwieldly and source OF
annoyance to voters. 1t is now only nec-
essary for the friends of the system to
point in justification of their faith to the
fact that there is not now any man within
the confines of the State who has the
temerity to suggest the abandonment OF
the new and return to the old system.
There is not now in California any mis-
apprehension concerning the law, and
among those who deem votes commod-
tiles, to be dealt in for coin or promises,
or both.

THE TRIUMPH OF THE BALLOT
LAW.

Now, that the fall elections are over, it
is proper to call attention to the fact that
though the reform ballot system was in
use in all places save two there has come
up from but one point any complaint
concerning it. In that place the system
was used for the first time. and the only
growl about it is that some few of the
voters did not understand just how to
make manifest their choice. That hap
pens under any system when first tried.
The new ballot law was not intended to
qualify the voter in the matter of intelli-
gence. If we are to frame our laws so as
to accommodate them to the understand
ing of the stupid. our standards will
always be low and our progress no faster
than the pace of the slowest.
The RECoRD-UNIoN looks back with
much complacency and not little par
donable pride to the time, only few
years ago, when it stood alone in all the
State the proponent Of the reform ballot
law OA , CcAA , ~ O1bAAO0 All ~NS - SNSAA'
and bent its energies to impress the pub
lie mind with the value and worth Of the
system to the independence OF the Amer
ican sovereign. During all that long
period of advocacy this journal endured
the rebukes and the scorn of the many
for its faith in the scheme and was con-
tent to have its motives assailed and its
advocacy laughed at, conscious that SO
soon as the people, under persistent pre-
sentation of the matter. understood it
they would give it hearty support.
But even after the press of the State,
with but two or three exceptions, had
confessed the virtues of the system. and
it had been adopted and presented for
trial, the enemies of the law, the doubters
and the malicious, continued to assail il
with ridicule and misrepresentation, and
to shower upon it all manner of abuse

law was made sport of, and the declara-

by the sea men are wearing ten and
twenty pairs of duck and linen trousers a
week, and willing laundresses are going
daft over the pressboards that they don t
know how to handle and the
creases that they can't get in the right
place. The gilded youths who are too
ugly to dance are adorable in their white
flannels and officers caps. Girls, buds,
bellies and young matrons are white from
their pretty heads to their dainty heels.
Cool cottons, with poetic lace frills Cos
samer weight silks, with ribbons and ruff
fies; white hats, with pink and yellow
roses, butterfly bows and mercury wings,
and last, but not least, white shoes, are
the combination that restored the white
stockings to favor.
Not since the famous white summer
when Miss Grant and Miss Wright were
the bellies of Newport and the Duke of
Marlborough was king of the carpet has
there been such a rage for white clothes
and white shoes as now exists. The white
stockings had to come. Their return was
proclaimed by the low cut of the shoe.

Tribune, need spend but little money in
order to look extremely elegant. The
secret OF this wonderful achievement has
been discovered by one Of the very chic
leaders OF Partisan society. She posses
ses an excellent maid whom she appren-
ticed for year TO q great couturier in
order that the girl might learn how
dresses are cut and put together by these
autocrats Of Dame Ia Mode. Then four
times a year, once every season, she or
ders a superb dress from Felix, Rebouxor
Laferriere, who are popularity believed to
be her COutur1erS. All other dresses,
morning-frocks, tea-gowus, etc, are made
at home by her maid With regard to her
hats and bOnnets she does likewise, and
the results are surprising. Ask any one
in Paris what Princess de c. is suppos-
ed to spend for toilets, and you
will probably be told that her
apparel costs at least 10000 francs
month, whereas she has herself been
heard to say that the total of her ex
| penses (and she is one of the best dressed
women. in the French metropolis) is not
above %, 900 francs year. So thorough
ly does she understand the difficult art of
buying that she discovers at public sales

The term ''girl bachelor is a new coin
age seemingly destined to take the place
of the WORKOUT 'old maid" which has
long since lost it's sting, if indeed, it ever
had any. The girl bachelor of to-day is a
well-poised, independent, generally self
supporting young woman, who does not
see in matrimony the chief end and aim
of feminine existence and who finds in the
companionship of other women the many
opportunities for helpful work all that
she needs Plenty of the most agreeable
social life is to be seen at her woman S
club, which beneticient institutions, like
mushrooms, are springing up all over the
country. Here she meets dozens of kind
ly, pleasant, wise and attractive women,
and thus keeps in touch with all matters
of interest in the literary, artistic and
social world Her own rooms are also
the meeting place of many congenial
spirits. Should she wish to travel, the
world is her own from the north pole to
the pyramids, with every modern facility
for seeing and observing within her
reach. All this does not imply that wo-
men are growing adverse to matrimony
and family cares, but that many who are
not so constituted as to find in it their
truest happiness are finding other chan
nels for their activities, and are no longer
doomed to the loveless, contracted life of
the old-time ''old maid"
