IT Is very annoying that while Eng
land receives prompt advices from her
representative in Brazil, the United
States can hear nothing from Minister
Thompson. The same channels of COM
munication open to the English Minister
are certainly open to our representative
also. There is feverish interest in this
country to have our own Minister tell us
the true story of the situation in the

held, the County Clerk must furnish the
necessary transcription from the Great
Register. The duty of the Trustees. we
submit, is to order this Transcription and
have the supplemental sheets printed.
The cost will not be great, but COM
pared to the disfranchisement of any citi-
zen the question of cost should not be
considered at all Under the Constitu-
tion certain voting rights are guaranteed
to the citizens, and not one of them
should be subverted to accommodate any
financial convenience whatever. If the
supplement is printed it will be clear
sailing for all election boards; if it is not,
there will likely arise contests and litiga-
ton that will cost the people far more
than the expense of printing.
There should be given to all the people
entitled full opportunity to express their
will at the coming election. We are
about entering upon new form of gov
ernment wherein the voice of all citizens
should be heard; but under any and all
circumstances, at any and all elections, the
constitutional right of every qualified
citizen to vote should be industriously
conserved, and in no wise abridged by
the neglect of any officials to do their
duty. Let it be hoped that the City
Trustees will reconsider their action of
Monday. and order the supplement made,
presenting to the County Clerk the de-
mand for the transcription required of
him by the law of the new charter. which,
for all the purposes of the election to be
held under it, is now in full force and

The decision of Judge Ross, of the
United States District Court at Los
Angeles, regarding Chinese gamblers
and highbinders, is unquestionably
sound. A Chinese gambler is not, of
course, Chinese laborer; neither is he a
merchant. and he cannot be classed with
any of those who are permitted entry
and residence under the law. So too
with the highbinder, he is nothing more
nor less than vagrant. But while the
acts of exclusion and of registration do
not define the term "Chinese laborers,"
it is clear that all are meant to be in
cluded by it, who are not teachers.

cart, the county $50 feet with cart, kept
st the court house, and the city school
owns 100 feet or more that is kept at the
school house. Some system should be ar
ranged by which both carts will be taken
out on the alarm Of fire. 1t might be
we'll to organize the county officers into
. hose company. and when the alarm is
given they could do great work under
command OF Sheriff Walsh. We have
an idea that Clerk Smith and Auditor

disease. Time was when even regular

cluded in their professional armament,
along with many simple remedies of
real value, other matters, the very men,

gender illness. We may feel thankful
that we have now entered upon later
and more scientific era, and that such
extraordinary drugs as weasels' gizzards,
does hoofs, snails, and other even more
repulsive horrors, do not now find a place
In any phsrmscopBia.

Of medical folklore, and some Of its pre-.

Times Of panic, by throwing a populs-
