A CLEVELAND DEsPoTIsM.

Nj Cleveland is reported to have given
Congressional delegations the go-by in re-
spect to appointments, and 10 have admitted
that he may be governed by the recon-
mendatiOn of a single Congressman. A
Democratic Washington correspondent says:
Under the single Congressman plan Cleveland
can say TO each member ~ did this Tor you," or
Il cannot do this for you because you have not
stood by me in measures ] favor, aud l cannot
afford 10 strengthen your KIND OF Democrats"
II Mr.. Cleveland adopts the single Con-
gresham plan he will have started on. a
dangerous experiment The constitution
does not contemplate a President who will
use patronage 10 force his pet measures
through Congress. The first time the Pres-
dent makes the remark that q Democratic
contemporary assumes that he will make,
he will be subject to impeachment. Other
wise there would be despotism in plain
sight. The immense patronage at the dis
posal of the President might enable him TO
substitute his Will for that of Congress.
Admitting that n Congressman is honest
and asks nothing for himself, he falls into
bad odor with his party If he pursues
course which cuts him off from a share of
the patronage. Despotism cannot come in
a more insidious form than through the
misuse of patronage. The people would
deal promptly with a man on horseback,
but not so promptly with despot who ex-
ereises power through the use Of sack.

WATER RATES.

The following is from the address OF the
Water Committee whose schedule of rates
was set aside by the Board of Supervisors
for one Of Supervisor Rogers making
much lighter reduction:
According 10 lie statement Of Engineer
Sehussler, there has been expended n the pur-
chase OF land, waller rights and the construction
Of works the sum OF ST. 4O5, $50 SO. The com.
pany claims that The value OF the properfy ar
the present time is $4,000, 900, and tbat the
city should allow a reasonable interest or tbat
sum.
The basis Of the estimate of s26, 900. 600
as the value of the Spring Valley property
is the revenue derived from the property.
That revenue depends upon the rates
charged consumers. The company seeks to
establish high rates on the ground that it
should be allowed interest on Its invest
ment, and then estimates the value of It's
property on the basis Of the revenue which
the high rates have enabled it to collect. 1t
estimates its property 10 be worth
$26000OC0 because rates have been obtained
which enabled the company to pay interest
on S26000,000. But If rates had only en-
abled the company to pay interest on
$l7.000000 its estimate OF the value of the
property would be but S17,o00,O00 The re-
ductions made by the Rogers ordinance are
the result of preliminary skirmish in a
contest shich will fix rates SO as to give the

JUSTICE BREWERS BLUNDER.

Justice Brewer made the mistake of mis-
life iu his speech before the Foreign Mis-
siouary Society. The friendly audiens must
have warmed him into a ferYency of speech
lie had not contemplated. he admitted that
DO might be rght to prevent hurtful immi-
grafton, but contended that the Chinese
were not Of that class. They were ex-
Cluded, he said. because they were industfi-
Gus and economical, and consequently could
work at lower prices than other laborers.
lie seems to think they are desirable for the
reason that they can compel other laborers
to come TO their prices as the alternative of
not getting work 10 do. Justice Brewer
cannot be ignorant of the fact that Ameri-
can lRbOrers and Chinese laborers represent
two types of civilization. The American
type Is based upon the family; the Chinese
upon the Individual. The American laborer
has fought for a share in the product of his
labor that will enable him 10 marry and
support children during their minority.
The Chinese in their own country have no
such rfquirementS. The family cuts a small
figure in the Chinese home life. A rich man
marTies as many women as he pleases.
while poor men, as a rule, do not marry at
all Certainly they do not marry with
hope Of rearing children carefully, sending
them to school, and, in a general way. fitting
them 10 become respected members of soci-
ETY.. Justice Brewer must realize also that
two such different civilizations cannot thrive
SIDE by side. The lower in time will root out
the higher. The labOrer whose family re-
Quirements can be met only by realizing
good wages for his work cannot compete
with one who can live on few cents. II
the cheap laborer can be had in sufficient
numbers the high-priced laboreT will find
nothing to do. Which civilization would
Justice Brewer prefer? Would he be will
ing to accept Chinese civilization as a nat
ural result Of Chinese wages? If he would
lie is not the kind Of man an American
would ike to see on the Supreme Bench.

HALF OF AN ESTATE FOR THE
ATTORNEY.

The well-known lawyer. Henry !. Rowal-
sky, has applied to the Probate Court for
one-half the estate inherited by the minor,
Henry Macdonald, from his father, the late
{. Z. S Macdonald He says, by way of
excuse for so heavy a demand, that he has
70 divide with other attorneys. The boy,
Henry. who is n child, was willing to halve
with kowalsky, probably knowing no bet
ter, and his mother is said to have agreed to
the terms demanded by the lawyer; but
neither of the TWO could make any bargain
which court would be forced to recognize.
and Judge Ccffey will have to base his de-
cision on quantum meruit. Is it worth
$50, 900 to establish The title of an heir TO
an uucontested estate of $4,000? That is
the whole issue in the case.
The rules which guide the practice of law
in most countries frown upon contingent
fees. In some communities they cannot be
collected by law. a lawyer never divests
himself Of his quality as an officer of the
court, and though he is supposed to do his
best for his client, his statements are viewed
with suspicion when he appears to be argu-
ing for himself as well as that client
In some cases, vi here the suitor is money
less. and has a good cause, it is not re-
garded as improper for a lawyer TO under
take the suit, relying upon his success for
his fees. We're the rule different, impecuni-
Gus people might suffer hardship. Brt the
ethics Of the profession require In such
cases that the fees shall be reasonable, and
shall only exceed those which would have
been charged to moneyed client by as much
rs Judge may appraise the risk of getting
no fees at all. We have had in this State
number of cases involving large amounts of
money, which have been taken up by law
yers Of reputation; but while there Is no
power 10 the courts to Impair the right Of
litigant to reward his lawyer as he pleases,

ON THE FIFTH OF MAY.

Secretary Carlisle says that if the Chinese
exclusion act is not repealed he win see
that it is enforced. So far, so good. 1t is a
pleasure to find one official who does not
assume TO know better than Congress what
laws tile country needs. The burden Of the
enforcement of the Chinese registration act
will fall upon John C. Quinn, Collector OF
Internal Revenue. Mr.. Quinn promises TO
enforce the act. There has been consider
able talk of cutting Mr.. Quinn's term short
on the Iretext of ''Dernicious activity" but
it is much to be hoped that Mr.. Quinn will
be allowed to expend whatever of surplus
activity he may possess in enforcing the

The very peculiar yucca trees Of the
Mojave Desert, growth which fourishes
where rain does not fall as if to prove that
no soil is quite sterile. were some years ago
turned to profit in papeT-making by syn
dicate, which eventually gave up the indus
try. The paper was made expressly for the
Daily Telegraph of London, whose propri-
etoTs were interested in the syndicate. Prob
ably the process combined with the great
distance was found too expensive compared
with others, the number of fbers from
which paper may be made being almost CO.
extensive with the vegetable kingdom. The
fact that abundance of water has been
found in the Colorado Desert near Yuma
by sinking an ariesiRn well suggests the
possibility of finding supplies farther north.
Gould that be achieved paper-making might
have another trial, If the yucca tree has
not 10 give way TO some more profitable
growth under irrigation. Meanwhile a new
use for the yucca has been found at Los
Angeles. The fiber is cut by machinery
into thin veneers, which are reported to be
tough and flexible, and the inventor thinks
lie has fortune ahead.
Oxford and Cambridge yesterday rowed
the customary boatrace of the universities

miles between Putney and Mortlake, and

that these alterations of victory are fire.
quent. The time, 1S47. is said to be the
fastest in the history of the race, so there
must have been some hard pulling from
commencement to finish. Time, however. is
not a certain test of a crews rowing style
and endurance. Much turns upon the con-
diti0n Of the river and wind. The period Of
slack tide is chosen, but the rivers own
current may be feeble or full and strong,
and head wind retards both by pressure
and wavelets. Any comparison with Yale
or Harvard has therefore to be made with
discriminating care. Tne interest in this
years race is keen, because Yale and Har-
ward propose to challenge the English 'varsi-
ties. Every lover of one Of the healthiest
and most invigorating psstimes must hope
that the challenge will be accepted. and
that international matches will hereafter be
regular spring or autumn events.

1t was extremely fortunate for the
INrELMoENcER and its wide circle Of
| readers that the arrangement was made
by which it secured the exclusive right
to distribute, for a limited period, re-
productions of the splendid series Of
views which the official photographer
Of the United States government had
collected with much labor and great ex-
pense during the past year.
The results of his work are remarks
bly, comprehensive. His busy camera
carefully explored every nook and cor
ner. From the northern to the south
ern gate, from the PlaisanCs to the
Peristyle be was omnlpresent he was
everon tho watch for special features,
and also those which from an art and
educational standpoint seemed to be
most worthy OF preservation.
In securing for distribution the
cream OF this remarkable collection the
lETELLIGEECER presents the most beau
tiiul, artistic, and worthy Offering ever
vouchsafed by q newspaper to its read
ers, aud it therefore commends the
entire series to such as may desire the
most complete, comprehensive, inter-
esting and instructive, descriptive and
pictorial history OF the great exposition
which will ever be offered.
Persons who desire to take advantage
Of the offer should read the advertise
ment carefully.
There are 256 Of the views. They
are in sixteen separate portfolios, six
teen views in each portfolio.
To obtain each one Of these portfolios
the reader must clip from six consecu-
tive issues OF the INTgLLiGENCER the
numbered coupons inserted Tor the pur-
pose-not the large advertisement, or
any part OF it, but the coupon on the
bottom of the last column OF the first
page of the paper.
Six OF these coupons with ten cents in
cash must be sent to the INTELLIGENCRR,
when that one portfolio will be mailed
to the party sending them.
The first coupon for the first portfolio
was printed last Monday. The last one
will appear Saturday morning. The
first coupon for the second portfolio
will appear next Monday and the last
one on the following Saturday, and 80
on week after week.
The proper and safe way is to clip the
coupon each day. Those who have
missed any of the papers containing
the first six coupons can secure the
back numbers at the ISTELLIGENcER
counting room. e.
New names are added to the sub
scrlption lists every day, and all who
have inspected the pictures are both
surprised and delighted at their clear
ness and beauty. Nobody should be
without them when they can be secured
at nominal cost.
