Many of the cities and large
towns of the country are organic
ing Current Event Clubs" Il
most places these are exclusivel,
women's clubs, but there is no rea
son why they should not be mad,
up of both men and women. TIL,
only reason why they have beer
confined to the one sex, is tina
they are held afternoons, when thu
men are engaged. and that they
are purely educational, and dea
with matters with which, presume
bly,, men are already acquainted
The usual way of conducting them
is to have one woman of broad ed.
ucation, larger leisure, and oppor-
tTaity for study, carefully read
the daily papers, and Gull from
them all matter Of public interest
and present them in n condensed
form to the other members. who
are thus kept in touch with the
large world OF affairs, and under
stand what is the trend of events
ofimportance. After paper is read
questions are asked and discus
sions follow. Not only are nation
al affairs treated of, but Internal
ional questions are considered and
the effect of one action upon anoth-
er is studied. The broadening in
fuence of the clubs is felt where
ever they exist. Women get out
of the rut of everyday life and find
something of interest besides
neighborhood gossip. They come
to realize that the place in which
each one is set is but a small, an
infnitesimal part of the world. and
that they cannot judge of events
or of persons, by their own dwarf
ed standard. They learn tolerance
and patience. That is the effect
it has on themselves, and it has
n reflex influence on those by
whom they are surrounded. They
can talk intelligently with their
husbands and brothers on matters
which concerns the public welfare,
they can better teach the children
from the knowledge which they are
acquiring, and they will prove bet
ter neighbors Just from having
this wider outlook, and clear Wis
ion. There is another way of con-
Quoting these clubs, which by the
way are weekly or fortnightly, as
suits the convenience of the mem
bers. Instead of having one per-
son to do the work of hunting up
and formulating events, let the
members take turns in doing it.
In this way each one will have the
mental stimulus of study and re-
No community isso small

There is some little anxiety on
the part of the wool growers of
Texas to know Just what effect will
be produced by wool being on the
free list, and how best remedy the
injuries, and profit by the good,
results of the free list move. The
advice given by our Stock Jour
nails is to watch the markets and
learn how and where the highest
priced wool is produced, also watch
the mutton market and learn how
and where the most valuable NUT
ton is raised then get to work and
breed up your herd accordingly,
with an eye to combination for
both wool and mutton and by this
means obtain sheep that shall be
equal to any other sheep III the
world.

The school incorporation cleo
ton is due to take place en- Tuesday
April 18th. Don't fail to come Out
and vote one way or the other and
let us have an expression of the
people on this subject There are
some who oppose the move because
as they say "the special tax here
tofore has done no good" Let us
see. Five years ago San Saba
school district had no school build
ing. A special tax was levied for
the purpose purchasing the Col
lege building together with the
four blocks of land and every dol
lar of that tax was applied to pay
ing for the same. Now the school
district owns the said buildings
and grounds for which was paid
$500 together with interest all of
which has been paid and to-day
the public school property stands
there a monument to the enter
prise of our citizens. Is there a
one, who says "this tax has done
no good" that would take twice
the amount of money for the prop
erty in case he owned the two
school buildings and the four
blocks of lapd? Yes, this special
tax has done good, it has paid for
the public school property. Now
let US incorporate and levy the
special tax to be applied directly
to prolonging the free school term
and and it VIII then still do us
good. This is an enterprising
move and we hope to see every vo-
ter march up 70 the poles and cast
his vote. We hope to see the move
carried because we believe it to be
to the best interests of every citi-
zen of our district, and in the good
name of our town we hope to see
this enterprising move carried.

IN THE CITY.
The News To-Night-Joy Every
where but in Chinatown, Where
the Blow Fell Hard.

The news that the constitutionaiIy of
the Geary act had been upheld by the
Supreme Court Of the United States was
posted on the newspaper bulletin boards at
about 10 o'clock yesterday forenoon, a few
minutes after the decision was announced
in Washington.
The good news quickly spread over the
city and became the chief topic of CONVEX
sation about the streets. There was no ex-
element but universal satisfaction freely
expressed.
In Chinatown the news had paralyzing
effect. The confidence in the success Of
their fight had been so universal and
supreme that the defeat stunned the lead
ers. 1t took several hours for the officers
of the Six Companies TO collect their wits,
realize the situation and consider what
was the next thing to be done.
Chinese who were very guarded in their
remarks before talked freely for the first
time. and hints about Chinese retaliation
were given by Vice Consul King Owyang
aud others.
The more ignorant Chinese hardly knew
what the situation meant, and most OF
them still reposed their faith in the all
powerful Six Companies. Whatever is
done the Chinese will implicitly obey the
orders and advice Of the Six Companies
Among the intelligent Chinese the
opinion was general that the Chinese
Government would adopt retaiatory
measures, and missionaries familiar with
China anticipated that the Americans
would suffer from riots no matter what
steps the Chinese Government pursued.
Government officials here could say little
about future events. Their course will
depend wholly upon instructions from
Washington and opinion was divided as to
whether or not Cleveland would proceed
to carry out the law at once. II deporta-
tion is begun there will many problems
arise and grave difficulties may be met
in measures which the Chinese may take
to delay the carrying out of the law One
OF these, it is anticipated, will be the de-
mandiDg of jury trial by each one ar
rested, on the ground that section of the
Geary act makes the presence Of an unreg-
istered Chinese in the United States
criminal offense.

GEARY'S OPINION,
The Congressman Thinks the Chi
nese Will Depart Voluntarily.

0eSG w III
SANTA Rosa May 15-The citizens of
Santa Rosa are holding celebration to-
night in honor Of the Supreme Courts de-
cisiou sustaining The constitutionality of
the Geary Chinese law. Huge bonfires are
blazirg in the streets, fireworks illuminate
the heavens and cannons are being fred
TO express the approval of the people at
the result Of the test case.
CONGRESSMAN Geary, when interviewed
by the Associated Press reporter, said that
he did not think 1t would cost q vety great
sum Of money to enforce the law, and that
il would be unreas enable to think that the
Government would be deferred from exc
cutting the law because great expense
would be incurred in so doing. He said
owing 10 the time required in deciding
each individual case. and the belief that
the Cinnamon can be deported for about
SIS yer head, that the $50, eco left in the
treasury for that purpose will be sufi-
cient to meet the expense until Congres IS
meets.
he also stated that, in his opinion, when
the Chinese saw that the Government
meant 10 enforce the law, they would vol
unfairly leave for Cuba. Brazil and other
countries rather than remain here and in
cur the risk and trouble of being sent back
TO China. He thinks the highbinders and
other criminals viii be the first to be de-
ported under the act.
The Congressman said the Chinese have
nobody to blame but themselves for not
complying with the law. and that any
hardship resulting is the just penalty FOR
violating il.

The Six Companies Still Have Hope.
King Owyang Hints at
Retaliation

The Chinese in San Francisco, from Ii,
the Consul-General, and King Owyang,
his right-hand man, on down through the
presidents OF the famous Six Companies to
the woodchoppers on the byways and in
the Easements of Chinatown, were In a.
state Of utter bewilderment yesterday.
The news of the decision of the Su-
preme Court of the United States upon the
question of the constitutionality of the
Geary registration law arrived here shortly
before 10 o'clock yesterday morning The
news came from d. T. Riordan. the attor-
ney for the Chinese in this city, who went
TO Washington some weeks ago to aid 10
trying to defeat the law.
Just before the dispatch was received
the Six Companies had issued a circnlar
reassuring their countrymen and telling
them to rest easy, and that even ntually the
obnoxious law would be repealed. Only
three OF these circulars bad been posted in
Chinatown when the dispatch from Rior-
dan was received. The Six COMPANIES
and the consulate we're at once notified.
and before copy of the circular issued
could be secured those posted up had been
torn down.
1t is extremely difficult to excite Chi
nese. lie Is phlegmatic sort OF being
that can see his brother shot down before

Washington yesterday morning excited
the Chinese populace.
Merchants left their business, gam blers

burdens, and one and all hurried TO the
offices Of the Six Companies for confirma-
