There Is a ChinSman living IN Norwich
Conn, who has been il this country forty
years and served houoraby rs a sailor in
pension for honorable wounds received in
defending the American flag. But he is a
Chlnaman and under the Geary exclusion
act has been labeled and numbered ~ SOC
Such applications of the Chinese exclusion
act makes 1t ridiculous. IL four wears
Service In the navy and "A pension cannot
give "A foreign born resident right to
citizenship In this country we had better
close the gates at Castle Garden and put
up sign TO all applicants for citizenship
TO keep away.-lpter-O Ocean
The foregoing is stronger appeal to
sentiment than it is to reason. There is
nothing in the Geary law or any other
law that prevents the Chinaman named
from becoming citizen of the United
states. and If he Were a citizen the law
would not apply 10 him. If. therefore.
he does not think enough of his adopted
country to voluntarily become a citizen
in fact and good faith, his long residence
nor his service as sailor should exempt
him from the provisions of the law.
The chief point of objection to the
Chinese in this country Is their persistent
refusal to become citizens and thus full
" identify themselves as such.

The League of American Wheelmen.
Kansas division, will hold their annual
meet in Fort Scott on the 4th and 9TH of
July. They will give two grand parades.
one in the day time and one at night,
the latter to be with lanterns. These
parades will be participated iii by men
from all parts of Kansas as welias many
visitors from other states, and the Moni-
tor says it is the intention of the COM
mittee of managers to make the event
gorgeous and entertaining TO the utmost
limit. The wheel already occupies &
large place in the public sympathy and
1t gives good promise of becoming a
fixity among the established institutions
Of, at least, the urban portion of the

certainly does not lack that.

IT is neither prophecy nor a
threat, but a plain deduction from
the present condition of affairs,
that there will be very little
change made in the tariff of the
country by the democrats. a
change will be made in some of
the schedules of the Mckinley bill
which were not in accordance with
a very large Republican sentiment,
but there will be no nearer APP
proach to freetrade in the new
schedule that will be presented by
Carlisle than in the one presented
by Mckinley.

THE Chinese have sinned away
their day of grace in not register
ing, the privilege for which expired
on the fifth of this month, and
now under the law all unregis-
tered celestials must vamOuse the
ranch. This is what they get by
obeying the commands of their
foreign leaders instead of having
respect to the requirements of the
United States congress. 1t was
ordained that way.

GROVER is so we'll satisfied with
the Republicans in office that he

successors are agreed upon among

states, where the Democrats being
overwhelmingly in the ascendant
are everlastingly fighting for the

THE Texas bankers have left
this godly city. They were well
come as the rains that recently
fell, and if they have not had a
good time it was not our fault.
We treated them just as if they
were our own folks and made
them part of our municipal fam
lily for the time being. The LIGHT
is sure that they carry hence
nothing but the kindliest men,
cries and an inside view of the sa-
looms for whom the good citizens
of this city are not responsible, on
ly the committee of twenty-five.
May they come again and until
they do come may they find no
colder welcome elsewhere than the
Old Alamo City gave them.

THERE are any number of mud
holes that linger around the vicin-

and in the neighborhood of Austin
street. After copicus rains they
initiate the offence of Hamlet. 1t
would be well to get a sanitary
corral on these sinkholes of i'm
purity before they breed pesti-
lence. There is an evident en-
deavor to put the city in proper
sanitary shape on the part of the
health authorities and their atten-
ton Is called to the need of work
in the vicinity mentioned.

EULALIE is coming but there is

LOUISIANA reaps the fruit of Ar
kansas carelessness in the protec-
ton of her ievees. The Mississippi
levees in Arkansas are in a deplor-
able state, and as they overflow
they carry destruction into the
state of Louisiana. 1t is a clear
case of the little girl who with her
mother owned a kitten in joint
partnership. When the little one
stepped on her part the mothers
part hOllered.

THE breaks in the Arkansas
levees threaten the inundation of
all north Louisiana. Already the
loss is over a million dollars and
there is no computing to what eX-
tent the disaster may grow, as all
attempts to check the overflow have
proved unsuccessful. The greater
part of eight or nine parishes are
now under water and the situation
is very grave. Fortunately no APP
prehensiOn is felt for the levees
protecting the YazoO- Mississippi
delta, and the New Orleans levees
are stronger today than they were
one year ago when they so success
fully resisted the immense floods
that surged around them.

THE Republican party is retired
to the rear until those who have
pilOted her to defeat are themselves
retired to the rear. There is sneed
of repentance on the part of !the
party, and they must do their first
works over and put themselves in
closer touch with the people before
the people will again commit the
government to their hands. There
has been an idea that money
counted for all else in an election
and it is we'll for the idea to be
fully exploded before it takes any
deeper root in the party mind.ITh
people must be convinced that their
welfare is the first consideration
of the party before they will ac-
cept the pledges of the party for
any proposed reform in the gov
eminent. The people trusted Lin
coin and Grant and Logan and
Chandler and Sumner and the
illustiOus host of Republican
WORTHLESS that led the party to un-
broken victory, but they do not
trust Quay and Clarkson and Car
ter and that crowd, and so long as
these men lead so long will defeat
attend the party endeavor to
maintain control of the national
g oVernment. There is not a shad-
Ow of doubt that the corruptions of
the party have been its ruin, and
refor m must precede victory.
