The New Orleans Times Demo-
cTat, in commending the public SEN
timent that made IL possible to
bring TO justice The bribe.taking
councilman, j. Il. Callahan, exhorts
the people TO display equal zeal in
furnishing the other aldermanic
thieves who are under indictment.
Ii says:
"The people must show the sane
courage, enthusiasm and determi-
nation until the entire gang Of
robbers and blackmailers have been
convicted. If one can be convicted
all can but only provided the same
spirit exists as the public have
shown in the Callahan case. This
conviction will only make the bood-
lers and blackmailers more desper-
ate. They are cornered they see
the penitentiary staring them in the
face, and what matter a few moro
crimes II, by them, they can escape ?
We may expect, therefore, 10 see.
on the subsequent trials, the most
desperate remedies resoried TO. It
will require all tho watching and
determination Of the people TO pre-
vent in the other councilmanic cases
the triumph Of those methods which
failed so miserably in the Callahan
case. Bot if the people are in earn
est, as determined and jealous az
they have been in the first of the
Doodle cases, not one Of the black
mailers will escape.
''lt looks now as though the en-
tire Fitzpatrick administration
would collapse as completely as did
Callahan's defense. But one coun-
Gilman, il is true, has been convict
ed, and only one has resigned but
there are half dozen others indict-
ed. There are rumors ahoat Of liyo
more indictments soon 10 follow,
with dozen or so impeachmenis
in the background. The people
must not stop until they have got
rid OF every rogue in the city hall
and elected good men in their
places. We have Vindicaled the
law, and must now assure honest
government, as well as incorrupli-
bic justice and when we have done
so, every Orleanian will have reas-
on to be proud Of his city"

Fading Race.

A curious slatistician, who has
been conducting some Investigations
rs TO the average height Of the hu-
man race at different ages, has ar
rived at the conclusion that we are
gradually dwindling away, and that
the race will grow smaller and small-
er until il is extinct. He has facts
covering some three centuries, and
says that in 1910 the average height
OF Europeans was 5 feet z inches
IN 1890 it was 5 feet 9 inches IN
1920 it was 5 feet 8 inches and q
small fraction, and now il is but B
feet 81 inches. He argues from
these facts that there is a gradual
and regular diminution in the size
of men. He figures out that the
first man must have been some-
where near 10 feet 8 inches high,
and says that Og and Goliah were
not at all exceptional men IN their
days. In 1000 years more, he as
serts, man will not be than 10
inches tall, and in some few thou
sand years longer he will reach the
point.-Ex.

The Englishman is taught 10 say
"business is business" and has the
impression that 1t is unbusiness. like
to lot mora! ideas or friendly incIi-
nations interfere with the execution
Of contracts. A Chinese merchant
OF high character, on the other hand,
pays even less attention to his strict
legal rights than used 10 be paid by
an arislocratic land owner who
aimed at popularity in England.
Some interesting examples oil
mercantile generosity are cited from
the conduct Of How qua, the noted
Canton millionaire. An American
merchant having got into Difficult
ties after manv years transactions
with this gentleman, was set free 10
return home unembarra ssed, by the
Chinese Rothschild tearingup prom
issory notes 10 the value Of $72, 900,
with courteous assurances of regard
for an honest man who had been
unlucky. A bad debt Of that a.
mount may be philosophically
written of" by English bankers
and merchants, but it is not among
their customs to cancel such an OBJ
legation voluntarily for the sake OF
saving q respected correspondent
from poverty or dishonor.
Another story Of How-qua's large
mindedness is worth marking. be-
cause it involves the waving Of a
contract, not q debt. A friendly
skipper arrived at Canton with a
cargo Of quicksilver at a time when
the price of that commodity hap
pened TO be much depressed, so that
even if the whole cargo was sold
the price would not suffice to fill
the ship with tea for the return
journey. HOw-qua proposed to
take the quicksilver at the current
price, and lend enough besides to
complete the tea cargo, and this a.
greement VAS booked. While the
ship was loading sudden rise in
the price OF quicksilver took place,
upon which How.qua cancelled his
lormer offer and paid for the quick
silver at the ruling price, which was
enough to cover the requisite guam
tity of tea. The difference TO the
skipper came to about $4,000.
In l84l, when the Hong mer-
chants were called upon to contrib
ute to the ransom paid by Canton,
How-qua's share came to 81, ,0O0,-
0O0. He gave three notes, endorsed
to his order, on an English firm al
Macao, and, at the same time, sent
a friendly hint 10 this firm to accept
the notes before they became due,
so as TO clear a few hundreds by the
discount. The disinlerested love Of
a bargain and the good-natured wish
TO let the ill-wind of a national
quarrel blow a good thing into his
correspondence hands is character
istic, and completes the picture OF
a typical Chinese merchant.-M.
w. H., in N. Y. Sun.
