ANOTHER REASON.

Several excellent reasons have been
given in these columns, and by many of
our contemporaries, why proposed
Amendment No. to the State Constitu
tion should be voted down. One reason,
however. has not yet been stated why the
proposition should be condemned,
namely: If the intention was to prevent
foreign nabobs from owning tracts of
land in California, then that very purpose
is defeated.
The proposition is that certain foreign
ers shall not be permitted to own real
estate in the State. But it is not pro-
vided that foreigners under the guise of a
home corporation shall not acquire real
estate. They can now do that thing
without limit. and only by constitu-
tional amendment can it be prevented.
1t was probably supposed by The author
of the proposed amendment that he had
covered the ground when he provided
that foreigners of the white race or Of
African descent. etc., may own property
other than real estate" But it is clear
that this will not cut off the foreigners
who incorporate companies, take the
stock and amass under corporate shield
empires of real estate. AS it was the aim
to prevent alien ownership and monopo-
lization of American soil, and as the
amendment does not accomplish that end,
1t must be voted down and useless verbi-
age kept out of the Constitution.

SIX months ago we forecast that there
would be prior to the November election
some revival in trade, and that it would
be made campaign powder by the De-
mocracy, under the claim that such re-
covery is due to the Democratic policy.
That has come to pass, and the renewed
trade activity at the East is the text for
the most vigorous Democratic literature
and stump oratory, But, as we said last
spring, the change was inevitable, the
rebound would not be sharp, but it must
come, and now that its premonitory signs
are noticed the Democracy is claiming
the credit.

ADoLPH SUPRo, who is in many re-
spects the prince Of humbugs, has just
illustrated the value of gossip. We have
no doubt that the city of San Francisco
has had Boards of Supervisors that have
been venal. 1t is possible that some of
the present Supervisors are not up to the
mark of exact honesty. But we never
prefer charges without ability to main
tain them. Sutro, however, has for
months shouted right and lett, day after
day, that all sorts of corruption was alive
in the Board of Supervisors; that about
half the city officials in the metropolis
are bought and sold; that the very paw
ing stones reeked with corruption; that
all was the desolation of dishonesty and
the devil was to pay generally in high
official places in that city; that all kinds
Of companies and businesses bought off,
cial votes and special privileges, and
that out of these the officials have
amassed more money than the law al
lows an honest officer to receive through
the agency VI MS OHCe' 4ue OrdnQ jury
thereupon called Sutro before it to reveal
the facts with which he was supposed to
be stuffed and put the jury on the track
of some of this rascality. Thereupon the
roaring prince, millionaire and lot mo-
nopolist coolly tells the jury that he
knows nothing of any rascality. He only
suspected" He had heard rumors and
much talk about official rottenness, but
actually he knew of no evidence of it.
He advised the jury to call in the officers
of the corporations and societies and asso-
Citations of the city and pump them, and
perhaps in that way the jurors might un-
earth something. So much for Sutro, the
Revelator.

GENERAL" FRYE is reported to be
working up scheme to kindle revolu-
ton and overthrow the United States
Government. Two Populists to whom
he conided his plans have given the
snap away. These two men are probably
good American citizens, who could not
stomach the thought of revolution with
nothing but anarchy in sight. But it
will not be forgotten that Populists all
along his route of travel and pillage last
spring hailed Frye as hero, and gave
him material and moral assistance, just
as they did in this State. The party has
had only commendatory words for Frye
all along. and certain secret leaders are as
bad as is Frye, since they are working to
bring on disorder, out of which they ex-
pect personal gain. These fellows are
never found posing on the surface, but
they are to be located just the same They
are the radical socialists, the shrewd an
archists, the revolutionary monkeys"
who are making ''cat' s-paws'' out of the
people who have been drawn into the
party in sincere belief that it can accom-
plish true and needed reforms.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

From the San Luis Obispo Tribune we
have its half large quarto souvenir, rail-
road edition, illustrative of the scenery,
products and capacity of the whole San
Luis Obispo region. 1t consists of LOG
pages, and is very handsomely and very
profusely illustrated, giving portraits of
leading citizens, noted farms, towns,
villages, ocean and coast views, landings
and resorts, business houses, shops of
artisans, ranch scenes, the old Mission,
schools, falls, streams. forest views, rail-
way grades, tunnels, depots, etc. The
text is elaborately expository of the re-
sources of the county and of its business,
industrial and social conditions. 1t is a
credit to the Tribune and must prove
very helpful to the county.

The two-story frame house belonging

The house was unoccupied and Shep-

IT is not at all surprising to learn that
the Chinese are feeling demoralized and
discouraged in their contest with Japan.
The Chinese have been so exclusive, so
inflated and arrogant nation, refusing
to accept advice or take counsel, that it is
natural they should be greatly depressed
by having the conceit taken out of them
by much weaker, but less exclusive
and more liberal-minded power.

THE story comes that the Japs have
followed up the retreating Chinese and
have invaded Manchooria and turned
their faces southerly toward Pekin. If
SO. it is barely possible that what will
prove TO be great historical event will
come to pass. Pekin lies, as the crow
flies. between sixty and seventy miles
south of the great wall of China. By the
caravan route it is something over one
hundred miles. AS an army would APP
proach it the best travelled route would
be chosen. II, now, the Japanese con-
template an approach through Manchoo-
ria. they must pass the great wall, and at
that passage they VIII meet Chinese re-
sfstance assuredly. 1t is barely possible,
then. that for the first time In ali the
centuries of its life the great wall will
be battered by the modern engines OF
war. 1t will be literally the meeting OF

Ii HUNG CHANG, the aged Minister of
State for China, is reported as desirous of
taking the field at the head of all the
armies Of the Empire. The old man is
rapidly proving the estimate of General
Grant to have been in error; he is not
another Bismarck. He is too old for the
field; he is not warrior in the modern
sense, and because he is a statesman, and
for Chinese politics brilliant one, does
not prove that he is fitted to command
an army. The story is probably true
that he wishes to command, but so too
is the report probably correct that the
Tartar Emperor is pondering upon the
proposition to take off Chang's mortal as
we'll as his political head.
