THE CHINESE SMUGGLING CONSPIRACY

THE WORLD has uncarthed great Of
fetal scandal, and to day it lays the
facts before the public as it has already
laid them before the Secretary OF the
Treasury.
The Chinese Exclusion act has always
been condemned in all oDrn minds be-
cause OF il injustice and cruel illib.
erality of race prejudice. But THE
WORLD has long suspected that it had a
worse feature than this, that il was one
of those laws whose chief effect is to ia
cilitatc and induce the surreptitious
doing Tor brides and blackmail OF the
very things they purport TO forbid.
\ searching investigation, including
some practical experiments, has shown
this suspicion to be in exact accordance
with the facts.

HELPING RAPID TRANSIT,

The Manhattan Elevated took off ten
more trains on Friday. This makes
travel by its lines slower than usual and
rs uncomfortable as it can well he. 1t
is the pleasure and the profit OF this
monopoly to compel its patrons TO ride
in crowded cars, to gasp for air, to hang
on straps, to experience all the discom
forts that can be sold for five cents.
And Col. HAN says: It's no use
for the public to howl. We are used to
kicking. We have taken the trains of
and will keep them off for sixty days.
That is final. -

rights of the people, 1t is further proof
that another system under another

WHO Is TO BE JAILED?

1t ia now clear that the Ordnance
Bureau is implicated in the armor plate
scandals.
The proof is positive and complete.
The rascalities were committed with the
aid Of agents of the bureau, and the
bureau itself must choose between a plea
OF utter incapacity on the one hand and
a confession OF connivance on the other.
The question still is, Who is to be
jailed for the frauds But the lates,

The explicit and ample authorit,

The explicit and ample authority
under which the President acted in
ordering Federal troops to aid in en-
forcing the national Law is given in the
extracts from the Revised statutes
printed ON this page. 1t Is not only
lawful for the President u employ
either the militia or the regular forces
to "suppress insnrrection, domestic
violence or combinations or con-pira
cies which obstruct or hinder the exc
cution OF the laws, but the statute
says at shall be his duty to take
such measures. President CLEyELASl
is not only right IN his action, but he is
right in declining to split hairs with
Gov. ALTGELD over the matter. 1t is ;

THE OPERATIC MILLENNIUM.

Cassandra, whose melancholy voice
has been doing vast amount OF croak-
ing in recent years, was fond OF pre-
dieting not long ago that the rivalry in
this city between German and Italian

away the song birds of the earth and
leave the metropolis to the more or less
tender mercies of comic opera and liv-
ing pictures.
1t is pleasing Mt this time, when the
pessmst and the iconoclast are in high
feather, to learn that not only had Cas-
suudra no warrant for these evil proph-
ccies, but that on the contrary the out =

"a reason saws physician, "why l often

sufficient water. 1t is an error committed by
many otherwise sensible and intelligent per-
sons that drinking much water interferes
with digestion. One of these persons said to
me lately: L rarely drink a swallow of
water; cup of coffee with my breakfast a
cip of tea or chocolate with my luncheon and

water, which is one Of the most important of
all substance required for the nourishment of
the body. Don't drain half-pint glass of
iced water just as you SIT down to eat; that is
palpably injurious; but do have a big glass of
water that has been boiled and cooled brought
to you on waking, and by the time the bath
and toilet have been accomplished and break
fast is to be taken the water will not be an
interfering agent. About three pints of wa

this is needed by the system."-St. Louis
