If there are any Democrats who do not

as they did, have a right to demand that

Of man is this John ". Golf, who, as
counsel to the Lexow committee. has
succeeded in stirring up such a zzest Of
police and municipal corruption in
America s greatest city as has never be-

like this question has been asked many
times during the last few months, and
as the investigation which Mr. Golf is
conducting continues it becomes day by
day more apparent that the interest felt
IN his personality is fully justified.
Mr. Golf has lived long enough to be
considered on the verge Of age by those
whose cheeks still flush with youth, but
he is not called anything but young by
the veterans. He is in middle life that
period when all mans faculties are at
their best, if the possessor has not mis-
used them. To be precise he is 46-

In person he is not a large man. His
shoulders are narrow and show tend

and he has a relatively big neck. Jay
Gould used to say that he wanted men
with big necks about him, because men
whose necks were unduly small could
not be depended on as the possessors of

from justice in Michigan, as secretary.
and that they neglected TO ascertain the
opinion of the sailors employed coastwise.
They further oppose the shipping before a
United States commissioner for the reason
that the associations shipping offics at
San Francisco is a crimping institution,
pure and simple.
The union thinks that If the Chamber of
Commerce had been informed of the above
facts, and the fact that the United States
commissioner at San Francisco once before
withdrew his deputy from the association
office because of its illegal and crimping
rules, 1t would doubtless not have petit
toned the commissioner OF navigation to

Japan War.
The Chinese of the city are very sore
about the japanese success in the Asistic
war, and their attitude within the past
week has changed from one Of proud de-
meanoE 70 one Of sulIenness and supreme

firmly expected that China would permit,
the Japanese TO win several battles, until.
flushed with successes and becoming care

destroy the whole Japanese army and

be At the mercy OF China. who would very
probably annex the little island" and
expel the inhabitants. The fall of Port
Arthur, however. and The pitiful attitude
Of China in crying for peace and settle

great calamity TO the proud spirit of the
local Cinnamon, and they will not be con-
soled. The small boy and the unfeeling

for the Chinese population in general by
giving them from day 20 day exaggerated

A Posr-ISrKLLIGEScER reporter called on
some OF the Chinese merchants of the city
yesterday and endeayored 10 obtain their
views on the subject and get an expression
