secured a position in the customs, serving
at Shanghai In that position he continued
until 1888 or 1884. when he return ed to
America and settled in San Francisco.

THE RIGHT WILL PREVAIL
Time for American Citizens to Declare

From the Santa Cruz Sentinel


From the Santa Cruz Sentinel.l
"Be not afraid. God lives. Righteous
ness will prevail. Sin will be extermln-
ated. The eternal foundations OF the uni
verse remain firm and unshaken. The
temporary mists of unbelief will clear
away and the sun of faith will again shine
in unclouded skies, never again to be oo-
scured.n These and such as these are
the sentiments which have held men
firmly anchored to the Rock Of Ages
during the tempests of unbelief and
irreligion that have occasionally swept
across the world. Faith in the eternal
foundations always clarifies the vision
and sweeps away The clouds from the
heavens on such occasions.
In the matter of political faith, as we'll
as in religious faith, there is need OF firm
trust in the foundations. In the political,
as well as in the religious world, wild
storms of anarchy occasionally rush
across the heavens, threatening TO bring
back the reign of chaos and old night.
At these times the fears of the tlmid OBJ
tain temporary ascendency, and even
strong men look anXiously into each
others faces and ask: ''What is to be-
come of our country?" Such, to some ex-
tent, is now the case in this nation. But
there is no occasion Tor panic. All that is
needed to allay alarm and anxiety is
10 exercise faith in the founda-
tions. Above the murky clouds of
passion and riot shines the bright
sun of the Constitution in The clear air OF
reason. The wild turmoil OF clashing in
dividual interests will be subdued by the
majesty of law and order. America IS
too thoroughly permeated with the idea
of liberty. regulated by law, to become
the prey Of license and anarchy. The
foundations upon which the Great Re-
public repose are firm and unshakeD.
The rock of the Constitution is unmoVed;
the principles of free government are
eternal. Calm your foolish fears, oh ye
of little faith in the doctrines that have
survived the cyclones OF wars compared
to which the present tumult is gentle
zephyrI
But faith without works is dead. The
true American is now called upon to not
only feel faith in the foundations, but to
show that faith by his works. Now is
the time for him to sternly array himself
on the side OF law and order, and frown
down all attacks, covert or open, upon
the only firm and safe rock-the Consti-
tuition and the laws made in pursuance
thereof Protection to life, property and
liberty is the duty of every believer in the
Magma Charta of American political faith.
The paramount present duty of the
American patriot is to thoroughly teach
by precept and example that no citizen
owes allegiance to any private organiza-
ton which clashes with his allegiance to
the supreme law of the land. Whoever
teaches any other doctrine than that is
wild anarchist or low demagogue, and
should be Stunned and spurned by every
true American.
Now is the time for American citizens
to have faith in the foundations, and to
show their faith by their works.

Color in Horses.

"a good deal of importance is attached
by expert horse buyers to the color OF
horses, particularly with regard to their
legs" said Western stocknan. "The
best horses [ have ever known had their
feet and legs marked with white. 1t is
proverbial that sorrel and chestnut
horses with white upon their legs are
good natured, while horses of the same
color without dash of white are often
found to be unsafe animals. Many
people think that the parti-colored horses
belonging to circuses are selected for
their oddity, but they are really chosen
on account of their gentleness and
dociIity It is said that black horse
cannot stand the heat, and white horses
have been pronounced as unsuited to
cold. The physiognomy of horses is also
much regarded. If he is full and broad
between the eyes he is supposed to have
superior sense, and to be easily trained,
but if be has sharp, narrow face, be
careful how much you trust him. st.
