COMPARISONS ARE ODIOJS.

The Stockton Mail man ought to
realize the truthfulness Of the above
adage That he is wilfully unmind-
full Of it is evidenced in the follow
ing:
Day before yesterday in San
Francisco SanGow exhibited himself
to a large audience composed Of
''aomen only HIS entire costume
consisted oi breech clout of very
unassuming dimensions, which, more
or less fortunately, justified his faith
that it would adhere. For some time
these hundreds of women sat and
gazed on the almost nude man, ''for
artistic purposes solely, and their
murmured "ahs" and ''ohs" and
''myees" proved how effectually their
love of cart" was appealed TO. 1t
was an anatomical specimen strictly
so it is alleged-that they gazed on
Sandow. With considerable defer
ence for the sex generally, and with
sincere and profound respect for
women at her best, the writer vent
ures the opinion that it was some
thing besides cart or an unappeas-
able longing for anatomical lore that
influenced the average woman that
feastsd her eyes on Shadows as
nearly nude as perfect form. If this
were not the case, say why a highly
developed and muscular woman, Qet
her be professional" as Sandow is,
if need be- was not selected for the
exhibition. At the present time the
muscle dance is being displayed in
Stockton ''for artistic purposes sole
ly," aid the masculine scientists of
our turn out en- masse TO study anat-
omy, as it is displayed in the female
form, 1t is perfectly astonishing
how many emateur anatomists there
are in Stockton. But mistake and
very discouraging one, has been
made: The brown women who are
on exhibition wear more th1n q
brsechclout. This is where the San
Francisco feminine scientist has the
advantage Of the Stockton masculine
lover of art as symbolized in nature.
But If the muscle dancers should
adopt the Sandow costume, or non
costume, the howl that would ascend |
from the modest and indignant pop> |
ulacs would rend high heaven.
Strange such a difference there |
should be twixt tyeedledum and |
tweedledee, Ii the San Francisco |
women want to study muscular de-
velopmeut there are enough of their
own sex whom they can select as
specimens-but you won't hear of
their doing SO; their appreciation Of
anatomy runs maleward.

trade. and that the burden will fall largely
upon them. It was recently reported that
the Nlcaraguans had already increased the
export tax on fruit. the principal product
Of the country. and the one in which the
American residents are mostly concerned
But whether that report is correct or not,
the hostile attitude OF those residents TO
Nicaraguan control seems to be based on
personal trade interests.
What, then, will be the solution Of the
problem In the first place. our Govern
ment should be able to procure and have on
record satisfactory assurances that the
landing of the British forces was not
made with q view to establishing q pro-
tectorate or under any claim Of u revived
protectorate, whether based on the condi-
lions OF the treaty Of 1860 with Nicaragua
or upon any other foundation whatever. 1t
should be satisfied that the landing was for
the non-political purpose Of protecting the
lives and property OF foreign residents,
which was presumably the mission on
which the Kearsarge was going when
wrecked. This point being settled, 1t is not
at all clear that our Government will
interfere with the exercise OF greater
degree OF Nicaraguan control than formerly
existed at Bluefields. The withdrawal OF the
Mosquito Chief and his Attorney-General
has left the Mosquito Territory under
another form OF government; and while this
is merely temporary. we find no mention
OF any proposal or desire to restore those
functionaries with the old form Of govern
ment precisely as before.
The time ls ripe. therefore. first. for such a
report Of the real condition of affairs as
must soon come from Capt. WATSON Of the
San Francisco. and. secondly. for such an
amicable settlement Of the dispute as will
protect the commercial interests Of Ameri-
can residents without encroaching upon the
OF Nicaragua.

The nerves Of sensitive people would be
shocked by the reports which the refractory
inmates Of the most humanely managed
prison In the world could give them; for
the punishment OF rebellion against It's
necessary discipline must be immediate.

At the first sign OF resistance In a convict
he must be reduced TO absolute sub
lection. or his evil example will prove
contagious among the desperate and vicious
men with whom he Is associated In conflne-
ment. A prison cannot be a place where
love and gentleness hold sway. 1t must
exercise its power through fear, through
rewards and punishments. and so that
every convict will be made to understand
that the authority over him lie Irresistible.
and that the slightest attempt to oppose 1t
will only aggravate the hardship to which
his misconduct has condemned him.
This result cannot be secured among such
characters as prison contains, without the
enforcement OF disciplinary penalties.
which are rough and severe, and which can
be so described by convlcts subjected to
them as to seem absolutely cruel. The
criticisms OF their keepers made by
convicts. and more especially convicts
on whom they have been obliged to lay

therefore be regarded with great suspi-
cion by any Investigators OF the charges

results.
