Salt Lake Police Raid Rank Opium
Joint.
SALT LAKE, May 21.-The horrible
condition OF Chinese opium-den deprav-
ity, as it exists in this city. was plainly
portrayed in the police court today when
Fon Gee. the proprietor of Second
South-street joint, WAS on trial.
The accused has long been suspected
as a conductor of a house where the ex-
tract of the poppy plant is smoked by
white women. For days and nights the
place was under official surveillance.
Women came and women went. Evil
dence accumulated early yesterday
morning. Pstrolmen Gillespi, Roberts
and Ford raided the house.
The story of the viciousness and utter
abandon related by the arresting officers
beggars description. Two women were
found lying on the floor completely un-
der the influence of the drug and almost
in a nude state. With Fon Gee they
were taken to the city Jail. The China.
man was charged with maintaining ar
opium joint, and the women aH beiut

Fon Gees case was concluded before

clsred that he was innocent. The de-
fendsnt was sent to Jail for 30 days.

CALIFORNIA CROPS.

Weather ONCE.

Weekiy Bulletin From the Coast
Weather ONCE.
SACRAMENTO, May 21.-Director Bar
wick of the California weather service,
in his crop bulletin for the week ending
the 21st. summarizes as follows:
The average temperature during the
week shows deficiency over the state,
it being deficient degrees at Eureka
and San Francisco, z degrees at Red
Bluff and Sacramento, 6 degrees at Fres-
no and Los Angeles, and degrees at
San Diego.
The rainfall was in excess OF the nor
NAL over the entire state.
This excess in moisture and deficiency
in heat has been beneficial to beets,
beans, corn, melons, ETC., and has helped
somewhat late sown grain, but large
quantities were too far gone to be bene'
fited by the more favorable weather.
The rain of the 2lst has no doubt in
jured to some extent new mown hay
that was left in the fields in an un-
stacked condition, and has also injured
cherries and strawberries, and has re-
tsrded the growth and maturing OF all
early fruits.
The severe frosts. principally the one
on the 18th, did some damage to beans,
corn and vineyards in Sonoma and Mem
docino counties, but nothing like the
damage reported the day following the
frost. What was injured were those
crops on low lands and swales of the
vineyar and fields of tender growth.
Take it altogether, the weeks weather
has been more beneficial than other
wise, although not the kind of weather
usual for the season. OF year. Frosts
we're later than usual; the latest frost
reported in the past 20 years was on
May z, while frosie this season are re-
ported ss late as the 18th.

They Consider Resolution In Regard to
the Seventh Commandment.
NASHVILLE, May 2l.-The general as
eembly of the Southern Presbyterian
church resumed it's session today. An
overture was received from the presby-
terry OF North Alabama to select COM
mittee to confer with committee rep
resenting the Northern assembly with
organic union in view.
The committee on foreign correspond
ence presented it's report on the overture
from the presbytery of North Carolina,
asking that a committee be appointed
to negotiate with view to closer rela-
tions with the Associated Reform
church. The committee recommended
the adoption OF resolutions expressing
renew negotiations in any form a9reea-
BILE to the assembly of the Reform
church. These were adopted.
Rev. w. K. Woods OF Baltimore offered
resolution which, while not referring to
the Breckenridge case especially, state5
that the assembly resfirms. as it alwaye
has done, that "sins against the seventh
commandment cannot be allowed in our
and condemnation of such sins, and con-
slider the commission OF this sin an in
jury to the church, to society and to the
state"
A motion to lay the resolution on the
table resulted: Ayes, So; nays. 94. The
resolution was then referred.
The committee on the Woodrow case,
Augusta presbytery, reported that as
the minister remains under the jurisdic-
tion of the presbytery from which he
was dismissed until formally relieved bv
another assembly, he is entitled to all
privileges of the dismissing presbytery,
and that the formal return of the latte r
is not necessary.
The committee on organization with
the Northern Presbyterian church re-
ported in favor OF rejecting the over
lures made by that church. The con-
sideration of the report is set for to-
morrow.

given return ticket to San Francisco.
Kelly was taken to Milton by the ar

Kelly he said that he was not the rob-

handouts and gave Kelly a return

struck the town a few weeks ago on his
return from Angels, and he recognized a

Fred Wesson, the stage driver,
thought Kelly was too large for the

CHIcAao, May 21.-The trial of Prem
dereast, the assassin OF Mayor Harrison,
which was set for trial before Judge
Chetlain today, was continued until to-
morrow. II is said the prosecution will
ask for continuances from time to time
until June 4, on which Late another
judge will succeed Judge Chstlain in the
criminal branch OF the county judiciary.
By this means the prosecution intend,
it is said, to try the case before another
judge, as Chetlain's midnight session Of
court and stay OF execution has preju-
diced the prosecution against him.
Should Judge Chetlain refuse continu-
ance, it is probable the states sttor-

no prosecutor in the case.

CAUSES OF COXEYIsM.

ST. LOUIS Republic: Lust of notoriety
is one OF the bad passions. The exhila-
ration OF leadership is as fascinating as
the exhilaration of drink. Some men
would rather be right than be presl-
dents. Some, may be most, would com
promise their convictions any time to
be talked about.
Coxey's example has been followed by
80 many that there is General and
an ''army" jn nearly every state that con-
aims men without fixed homes.
All this foolish business is natural
enough. 1t is too natural. 1t shows
how near we are to the natural man-the
primitive type which could not perse-
we're under difficulties and took all its
faults and misfortunes to the chief, the
patriach, the military ruler, or whatever
represented final earthly power to its in
hammable imagination.
Coxey, Frye, Kelley, and this st. Louis
General" Meyer, are bitten with the dis
ease OF ambition to be talked about. The
majority OF their followers are only fall
ing back at the first excuse into the nat
ural mans instinct Of going off to hunt
for paternal assistance instead of oppos-
ing his own energies to troubles in fin
ish fight
1t is unjust to assail the leaders
or the followers with charges of inten-
tional hostility to anything good. Coxeyf
and Kelleys are always around. TheiI
day of influence comes when wave Of
depression causes idleness and discon
tent The weak of thought and the weak
of will flock to any crank who proposes
to ask the Government to do something

servance of the anniversary, by Frank
@. Raible, Secretary OF the local lodge.
Grand Master Ritch was then intro.
duced and delivered the address OF the
evening, reading from manuscript The

address was we'll read and attentively
listened to.
The Grand Moster appeared like a
patriarch ON the rostrum. He is tall aud
spare, with white hair and beard, but
with stilla large amount OF vigor in his
frame. His voice was strong and clear,
and his reading easy and pleasant.

The English people want to be
rid of the house of Lords. Taking
their cue from this, some people
think that the United States Sen
ate should be abolished, believing
it was copied from the English
legislative system. But. this be-
lief is erroneous. The two bodies
have very slight resemblances;
their differences are very marked.
The house of; Lords is composed of
members who represent neither the
people nor the Government of that
monarchy, but the ancient barons
who held sway each in a domain
of his own, maintained by the
vassals3who in turn looked to him
as, at that time, their only protec-
ton against the rapacity of the
kings. 1t was these landed lords
who secured the freedom which
the English were the first of Eu-
ropeans to enjoy in full degree.
The old order having long since
passed away, the modern body is
but the shade of dead condition.
Many of ITS members hold their
seats by title of direct descent from
the old barons; but others have
the title and right to sit conferred
upon them by the king or queen as
a recognition of or reward for dis
tinguished attainments or great
public services. In the United
States Senate none of the condi-
tions named are or ever were pres
ent. The Senator represents no
ancient order. He does not hold his
seat by right of birth, and hand it
down to his son as. he does the IT,
tie to his lands. He is responsible
to the people of his state in their
sovereign capacity of a locally in
dependent Government. The Sen
ate was the outgrowth of need
painfullyiimanifested through thir-
teen years of unsatisfactory ex-
perience with Legislative depart
ment composed of a single cham.
ber; and the modes of election and
distribution of Senators was the
result of n compromise between
the larger and smaller, or the more
and the less populous, States by
which each should have equal
power in the one house to coun.
teract the vast advantage of the
former in the other. There is no
parallel to be drawn between the
two bodies in question, and wher
the Lords are dispensed with us q

house will nodoubt be re. re.organizet
