This years election marks the begin<
ming of new era in California state az
municipal politics. An element heretP =
fore looked upon as insignificant or inf-
possible has manifested vitality ard no
tency, and must hereafter be cOnsiGsted
as factor in politics. -
The American born sons of CHINESE
nave commenced to claim and exercise
the rights and privileges of citizenship,
says the Call What kind of citizen they
Will make is not all conjecture. They
feel that they are regarded as Ishmael-
ites-strangers in the land against whom
every hand is lifted in menace. They
have their own rules and regard no laws
that are not approved by the Six Com
panies. Their oath in a court OF justice
carries little weight, and they furnish
much more than their share of defend
ants in the criminal courts.
Even if this were not the case they
would still be regarded as dangerous citi-
zens, for they would have no interest
in the welfare of the general public, and
would fall into the hands of the bosses.
This. was demonstrated at the last cleo
ton.
Two years ago three of four Chinese
four of the several hundred pig-taiIed
natives of the state who had the rigEs
to vote. They were treated with scant
courtesy at the booths, and two of them
The effort to get into politics was renew
ed this year, and the thin end of the
entering wedge was fairly inserted.
The son of the late DR.. Ii Pc Tai, who
aspires to be a leader in Chinatown, was
among the first who voted in his pre-
cinct of the Forty-third district Thir-
teen other Mongolians voted at the same
booth. and with one exception, if they
and the guides can be believed. they
voted for the Republican candidates. 10
exception was Suey All Lee, an ins
ance agent, who is an impenetrabf be -End
ndeStructibe Democrat. In another PIE
cinct the Chinese votes were cast fS&
Sutro. who is called by the irreverenI
pagans. Sea Lion Bossee."
Interpreter Huff says that there are
fully 500 Chinese in this city who have
the right to vote. and declares they will
vote at the next election. This years
work was regarded by the Chinese as eX-
perimental. and they are well pleased
with the result.
The interpreter says that many of
thess Chinese voters were born in min
ing camps, and are well known to white
citizens as natives of the state. All who
voted this year were known to be Cali
fornians and every one of them could
read English. But as no complete rec
ords of Chinese births have been kept in
the city or elsewhere it will be imposs-
BILE to tell when a Chinese appears for
registration hereafter whether he is a
native or not and election officers will be
to accept the evidence of men
to whom false swearing has no terrors.

only the one chair in his room, and
though advised by his chamberlains to
make use of more comfortable seat
he continues to use the old one. At
about p. m. he takes a bath, undreSs-
ing himself with his own hands, after
which he again dons his uniform and
dimes. He then takes up work again,
which is continued until supper. Hay-
ing many matters still to attend to,
he does not retire to bed as rule until
past midnight Since his majesty has
taken up his headquarters at Hiroshi-
ma he has left his room only three
times-first, when he visited Kueve;
second, when the prizes taken at the
battle of Phyong Yang were arranged
for his inspection near the corridor of
his room; and. third, when he person
ally conducted the opening ceremony
of the extraordinary session of the
diet. The court physicians frequently
advise him to take exercise, but he
disregards all such remonstrances
Fortunately, his strong constitution
stands this unusual strain well, and
he is as healthy and hearty as ever.

Much Indignation has been existing
among the japanese by the discovery
OF telegram sent from Yokohama to
London and published in European

a gunboat to be dispatched for the
protection of British subjects, whose
llVes are alleged to be in danger. The
only possible purpose of such a tele-
gram IS to wantonly throw discredit
upon Japan. The lives and property
of foreigners in Yokohama ana
throughout the empire, were never
safer than at present. Even the Chi

My coming causes you surprise.
You cry aloud n fly away
On wings that glitter as they rise:
80 blue are they, so skyey clear,
UneQualed bliss their beaming brings;

Whose eyes are bright as luebird's wings.
From covert groves glides forth a trill
OF wild birds singing Justify,
Yet while l list m thoughts will still
Seek her who Is most dear to me,
For. oh, her soft and soothing voice
Sounds merricr thar the leaping throng
Of waters when spring rills rejoice
Its music mates the linnet's song.
Upon u bourgconed white birch broad

Until, by my rude spaniel awed,
She higher mounts on hasty feet:
And as she BOUNDS without a fall
From lower limbs TO limbs above
Her agile motions well recall
The f1Nke-light footballs of my love.
