A Bismarck Anecdote.

When he was young man Bismarck
was for some time an official reporter for
one of the courts of justice. In those
days his temper sometimes got the better
of him; but, upon one occasion at least,
his wit saved him from disgrace. This
was when questioning witness. The
latter made an impudent retort, where
upon the embryo Chancellor ex claimed,
angrily, "If you are not more respectful
1 shall kick you out of the room!"
"Young man." said the Judge, interrupts
ing the proceedings, II would have you
understand that this Is dignified court
of justice, and that if there Is any kicking
to be done the court will do it!'' "Ah,
you see," said Bismarck to the witness,
''if you are not more respectful to me the
court will kick you out of the room. So
be careful, very careful, sirv'-W estmin-

of this syndicate chose one of their num-

purpose of capturing an American heir

sentative for year with money TO make
a creditable appearance In American So
ciety, he agreeing. on his part, that. after
the capture was made and the cash OF the

said the lady from Boston. "Did any of
them succeed?"
The clubman smiled teasingly. He
would say neither "Yes" nor "No"; so
each of his hearers answered the question
for herself, and no two answers agreed.

Mr.. L. l.. GooDKIN in his monograph,
Diplomacy and the Newspaper" says
that the medium through which the
newspaper acts most effectively on the
enthusiastic temperament is what is
known as 'true Americanism," or
thorough Americanism," or, better
than all, intense Americanism." But
though Mr.. Goodkin, himself an expert
enced newspaper man, has studied these
phrases with a view of finding out their
exact meaning, he declares that he has
not been able to get an exact definition
of them from any one who has used them
in good faith. We confess that it is only
with difficulty, since he has brought the
subject to the front, that we can satisfy
our own understanding with definition.
But it seems now to US that by "Amer-
icanism'' is meant faith in and loyalty to
American institutions and doctrines, as
ontradistinguished from those of other
countries. Mr.. Goodkin is sure that it
means more than content with the coun-
try and its laws, manners and morals.
He ia inclined to believe that 1t is really
an expression of readiness to take offense.
That is to say. by Americanism, then, as
defined by Goodkin, we mean chip
upon our shoulder, and the latter ele-

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
An Unknown Man Killed Near Hang
town Crossing.

An Unknown Man Killed Near Hang
town Crossing.
An old man named Simon was
killed about mile east of HangtOwn
Crossing, or Mills Station, by last even
ing's outgoing train for Placerville. AS
the trainmen went on to Placerville and
will not return until this morning, no
particulars of the accident could be
learned last night.
Deputy Coroner Craig went out to the
spot, some fourteen miles from the city,
and brought in the body. All that he was
able to learn of the deceased was that his
given name was Simon; that he was dis
charged from the County Hospital about
three months since, and latterly had been
working for a farmor named McConnaha
in the vicinity.
1t appears that last evening he was en-
gagged in herding cattle along the railroad.
Some Of the cows got on the track as the
train was coming along, and he was try
ing to drive them off. He ran upon the
track just as the train reached him, and
was struck by the locomotive and killed.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

If the rumor concerning Hawaii is true,
namely, that the republic Is about 10 collapse
and the monarchy come to its own again, the
result may be the practical conquest by the
Japanese of the island domain. This. If it
occurs, will be deplorable. The Japanese as
rulers over their own are we'll enough, but
they are an unsolved problem as executors In
a foreign land. If it happens that the repub-
lie is overthrown, If the little handful of
Americans in Hawaii have grown weary of
the struggle and desert the native Republi-
cans and the few others who have so man.
fully stood by the new order of things, there
will come a speedy day OF reckoning at the
bar of which the United States Government
will be arraigned. If the islands come again
under the Hawaiian monarchy it will mean
that Japan or Great Britain will dominate
the ruler and her cabinet, and the United
States will lose completely the position we
ought to occupy in relation to the "Key Of the
Pacific"

mere arrest is not even presumptive
of guilt, and hence we hold that the citi-

common malefactor, and this wholly re-

PROFESSOR HOLMES declares that fifty
years hence two thirds of the work now
imposed upon men and women will be
taken off their hands-it is TO be done by
electricity. That is comfortable, or not,
as we choose to view it. If he means
that we are to have nothing to do in
stead, it will be bad; If 1t is to give us
greater leisure for more profitable en-
ployment of our time, it will be good.
But we recall that the books and the
fathers tell US that fifty years ago the
same prophecy as to taking labor off OF
hands was made as to steam. What has
been the truth? Why, that steam has in
creased human activity, enlarged en-
ployments, and put ten pairs of hands at
work for every one employed in the
same field without it.

THE Hartford CourGnt says that the
is the freeman's vote. True, true, and
with that high estimate let US place this
that the most reckless sacrifice and the
the most inexcusable and objectionable
bargaining is the sale of that vote. OF
course, the buyer of that vote is beneath
consideration; he is too vulgar barterer
for contempt; detestation and spurning
for him. But as for the seller, his crime
is so monstrous that really it is difficult
to conceive of adequate punishm
for it.

which we now submit to our readers are
these: Is Mr.. Goodkin right? Is that
what Americans mean by Americanism?
Is it loyalty to or glorifying in American

THE fact that white man was taken
from Jail on the 10th inst. in Kentucky
town and hanged by mob Of indignant
citizens. for the crime of rape, goes to dis
prove the claim that the people of the
South discriminate in their vengeance so
IS to give the white man immunity from
mob law and insure violence to the negro
offender. Doubtless color has had q
good deal to do in prejudioing the whites
in the South against negroes charged
with crime, and doubtless neg roes have
been lynched in the South who were
guiltless of wrongdoing, and hanged by
mobs on the mere assertion OF white ac-
cusers without corroborating testimony.
But 1t is also true as the lynching of the
10Th in Kentucky proves, along with
many other instances that might be cited,
that the sentiment in the South against
such foul and infamous crimes as rape is
as keen and the demand for punishment
as imperative in the case of the white as
the black. II is possible that the white
offender may secure the protection of
friends more readily. or have better facili-
ties for escaping. but we apprehend that
where an assault to rape is committed in
the South the public sentiment about it is
the same whether the offender be white
or black

PEOPLE are apt to deceive themselves
in thinking in the line Of their prepos-
sessions and prejudices. For example,
our neighbors up at Dutch Flat pine for
the return of hydraulic mining. They
cannot impound debris, according to the
law, and make the industry pay. But if
all restraint were removed, it is extreme
ly doubtful if the working of those old
diggings would pay the expenses of the
monitors and the handful of miners two
thirds of whom would probably be China
mem for hydraulics, while concededly
the most destructive form of mining, is
the cheapest of all and contributes
the least to the welfare Of the community.
There is no doubt that Dutch Flat is
better off as drift-mining camp than it
could ever be if hydraulics were re-
sumed.

A druggist in Portland, Oregon. has been
held to answer for selling liquor without
license to do SO. Under the law druggist
may keep liquor necessary for compromising
prescriptions, but he must not sell it for any
other purpose. The druggist In question has
his place in a section where there are no sa-
looms or liquor stores. A man came in and
asked for flask of brandy. 1t was refused,
and then he began to plead that he had not
time to go away down town to get the brandy,
that his wife needed 1t at once in the family,
that he lived hard by and was well known to
the druggist. On this showing he was given a
small quantity in his flask for price. The
applicant turned out to be the stoolpigeon of
an officer. Cnder the circumstances, had we

mept of criminality, intention to violate the

based on plea of mercy, or charity, or
humanity. He did not sell the liquor in the

Then. too it was mean and scurrilous trick
that was played upon him. and because he
was imposed upon he should have been given
the benefit of the doubt about having enter

exports in July. China was
second and Germany third that
month. Ordinarily Australia
and the West Indies are heavy
buyers of chewing tobacco, but
their purshases were light in
July.
According to one of the tables
in the Governments recent to

more tobacco from us last year
than all the other countries Of
Europe put together. Belgium
was good second, her purchas-
es amounting TO over S11S, 200.
The United Kingdoms reached
$500 900 and British Australia
aias's S1,O00,00O. Next to chew
ing tobacco, our largest export
trade in manufactured tobacco
is in cigarettes. 1t amounted
last year to 81, 094 900. Eng
lands share was nearly u third
Of the whole Germany invest
ed about $4,000 in American
cigarettes; Denmark. $4,000,
and Norway and Sweden, near
ly $4,000. British Australasia
paid us S16S,000 for cigarettes:
Japan, s13S 900; China and
Hong Kong, $4,000, and the
BIRTHS colonies in africa, S1l6,-
600. The next largest purchas
ers not already mentioned were
the British East Indies-S41. :
010-and the British West In
dies $4,000.
England, too, smokes more
American cigars than any other
country. She paid Us last year
$1,000 for cigars. Hawaii III
vested about half as much in
the same way, as did also ri
caragaa. The purchases of
other countries We're much
smaller.
The report shows large gains

chewing tobacco and a small
decrease in our foreign trade in
American cigars.
