A member Of the bar addressed
the District Magistrate last Satur-
day aud censured the police for its
actions in regard to Chinese gam
blers. 1t was claimed that tho
police authorities make raids ON
Chinese gambling houses and when
the prisoners appear in Court, enter
a nole proSeqati, as a rule, in regard
to the majority OF the offending
Chinese by having one or two Of the
more prominent celestisls pleading
guilty. The attorney, who entered
a protest against such a practice is
right. Ii one man among the gang
arrested for gambling is guilty, the
other members of the gang are
equally liable in the eye OF the law
No discrimination should be made
by those who are paid to uphold the
laws Of the country, aud the present
method, which savours of corrup.
ton, should be checked and ahan-
doned. We have no doubt that the
speech TO the bench OF the lawyer
referred to, which was heartily ap-
plauded by all his colleagues pre-
sent, will have good effect, and
that our virtuous Attorney General
will lose no time in instructing
his subordinates to prosecute who
ever is guilty and leave I heir punish
meut solely to the mercy of the
magistrates who dispense law if not
justice 10 the courts Of the Republic.

Jailer Low in an interview with
representative of the official organ
explains the "other side" in regard
to the alleged outrage on prisoner
referred to in yesterdays issue of
The INDEPENDENT. The prisoner who
was injured was young Fitzgerald,
and it appears that he greatly pro-
voked Sam Stone, the guard, who it
is alleged by the witnesses of the
affair committed the outrage. Stone
is good, honest, and quiet Hawai-
ian, and we are willing to accept his
version of the affair, aud at the same
time suggest to the Attorney Cen
eral to fully investigate the matter
and find out what "Stone" it was
which hurt Fitzgerald, The Gov
ernment, however, has never yet
shown any willingness to investigate
any actions Of its minions,

was first placed on the market, and through
its excellence soon became q general favOrite
Another brand-"Olympic"-h lately been
added, and with "Rainier" they make good
pair to draw to- Both are the product of the
very best materials, and being manufactured
after the most approved methods, enables the
Seattle Brewing and Mailing Co. to offer to
the public superior article of Bottled Lager
Beer, combining the most palatable qualities
of refreshing drink with the inyigorating
and wholesome properties OF the best malt
extracts, thus presenting desirable beverage
alike to invalds and healthy persons.
Numerous cheap goods are offered to at
tract custom, but their very price brands
them with the stamp of inferiority.. They
must of necessity be made of doubtful mate
rial and in consequence of Inferior quality,
their consumption may even be deleterious
to health.
The Criterion Saloon sees the advantage of
having a irst-elass beer on draught; the Raj
nier or Seattle Beer, as 1t Is Familiarity called,
has had very large sale since II has been on

The California University Will send
aParty 60 Japan.
There will be total eclipse of
the sun on August LIST of this year,
and the Board of Regents of the
University Of California will send
a scientific expedition to Japan to
witness it. The scene of the total
ity of the eclipse will be on the
eastern shore of the most northern
island of the japanese groupe, far
from civilization, and the expedi-
ton will have to take its own sup
plies. 1t will be in charge of
Professor Shaeberle, assisted by
DIR. l.. G. Mastin of the Lick OBJ
servatory and DR.. Burckhalter OF
the Oakland schools.
Regent G. f. Croker of the
University has generously volun-
teered to pay all the steamship
fares of corps of astronomers
from the Mount Hamilton Obser-
vatory who will pay their own ex-
penses, other than the fares, but
those of DIR. Burckhalter, he not
being salaried State employee,
will have to be paid from the uni
versity fund. The japanese Gov
eminent has promised to supply
an interpreter, and otherwise as
sist the party while pursuing its
labors in the empire. The expe-
dition will use instruments from
Mount Hamilton, with the excep-
ton of 40-foot lens, which must
be purchased for the occasion, it
not being advisable to take the
one now in use at the observatory.
A special instrument for photo
graphing the solar corona and a
new method of developing the
pictures thus taken will also be
used by the observers.
The party will leave for japan
about June and be on the ground
to observe the eclipse August l..
They may make arrangements so
as to stop over one steamer in
Honolulu.

O. ID. JONES.

The withdrawal of the populist NOM
inee in favor of Lon v. Stephens
assures the election of the democratic
nominee by D large majority.
The letter of withdrawal stamps Mr..
Jones, its author, as an American
citizen who stands erect for principle
and who can look over a six foot wall
of party prejudice. 1t takes the can
didate from The pale of party politics
and lands him in the hearts of the
people as a patriotic citizen.
Mr.. Jones is an able man, he is an
honest man, and above it all he is n
man whom the people of Missouri can
rest assured will discharge the highest
duties of citizenship under any and all
circumstances.
Mr.. Jones and Mr.. George Wilson
set two good examples for politi-
clans of the future to emulate when n
great battle for the people is being
waged. Verify these W. gentlemen
have recognized what every American
must realize, viz, that this is
not the year in which to practice
partisan politics.

UNDER AND OyERpRoDUcrIoN

When tho republicans and gold dem
ocrats were bowling themselves hoarse
to get the Sherman law repealed, they
told the American farmer that tt
cluse of his hard times was that he
had nothing to sell. The prevailing
cry of the gold bug was that hard
times was due to underproduction.
Many who had not then studied the
subject, were caught in the trap, cum
ningly devised, and were inclined to
look with favor upon the financial
policy of MIR. Cleveland. Had there
been any truth in this argument, the
United States today would be enjoying
an era of prosperity that would have
been unequaled in the history of the
world, and the gold standard would
have met with the benedictions of the
people.
But the reverse is true. The last
two crops of the farm have been album
dant. All the farmer has had to do
was to tickle the soil, and 1t brought
forth bounteous harvest. But the hard
times are still with us. The farmer
has or did have plenty to sell. But
there was no market. Wheat sold at
40 cents, corn at Is cents and all the
other products of the farm went below
cost of production.
The gold standard advocate met a
new condition of things. To beguile
the American voter INTO casting his
ballot for the gold standard, the gold
man must invent some other theory for
hard times. After laborIng with the
question for awhile he brought forth
the doctrine of overproduction. And
he has been riding this hobby since the
campaign opened. In steptorlan tones
he has cried from every stump,
production"
But the cry won't work. The FARM
ers of this country know that there are
4 ,oo0, 900 tramps in this country
who are ready to exchange labor for
food and raiment. They know the
hard times are due TO underconsump-
tion. They have looked into the
causes and they find that the gold
standard is at the root of the whole
business. The cry of undeFproduotion
served to some extent the purpose OF
the gold man in 1898, but that of over
production will avail HIM naught in
this year Of grace.
