S street, but 1t is too small is broken
and choked, and receives inflow at right
angles to the course of its current, and
in high waters thus chokes itself, while
it is set upon a wrong grade line. and
by reason of its hight prevents the max
ing of grades to it that would accelerate
the flow of supply This matter is one
of much Importance.
The friend Of a complete sewerage
system and its present advocate for
years, the Record Union" finds moth
ing in the present plan that antago-
nizes its desire. It is in harmony with
it; it is a necessity; it is positive econ
omy, and will be a permanency. AS it
will require a two-thirds vote to author
ize the new construction, the people
should study it, understand it and vote
for it, that it may have the necessary
affirmative ballots, and that the work
of it's construction may at once begin,
that completion may be attained before
the winter rains set in. Our belief is
that this construction will so enhance
property values on the whole south
side and as to really equalize the cost
of the drain, and that the city assess
ment roll will reflect the Improvement
another year.

The socialists in their London AS
sembly refused admission into their con-
vention to the anarchists and those
worthless thereupon broke into the gall
leries Of the hall with force, and pro-
ceeded to demonstrate their theories,
namely, that there should be no re-
straint of law whatever, but that each
man should be left to his own judgment
as to how to conduct himself towards
others and towards the whole COM
munfty The first days session of the
socialists was practically broken up by
the bowling and the interruptions of the
anarchists. These people were in the
main foreigners, and the dispatches tell
US that this fact hardened the English
and Americans against them But the
refusal of the socialists to admit the
anarchists to seats was based on prin-
ciple. Conservative socialism Is at the
opposite pole from anarchism; the one
doctrine demands that all things pro-
ceed and have their being under an or
der Of government, while the other in
sists that all government is wrong, and
all restraint by law a crime against hu-
man freedom.

.SALTER WORDEN Will HANG.
That is, Unless Executive LenienCy be
lnterpoSed.
The Supreme Court Affirms the
Judgment of the Lower
Tribunal.

Nothing but the interposition of the
Executive power can now prevent Sal
ter D. Worden from being hanged for
the murder of Railroad Engineer Sam
Clark and the four soldiers who We're
killed by the wrecking of train in
Yolo during the railroad strike two
years ago this month.
The Supreme Court yesterday handed
down a decision on the appeal in which
it affirmed the decision of Judge Grant
of Yolo County, before whom Worden
was tried in October, 1894, when he
was convicted of murder in the first
degree, with the death penalty at
tached.
The judgment- was entered sentenc-
ing Worden to death on November 16
1894, and his attorneys on November
10Th filed a notice of appeal and mo-
ton for a new trial.
The case was appealed on the ground
Of certain exceptions in the charge
given to the jury by Judge Grant, but
the higher court has decided that no
proof was furnished to show that the
evidence does not sustain the verdict
Worden was charged with others in
having attempted to prevent the trains
of the Southern Pacific to which the
Pullman cars We're attached from being
moved over the tracks Of the company.
He was charged with having loosened
the rails on the Sacramento trestle, and
also with weakening the treStle upon
which the rails were laid on the 18th
of July, 1894, with a view of preventing
the movement Of the train on which
Clark wa acting a a0pinaar
The evidence furnished by the Dis
trict Attorney went to show that by
the aid of explosives Worden and his
assistants so successfully loosened the
rails and weakened the trestle that
While Clark's train, en- route from Sac
ramento, encountered the spot where
Worden had executed his work, it was
derailed and precipitated into the water
underneath, thereby causing Clark to
lose his life.
The decision is in general q review of
the instructions to the jury by the trial
Judge.
One of the strongest points made in
Worden's defense was the introduction
of number Of witnesses to prove he
was in Sacramento at the time of the
accident, and consequently inhibited,
and that the Judge used these words in
his charge: when a defendant under
takes to establish an alibi the evidence
which he offers, taken with other evil
dence in the case, must account for
him during the whole period
The defense objected to this phras-
ing on the ground that it did not in
clude all the proposition Of reasonable
doubt
In upholding the course of the lower
court the decision says: 'It is not to
be expected that all limitations of a
principal will be given in every sepa-
rate sentence of a charge, and in the
case at bar the doctrine of reasonable
doubt was given in all conceivable
forms, and made applicable to every
phase of the case.
Moreover, it is plain from the evil
dence introduced by the appellant and
the instructions asked by him that he
presented his case entirely upon the
theory that he did not do the appall-
ing acts ascribed to him, and did not
participate in such acts-not that the
acts If proven would not constitute
murder in the first degree"

The radical silver men make a mis-
take when they assail the Republican
party as an enemy of silver. So far
from being at enrnity with silver mon
ey the party is insistent and sincere in
its declaration that both silver and gold
shall have legal recognition. In short,
the Republican party is party of true
bimetallsm. 1t differs from the free
silver men only in the matter of method
in securing the largest necessary vol
ume of silver currency for the exchange

In the 80 years that DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets have been sold, hundreds of thou
sands of people have taken them, and have
been cured by them. There is no longer
any possible question of their efficacy.
They are the product of experience, tried
by time. They are intended to cure con-
stipation. They are good for men, wo-
men and children. They are tiny, sugar
coated granules, very easy to take, very
quick in their action. One Pellet" is a
gentle laxative, two Pellets" mild
cathartic. A great many people make
the mistake of sandbag4ing their d.
gestive organs. They take some strong
and violent medicine, which creates
worse troubles than it cures. Strong
purgatives shock the system unnecessar-
lily, and they do not cure constipation.
Constipation Is thing that makes peo-
pie listless and languid; makes their
breath bad; wakes them up with foul
taste in their mouths; puts black spots
before their eyes; makes them dizzy;
causes headache makes them bilious
produces pimples and blotches-runs into
all sorts OF serious consequences All this
Is cured by DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets

Four of the Transvaal raiders have
been convicted and sentenced to short
terms of Imprisonment without hard
labor. While the men themselves ap-
pear to think they get off easily, out
side opinion is divided aY to the SEN
tences being harsh or lenient. The Eng
lish press appears to think the sem
tences about severe enough, while some
of the Cabinet is reported as looking
upon them as too heavy. That the men
were convicted at all is surprising; that
they will suffer much by their brief i'm
prisonment no one expects. Yet these
men with force and arms invaded an
independent State, caused the shedding
of human blood and the loss of many
human lives The English Government
was the real offender Backing as it
did the South African Company and
standing ready to take the plunder had
the raid succeeded, it becomes the real
reason for the offenders not being more
severely punished England would
seem to be prepared at any time to
seize a weaker State on the slightest
pretext, and when for very shame 1t
dare not do SO by it's own action, 1t COW
ers it's design behind chartered COM
pany.

The Weather Service people, who are
nothing If not exact and scientific, are
particularly desirous that the people
shall cease to confuse the terms cyclone
and tornado. The storm manifesto
tions are, they say, radically different,
and that the people shall be well in
formed of this fact they hold it neces-
sary to intelligent reading of the
weather reports The cyclone covers a
very large area of territory, from 800
to 1900 miles. The exact center of this
kind of a storm is comparatively calm,
and the air currents of the cyclone are
comparatively uniform. Their velocity
is from forty to ninety miles, and there
is a steady rotary motion about the
center, while the progressive motion is
from twenty five to thirty-fve miles an
hour. But a tornado covers relatively
a small area of country. It may be as
narrow as twenty feet, and its velocity
of movement is incOnceivably great.
The tornado may not travel more than
fifty feet before it breaks up, or it may
continue for 200 miles or more. Instead
of it's most destructive power being
peripheral it is central. The tornado
forms quickly and as quickly ceases.
Several tornadoes may travel In
bunch or near to each other on parallel
lines, but cyclones have not that pc
cUliarity. The awful force of the tor
nado has never been measured, it is only
estimated, for there is no device yet in
vented that with any degree of ac-
curacy will ascertain its force. Another
popularity Of the tornado is that it is
always accompanied by lightning, rain
and hail. These distinct chara cteristics
being kept in mind by the people,
the Weather Service folks feel conf
dent that citizens will be able to recog-
nize a tornado when they meet one, and
distinguish IT'S grander and less fitful
colleague, the cyclone.

AND REGISTRATION.
An Insult to Any Self Res
pecting Man.
In FAVOR OF ACT FOR ALIENS.
Hawaiians Should Not be Compelled
to Register-Dimculty Caused by
OrientaI-StrinGent Labor Law Ne
cessary-Objects to Thumb Mark.

Mr.. EDITOR:-Why is The registra-
ton of native Hawaiians and citizens
of the Republic necessary?
We admit that registration as con-
Quoted in other countries and for like
reasons is desirable here, and no one
objects to such methods for our home
population. But there is a species OF
degradation attaching to the thumb
tional escutcheon so long as the con-
ditions making it necessary are allowed
to continue as part of the policy of this
Government. | know there are some
who feel no compunctions in placing
their seal thusly, and where man is
illiterate it may do service in other
ways than merely for registration; but
a majority of the electorate of this Re-
public, as we'll as of native Hawaiians,
feel a repugnance at thus registering
themselves.
This feeling is intensified and grows
to a conviction when we fathom the
conditions above alluded to, and the
cause of their creation.
All references to equal rights in con-
place when the mass of natives and citi-
zens are called upon to thus forfeit the
personal liberty vouchsafed them by
the constitution, in order that a class
may enjoy exceptional opportunities
for the accumulation of wealth.
Our President at a recent meeting of
the Board of Health, when quarantine
measures were under discussion, voiced
the following sentiment: "A country
is justified in doing anything for its
protection" 1 am sorry sprinkling Of
that sort of salt did not find it's way
into his message to the Legislature in
regard to our future relations with
Oriental nations.
AS a nation we must, ere long, face
the issue and force a change in the
present immigration policy, or OUR in
heritance in this Paradise of the Pa
cific is doomed.
Some fools will delude themselves
with the hope of a solution of the diff
ficulty through annexation to the Unit
ed States, but the very indecisiOn
prompted by such false hopes will be
our ruin.
Mr. Editor, as a citizen of this coun-
try l claim to have some rights that an
alien is not entitled to. 1 claim free
dom from bearing the onus which their
acts have brought on our community.
Legislate thumb marks, photographs,
cheek brands or anything else you may
deem desirable for aliens, and treat
them all alike if necessary, but for the
sake of all that makes the burdens of
citizenship bearable, don't inf1ict this
humiliation on the men who have
stood by this Government and hoped
to be building it for liberty and equality.
AS one of these l humbly protest
against the enforcement Of the thumb
mark brand in the registration of citi-
zens of the Republic or of native Ha-
waiians.
