UNCONSCIOUS PRAISE.

Truth Seeker OF December 49, upbrald-
ing the editor Of that paper for publish

Schools" while in the same issue he
regards with nonchalance the growth
OF the Mormon Church" To this the
editor replies that I'VE knew nothing
about that Church which would make
1t less desirable than others" But Mr.
Livesey insists that the "Mormons are
the ones to be after; they represent
more superstition. church and state,
and general danger than the Catholic
at present" A significant part fol-

of superstition. Only about four per-

This is praise from an unexpected

THE GERMAN EXPEDITION.

Europe IL laughing at the bombastio
speech of Emperor William on the oc-
casion of the departure of the German
squadron for eastern Asia. As will be
remembered the Kaiser gravely told
his brother to strike with his mailed
hand anyone who should infringe upon
German rights. The patriotic press en-
tiers into the spirit of the solemnity
and speaks concerning the Germans
about to defend the cross and ENTER
ing upon a new era of conquest"
French papers are much amused at
this rhetoric. They argue that 1t is
grotesque, since the question is of
jaunt as free from danger as If 1t Were
arranged by Cooks excursion agencies.
The English papers take the same
ocular view. The Graphic does not
believe that either laurels or fists will
be in demand That paper sincerely
hopes that the elements win not have

DARK WAYS AND VAIN TRICKS.

The Pacific Christian Advocate shows
how the Chinese exclusion law works
In this country. When the law was
passed requiring the sojourners from
the celestial kingdom in this country
to take out certificate, 1t was sup
posed that the problem of the detection
of intruders had been solved, but it has
now been found out that the law mere
ly created a new and valuable COM
modify. Those certificates are worth
from fifty to seventy-five dollars each
and there are bureaus of exchange
where they are bought and sold.
The Advocate says.
The Chinaman who Is going to leave
for home and not return can sell his
certificate for enough to pay his fare
across the Pacific. But why pay fare
when 1t is so easy to be deported?
Here comes In the white man who be-
friends the Chinaman by reporting him
being without II certificate. He Is ar
rested. Where Is your certificate? asks
the unsuspeeting judge. NO have
got" Then back you go to China, Is
the verdict, and the meekness with
which John submits to enforced de-
portation Is n lesson in humility. Tie
only cost to him is a fee to his white

cate and put the officers on his track.
II Is the tax payer who is the loser in
this whole business of exclusion.

CITY or REFUGE NEEDED.

Kentucky has a murder trial that is
attracting attention because of n prin-
ciple involved. Some time last July
Jacob Harris killed his wife's lover,
Thomas II. Merritt Harris had .Gs-
pected his wife for some time and on
the evening of the tragic event followed
her for four hours armed with re
volver borrowed for the occasion. At
last he saw his rival sitting IN bench
In the park in company with his wife.
He watched them and then crawled up
behind them. When Merritt found
that he was watched he ran, but Har-
ris emptied his revolver at him and he
fol- dead about nifty yards from the
bench where he had been sitting The
wife left, too, before the enraged hus-
band could settle with her in the way
he intended to do.
At the ensuing trial Harris told his
story. Judge Falconer declared that
the crime was murder, but as Merritt
had destroyed Hurriss home and
wrecked his life, the act was iustih-
able under "a higher law than the
criminal code"
A few days ago the Fayette county
grand jury reversed this theory Of ,
'hlgher law than the criminal code
and indicted the slayer Of Merritt 70
