in spite of the bigotry OF ignorant men,
who are governed, not by political
thought, but by usage and custom, just
as the animals are governed, and the
degraded races are governed; in spite
of the refusal of many women to see
and recognize their exalted place in
social which is political, life, this
great scheme in the line of the eman-
cipatiOn Of women, has proved success
full. Behind the movement is some of
the best blood of the world, for New
Zealand is largely populated by the
younger sons of good English families.
They have met with sore trials. They
have suffered from their lack of ex-
perience in knowing the best conduct
of life. They have passed through the
speculative period of a nations life,
which demoralizes society, breaks up
home, makes happiness something TO
be hoped for, but not realized. And
now they have called women into a
share in the conduct of affairs, and
made their instincts and virtues ac-
tive political factors.

THE CHINESE EXCLUSION CASE.

The laymen desire to know the gist
of the decision Of the Supreme Court
in the Chinese habeas corpus cases. 1t
is this, and is expressed clearly, in the
conclusion of the opinion Of the Court:
That at the present time there are no
Federal Courts established in this Ter
ritory by Congress that can adjudicate
matters arising under the Federal laws,
of which the Chinese Exclusion Act is
one, and that the Hawaiian Courts, not
being Federal Courts, have no jurisdic-
ton in the case. The men detained
by Chinese Inspector Brown are left
in his hands, or if Collector McStocker
is, by operation of the Annexation law;
a Federal officer, they are left in his
hands.
The difficulty the Court meets with
in making any practical direction in
the matter is, that it has no power to
suggest or direct, for it has no jurisdic
ton. It cannot assume to pass upon
Collector McStocker's power under this
Federal law, and, of course, it cannot
direct the action of Chinese Inspector
Brown, because he holds Federal Of
fee.
This unfortunate situation is created
by the haste with which the AnneXa-
ton law was drawn. Covering, as that
law does, a great variety of interests
and relations, it is fortunate that there
are not more defects in it.
The decision of the Court leaves
Chinese Inspector Brown and Collect
or McStocker, if he now has Federal
side to his office, in an embarrassing
position.
They have these Chinese immigrants
on their hands. What will they do
with them? The Annexation Act does
not apparently give them the physical
means for executing the laws. There
is no Federal Marshal here, or Federal
policeman, to execute the orders of
these officers. We are considering the
legal situation only. The Marshal Of
these Islands may seize these immi-
grants or prevent them from landing,
but he has no authority to do so, as he
is not Federal officer. Nor can any of
the men connected with the customs
department act, for they are territorial
officers The Constitution does not pro-
vide for the holding of a Federal and
State office by the same person, when
there may be conflicting duties.
Until Congress acts it may be said
that there is no expressed law govern
ing these new relations of the Terri
tory to the Federal Government, and
the Judges must make" law as best
they can.
The case before the Court was one
in which there were excellent reasons
for deciding it either way. In the alb
sence of clear and intelligent legisla-
ton, such cases are not infrequent
Judges are required to construe laws
ana discover the intention" OF the
legislature, when, as matter OF fact,
it had no clear Intention" and passed
the law because it was recommended
by committee or the lobby.
Every considerable person, of course,
regrets the gross injustice done to the
Chinese who hold permits from our
Government to return.

FEMALE SUFFRAGE IN NEW
ZEALAND.

Sir Charles w. Dixie, one of the
ablest of British statemen in his new
book titled the British Empire"
gives this account of the working of
the law comforting the elective fran
chise upon the women Of New Zea-
land.
.sClose upon 80 per cent of all the
grown women of New Zealand are
electors, and in the majority of the
larger towns the women voters out
number the men. They vote in al
most as large proportion as the
men, and in three out of the four
largest towns in New Zealand at the
last election greatly more women
than men went TO the poll. OF those
who supported and of those who OPP
posed the reform both classes have
been surprised. 1t has failed to bring
about any marked change in the poll
teal circumstances of the country.
The temperance party forced on the
change, but they have not been much
pleased by its results, for the women
have voted pretty much as their men
folk voted before, and the Conserva
tives and the Liberals opposed to Pro-
hibitiOn have received as much pro-
portional support from the women
voters as have the Prohibitionists. On
the other hand, there can be no doubt
that the interest of women in politics
has been aroused, that a great impulse
has been given to the education of wo-
men, and to their participation in
public affairs, the conduct of which
they have improved. In New Zealand
as in South Australia, the enfranchise-
ment Of the women has not helped
that alliance of Churches-the Church
pf England, the Roman Catholic
Church, and the Wesleyan Church
which has worked against the secular
education system of the colony"
The remarkable fact about this ra-
dicaI change in the elective system is
that there is now no opposition to 1t.
It's creation was a bold move, but it Is
successful. 1t may now be said that

THREE BLACK MANTELS. :"

and Wednesday evenings OF this week.
Daily rehearsals have been conducted
for nearly two weeks, and when the
production is given Wheeling music
lovers will be surprised at its artistic
merit. The opera has not been sung on
the road on account of the necessity for
big cast and large chorus, and the
incidental heavy expense. The best
local talent will participate, and those
who have witnessed the rehearsals

BACCALAUREATE SERMON
Preached by the Rev. Joseph Spee-s to
High School Pupils,

The baccaulaureate sermon to the
class of 1899 of the public high school
was preached last night by the Rev.
joseph Speers, pastor of the Second
Presbyterian church. All the members
of the graduating class, and the mem
bers of the faculty, were present, as
well as many teachers and pupils of
the ward schools. II was an excellent
discourse, and but for the crowded con-
dition of the Register columns this
morning would be published in full.
Entering Life was the theme cho-
sen by the speaker, and he selected
his text from proverbs AIS, 26-.Let
thine eyes look right on, and let thine
eyelids look straight before thee, etc.
He commended the Bible as book to
make US wise unto salvation, and also
to serve as guide in our daily lives.
The text inculcates habit of consider
alton and forethought. The expert
ences of the past should serve as a
guide for the future. 1t is not posi-
BILE to ascertain particular events, but
to anticipate general conditions is pos
sible.
Success or failure depends largely
upon early PREPARATION. but there are
always new lessons to learn The
speaker reminded the members of the
class that they are no longer children,
and that their education must not stop
with the close of their school days.
The superstructure must be erected
upon the foundation which has been
built until. in the sunset of life, the
capstone may reflect the glory and
beauty of a rounded and useful life.
All should carry thirst for knowledge,
a habit of study, love of reading,
thinking and observing. Good books
are excellent companions.
The happiness and usefulness of life
depends largely on character. 1t is
the corner stone. Character will be
shaped by a genuine religious life, in
surfing the grandest success here, and
glory hereafter. The commencement
days have come in reality, the passing
from the school room to the battlefield
of life. Rules for guidance should be
laid down now, standards adjusted, and
purposes formed. 1t is of infinite con-
sequence to ''set the Lord always be-
fore YOU" Solomon's words "Remem-
Der now thy Creator in the days of
thy YOUTH are very pertinent.
