go, but by hard work it was finally
saved.
At this hour it is impossible to make

local government refused to allow Jap
anese immigrants TO land, because they
had no permits. The Japanese govern
ment claimed that this act was an
infringement of treaty rights, and, at
the suggestion of the Federal govern
ment, an indemnity of s75, 900 was paid
for violation OF these rights. Al
though there was no adjudication of
the matter the transaction showed that
the enforcement of the permit law was
practically regarded as illegal. Would
it not be clearly illegal now to enforce
that law, after the Act Of Annexation
has made supreme here the Japanese
American treaty, and theoretically, or
necessarily, the Federal laws regulating
its operation?

A COURT DRESS.

| Mark Twain, in the Forum, comp lains
of the use of the ''swallow-tail' coat
as a court dress by American diploma
tic and consular representatives abroad.
Secretary Marcy in 1858, instigated
by the indignation of the Democracy,
tives in the rich and gaudy costumes of
foreign parts, directed them to dress
in plain costumes. The American de-
tecting some resemblance between the
swallow-tail and the tail of the glor-
ious Bird of Freedom, at once chose
the emblematic costume. Howling
Americans who despise any servile imi-
tation of the customs and regulations
of the effete courts of Europe, have on
the other hand urged the use of the
dress of the native American Indian,
because it is picturesque, original as
the aboriginals are, defiant of rules, and
purely american
Secretary Marcy, incapable of grasp
choice Of plain dress to each repre-
sentative abroad. One of them design
ed his own costume.
He wore a bright-blue dress-coat,
with gilt buttons, a double breasted
waistcoat of crimson velvet crossed at
intervals of three or four inches with
green and yellow, broad stripes, and
his trousers were of black and white
plaid in checks of an inch or more
square.
This dress was a protest against
European effeminacy, and a proof of
the proud independence OF the Ameri-
can. But the State department did not
fully approve of it. 1t was regarded as
too muchly."
There must be a court dress of some
fashion for the American representa-
tives All condemn the .swallowtah."
Servile limitations of European fashions
are forbidden Let us then return to
the simple fashions of the early days.
Did not Milton speak Of Eve in the
Garden, as adorned the most, when
unadorned?"
Do not the athletes, stripped to the
waist, command more admiration than
those dressed in the fummery OF
courts? Are they not adorned the
most when unadorned?" Would it not
illustrate the simplicity and moral
grandeur of the people of the great
Republic, if its representatives appear
ed in the palaces of Europe and Asia
showing the human form divine down
to the belt? And let Congress, with its
usual display of good taste, order every
representative abroad to confront Euro
pean and Asiatic courts with this man
" dress of the athlete and upon the
forehead of each of them let the Star Oh
Empire be tattooed in blue, white and
red and "E Pluribus Unum' be also
tattooed across the breast.
The Constitution Of the United States
in the hands of a skilfull artist may
be microscopically tattooed on the skin
between the shoulder blades, and those
who have been distinguished and
honored by these official tattooes will
in time become the nobility of the Re-
public.
AS Mark Twain believes that the
