ANTI-sEMIrE BIGorRr.

san Francisco Can.
Following closely upon the action Of
the proprietors of the Hotel ROwarden-
nan in excluding Hebrews from that
place of resort zones the action of
Mayor PheIan at Kansas City showing
toward the Hebrews an animosi,y moro
offensive stin. The policy OF the Ro-
warlennan people is not peculiar to
them. A similar course has been TAX
en- by other hotel-keepers, and the
matter therefore was the occasion OF
no particular comment. Mayor Phe-
lan's insulting course toward his fell
low delegate, Charles Edelman. is.
however. something unparalleled and
cOmpels the attention of the press of
California.
However Insignificant Mr.. Phelan's
actions might be were he private eiu-
zen. they are matters of Importance
by reason Of his official position as
mayor Of the foremost city on the Pa
cific coast. An insult given by an Of
fetal Of such position to fellow dele
gate at national convention Is eer-
tain to attract wide attention. 1t will
be reported throughout the Union. and
unless it be promptly rebuked and con-
demned there may grow up in the
East a belief that among a considerable
number Of psople in San Francisco
there prevails something Of that sense
less aati-semite prejudice which has
been 50 disgraceful to Berlin and to
Paris.
With any private personal quarrel the
mayor may have with Mr.. Edelman the
public has little or no interest. When,
however. the mayor in a public place
such as a great national presidential
convention deliberately slurs a man be-
cause he is by race and religion a
Jew. then the public has something to
do with It. II appears from the re-
ports that Mr.. Edelman was address
ing the chairman OF the California dele
CATION and making courteous argu-
ment against a motion presented by
Phelan when the comtemptuous and
contemplate insult was given. The
wrong was therefore openly and pup
licIy done, and San Francisco has tc
face the reproach Of having a mayor
whose manners are not sufficiently good
to prevent him from showing before
the world so mean a prejudice and SC
vulgar a method Of expressing it.
Mr.. Edelman did not like to make
a scene by reseuting with a slap the
insult put upon him and his race. He
has the sympathy and the respect Of his
fellow delegates. with the exception of
The people of San Francisco
will share their indignation against
the Mayors action. 1t is the first time
that man representing California has
ever shown a desire to insult a nan
because Of his race or creed. and now
that the insult has been given by
one who represents the state not on
ly as mayor Of its chief city but as a
delegate TO the national convention of
his party. 1t becomes the duty Of all
men TO denounce the ac-
ton and the motives that inspired it.

JOHN
CHINAMAN'S
VIRTUES.

MIR. w. N. Lovatt, who has just re-
turned from China, where he has lived
for 40 years, has very high opinion
of John Chinaman. According to
him, 1.-THE Chinaman loves his coun
try. He is extremely patriotic. If the
people of some provinces have not yet
heard of their nations late war with
Japan. it's their ignorance that's to
blame, their lack of communication,
not their lack of patriotism.
1.-THE Chinaman is civilized, decid-
edly. although his civilization is Meth
err modern nor progressive. And the
Chinaman is a fine fellow personally.
I lived beside him for 40 years, and
must say like him. He's an honest
man on the whole, wonderfully honest
in business. He's three times more
honest than the Japanese, and three
times more of a man generally. The
Chinaman is peaceful, law-abiding. In
the majority of Chinese cities murder,
highway robbery or other violence is
extremely rare, considering the size
of the population.
"As for the Chinaman's commercial
honesty, l heard Even Cameron, man
ager of the great Hongkong and
Shanghai bank, say is years ago at
a banquet given by the foreign mer-
chants in Shanghai, that In all the
numerous transactions, involving mil
lions of dollars (Mexican). that his
bank had had with Chinese bankers,
