A scopcHrR FROM WASHINGTON

The Washington Mirror Of July
20 has the following:
William NJ. jenkins, formerly OF
Ohio, later Of Kansas, but now Of
Oklahoma, was recently appointed
governor Of that territory. He
will have to be confirmed by the
senate next winter, or else step
down and make way for some one
else. That jenkins will be reject
ed by the senate seems almost Ger.
tain, as he has started his admins
tratiOn In almost a riotOus manner
He had hardly warmed the execu-
tive chair before be began the task
Of recognizing" the public school
system, by appointing strict parti-
sans, in harmony with his own po-
ltical ideas, to professorships in
all Of the normal schools. II there
is one thing more than another
that the orderly American citizen
desires to keep ont 81 politics it is
the public schools, and this the
citizens Of Oklahoma, irrespective
Of pafty, say they will do whether
jenkins happens to be in or ont Of
the official saddle. Governor Jen-
kins and a lot of other Oklahoma
politicians recently spent about two
weeks in Washington, their mis-
ssion here being for the purpose Of
getting hold OF the school fund Of
the territory.
II the story | hear is true, that
the school fund is TO be diverted to
building up a political machine, 4"
instead Of being used TO educate
the youn gsters of Oklahoma, there
is going to be trouble, aud more
than Governor jenkins will be able
TO cope with. ! hear it said that
the president and Secretary Hitch
cock are thoroughly disgusted with
Governor Jenkins, aud will sooner
or later call him down for the high
| handed manner in which he is run
ming his office. The man who vii
mix politics with the public schools
should not be confirmed by th,
senate. and it is very likely tina
Governor Jenkins will get tn,
, worst of it when that body sits il
> Judgment on his case.
Governor jenkins was formerl!
secretary of the territory, whicl
yielded him revenue straight an'
otherwise Of about $4,000 per an
< mum The goyeruorship pays bu
l 50 600 per annum. IL is quit
! probable that he saw his way clea
q to make more money as the eXecu
n tive of the territory than as it

Cling with the school fund. Jen

a decamp. There is an uprising o

Gus, have joined the many tribes or
degraded aborigines and completely
affiliated themselves with the tribes.
When questioned by white men they
give various explanations for their
course of action. but, as a rule, their
pretext is that they are following the
tribes in the expectation of acquiring
knowledge that will assist them in
the discovery of gold. While very
plausible, this pretext is easily ex-
ploded, for it is known that these men
have been SO reduced in circumstances
and their manhood has been SO drained
in consequence that they do not find in
the life of the aborigines anything
worse than they have been accustomed
to. Their conduct may also in part be
attributed to the entire absence of
charitable institutions in western Aus
tralia, which is due to the vain but
disproven conceit of the people of
western Australia that the generosity
Of private individuals is great enough
to provide for everyone.
Recent rioting in Coolgardie, at
which stores were looted, is measure
of the desperation of the people on the
gold fields. What must ensue unless
immediate relief is afforded can be
readily guessed at-namely, grave dis
turbance at the principal camps and 4
clash with the government.
Lord Hopsten. governor general OF
the Australian confederation, has
massed the troops in the principal
cities to be ready for possible emer-
gency. This is a queer method Of
feeding starving people-with bullets.

LAND OF THE DRAGON.
Belief in This Unsightly Creature
General In China.


In China the belief in dragons is gen.
eral. There are good and bad dragons
in that land, and while it is easy to
gain dragons favor it is just as easy
to irritate him. Some dragons live un-
derground. Others fly In the air. Thus
earthquakes are caused by under
ground dragons moving themselves
tempestuously. Eclipses are caused by
aerial dragons, wherefore fireworks are
set off and gongs are beaten to fright
en- them. The overfiowing of rivers Is
imputed to specially bad dragon
named Kiao. One of the Oldest Chinese
books, the Calendar of the Hia, recon-
mends in cases of inundation that the
authorities organize a hunt through
the country to discover and capture the
dragon. They always find him. They
tell a great dragon story Of the pres
ent young Emperor. Some time ago
there were drouth and famine in an i'm
portant section of the north. AS. in
spite of many professions in his honor,
the dragon continued to withhold the
rain, the indignant Emperor at last
hurled a laundering edict condemning
him to perpetual exile along the shores
of the river Hi. in the province of Tor
got. officials had started to find the
dragon and execute the sentence upon
him, when the latter. with touching
resignation, sent word-they do not say
how-that he had started already for
the desert Of Tartary. Such an exam
pie of obedience melted the heart" of
the Pekin Supreme Court. The solemn
mandarins got together and threw
themselves at the feet of the Emperor.
Spare the dragon!" they begged. The
young Emperor was touched in his
turn. The sentence of Punishment was
revoked. and one of the imperial mes
sengers was sent galloping across the
land to overtake the dragon and ac-
quaint him with his good luck. He
found the dragon, and the grateful ami
NAL Immediately sent abundant rain.
