RENEWAL OF CHINESE EXCLUSION.

Next May the Chinese exclusion acts
handed people of California are al
ready engaged in a vigorous agitation
for their extension. Probably this
movement Will be successful, but it's
chances seem to be somewhat jeopar-
died by the intolerant attitude Of
some of its supporters. In places where
people turn upon the streets to stare
after a quiet Chinese laundryman the
source of the intense feeling against
his race is not understood, and the
whole opposition to Chinese immigra-
ton is set down to unfounded preju-
dice. The supporters of the present
movement would, therefore, do well to
abate the violence of their language,
and argue their case on its merits.
That there are good reasons for renew
ing the present laws becomes evident
on slight reflection.
The objection to unrestricted Chi
neSe immigration rests upon the as
sumption that large number of Chi
namen would come into the country if
they could do so freely. The rapid in
crease In the number of immigrants
before the passing of the exclusion
acts seems to show that this assump-
ton is just. That the presence of such
a large body of Cinnamon would be
undesirable. at least from the political
point of view, is generally admitted.
A government is not truly one of the
people when there is a vast mass Of
inhabitants who are alien sojourners
and not citizens. On the other hand
perhaps no one desires to give China
men the ballot. We already have a
great may ignorant voters in our
cities, and experience does not incline
US to increase their number. No one
is properly qualified for the suffrage
who has not some appreciation of the
principles of popular government, and
in this one department of life, at least,
the Chinaman does not seem to be an
apt scholar.-Chicago Tribune.

Had an IntercessOr.

The Rev. j. Wilbur Chapman recent
ly told of one of his friends who was a.
boyhood companion of Robert Lincoln.
He entered the Civil War and went to
the front. When Robert Lincoln
found that he was a private soldier.
he said to a friend, Write, and tell
him to write to me, and | will inter-
cede with father, and get him some
thing better The young soldier said:
L never took advantage OF the offer,
but you do not know what a comfort
it was to me. Often after q weary
march l would throw myself on the
ground and say. If it becomes beyond
human endurance, 1 can write to Bob
Lincoln and get relief; and l would
rather have his intercession than that
of the Cabinet, because he is a son."

Luke E. Wright as temporary COVER
nor of the Philippine Islands, may
eventually be made permanent At
present Judge Taft is i'll and the duties
OF the Office had, of necessity, to be
placed in other hands. AS a member
of the Philippine Commission, Luke
Wright was a natural successor. Now
II is said that Taft and Gen. Chaffee
are not wholly in accord, and that,
even in the event of the formers
speedy recovery, it is not at all certain
that he will resume his former posi-
ton.
For the present, at least, Luke
Wright is an interesting figure in pub
lie affairs and he may be for some
time to come.

The Church of the Holy Sepulcher
was originally built after the visit of
Empress Helena to Jerusalem. 1t is
supposed TO mark the spot where the
body of Jesus lay for three days in the
tomb. 1t is an ugly building of mixed
architecture, surrounded by a heavy
dome. Many relics, supposed to have
been corrected with the crucifixion,
are preserved in the building, and the
place is one of the most interesting
sights in Palestine The Latin and
Greek Catholics early began their
quarrels over the right to use the
church. A Turkish guard has been
maintained there for years to keep the
peace.

trees in Gippsland, Victoria, was
felled at a distance of twenty feet
from the ground. The wood of these
trees is very soft when growing, and
when newly cut down, but hardens
when it is dead. In this tree, while
the wood was still soft, the stump
was followed out, openings for doors
and windows were cut, and a roof was
placed upon it. In this way a room
was formed, said to be twenty-five feet
in breadth, and capable of accommoda-
ting fifty people. Religious services
have frequently been held there, the
people for miles around assembling out
or curiosity; but this curiosity has led
to blessing, and a movement is now
on foot for erecting a substantial
church.
