MR.. COLEMAN'S PETITION.
Topeka Man Wants Restriction of
Chinese Modified.

Rev. E. M Coleman of No. COS West
Eighth avenue, is circulating a memor-
ial, to the congress of the United States
asking for modification of the Chinese
restriction law so that China will have
an equal footing with other nations in
the United States.
Copies of the following petition have
been sent to the pastors and teachers
of the n religious organizations of the
city for signatures:
To the Senate and House of Represen-
tatiVeS in Congress Assembled:
We your memorialists, citizens of To-
kepa, Kansas, United States, respectful
ly represent that all men, irrespective
of race or color, are endowed with GER
tain natural and inalienable rights,
among which are the right to travel in
any land they may choose to visit, to
make their homes in any country they
may prefer, and to have their wives
and children with them under the same
roof.
But of these and other rights the Chi
nese people who come, or wish to come,
to the United States are unjustly de-
prived by the operation of the federal
law known as the Chinese restriction
act
In view of such facts as these. your
petitioners would respectfully call your
attention to the following considera-
tions:
F'irst-The Chinese restriction law is
in violation of national treaty inasmuch
as China never consented to the pass
our national covenant with almost any
other nation, war would have resulted.
SecOnd-IntO almost all nations except
China and the United States people of
any other land are permitted to enter.
or travel, or make their homes Why
should Christian nation follow the ex-
ample of pagan idolators?- Besides, by
the operation of the restriction act
great wrongs are inflicted upon a peo-
pie who have done US no wrong. In
coming to the United States they do
nothing worse than what the divine law,
as well as our treaty with China, per-
mits.
Third-The Golden Rule is applicable
to nations as well as to individuals. If
any European government would shut
plain bitterly, and most probably it
would lead to the proclamation of war
against the offending power. Even
Confucius said: do nothing to anoth-
er that you would not be willing that he
should do to you.'
Fourth-By the operation of the law
great wrong is inflicted upon families
when, with a very few/exceptions, a faith

tory. Even the law of humanity. saying
nothing about the divine law, cries out

Indianapolis Journal: Whether rail-
road managers know it or not, or
whether they mean it or not, there can
be no doubt that discrimination in rates,
as now practiced, tends toward a much
stricter government control and perhaps
ultimately to government ownership of
railroads The evil is not of recent
origin, but there was reason to believe
it had been greatly curtailed by the in
terstate commerce law. So it would
have been if the law had been obeyed,
but recent disclosures show it has been
Systematically violated. If railroad
managers were wise they would see that
the people will not patiently tolerate
determinations in rates which destroy
the equality of citizenship guaranteed
by the constitution, and which are
fragrant violation of law one of whose
main objects was to prevent such dis
examinations. The people Will not sub
NIT to be made the victims of a law
breaking practice in the interest of the
railroads against the public.

sEMATE's CHIEF FUNCTION,
IFrom the N. Y. World.

FROM the N. Z. w WOrld.l
Ill-tnformed people complain of the
"interminable" debate in the United
States senate. They sneer at the ''sena-
torial courtesy" that allows every SEN
ator to say what he has in mind on any
subject under discussion, whether it
takes him an hour or a week.
In reality this rule is the safeguard of
the people. Witness Senator Carriers
thirteen-hour speech, at the close of the
last session of congress, that killed a
river and harbor bill carrying $50. .000, 600
IN appropriations mainly for the i'm
provement" OF rivers and creeks that
could only be improved by being dug
over, supplied with water and laid out
on mathematical lines by engineers.
Under the present method of pro-
cedure the house of representatives,
ruled by an autocrat and filled with
men who have no more real legislative
functions than so many sheep, passes
under the rule" after a few hours
windy debate, bills of the greatest i'm
portance- The result is that there are
sent over to the senate great masses of
undigested legislation. If the senate
could not and did not exercise, in a
measure at least, the essential function
OF revision and amendment, the country
would be. to a far greater extent than
1t Is now, the victim of hasty and ex-
uavagant legislation.

A Majority of the Canal Com
mission For That Route.

Washington, Jan. 17.-When the 18TH
mian canal commission of which Rear
Admiral Walker is chairman met today,
it was with the understanding that the
session should continue until a majority
at least had reached a definite conclus-
ion respecting the nature of the recon-
mendation which will be made to the
president and that that recommenda-
ton would in all probability be submit
ted today.
1t is learned upon the highest auth
ority that the commission is not a unit
on any one of the propositions which
have been submitted. A member of the
committee today said to representa-
tive of the Associated Press: '+The fact
there is a discussion shows that there
is a diversity of opinion among the
members of the committee rSHarding
the selection of a canal route
Although no positive information was
given out regarding the feeling among
the members Of the commission, it is
learned that the acceptance of the offer
of the Panama company will be urged
by a majority of the members. There
were no witnesses at today's session, it
having been agreed that sufficient data
have been presented to enable the com
mittee to reach decision.

the valuable work of the department of
agriculture in behalf of the agricultural
interests of the country, and alleged
that no other industry had the advant-

Washington, Jan. 17.-Ex-Gov. Fran

and Adolphus Busch, chairman of the
committee on foreign relations of the
exposition, this afternoon admitted to
a representative of the Associated Press
that they had made statements at the
White House this forenoon regarding
the date of opening the exposition which
could be construed as showing that
delay was contemplated. They are
sorry that any misrepresentation over
this question exists. Mr.. Busch gave
out the following statement:
IF the foreign powers desire, in order
to participate here in dignified man
ner with their exhibits, a poStponement
to 1904, such a postponement Will be
taken into favorable consideration. We
claimed originally that the ST Louis
exposition shall be one of the grandest

In order to do that we must have a

time is needed by the foreign govern
ments, it is perfectly in order to post
