Sportsman Sultan in Trouble.

King Edwards Australian colonies are
quite as severe in their laws against the
admission OF Asiatics as the people Of
this country are on the subject Of Chi
nese exclusion. When. the other day. the
Sultan of JOhore, one Of the most ea-
lightened and up-to-date feudal rulers OF
the British empire. arrived from Singa-
pore at Freemantle on board the Orien-
tai liner Ophir. the immigration authori-
ties at first refused him permission to
land, declaring that he belonged to the
prohibited Immigrant class, and turning
an entirely deaf ear 10 his claims for re-
spectful and courteous treatment as the
sovereign Of a semi-independent native
state subject to King Edwards su-
zerainty.
Indeed, so indignant was the Sultan at
the behavior OF the Australian authori-
ties. that he Immediately cabled TO the
King demanding redress. and IL was only
IN Difference to the latter's intervention
that he was at length permitted to land.
This young potentate Is a great sports
man. He maintains the finest racing
stable in the Orient invariably hunts his
tiger on foot, and has killed sixteen. al

ever. TO the district in which the animal

To Organize Fremont Clubs.

The Detroit Tribune" is making a
lGudable attempt 10 organize John c
Fremont clubs wherever there are men
who voted for this pioneer Republican
Fremont ran for President I'm 1856 as the
first candidate OF the now all powerful
Republican party. OF course. he was de-
feated. but he paved The way for the
election Of Abraham Lincoln four years
later. Every man VINO voted for him
must be al least sixty-elght years Of
age, but Notwithstanding this fact there
are probably thousands who have that
distinction. and it is somewhat singu-
lar fact that in this day of organizations.
when men who at any time in life had q
common purpose have banded them
selves together, when the Republican
party has grown great and influential in
national affairs. that there should not
ere this have been formulated an asso-
citation Of men who voted for the orig
iual national Republican candidate.
Great have been the achievements Of
the party since Fremont led what was
then a forlcrn hope, but which has de-
veIcped 10 be a wonderful success. No
doubt those men who east their first
ballots for the first Republican ticket in
the field. and have since been voting
regularly for the candidates of that
party, feel proud Of the distinction. and
they should organize that they may be
constituted the honor roll of the Re
publican party. While the Republican
workers are organizing Republican clubs

Edwards Drastic Step to Improve the British Navy.
An Expulsion Narrowly Averted.


Had it not been for the tragedy at
Belgrade. which has aroused a good deal
Of sympathy in behalf Of ex-Queen Ma
tale Of Servia, the mother of the ill
fated King Alexander, she would have
been expelled ere this from French ter
ritory.
Since her conversion to Roman CathOli-
cism, and her interview with Leo XII
at Rome, She has like so many converts,
allowed her zeal in behalf of her new
creed to get the better Of her discre-
ton, and not content with devoting her
SELF TO the religious observances of the
church which she has joined. has been
taking very conspicuous part in the
political campaign waged against the
present French government by the roy

which 1t has been enforcing during the
last few months against the religious
orders-that is to say, against those or
ders which for one reason or another
had failed 70 secure permission from the
state to remain as corporate bodies on
French soil.
The friends and champions of the re
ligious orders, especially the Royalists
and the so-called Nationalists, are wag
ing a very vigorous campaign against
the government, and attacking IL IN
the most savage fashion. In these at
tacks Queen Natalie is taking lead

TWLOCH CHARGES
FULLY SUSTAINED

Postmaster General Payne has given
to the public all the documents in the
investigation OF the Washington Office in
1899 and 1900; and, to sum II W. what
they prove is that the TulIoch charges
are true, and that Charles Z. Smith, the
then Postmaster General. is responsible
for what is euphemistically called the
egularities," whether he attended to
the business of his position himself or
allowed others to attend TO It for him.
His First Assistant Heath is hit hard.
and the effort TO discredit TullOch by
stigmatizing him as an "informer," who
became such because they would not re-
instate him as cashier. falls TO the
ground.-Brooklyn Citizen.
