San Francisco Feb. I21.-Bishop j. w. Hamll-
ton. Of the Methodist Church, threw a bomb
she'll into the meeting of the Young Mems Meth
odist League last night when he declared that
there was no wrong in the marrying of whites
with negroes and Chinese.
You may shudder," said the Bishop. 'at the
idea Of such marriages, and il is natural ttat
YOU should but such unions are illustrative OF
the sweeping away Of caste lines which should
occur in the Church and which is occurring
in the world" He spoke then of his own ex-
perience in Brooklyn, where he had freely mar
ried white men TO negro women, and the reverse,
and where also. he had married whites and
Chinese His views aid not meet with the ap-
proval of his hearers.
To-day when asked If he would consent TO ms
own daughters marriage n a negro, he sald
no because racial prejudice was so strong
against the blacks that such a marriage would
bring reproach the white woman. If such
preiudice were removed he would have no OBJ
iecfioD TO the union.

1t is proposed to pipe the gas and

the popular sentiment is very strong
against the piping Of gas away from
the county, according to statement
made by Congressman Charles F.
Scott. Inasmuch as. a corporation
engaged in the gas business has no
authority to condemn ground for a
right of way as is done by railroad
companies, the gas company would be
at the mercy of the county commission
ers and of the farmers owning land
where It was desired to lay pipes.

No Discrimination.

For the first time in years, during
the rush of grain to market, the scoop
shovel men" or track grain shippers
are not being Disseminated against by
the railroads in the matter Of furnish
ing cars. They are being furnished
cars as promptly as are the regular
elevator and mill men. Not for six
months has complaint come to the state
board of railroad commissioners re-
garding the failures Of railroads to
furnish cars. Two years ago most OF
the complaints filed with the board
were of this variety. Last year the
board took cognizance Of the discrimi-
nations being practiced against the
scoop shovel men" in favor Of the
elevator and mill men and issued an
order compelling the railroads to keep
a car order book and furnish cars in
the order called for.
