TO SAN FRANCISCO.
The Department of Potomac Will Have q
Special Train.

Judge /. G. Kimball, Commander De
partment of Potomac, Grand Army of the
Republic, has announced that arrange
ments have been made for special train
of vestibuled tourist sleeping cars for the
trip of the comrades of the Department
of the Potomac, G. A. r.; the Woman's
Relief Corps, and the other patriotic or
CARNATIONS of ladies and their friends to
the National Encampment to be held at
San Francisco the week commencing Au-
gust II. The train will go over the Ches-
apeake & Ohio, Big Four. and connecting
lines, via Cincinnati, Chicago, Omaha,
Denver and Salt Lake City, with side
trips by stage through the Yellowstone
Park, and thence to San Francisco. The
fare, returning by Los Angeles and any di-
rect route, will be $G4.75. Returning by
way of the Northern or Canadian 500 Pa
cific the fare will be S1a additional. The
trip through the Yellowstone Park, includ-
ing all expenses. will be $49.50 additional
The sleepers will be $7lper double berth
each way. Commander .kimball says it is
of the utmost Importance that every one
intending to take this trip notify the Com
mander or J. J. Freeland, at the Pension
Office, the Chairman of the Transporta ton
Committee, at the earliest possible mo-
ment. as final arrangements cannot be
completed until it is known how many are
to be provided for. This is especially true
of the trip to the Yellowstone Park.

Misleading Headlines.

An article in the Chicago Tribune,
which is being copied all over the country,
is entitled "Rascals Cheat Uncle Sam;
Clever detective work done by Sherlock
Holmes men in the Pension Office" This
would imply world of villainy in the
Pension Office, and the Tribune starts it
with paragraph implying the same. When
one comes to read the article, however,
it is about man named Charles w.
Evans, a sharp adventurer and general
scoundrel, who posed among other things
and his masquerading for a little while as
Pension Examiner, was about the only
connection he had with the Pension Bu-
reau. Otherwise he wtas a bigamist, n
confidence man, murdereE and an all
round bad man. He also posed as n
United States detective, and the last time
he was arrested it wascin the midst of
preaching an eloquent sermon at camp
meeting. 3C''

Population of New seuth Wales.

The 1901 census gave New South Wales
population of ,354, ,S56! All the world
contributed to this total the most salts
factory feature of which. however. was the
vast preponderancer OF sAustralasian ma
tives disclosed by the figures. This factor
accounted for no less than 1,O300O0 per-
sons. Natives Of the United Kingdom
came next in number, and represented
100000; 126,117 of whom hailed from
England, 59,945 from Ireland, 3O,717 from
Scotland, and 3,622 from Wales. Our
American cousins, from the United States
and Canada, contributed $3.50, while near
and undesirable Cathay sent a contribu-
ton Of 10,261 yellow and brown inhabi-
tants. Indications favor an increase in
the complement of American residents, and
a decrease of Asiatics. The establishment
of fast and frequent maritime communi-
cation between the two white continents
makes the first matter OF course, while
recent anti-Asiatic legislation renders the
second inevitable. The Australian people
are willing to welcome humanity from any
part of the world, providing it be honest
and white. They will have nothing to do
with inferior races, because they desire to
keep their national blood clean. The Mon
roe doctrine of the Continent has been de-
scribed as White Australia.

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow seems to be earning his salary
in fcrreting out the Irregularities and
abuses that have been pilibg up in the
Post Office Department ever since the
Democrats had control OF it. Gen. Bris-
tow's report to the POstmaster-General
made last week, shows that while there
have been many Irregularities. most OF
these had their origin in Democratic
Administration, and had been complained
of to Postmaster-G General Smith, but he
had thought them scarcely worth while
investigating further, nor was anything
done about the matter. 1t Is said that
x-Postmaster-G General Oh. Emory Smith
is now writing out full statement of the
affairs and Irregularities with which his
name has been connected.
There is now clamor going up for in
vestigation of every Department Of the
Job hn
ought to know declare are all honeycOmb-
ed with irregularities, "jobs," gratis
and favoritism.
The Civil Service Commission would
very gladly help along such an investiga-
tion, for that Bureau has been aonted
continually by those who desired to place
their friends advantageously, and the Bu-
reau is practically helpless in the matter
until it is called upon to "explain," and
then, as in the case of the Post Office
scandals, it gets in its work with a club.
Let the light shine!
