THE Anderson Daily Mail which led
brilliant but unsuccessful fight on the
part of the people Of its town for the
encampment of the state troops in its
town, gets off the following criticism
that is certainly not lacking in point:
Perdicaris says Raisuli is perfect
gentleman. Which reminds US OF the
allegations of some Of the militia oth-
GERS that they are greatly pleased with
the idea of going into camp in Co
lumbia.

ALL of the developments in connec-
ton with the General Slocum disaster
seem to attest the high regard in
which New York officialdom holds hu-
man life, and the great city is entitled
to all due honor for her attitude on
this subject. Great is gold in New
York, but there have been thousands
of evidences that regard for human life
holds still higher place in the heart
and conscience Of the typical gotha-
mite.

WE are sorry to note the trouble into
which Secretary of State CAN'T has
gotten himself. There is no intimation
of wrong doing; but the statement of
the committee that there has been no
bookkeeping is very nearly as bad.
The greatest responsibility that can
devolve upon any state officer is proper
attention to his books.

The decision of the United States SUI
preme Court in the matter of Porto
Ricans is not so broad as was first rem
resented, The citizens OF Porto Rico
are not aliens, but they are not neces-
sarily citizens. The decision was rem
dered in the case of u Porto Rican wo-
man who was refused admission TO the
port of New York in 1902 on the ground
that she was liable to become a pubIic
charge. The court said that under tbe
act OF 1900 creating a civil government
Ior Porto Rico the woman was a citi-
zen of the island, and that there was
nothing expressed in that act. or. 10 he
reasonably implied from it, to indicate
that 1t was the intention of Congress-
that citizens Of Porto Rico sbouId ba
regarded as aliens and the right of free
access denied to them. The court ada.
ed that it was not necessary To decide
the question whether citizens of Porto
Rico are necessarily citizens of tbe
United States, but only the narrower
one whether the person in question was
an allen within the meaning of that
Term as used in the immigration act Of
1871 That aetrths court concluded. re-
lated onlysto foreigners as respects the
United States, to persons giving ale
glance to a foreign government, and
citizens of Porto Rico whose permanent
allegiance is due to the United states
do not fall within that category The
question whether a Porto Rican can
vote is still undecided.

English, French, Bulgarian, Dutch, and
German railroads. 1T was decided to
run a train de luxe from London and
Paris via Berlin and Warsaw to the
Chinese capital, beginning May, 1904.
The Russian Government viii arrange
to simplify passport and customs regu-
1ations for through passengers to mini
Inize delays and formalities. 1t is the
purpose Of those participating in this
movement to make it possible for pas
sengers to book in London or Paris to
China without change. Another inter-
esting item connected with the arrange
ments is the issuing of a round-trip
ticket, first-class, for 1904 which per-
mits the traveller to make the trip both
ways by rail or one way by rail and the
other by water The trip by rail is to
be made in seventeen days. The tickets
are to be good on thu ships of all com
panies voyaging around Asia, and per-
mission is to be granted to stop off at
any port at which the ship calls, with
the privilege Of taking another ship.
This is cheap travelling with a ven
geance and some Of the steamship COM
panies had better put on their consid-
ering caps.

Chicago lives in a state Of chronic
alarm from fire. When the Masonic
Temple caught fire on Saturday, there
was the greatest alarm throughout the
city. Fortunately no one was killed.
The Masonic Temple is the Hottest
building in Chicago and contains count
less offices occupied by many hundred
people. After such fire as that at the
lroquois Theater it is no wonder there
was sort of panic.

Frank w. Mulock, an Eastern news

Mr.. Muloek began his search and after
diligent seeking for many days located
Waldman. Waldman says he was one
Of the victims of hold-up and robbery
at Winnemucca about a year ago, in
which his friend, Jack Welch, was

COAST tOLITICS.

VENTURA, Aug. 2O.-At the county
convention of the Democrats held to-
day a full ticket was nominated. 1t
consisted of three Supervisorial candi-
dates and an Assemblyman, the latter
TO oppose Colonel D. T. Perkins, who
stands for Senator Bard. Strong reso-
lutions were passed condemning Bard
for his action in denying statehood to
Arizona and opposing the election Of
Senator'S by direct vote Of the people.
Major w. Moultrie of Santa Paula was
made the nominee for the Assembly,
while for Supervisors F. Hartman was
nominated in the First District
Thomas Clark in the Third and VIII
liam Borchard in the Fifth
The resolution regarding Senator
Bard was a decided surprise to the
Bard people of the county, as it had
been stated that the Democrats Of the
county would not even nominate a can
didate to oppose the Bard candidate
for the Assembly. The friends of Sena-
tor Bard feel sore over the incident and
call it an unnecessary and uncalled for
slap at the home man.

buted free to all.

HOPE TO FLOAT
A BOND ISSUE
University Students Will
BE Asked to Lend Money
to Pay Athletic Debts
NAY NOT PAY INTEREST
Manager Ezra Decoto In
vents a Way to Tighten
the Financial Burdens
Berkeley once San Francisco Call.

Berkeley Office San Francisco Call,
214S Center Street. Aug. 20.
Most unique of all the devices to
raise money to pay student debts is
that proposed by the executive COM
mittee of the Associated Students of
the University of California, by which
$4,000 or $4,000 will be secured
through a bond issue. The new foot
ball field is going to cost the students
several thousand more dollars than
was at first thought and this burden,
which is made all the more arduous
on account of other undertakings by
the collegiate body, calls for some
rapid and effective financiering to re-
lieve the pressure.
The proposed bond issue will be in
every sense a popular affair. Every
student will be entitled to purchase
the bonds. Whether interest viii be
paid for the use of the money is a
question yet to be decided, though it
is likely that a small rate will be al
lowed in order to stimulate the sale.
AS this is the first time that bond
ing scheme on this order has been
proposed for college students. it will
require some ingenuity to get it into
presentable shape. Graduate Manager
Ezra Decoto, who originated the
scheme, is working up the details now,
so that when the executive committee
Of the student body meets next week
there will be something tangible to
work upon.

AND KILLS THE HORSES

OAKLAND, Aug. 20.-H. A. G.
Kaufman, a rancher living near Mel
rose, narrowly escaped death this aft
ernOOn under the wheels of a mar
row gauge locomotive which struck
his wagon at the corner Of Third and
Webster streets, smashing the vehicle
10 splinters and injuring both the
horses so badly that they had to be
shot. Kaufman escaped from the
general wreck by a close margin, for
he leaDed from the seat of his wagon
not five seconds before it was struck
by the pilot of the locomotive.
Kaufman was on his way home
when the accident happened, and tried
TO cross the tracks just as the 1:45
O'Clock p. m. train, southbound, ap-
preached the crossing. He tried to
turn out Of the way. but the horses
became unmanageable and a moment
later the crash followed. There is a
high fence on the corner where the
accident happened and this obscured
kaudmann's view so that he did not
see the oncoming train until his horses
were almost on the track.
