justed only when the conditions have
so changed that public interest de-
mands their alteration: but this work
can not safely be committed to any
other hands than the republican
party. To entrust this to the demo,

the northern metropolis this season,
reports that the Alaska Commission
company's steamship Portland with 200

were escorted to the festival hall,
where Miss Dassays delivered a lecture
on ~Women's Emancipation"

CHINESE CUT OFF QUEUES

Colonial Subjects Of Great Britain
Abolish a Custom That Is Cen

turies Old.
SINGAPORE, June 1s.-The Chi
rese British subjects in Kwalalumpur
have decided TO abandon a custom
that has been in vogue since the If
teenth century - that OF wearing
queues.
This action was taken AT a public
meeting which was called to consider
the matter.
The session was a most excited one,
but il was soon clear that the major
ity were in favor Of the progressive
plan.
The chief argument which the
speakers advanced was that the queue
was a symbol of slavery, inferiority
and degradation and that IL marked
them as an inferior race TO their fell
low British subjects and invited con-
tumely and suspicion.
A resolution was put and il was de-
cided by an overwhelming majority to
discard the queue. A second vote was
in favor Of carrying out the resolution
at once.
The chairman. amid the cheers of
the majority and the loud and vigor-
Gus protests Of the minority. proceed
ed to smputate all 'pigtails" TO be
found in the room. The struggles of
the victims were as unavailing as their
protests against the abandonment Of
an immemorial custom.

gor are following the example Of the
