Information of the death of the found
er and president Of Bethany College,
Kansas, will occasion profound regret
among the Swedish Lutherans on this
coast He came to California a few
days ago in response to an invitation
from Manager Briggs of the California
State Board of Trade TO inspect lands
in the San Joaquin Valley. The clergy
man had been for some time in corre-
spondence with the California Estate
Board of Trade in reference to the To-
eating of Swedish colonies in this State.
Finally he came to the State, in com
pany with the Rev. DR.. /. @. Abraham
son of the Princeton avenue Lutheran
Church of Chicago, who has the reputa-
ton Of being the leading Swedish Luth-
eran clergyman in the United States.
Last week these clergymen, in company
with Manager Briggs of the California
State Board of Trade, toured the San
Joaquin Valley and inspected various
localities.
Mr.. Briggs says that the Rev. Carl
Swensson was in perfect health seem
ingly last Friday when he started on
his homeward journey by way of Los
Angeles. He was As years old. weighed
24O pounds, was over six feet tall and
looked to be in the very flower of health
and strength.
Bethany College, of which the Rev.
DR.. Swensson was the head, is located
at Lindsborg, Kans. 1t is one of the
largest and best established institu-
tions Of learning in Kansas. 1t was

THE YELLOW PERIL.

The Japs belong to the yellow race,
 by far the most numerous branch of the human family. It has often been stated that the great ambition and hope of Japan is to form federation, if not consolidation, of all the yell low races. This is called the yellow peril, much feared by some nations of Europe. If Japan is finally victorious in the war with Russia, subsequent events will be watched with interest, and in some quarters with a degree of apprehension. A united Asia would be numerically the greatest power on earth. However, China is already nu- merically the greatest power on earth. and nobody is afraid of sleepy old China. An Asia as progressive as Japan is, if such a thing were pos sible, would no longer be the victim of European aggression, while an Asia both United and progressive, would be a power which all Europe might have cause to dread.-Ex- change.

JUST WHAT WE NEEDED.

We'll, we'll! Who would have thought it? The mouser of the Tue son Citizen in his peregrinations has discovered graft-a real, truly, sure enough graft-and it is connected with some business transactions of the of ficials of the territorial university. Now, who will have the audacity to say we are not ready for statehood? We have had the impression all along that there was something lacking and to our minds it was not very clear as to what the deficiency was; it seemed intangible, but now it is as clear as a sunbeam, thanks to our cOnfrere of the Citizen. Now we can go to con- gress with bold front and demand our right to be incorporated in the sisterhood of states upon the indis- putable grounds that we support a graft, which, considering our popu- lation and resources, is worthy to be placed alongside the national post office graft. Surely we are advancing toward statehood at rapid rate.

 Upon the foregoing basis, the ap- pOrtionment will be as follows:

We understand that there is likely to be m upward tendency in the price of diamonds on account of the strike among the 5000 diamond cutters of Holland, therefore we would suggest to the editors of the Arizona press to at once lay in their stock of dia- monds, as late spring might find us short of this necessary commodity while the weather is still cold. We have ordered our stock.
