COULD CIvIL1zE SEATTLE.

How the President Could Civilize
Seattle" is the caption of an editorial
printed in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle
under date of July 81, which purports
to discuss the question of Chinese i'm
migration and the exclusion laws with
special reference to the vigilance of the
United States immigration officials at
that port. The editorial advocates the
appointment of Eastern men exclusive
~ as immigration inspectors on the
Pacific coast in general and at Seattle
in particular, charges being made of
reckless indiscretions and unjust opera
ton of the exclusion law by the immi-
grafton inspectors stationed there. 1t
is claimed that the East has succeeded
in keeping the Chinese in good humor,
without experiencing any difficulties
under the treaty arrangements, where
as, according to the Eagle. ION the
Pacific coast there has been, especially
at Seattle. a city which seems to sug-
gest barbarism, Hooliganism and sew
erai other undesirable isms."

is to say, the whole communicated

of that one interest. He should beware
all entangling al1iances-political, so
cial, commercial-which may limit or
embarrass such service. He should let
the honors and emoluments of public
office go to other people. His own Of
flee if properly administered, is more
important and more powerful than any

upon him. The independent newspa per

and effective instrument that demo-

advancement and protection; and it's

lies in complete, intelligent, SYM

That the aims and principles here set
FORTH lofty as they are. are not too
lofty for practical attainment, Mr..

monstrated in the conduct of his own

good as his preaching. According to

'SPELLBINDER EQUAL TO
THE OCCASION.

An orator who was equal to an emer-
gency was the late George A. Sheridan,
who was a noted ''spell-binder," often
engaged by the Republican National
Committee. At a big meeting he was
addressing in a town near New York
he Was introduced by Mr. O'Brien,
the chairman, in most fiattering terms.
In order to reciprocate, Mr. Sheridan
paid a glowing tribute to the sterling
qualities of the chairman, and wound
up the eulogy by asserting that no man
could say Mr.. O'Brien owed him a cent
He owes me three doIlars!" came a
keen Celtic voice from the rear of the
audience.
1t was almost a solar-plexus blow
for the orator, and the audience started
TO laugh and jeer. Rallying, the speak
er said. Don't be alarmed good
friends; I viii answer that man pres
entity This assertion was to gain
time, and, if possible, have the audi
ence forget the incident; but again that
penetrating voice cried out,
He owes me three dollars cold CASH.
Advancing to the edge of the plat
form, General Sheridan, in a confiden-
tial tone, said. Yes; I know all about
the three dollars. for my friend, Mr..
OBrien. has given me the inside facts

HURLEY SPRUNG SURPRISE.
Alderman of the Fifth We'll Thought
 of by Friends.

The raise in pay, which the mem- bers of the board of safety voted yes terday to give the dremen after Jan- pary 1. Is the result 'of the measure pushed through the board of alder men by John Hurley a short time ago. The wage question for the flremen has been discussed much of late, but 1t was the general impression that the aldermanic chamber would not consent to boost for the i1refighters. But one night when several of the republican members were absent, thus giving the democrats the ma- j0rity, Alderman Hurley sprung a surprise on tho meeting by having a vote passed which would enable the iiremen to get . substantial increase It Is not strange, therefore. that Hur- ley to-day is strong among the fire- men. for they are of the opinion that to him is due the credit of having the firemen's pay made equal to that of the policemen. The bluecoats in the first class receive t2.76 per day. which amounts to $1,003.75, count ing 365 days in the year.
