AGAINST LABOR'S PROTEST
Chinese Coolies Brought Into Hum

in Canning Factory,

Eureka, Cal Sept. 30.-Twenty-sev-
en- Chinese were brought into Hum
boldt county this afternoon on the
steamer Roanoke from Astoria, to
work at the Starbuck TalIant cannery
at Port Kenyon, at the mouth of the
Eel river They are the first Chinese
admitted on Humboldt soil since Feb.
s, 1885, when 30 Chinese were, with
bag and baggage, shipped to San Fran
cisco on the steamers City of Chester
and Humboldt by incensed citizens be-
cause of various crimes, climaxed by
the killing of David Kendall, a council
man.
some months ago asked the chamber
of commerce of Ferndale, near Port
Kenyon, for permission to import coolie
labor TO work inside the cannery only
during the fshirg season, and then be
deported. The chamber of commerce
conceded the request, but similar bo-
dies Of the county, together with all
organized labor. loudly condemned the
action, claiming that the first lot of
Chinese would be but wedge for
more to follow. The Chinese imported

ARE TEACHERS WELL PAID7

An eastern educational meeting re-
Gently discussed the compensation If
teachers and reached the conclusion
that no calling gives as small returns
considering its demands, the ouaIiA-
cations and the standard of living ne
cessary to maintain position.
That this conclusion is well within
the facts needs no argument. OF all
professions. teaching is the most ex-
acting, its responsibilities are greater
and the conditions the least desirable
as compared with the earnings. II is
true the teacher has some leisure and
some privileges which are denied
workers in other professions. but il is
also true that in Salt Lake, for in
stance, the man or woman who does
grade work is compelled to exercise
the most rigid economy to meet the
expense of living, and few teachers are
able TO save anything against the
emergencies of life, such as sickness
or accident
One reason for this condition is the
number Of women who undertake 70
teach, many Of them with no intention
Of pursuing the work a permanent oc-
cupation; but the law Of supply and
demand is rapidly equalizing this fac
tor, until today ii is not easy to fill
all the places In Utah with competent
instructors.
Another reason-and an unjust one
is the discrimination between the sala-
ries OF men and women doing the same
work. This is largely due to the un-
complaining acceptance Of existing
conditions by women; they are unwill-
Ing TO agitate or organize or enter ac-
lively into the political affairs which
would give them voice in the adjust
ment OF such questions. But It is in
evitable that a continuance of the dis
crininetion shall IN the near future
compel some action. political or eco
nomic, which will give women their
Just place IN organization, admins
tration and remuneration OF school
work.

ANOTHER PAVING DONATION.

After convenient delay the Barber
Asphalt company, by its representa-
tlves in the American" city council.
proposes to grab off 1880 to which It
is not entitled. and which no council
heretofore would talk about paving.
Under its contract the Alcatraz oom-
pany, the predecessor Of the Barber,
forfeited this amount for delays and it
was withheld from payment on the
final estimates. The claim was taken
into court and has been kept there
since by the paving trust. which has
delayed a final hearing on various pre-
texts i'm order that it might find coun-
Gil that would stand for the graft.
Every city attorney who has had any
thing to do with the ella m. including
Judge Hiles. the present American"
attorney. has said the city should not
pay it. but this council proposes to set
tie it out of court, give the paving
company the whole sum and let the
property owners, to whom the $3.50
belongs and to whom it should be re-
turned whistle for their cash.
This matter has been considered fully
by every city administration since the
paving was done; it has been held up
by all of them. the city law advisors.
boards of public works and members of
the council agreeing without regard 10
political parties, that the claim is with
out legal shadow of right. Moreover.
there have been strong intimations that
corrupt means have been employed to
secure consideration of the claim at all.
The whole business looks bad, ard
ought not TO be permitted to go any
further. Either the city owes the
amount with interest. or it does not
owe a cent of it; and the courts can de-
termine very quickly which view is
right. The proper thing to do. the only
thing. is TO compel the Barber COM
pany 10 go on with its court proceed
ings at once and settle the matter in
full view Of the public, where there can
be no question Of corruption or i'm
proper methods.

MAYOR MCCLELLAN OF
NEW YORK HAD CLOSE CALL

London, July 1.-By the mefeSt
chance Mayer George Mcclellan OF
New York was not in the wrecked
American line special train. He had
an appointment to keep in London to-
day, and although the steamer was
late In arriving at Plymouth, he de-
cided to come direct to London in
stead of going to Cherbourg with Mrs.
Mcclellan, who was booked through
to Paris. His hand baggage had been
transferred to the tender TO land at
Plymouth, and he was going to board
the tender when an officer of the
steamer whom Mrs. Mcclellan had
been asking to urge her husband to ac-
company her to Cherbourg, told the
mayor that he could reach London
in time to keep his appointment IF
he went on to Cherbourg and thence
to Southampton. Just before the ten
der left the ships side Mayor McCleI-
Ian changed his mind and the ship 9
steward threw his luggage back on
board the New York as the tender was

WRECK OCCURRED ON MOST
DANGEROUS CURVE IN ENGLAND

Salisbury, July IA short distance
out of Salisbury begins a remargabla
curve which sometimes has been deS-
cribed as the most dangerous in the
world, and which certainly possesses
elements of danger in plenty. Not
only does the line enter and leave the
station on curve, but where it crosses
Fisherton street, the line takes a slight
rise. 1t was practically at this
point that tire engine jumped the rails
and brought about the disaster Both
as regards percentage of lives lost and
the extent of the damage to rolling
stock it Is almost without precedent
in the annals of British railway acei-
dents, especially of boat expresses.
The directions to engineers over this
portion of the line Is not to excee1 /
speed of thirty miles an hour, but
1t is alleged that calculations based
on the times at which different box
signals were passed showed that this
speed was exceeded Unfortunately
both the engineer and fireman are
dead and therefore it may be difficult
to obtain reliable evidence as to the
speed the train was running when the
accident occurred. The people of Sails
bury telegraphed Ambassador Reid
the heartfelt sympathy of the citizens
of the town to the whole American
nation.
The cause of the accident is still
in doubt. 1t is suggested that the
wheels of the engine failed to make a
switch and that a wheel or an axle
broke. 1t is expected an inquest viii
be held tomorrow and board of trade
inquiry later will fully investigate the
wreck. The train was regarded as
having been too light for the high
speed at which it travels, but 1t IS
said that trains always sway and
shake going at high speed over this
curve. Much criticism is likely to be
evoked by the fact that latterly there
has been sharp competition between
the London and Southwestern and the
Great Western lines which are rivals
for the traffic between London ana

Special to the Morning Journal,
Santa Fe, July John M. Collier
assumed the duties of assistant sup
erintendent of the territorial peniten-
tiary here this morning, taking the
place of II. c. Garrett. who was re-
moved from office at the close Of busi
ness yesterday.
Mr. Collier is from Silver City and
was a member OF the territorial
mounted police, which position he ra-
signed last week 1t is reported that
there have been some Irregularities
In the management of the penitenti-
airy, and some startling disclosures
may be expected in the very near
future.
Since the removal of Assistant Su-
perintendent Garrett and the suspen-
sion of Dr. Knapp, some of the terri
torial officials who have been expect
ing to be separated from the territorial
service, are getting nervous. It seems
to be the prevailing opinion here that
the next one to go will be the terri
torial auditor, but nothing can DC
learned from an official source.
