THE oUARRELsoME JAPANESE.

The Japanese have either an eXag- gerated notion of the San Francisco affair. or else an increasingly large number of their statesmen are deter mined to magnify the destruction of restaurant and bath house into casus belli. It is difficult to see how our government can avert a war If the Japanese are determined to have it. since the making of it is in their own hands. The San Francisco hOodlums who destroyed one restaurant are at any moment liable to destroy another, and so far as has yet been determined. the federal government with which alone the Japanese government can directly deal, can no more extend pro- tection to the bath houses and eating places of san Francisco than it can to similar establishments in Montreal or Guadalajara-
 The state of California might be able to do something to smooth the ruffled feathers of the Japanese, but the state has so far, been unable to do anything toward preventing far worse outrages than those of which the sub jects Of the Mikado complain.
 This daily talk in Tokio of an ap- peal to arms will not go far toward maintaining the traditional friendly re- iati0ns between the two countries. nor will it go far toward spurring the state authorities of California to action. Neither will it soften the hoodlum ele- ment of San Francisco toward the Japanese.
 There is growing spitefulness in the language of the Japanese states men who though not connected with the government. may be presumed to reflect an existing sentiment among the people.
 The observation of Count Tani yes terday that We are essentially a con- mercial people may mean that We would submit to almost any indignitv before We would engage in a war which would interfere with the ac- cumulation of dollars and cents. Or it may mean what the Spaniards said few years ago when they called us pigs. capable of money making but not given to fighting.
 Our government has shown its desire to be friendly with Japan but the in temperate utterances made day by day by eminent Japanese are compll- eating the problem on this side.

word is premium on slovenly work a penalty of high finish. To reduce a 6OO0-word story that will just pass muster to a better one of 5000 words costs the writer $50. besides more than double toll. only amateurs and celebrated writers like MT. Kipling can afford to do their best work. In a novel the number of words may give some basis for payment; in a short story it is as irrelevant as the number of brush strokes in a picture. The writer's hardest work is precisely in leaving out all the words that can be spared. and the magazine that most strongly encourages this is the one that will get the best results. Prizes serve the purpose only in part"

THE SALE OF ZION

The sale of Zion City. which has been ordered by Judge Landis of the federal court at Chicago. betokens the
 ending of the fanaticaI experiment of John Alexander. Dowie. who was an able business man. at least if nOth- ing more. Dowie. when in full pos session of his faculties and his mental vigor. would have been a great bus mess man if he had been able to lay the religious mania aside. But. with the hypnotic influence that he exert ed through that channel, using his tal- ents to play upon the emotions of the simple-minded and the ignorant. he succeeded in drawing to himself large wealth creating possibilities; but he lost thereby much of the force that the legitimate business man creates. Religion was made an instrument of business with Dowie. The necessary reorganization of Zion City proves that his system lacked logic and that what force it possessed was due to his per sonality. When that passed away. the structure fell of its own weight. There is nothing permanent about such ven- lures and they do no good.

PRIZE STORIES AND OTHERS.

Story-writing is remunerative or otherwise, according to the faculty which one may possess. or lack, for producing wares which the periodicals will buy. There are hundreds of men and women in this country who can write a good story once in a while perhaps once in a lifetime-but who have not the training, the largeness of vision, or the industry, to keep on the pace they have set. Going through the magazines almost any month. you may run across strange names at tached to excellent stories. and you Those which persist are comparatively few
 There is plenty of encouragement. The magazines profess to be in con- stant quest for good original stories. There is no doubt that they examine every manuscript offered in the hope that it will be worth buying. They even offer prizes for which everybody is invited to compete: but this method does not always yield good results. The judges are bewildered by the enormous mass of rubbish which pours upon them, and there is always the risk that in their jaded condition they will overlook work of real merit. One periodical has adopted the more sen sible plan of paying regular rates for all stories accepted in the regular course. and. in addition, 5000 extra for the best story published each quar- ter. This leads an exchange to the following reflections:
 "A quarterly time limit is too ar bitrary. One quarter may pass with out a good story, and the next may bring two-one of which would receive only the regular rate of five cents a word. Now. for the ordinary mag azine story five cents a word is high pay, but it is not adequate compen- sation for the literary artist, who chooses his subjects fastidiously and polishes every detail.

the grave of Dowie's daughter, who
died several years ago from burns
caused by the explosion Of an alcohol

ROOSEVELT STAMPEDES
CALIFORNIA LAWMAKERS

Sacramento, Cal, March 1s.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has again appealed to
the legislature of California to stop
all Japanese. legislation. The president
has sent a telegram to Governor Gil
lette. urging that the legislature sus-
pend all Japanese legislation and x
pressing the fear that h action of the
senate Saturday in passing the two
Japanese bills and a resolution may
render ineffective his efforts to secure
exclusion Of Japanese laborers by
friendly agreement with Japan.
The governor transmitted the presf-
dents telegram to the assembly, where
action was to be taken on the two
bills and h resolution adopted by the
senate, with a message recommend
ing and urging that the presidents re-
quest be acceded to.
On Stanton's motion the assembly
by a viva voce vote decided to a no
action on the bills on file.
: The message is as follows:
Action Of legislature reported in this
mornings papers most unfortunate IN
effect upon my efforts to secure exclu-
sion of Japanese laborers by friendly
agreement, and, if continueds will prob
ably render recent legislation Of con-
gross for that purpose ineffective.
Please secure suspension of further &C
,tion until receipt of letter from me.

The action referred to by h presi-
dent was the passage Of the bill linn
iting the age of children when first
entering the primary schools to 10
years, the measures prepared by the
Japanese-Korean Exclusion league sub
hitting the question of Asiatic exclu-
sion to a vote of the people, and a. reso-
luton protesting against Japanese
naturalization.
The message created something of a
sensation In the lower house. Grove
T.. Johnson arose, expressed his conf
dence in the governor and president, be-
lieved the matter should be left to
them, and moved it to be the sense Of
the assembly that no action be taken
on the Japanese question at this time.
The motion was carried.
