STATE PRIMARIES AND ELECTION.

This year the primary elections Of the
two political parties will be held Sep
TENDER 10, two weeks earlier than in
years when no Governor is to be chosen.
Under the amendment to the primary
act passed in 1906 the primary election
in years when a Governor is to be
elected shall take place on the second
Tuesday in September, instead of the
fourth Tuesday in September, as in
other years. This will bring the pri-
F41ary election this year on Tuesday,
September 10, which also will be the
first registry day in all cities with a
population exceeding 10000. Election
day will be November 5.
The law is that certificates of nomina
lions for State offices must be fled with
the Secretary of State twenty-five days
before election, or this year before Oc-
tober 10. Therefore the State onven
tions will be held before that date and
about the middle of September. In al
probability the State will be treated tC
the novelty of a legislative session wher
the political nominating conventions
are being held.

The Asiatic can initiate the European
military model, but can never equal 1t.
Japan made a fair imitation of the
German organization and used 1t eff
fectively against Russia, but Russia is
an Asiatic power and was caught UNI
prepared. The Japanese soldier is yet
to meet the soldier Of the west in bat
tie. From ancient times to the present
the European has been the superior.
Macedonian Greece conquered all Asia
Rome repeated the conquests and made
the states of Asia tremble until Rome's
decay gave rise to the power Of the
Arabs and Turks, the highest Asian
types of men. When Japan engages in
a war with a western power that is
prepared for war. japanese eonceit will
sustain a shock. The imitation is never
equal to the original.

GOLD lot GOOD IN CHINA.
What Money Is Depends Upon the Local
ity, Says a Traveller.

1T is hard to define just what money
is" said Representative Julius Kahn. of
San Francisco, recently. "At best, 1t
seems to be a relative term-that is, what
passes for money In one part of the world
is regarded with suspicion at some other
place.
Gold is supposed to be the one circula-
ting medium that passes current every
where, but it is not true. In the far East,
for instance. the natives politely refuse to
a k anything but silver. Gold 10 not
money to them, and in Washington or
New York or any of the cities along the
Atlantic Coast, when I hand a man
a. ten dollar or twenty dollar gold piece
to change he looks upon me with sus-
piclon. He almost say in so many words
that he would rather not have 1t. But
let me hand out a worn and dirty Dill
and he accepts it without looking at it.
''Out in California bills are still more
or less of a curiosity and consequently the
people are not accustomed TO tnem- 90
into a bank in San Francisco and tender
/ a fifty dollar bill for change. The chances
are that the president of the bank and the
entire staff of officials would be called
into consultation as to its genuineness,

all.
The silver coins in circulation in
China" Mr.. Kahn continued, ARE objects
Of curiosity to foreigners. In China the
coinage of money is let to private parties,
and the amount OF silver in a coin depends
largely on the personal honesty Of the
man In charge of the particular mint. On
this account each coin as it passes around
in circulation has to be stamped with the
initials OF the merchant last having 1t in
his possession. The last man stamping the
cSn is held responsible for any shortage
in weight In the coin. The result is that

Expert observers tell us that there was less money used in
Albany this year by corporations than at any previous session
of the New York Legislature. This was due to the fact that
the corporations were warned in advance that attempts to use
money corrupuy would defeat the objects aimed at. Governor
Hughes was keeping a sharp eye on the situation, and the fell
lows who used to handle the doodle were afraid of him.

for 100000 for alleged libel. Most people would be predis-
posed to sympathize with Mr.. Jerome, but in this case he shows
"a lack of candor and straightforwardness. Hearst accused him
of negectng his duty and shielding the insurance criminals, and
limited pretty plainly that he was influenced by contributions to
his political campaign. Nh. Jerome refuses to disclose the
names of the contributors, though admitting that $4,000 was
subscribed. The whole point of the case hinges on this ques-
ton as to the personnel of the subscribers, and Jerome ought
to be compelled to give up the list.
