from India under contract to work and pay for their passage money. They are settled in the British colon- ies and hired out, where their work is needed. to virtual slavery. It takes about five years work to pay for their passage, and at the end of that time they are free to go back to In- dia or settle in the country. These were the people against whom the rioters arose. They chased them over to the American side of the line and most of the Hindoos came with out waiting for the formality of pass ports. Then on Sunday night the wave of anti-Orientalism spread to Vancouver, and the residents wreck
 ed the Chinese and Japanese quart CTS. The riot was marked with all brutality that characterizes a mob anywhere. The Japanese government has already demanded apologies and  indemnities, and the mayor of Van couver, being elected by the votes of the residents, has declined to furnish either. So the British government is decidedly "up against it," and the London papers that have been in- weighing against the brutality of the anti-Japanese riots in San Francisco are hard put to it to find an excuse for their own people who have been guilty of the same sort of an out break. It merely shows that popula- lions are much alike the world over, and the Oriental is not calculated to mix with the white man.

Candidate John E. Sewell of the re- | publican party in his preliminary talks would lead one to believe that he thinks he has a grievance against some of the people of Waterbury and is going to take this opportunity to get even with them. This 1t seems 10 us as well as to many other right thinking people is not the spirit that candidate who is for the good of the community should exhibit. If he has been a chopping block for any particular set of men there must have been some reason for it. Any man who devotes his time and energy to helping a grasping corporation be still more grasping is pretty apt to be put on the rack occasionally and of course Candidate Sewell is no ex- ception. However, the republican candidate is quite a jollier and he should be taken with a grain of salt. Notice what he says abou. taking Tn the Hill, also about what he says concerning his friends in the fourth. who are ashamed to work openly for him. Well, perhaps they cannot be blamed for refusing to come out openly and work for Mir Sewell for mayor. A great many people, re- publicans as we'll as democrats look at Sewell's candidacy !n the nature of a joke. Some even go SO far as to say that the former trolley manager was put up to be knocked down. At any rate it looks as if the republican party Is not quite so confident of victory, as their shoutings would lead us to believe or they would have had another candidate. The leaders of the party recognize in Mayor Thoms a conscientious and capable official. whose good work will commend him for another term in the mayors office and they know that no ordinary can didate can beat him. However. as a candidate was necessary to complete the ticket. the choice of leading the party fell on John E. SeweIl and at present it looks like a hopeless run for him.

HIS LOVELETTERS ANNOY HIM
Horace Miller Forced to Praise Girl

 New York, Sept. 17.-Enraged be- yond measure. Horace E. Miller, the wealthy Newark manufacturer who is trying to accomplish the deportation of Paula Klipenbourg of Austria, was forced to admit under oath before the board of special inquiry on Ellis island that he has written a series of remark able letters to one whom he denounced as dissolute woman when she came here to sue him for breach of promise.
 In these letters he mentions his re- gently dead mother in the same breath with his dear, dear Polly" and tells her he is sending her a cruclfix which was blessed by worthy priest Mill Ter says in the letter that he sees Pol ly" in dream pictures" that he can see in his desk picture of her look of sympathy on the occasion of his mothers death. and in still another place he drops into poetry and calls her his Queen of Hearts"
 And under oath Miller, who is mar ried and has a twenty-year-old daugh- ter, was forced to answer in the af- firmative when the question was put to him:
 And are these the kind of letters you would write to a woman such as you are now trying to paint Miss Kip enbourg?"
