guished position acquired by Mr.. Cro-
ker as an Irishman in America and
his intention to spend the remainder
of his days in his native land and sup
port the Irish Parliamentary party in
it's struggle for home rule, he is here
by constituted an honorable freedman

tain Potter of the famine relief ship
Constellation. and Patrick a. Collins,

TO A HIGHER COURT.
The Anheuser- Busch Case Will Be
Appealed.

Invoking the Fourteenth amehdment
to the constitution of the United
States, which is now working overtime
in all corporation cases, the attorneys
for the Anheuser- Busch Brewing asso-
citation today filed with the supreme
court a formal exception to the judg-
ment against the association rendered
last Saturday, and apparently intends
to take the case uD to the supreme
court of the United States.
The attorneys renew their offer TO
confess judgment to custer and pay
all costs. up to the time of the ap-
pointment of receivers, but they say
that they won't allow the receivers to
appropriate their property for the pay
ment of costs, and they won't allow the
supreme court to dictate how, when.
and where they shall dispose of the
property which they own in the state.
1t is this part of the programme which
the Anheuser-B Busch people claim is
contrary to the Fourteenth amend
ment in that it is taking the pro-
perty of the company without due pro-
cess of law.

APPEAL TO THE EYE.
Photographs of the Berkeley

Toxic, June 13.-The newspaper men
of this city were summoned to appear
before the home department today and
were then officially advised to abstain
from the publication of any matter of
an inf1ammatory or agitating nature up
on the American question.
Several papers this morning printed
photographs of the wreckage caused by
the attacks on Japanese restaurants in
San Francisco. This appeal to the eye,
coupled with strong works describing
the sufferingS of compatriots has fur-
ther inhamed popular indignation.
The Nichi Nichi commenting on the
photographs says:
calls for prompt measures on the part
of both governments"
The Hochi says:
1.-The stage for negotiations has pass
ed and the time for action has been
reached"
The paper says further that it does
not mean 10 advocate war, but COM
mercial retaliation.
The Mainichi published at Osaka and
claiming to have a circulation of 250.-
O00 expresses anger today at the re-
ported recent attack on japanese
horticulturist at Berkeley, Cal. 1t
says:
1.-THE outrage demonstrates the I'M
potency of the California authorities TO
protect our compatriots. Now Is no

Welt towers high among living great
men and deserves full confidence, but
promises however high sounding and
reassuring and the promise MAKER
however high in character is of no
value whatever if unaccompanied by
deeds.
''The powerlessness of the California
and federal government are thus DEM

up the work of protection in our own
hands.

The Sunnyside mine is becoming more
and more the wonder of the camp as
time goes by. That it was expected to
make a mine goes without saying but 1t
has exceeded the expectations of its
most enthusiastic boosters.
Superintendent Mcdonald very kindly
showed a Nugget representative through
his workings last week and the verfest
amateur could not have failed OF being
impressed with what was on view. That
the men are all working in ore can not
be questioned. Pieces of the formation
picked at random from the various
places where the miners are working,
when panned, showed startling free gold
values. The work is being pushed at
every point in the mine SO that the pre-
ceding statement is a comprehensive
one. The lodges from which these values
are obtained range in width from -FOUR
to twenty feet. The assertion that these
ore bodies average better than $20 10
the ton cannot fail to impress n one
familiar with mining. Cabinet speci-
mems in the shape of nuggets are OF
daily occurrence. They are OF all sizes
