JAPAN has entirely repudiated the
promises made to restore to China
the property appropriated through
the exigencies of war with Russia
China is quite indignant over what
is considered q gross breach of faith.
Yet the recovery is considered doubt
full of large amount Of government
and private property, in numerous
places throughout Manchuria, which
was appropriated by Japan without
compensation, on the sole pretext
that China had failed to observe neu-
trality in allowing Russia to occupy
these buildings and land. "a

LABOR strikes are not the only
kind of knock-down arguments just
now used in settling matters of diff
ference in public meetings being held
in San Francisco. The other day,
when the lie was passed a blow was
struck and for time opposing forces
were massed in hostile array. There
is q prospect of rioting at all times
in the present excited condition of
affairs.

SOME months ago, the farmers OF
the eleven wheat States organized
for dollar wheat" Last week the
price at some central points in the
East scared to 1.O9a, verifcation of
the saying that In Union there is
strength. And why should not the
farmer combine, when nearly every
body else has gone into trusts? The
farmers of one State alone, Illinois,
expect to put on the market 40. 600, :
600 bushels of wheat, for which they
will receive $4O,OOO,OOO. 1t is the
purpose of the organization to shut
out Board of Trade speculations and
confine the movement of grain to the
producer and the consumer, as close
~ as possible.

THE British Immigration officials
at Victoria lately encountered an
unique experience in their line of
duty, by requiring a princess of the
royal blood to don clothing becoming
to her sex, instead of mans attire.
She, with her husband, were passen-
gers on the Umatilla, en- route for
France, but the authorities insisted
that she doff her male costume and
pass over British soil properly clad.
AS she had only the clothes worn, a
collection was made for her by the
women passengers.

ONE day last week over 5000 i'm
migrants landed in New York. The
month of May threatens to outstrip
that of April, which was over 1884,
600. They are mostly of Italians,
Austria-Hungarians and Russians.
The former and latter certainly rank
with undesirable citizens" one
from familiarity with the stiletto
and the other from their knowledge
of bombs and torpedoes.

THE Juneau Daily Record Miner
has the following notice of one of our
local attorneys, who has quite q eli
entage in Alaska, among the leading
owners of mining property:
Attorney G. G. Israel delivered a
portion of his address in the Mcfarland
Perseverance case last night and will
conclude to-day. Mr. Israel has the re-
putation Of being one of the best takers
that has been in Alaska in a long time
and his argument in this case does not
lessen his fame in the least"

KURoKI QUAILs AT THE SIGHT OF
Blood. great Japanese General,
Kuroki, who is now receiving the
plaudits of our excitable people, it is
noted, shuddered last Tuesday, when
he was taken through the Chicago
stockyards, and saw hundreds of
stickers" cutting the threats of a
continuous string of porkers passing
through the packing-house from the
bloody killing-foors. 1t may be,
however, Kuroki, was of the kind of
generals who do their fighting in
army-tents instead of in the midst of
conflict on the sanguinary field. 1t
is a well-known fact, the world over,
that The blood of the soldier makes
the glory of the General.

BRETHREN Who Do Nor DWELL
TOGETHER IN UNITY. Last Sunday
q clash in the Shiloh Temple, at Zion
City, near Chicago, assumed the form
of a riot and the police had to be
called in to restore order. 1t is
stated that William Glenn Voliva
does not possess the psysic force of
the organizer of the sect and now
that the great prophet has departed
the opposition to him does not result
in that positive support of his sue
cessor that has existed the past year
or two. A union of forces opposed
to Voliva has been organized, and
during the earlier part of the meet
ing epithets that were anything but
loving or brotherly were hurled at
the Dictator" as he was called.
Voliva declared his right to name a
successor and threatened to take the
fight into the U. S. courts.

THE BEECHER-TILTON SCANDAL
The reported death of Theodore Til
ton in Paris. recalls the great scandal
of 1874 in which Henry Ward Beech
er, the eminent Brooklyn preacher,
and Mrs. Tilton were involved. The
Plymouth congregation Investigated
the charge and declared it without
foundation, but Mr.. Tilton brought
action in the civil courts for 800, 900
damages, and the suit lasted about
six months resulting in disagreement
of the jury, who were out about a
week in consideration OF a verdict.
While the prominence of the parties
and their professions of a faith in
Holy Writ, demanded a just verdict,
and the perfidy of one who had long
been associated with Mr.. Tilton in
the publication of the Independent,
q church paper. was, if the charge
was true, the grossest breach of con-
fidence that could be shown friend,
violation of both human and divine
law, it must be admitted common de-
cency and justice were outraged by
q verdict which left the foulest of
calumnies without o vindicatiOn by
the jury sworn to arbitrate Impair
TALLY, Us well to establish innocence
as guilt. The course pursued by Mr..
Tilton and the effect upon his subse-
quent life, go very far to establish
the belief that high position and ex-
allied professions are made sometimes
to 60 very far in palliating or con-
doning the highest crimes.

A Hobo Paradise.

DR.. B. T.. Reitman, the sOciologiSt,
has started in Chicago what may be
fairly called a HOBBS Paradise, at
which entertainment will be provided
for the Weary Willies without con-
fronting them with the phantom OF
Labor. Their quarters may not be
a preferred district, nor is it expect
ed that there will be Administer car
pets on the floor, but utility and COM
fort will be considered. The doctor,
in explaining its scope and object,
says that an attendant will be always
on duty to see that nobody goes away
until his wants are considered. The
first question asked at these munich
pal lodging houses is, What is your
name?' Then follows, How did
you get in town? Were you ever in
Jail? Why did you apply for aid?
Are you drunkard? And how can
we aid your" If the man says he is
hungry he will be given money and
directed to restaurant. If he says
he needs clothes we will get them for
him. If he needs a job, we will try
to find that. There will be no rough
words. Don't forget this: The
professional tramp will be just as well
come as the man who is on the verge
of becoming one. The hardened
criminal will always be welcome. All
will be received with kind words. "
The only thing we can see that may
result in failure of this philanthrOpic
movement is it's whOle-souled chart
table plan of operations. Soon as
this Paradise" becomes known, it
will be the Mecca for all disconsolate
pilgrims who have spent their lives
in lodging woodpiles or of performing
chores. They will all need every
thing but the jobs, and probably the
most tempting allurement of all is
that cash will be supplied instead of
a hold-out of cold grub, and in nine
cases out of ten the average man
when left TO his choice will eat his
breakfast from a beer mug or out of
awhisky-glass. rather than off plate.
