alien land bill signed yesterday
by Governor Johnson, and the admin
istration's answer delivered to the
ambassador when word that the
measure had been signed reached
here.
The decision to keep the contents
Of the two documents secret was due,
1t was frankly stated, to fear that
they would be the subjects of heated
controversies in the newspapers and
at mass meetings. From this fact
alone the opinion has been reached
by the majority that relations be-
tween the two countries have practi.
cally reached the breaking point.
The war idea is further strength
ened by the preparation of battleships
and torpedo boats now at the Allan
tic coast navy yards; for service and
the ordering of over 1000. troops to
Honolulu.
Navy officers are extremely skep-
teal that peaceful relations can be
established. They declare that the
movement of single battleship on
the Pacific coast may promptly be
constructed as inimical by the Japan
csc and followed by actual conflict.
They are extremely reticent regarding
the activities in the navy yards. but
it Is known that vessels that have been
almost out of use since the Spanish

THE sALus BILL.

Senator Samuel w. Salus of Phila-
delphia has introduced a bill in the
enate providing for the annulment OF
the charter of Coatesville. We hope
that Senator Salus will have the CO.
operation of every Senator in pass
ing this bill; that this Legislature
will endeavor to please the people by
carrying out the recommendations OF
Governor Tener who asked to have
the charter of Coatesville revoked.
The Gov. has Undoubtedly weighed
tho situation carefully. He has en-
deavored by all means to ferret out
the guilty parties so that they might
be punished, but has failed utterly in
having convicted those who have on
fessed that they we're a part of the
mob. There is probably no one who
felt the sting and pang of shame and
disgrace resulting from this barbarous,
cruel blood-thirsty murder more than
did Governor Tener. 1t was not only
a disgrace to the State but to the
civilized world; and the citizens OF
Pennsylvania excepting those at Coat

blot wiped of the fair name OF the
