IH MEH'UN HATRED
If any proof were needed that the
outbreak of anti-Japanese feeling in
San Francisco a fe? months afro was
economic and social rather than natioc
ai the action of the Belllogbatn mob?
should be sufficiently strong to remove
U. The fact oi the matter la that all
the nouble lies at the resentment
which the white race feel* iu beloK dls
iilaceil by coolie Asiatics. It could not
have been a national dialike that actu
ated the moo at 8elllnghain-the peo
ple attacked were uot sul jecis of a for
eign race thai is disliked the Hindus
are British sublets. They were not
accused of plotting or attempting to in
the slightest way iuterfere with gov
ernmental affairs. Nor was there any
question of their attempting to crowd
out white children from the public
schools. There were none of the com
plications which uuderlie the attacks
upon the Japanese, hence it is plain to
<ee that the assaults were simpy cases
of haired on the part of white labor
against foreigners, who, instead of liv
ing in the comfortable way our labor
ers live, would work for less money and
subsist on a fraction of what they are
paid.
The same feeling governs the atti
tude of all white laboring men of the
Pacific coast towarJ Chinese, Japanese
anil Hindus alike: yet it would be
wrong to say that the case would have
[>een any different in any other section
of the country if like conditions exist
ed. It is a deep rooted American econ
omic prejudice and not racial, and can
not be removed by argument or denun
ciation.
The protection of American labor is
the paramount social and labor qttei
tion with us. American men and worn
eu must be afforded relief from the In
roads of these diseased and half starv
ing hordes, from whatever country they
may coine, and should it become neces
sary to exclude them all forever, it
should be done.
satTnic editors
A Portland minister handled the ed
itors of the country very roughly in a
sermon which he delivered before his
congregation in that city last Sunday.
He took for his theme "In His Steps,
or What Would Satan Do If He Were
An Editor.- WhiU the Holy Man
dallied with his dissertation the Dews
paper wen got at least a whiff of the
sulphur that is said to abound in the
region through which Sows the Styx.
Ibis man of the Lord in his sermon
wappld out just what the devil would
do if he were in charge of a newspaper
plant and had with him the office devil
anu, curiously enough, his Satanic
Majesty, according to the .preacher,
'vould not make many changes from
the uiacuer in which it is being run
uxiay. Now tfcere m?y be something
iu this minister man's talk after all, for
we have found that, while claiming 110
connection with him, we sometimes
have a devil of a lima getting out a
paper. That minister painted the
vilenessof the vocation so luridly that
It forced us to pick up our little broken
looking g ass and peek timidly therein
to ascertain if we were not Indeed en
dowed with borns, and with a mighty
effort we glanced behind us to ascertain,
for sure, if we did not have attached to
us a barbed tail and afterwards peeped
slyly at our feet to sae if they were not
of cloven shape -certainly the preach
er's outburst will make the editors of
the country sorely grieved when they
begin to think what a bad lot they are.
The good man got warmed up towards
the latter part of bis sermon and rapp
ed off the following final knock:
"In my humble judgment the devil
will not assume the editorial chair in
this country for he is too well repre
sented there to care for any change, so
far n reform measure? and religious
teachings are concerned." And furth
er, "It would be unfair tc ssy that al[
papers are equally gnilty, but of a
dally that meets the ehical require
ments of a chrlatlan home, the speaker
bas no knowledge."
To be sure these editors are a b^d
lot but, all in ail, they will average
along fairly evenly with the preachers.
DOCTOR USES TEN WORDS
FOR LAST TESTAMENT;
Baltimore, Sept. 20 ? The shortest,
will on reoord, perhapi, is tbat of Dr.
Albert B Lyman, which was filed for
probate la the orphans' court today.
With on* sentence, "I give everything
to my wife," the testator disposed of
bis entire es'ate. Then, fearing com
plication might arise to give M? wife
trouble ia admlnNterlng the estate,
some years later he exeouted a codical,
containing just four words acd making
more complete the one sentence in the
will. The codicil reads: "and name

SCALT ERUPTIONS
lii BCD!
Itched Constantly? Scratched Until
Blood Flowed? Suffered 10 Years
? Doctors and Medicines Were
Fruiftess? Tries Cuticura and Is
Completely Cured
BY THREE BOXES OF
CUTICURA OINTMENT
i "'When I was about nine rears old
gmall sores appeared on each of my
,K lower limt?. I scratched them with a
oru's H'" ???"
shortly afterwards
both of tho.se liml >s
became so sort' that
I could scarcely
walk. When 1 had
been Buffering for
about a month the
sores began to heal,
but small scaly
eruptions appeared
where the sores had
been. From that
time onward I was
troubled by such
severe itching that,
until -I became
accustomed to it. I would 6tratch tiie
sores until the blood began to flow.
This would stop tin- itching for a few
days; but scaly places would api*"ar
again and the itching would accompany
them. After I suffered atxmt ten years
X made a renewed effort to effect a cure.
The eruptions by this time had apjH-ared
oil every part of my body except my
face and hands. The U-st doctor in my
native county advised me to use arsenic
in small doses and a salve. [ then used
to bathe the sores in a mixture which
gave almost intolerable pain. In addi
tion I used other retnedies.such as iodine,
sulphur, nine salve. 's Salve,
Ointment, and in fact I was con
tinually giving some remedy a fair trial,
never using less than one or two boxes or ?
bottles. All this was fruitions. Finally
rayhairbegantofalloutandl was rapidly *
becoming bald. I used 's ,
but it did no good. A few months after,
liaving used almost everything else, I
thought I would try Outiciira Ointment,
having previously used Cuticura Soap
and being pleased with it. After using
three boxes I was completely aired,
and my hair was nstored. after fourteen
years of suffering and an expenditure of
at least $.=>0 to St'H) in vainly endeavoring
to find a cure. I shall bo" glad to write
to any one who may lie interested in
mv cure. B. Hiram Mattlngly, Ver
