The Lesson of the Case.
If the indignation aroused
throughout the country by the cruel
murder of Elsie Sigel has the effect
which is now anticipated of dampen
ing the enthusiasm and diminishing
the numl*er of Chinese missionary
workers in this country, the poor
girl will ljot have lived in vain, de
spite h r untimely end. The fact
that these missionary workers are
almost invariably young women,
and that a missionary is required
for each Chinaman, creates a pe
culiarly dangerous and potential
situation which demands the seri
ous consideration of thinking Amer
icans who have a care for the purity
of their race and the honor of the
country’s womanhood. The terri
ble menace of this sort of missionary
work consists in the fact that it al
ways appeals to the sentimental side
of the workers, and, as everolrody
knows, where a woman is concerned
when sentiment comes in at the
door prudence and common sense
fly out at the window. As evidence
of the iirational character of the in
terest which these misguided female
missionaries feel in their proteges,
an assistant Tinted States district
attorney for the Eastern district of
Missouri states that they invariably
take sides with the Chinese who are
brought into court on charges of
fraudulent entry into this country.
In one instance he cites, a St. Louis
minister, his wife and lb-year-old
daughter appeared lx*fore him to
plead for a Chinaman who was
about to be deported, and who, it
was shown, had a wife in China
and was making love to a St. Louise
girl. When the situation was ex
plained, the only reply came from
the woman, who remarked that if
American girls would act in that
way we could expect nothing better
from a poor Chinaman. Moreover,
according to Inspector Dunn of the
United States immigration Bureau,
the intimate association of white
girls with Chinese is no new thing,
hut a constantly growing custom in
this country. White girls bent on
missionary labors visit the Chinese
and are alone with them for hours
at a time in their laundries, chop
suey joints and other like resorts of
the low class Chinese laborers.
The influences which these con"
ditions exert are better imagined
then expressed in print.
The shocking fate of Elsie Sigel
only lends point to the certain fact
that a 3’oimg American girl is no
match for the cunning and duplicity
of these foreign devils —to use a
phrase which is always employed
by the Chinese in their own country
in referring to all foreigners. And
when sentiment comes into play,
whether mawkish or genuine, there
can lie hut one of two ends to such
an association, one lieing that of
Elsie Bigel and the other leading to
miscegenation, for marriage between
two such dissimilar races as the
white and yellow is certainly noth
ing less. A Chinaman, particu
larly the low class of coolies who
come to this country, can never
live, think or feel like a white man,
much less an innocent white wo-
man. The lesson of this unspeak
able New York tragedy is that
parents and guardians should exert
every possible influence to prevent
their daughters and wards from
engaging in Chinese missionary
work. Aside from its dangers it is
time wasted in any event, for as
Elsie Sigel’s uncle betterly said.
“Not one Chinese conversion in a
thousand is genuine.” —Kansas
City Journal.
An O’er True Tale,
A Clay Center man tells this al
leged baseball story; “It was in
the twelfth inning of a game Ik>-
tween Junction City and Manhattan
at the close of along and intense
season, where the issue hung in the
balance up to the finish. The
game stood 2 to 1 for Junction City
through eignt long innings and the
grand stand swam in tears. Man
hattan was at the bat with the bases
full and two out. The wind stopped
blowing- Nobody breathed. The
Manhattan man who came to bat
was pale, but his teeth were clir.ch
ed. He took two strikes. Finally
he found it. The ball rose* like* a
rocket and sailed for center field.
An earthquake and a tornado split
the grand stand. But an unbeliev
ble thing happened. The pitch
er jumped up, and against
all sense of possibility pullled
the ball down threw to first
made the third out and saved
the game. Many people fainted.
Some lost their reasom. Nobody
could understand it. It was not
until years afterward, when tin
pitcher was on his death hod that
he confessed to having caught a bird
that passed over his head The run
ner was put out with an English
sparrow. The ball never was found
—Kansas City Journal.
“I Am The State.”
“I shall place the suspensions of
Mr. McLendon upon the ground
that he has entirely abandoned the
principles upon which lu* was;
elected. It matters not whether I
the legislature sustains me or not.
I will have releived myself of a bur
den. The people of Georgia will
understand that Mr. McLendon is
no longer MY commissioner.”
So spoke Hoke Smith —still, for
a few hours, governor of Georgia —
discussing his action in removing
the Hon. Guyton McLendon from
the office of railroad commissoner.
“Not MY commissioner.”
How do the people of Georgia
like the sound of it? Not since
Georgia has been a sovereign state
have her people heard that sort of
talk,
“Not MY commissioner.’’
Therefore he must go; he must
he kicked out, humiliated and held
up to scorn. These underlings
must be taught their place, even
though it is “My” last official act.
“Not MY commissioner.”
W hy, the man dares think for
himself. He presumes too much on
the fact that railroad commissioners
are now elected by the people, the
same as the governor. As long as
he was MY commissioner,he was all
right; but now that he has pre
sumed to think and act for himself
—in direct conflict with MY instruc
tions, and the interests of MY for
mer clients —lie is a Benedict Ar
nold, and must walk the plank.
“Not MY commissioner.”
Not MY state treasurer, either,
was the late Treasurer Park.
Hence vouchers were held-up and
MY wrath displayed against him
generally. I even dismissed the
announcement of his death with
the briefest possible mention in MY
farewell address to MY legislature.
Not MY prison commissioner —
neither!
And they, too, have been made
to feel what it is to incur MY enmity
I refused to let them buy a farm
for MY convicts, and have pro
-4
nounced them and all of their acts
had before MY people.
All these, and more, I have pun
ished during MY one term as gov
ernor. I’d have visited MY wrath
upon them all had the “durn fools”
of Geoagia not taken into their
heads to make the first man I fired
from office MY successor before 1
had even Begun to get the seat
warm —much less the state house
generally.
MY only regret is that I didn’t
make it warmer for more of them.
1 should have fired them all, from
the janitor to the supreme court —
not forgetting certain members of
the court of appeals —while I was
aliout it. and put in MY own men.
And, then, in turn, have fired them,
ha and theys hown a disposition to for
get that they were MINE —as Mc-
Lendon did.
Really, it is the only way for a
dictator to dictate. Letting other
| state officers assume that they have
a right to their own views, and are
free to act on their, and not MY
I opinion,—merely because they hap
pen to have been elected by the
1 same authority that elected ME —
is where most of the trouble crept
in. I should have appointed anew
set of state-house officers, supreme
court and all, at the very outset —
and have them come to MV office
for orders every morning.
It’s MY way of running things,
anyway; and I can see now that I
was entirely too lenient in letting
any of them —except the few who
duly acknowledged allegiance to
ME —serve out their terms.
However, the public is still MY
oyster —at least I continue to Ire
guile myself with the idea that t ear
fool ’em some more —and I will yet
see what may lx* done about it.
In the meantime, the first man
I kicked out of office is going to be
governor in MY stead.

“fwo Bugs and a Locus.”
A few days ago one of the attaches
connected with the Tuberculosis
Exhibition was calling up various
societies and women’s clubs, invit
ing them to attend a committee
meeting. It happened that one of
the club mem tiers was out and Mary,
the servant, answered the phone.
The stenographer said, “Hello.”
“Hello, dar; who am it a speak
in’?’’ was the responee.
“This is the Tuberculosis Exhi
bition. Is Mrs. Dash in?
“No, missus ain’t, but Use kin
take do message.”
“Well,” said the stenographer,
“please tell her to attend the com
mittee meeting this afternoon at the
Tuberculosis Exhibition.”
When the mistress went home in
the afternoon she was met at the
door by the servant who said,
“Lawd, missus, they want you to
spoke at some kinder mootin' this
afternoon.”
"Well,” said the mistress, “what
kind of meeting Mary?”
"I doesn’t know, ma’am, but de
lady said it was some kinder meet
in’ about two bugs and a locus’.” —

derstand that Mr. McLendon is no

now understand that the Railroad
Commissioners of the State are the
personal property of the Governor?
