CRY "YELLOW -PERIL" ' Number Has Increased From 86 in Census Of 1880 to 35,000 at Pres ent Time?No More Desirable as Neighbors Than Chinese?Japan ese Intolerant of the Whites. The adoption by the California Leg islature of a concurrent resolution op posing the further unrestricted immi gration of the Japanese, and calling npon the national government for pro tection by treaty or otherwise, is the outcome of an agitation begun by the California press. "The Japanese problem," says the "Chronicle," "is no longer to be ig nored. It has been but lightly touch ed upon heretofore; now it is pressing upon California and upon the entire United States as heavily and contains i as much of menace as the matter of Chinese immigration ever did, if, in deed, it is not more serious, socially, industrially, and from an international standpoint. It demands consideration. This article shows that since 18S0, when the census noted a Japanese population in California of only 86, not less than 35,000 of the little brown men have come to this State and re mained here. At the present day the number of Japanese in the United States is very conservatively estimat ed at 100,000. Immigration is increas ing steadily, and, as in the case of the Chinese, it is the worst she has that Japan sends us. The Japanese is no more assimilable than the Chinese, and he is no less adaptable in learn ing quickly how to do the white man's work and how to get the job for him self by offering his labor for less than a white man can live on. "Japan is intensely intolerant of} the white man who visits her in any other capacity than that of the curio buying traveler. Industrially she has neither room nor welcome for the for eign devil from this side of the Paci fic. It would seem to be about time for us to take a leaf out of the Jap anese code of self-protective patriot ism." "California has a population of a million and a half people. The popu lation of all the Pacific coast States is, comparatively speaking, insignifi cant. We shall not be able at the present time to impose our beliefs about Japane.-e exclusion upon the people of the nation?eighty millions of them?who have been carefully educated to believe the Jap a charm ing little hero. We do not say this in discouragement of those who desire a restriction of Japanese immigration. Far from it. Let tnem by no means halt in the work of arousing public sentiment. But, on the other hand, it is foolish not to recognize what the facts of the matter are. It is absurd to go into the fight blindly ignorant of the nature and extent of the pro Japanese sentiment that is to be over come. "We all know that the ordinary Jap is a neat, clean, personally pleasing little fellow. We don't want to ex clude him because he is immoral or because he sells his labor (since it is more convenient) through a contrac tor. The reason we must exclude him is in order to preserve intact our Oc cidental civilization. The Jap may be our moral superior. In manners he may excel us. His philosophy of life may be a better one than ours. Yet, since self-preservation is the first law of nature, we are impelled by that immutable law to preserve our in ferior selves. "It matters not. if the Jap were an angel of light?if he could live cheap er and did not racially assimilate, he would have to go. As a matter of fact, the Jap, while personally far more pleasing that the Chinese, is tricky, dishonest, a liar, and unreli able, whereas the Chinese is usually honest, truthful, and dependable. But that has little to do with the case. What we must base all arguments upon is the great and eternal truth that two races, unassimilable. cannot occupy the same land together in peace. \ "We have expressed the opinion that no exclusion law is possible. There is, however, a possible solution of the problem without it. It may very likely happen that the Japanese Government itself, cognizant of the growing agitation in this coast, and undesirous of sacrificing the friend ship of America for the slight national advantage to be pained by unrestrict ed emigration, will put a check upon emigration of Japanese for a few years, at least, until the Japanese peo ple recover fully from the drain of the present war and are in a position to take a strong attitude toward this country. Then, indeed, we shall have a problem."?New York Mail. Alphabet for all the World. A movement is on foot for the call ing of an international conference on the adoption of a universal phonetic alphabet. It is suggested that the Roman alphabet should serve as a basis, but that slight modifications be made in the forms of the letters, which would not interfere with their legibility to any one familiar with them in their present shapes, it: order to indicate the precise sounds for which they stand. Such an alphabet it is maintained, would enable any one to pronounce correct^ at a glace the words id' a foreign language, because the spelling, apart from a few special sound.-, would be the same as in his own language. There is said to be no language so hindered by its spelling as the bhiglish.? Youth's Companion.

AN ICELESS ICE BOX. i Colder, Cleaner, Cheaper and More Convenient Than Ice. The icelcss refrigerator, which is the very latest refinement of the elec trical industry, threatens to dethrone the ice man so effectually that it may be but a short time before his shining morning lace will no longer be seen at the back door. The iceless refrig erator has been perfected for the pur poses of the butcher, storekeeper, soda water fountain and the larger household, and it has a great variety of redeeming features to recommend it. It is colder than ice, cleaner than ice, cheaper than ice and more con venient than ice. Those who have made use of the new apparatus .,ay that any one of these advantages is sufficient to warrant its introduction, but in the aggregate they are simply overwhelming. In a few words, this improvement consists of a complete cold storage plant in miniature, tucked away with in the confines of afrefrigerator of or dinary size. This aoes not mean the small ice box at present, but it is only a matter of a short time before this will be arrived at. The motor, com pressor and other necesary apparatus are disposed of in a compartment at one end of the box. The space usually taken up by the ice is oc cupied by a tank of brine, by means of which the atmosphere of the in terior is cooled. The motor operating the cooling plant is in action' only a portion of the time, during which period the brine becomes so chilled that it is entirely sufficient to main tain a proper temperature for some considerable additional period of time. For instance, in the equipment which was experimentally installed in a grocery store for me purpose of ascertaining how it met the con ditions of the establishment in actual use, the motor is rim only during the eight hours of business. Although the refrigerator is being constantly visited by the employed during that time, the temperature is always sev eral degrees lower than has ever been obtained with the use of ice.. This has been demonstrated by actual tests. The same tests have also shown that the operative costs are lower than the ice bill and the sani tary condition of the interior is far superior to that of former times when it was charged, daily with blocks ol ice, but apart from all of these, the grocery man says he is more than re paid in his emancipation from the bother and confusion of the iceman's daily visit to his store. A soda water fountain cooled by much the same ap paratus has demonstrated the econo my and cleanliness of electric refrig eration for this purpose. While the principal is not a new one there have always been obstacles which seemed insurmountable in the way of the small isolated refrigera tion plant. But these have now been successfully overcome. ? Brooklyn Eagle. "The Bushido"' in Japan. "The Bushido" means "the mortal doctrines of the Samurai," and they are obeyed by all the statesmen, sol diers and scholars of the present time with as much holy respect as the Christian's reverence for the Bible and its teachings. In Japan Buddhism is the popular religion, but Buddhist teachings are not respected by educat ed men or soldiers. In fact, most of them are atheists or agnostics, whe do not believe in any religion but the doctrines of "the Bushido." "The Bushido," for instance, teaches a man or woman to have the courage to perform hara-kiri if he or she commits any serious offense. The spirit of this doctrine is that the of fender should kill himself instead of waiting to be executed by the law, which latter is considered in Jinan as one of the most cowardly things "The Bushido" also teaches that tin life of a Japanese is a gift of the holy Mikado, and if the country need the lives of her people they should bi given gladly, for that is only to reuin, to the Mikado what they have re ceived from him. To die on the battlefield is the only key for a Japanese to find his way tc his Shinto heaven, and the soldiers who were not killed on the battle field are considered unfortunate. It is maintained in Japan that if a man gives you a favor or money, or pleas ure, you should return it with more than what was given to you.?Hdyesa buro Ohashi in Leslie's Weekly. Flour Bleached by Electricity. At least one patent?and there may be others?has been granted in this country to a process for bleaching flour by electricity. The process de pends on the bleaching action of the gases produced by sending an electric current through the air or water. A French chemist has examined a sam ple of an electrically bleached flour to see if the composition had been changed in the process; no mention is made of the source of the flour or of where it was bleached. He reports that the sample is undoubtedly whiter than the unbleached Hour, but that n has a less pleasant taste and odor. The general composition is scarcely altered; there is a slight development of acid and a change in the character of fats, a change in the direction of rancidity. It. is shown, therefore, that the food value of the Hour is not changed by bleaching, but thai the product has the odor and taste of an old and somewhat stale article. Since the whiteness of Hour j.- a purely I aesthetic matter, it certainly seems questionable whether it is worth while In please 'he eve at the expense uf I the ?alate. - \ This business of taxing bachelors is I not strictly new.
