The Japanese as a race have a low estimate of woman as a created being and as to the purpose of her creation and uses to which she should be put. And Californians refuse to put their wives and daughters within the influence or effect of that low estimate. Save as to Orientals and blacks, there is no state in the Union where there is less demarkation of nationality than in California. The intermingling, socially and commercially, and the in termarriage of Americans and Iri«h. Jews, Italians and French strikes every one who at all studies the conditions in C ali fornia. .. . . But the Californian does draw the line against the brown man. who. at home and in California, complacently regards all femininity, from 1 year to 100 years of age. as natural acces sory to his vileness. The government of our country depends upon the character of the men who rule It—the character of those men has lt« genesis In the home.

PROMOTING JUDICIAL DIGNITY After a conference to devise means of Increasing the "dignity of the Judicial office, the Justices of the superior court of Massachusetts have decided to don flowing robes of black. They did not favor powdered wigs, once deemed so essential to Judicial dignity. But If the rob-s don't produce the desired effect. It will be easy to add th<- wigs. The learned Justice* are di ?> rrrlnel to have respect. If they have to experiment with every garemnt known to courtroom annals. Abe Lincoln sometimes wore a nightcap and a shawl. Ho dlc.n t go in very strong for mere "dignity" In dress; yet somehow his memory seems to be reaping a pretty fair harre»t of respect. Maybe the fact that he never tried to be otherwise than human had something to do with It. , "Dignity" which has to be got by dressing a part is ofen not worth the effort. "The apparel." Shakespeare tells, "oft proclaims the man." and it Is wise policy to be In fashion with the time. But we don't reel at all sure that the Massachusetts Judges are choosing the best way to re-establish the prestige which their office once commanded I*t them try the robes, by all means —a Judge in any robe would atlii be a man But if the wlsbed-for respect falls to follow, permit us to suggest an alternative: Be fair, human, sympathetic. Stop weaving into law the prejudices of a claas. Let the subject of the next conference be not whst to put on but what to cut out—in the tangled jungle which men Ironically call "justice." Try really to promote substantial Justice as between man and man. Then It won't make much difference what clothes you wear (hough you lived In a forest and wore the skins of wild beasts, civilisation would force a pathway to your door and coming ages bow In honor.

Is Inimical to the spirit under which our forefathers conceived and nurtured this great country of our*, that we, their pos terity, might enjoy the blessings of liberty and peace The desire of man to exchange hi* energies, for a mean* to further that which we call life Is but a working out of the law of self-preservation; thus these concerns sap their tribute from the very fount of his exist ence. I shall not take *pace to cite the nefarious methods of these Institu tions, as many examples of their atrocious practices have been aired from time to time In Tho Star, but rather suggest a remedy. There Is little use to try and legislate against them, since these vampires have their clutches on the purse strings of the worklngman, and can pour In a stream of gold that will smother any hill or pigeon-hole any measure to curtail their graft. EDITORIAL PAGE. OF THE STAR Could not tho abolition of tho private employment agency be put to the direct. vote of the people, the name an the double-platoon system for firemen? If so, I believe for once the worklngmen would hang together and shnke the shackles of this 20th century peon ego from them and render null and void the condition* which permit, thin bread-and butter tax to be levied upon them CHAS.
