Mob Chases Hindus from
City in-1 Hurry
St Toll us was iu
most bordering on anarchy for a few
minutes Monday evening. As
result several Hindu laborers were
bandied In a manner that was pretty
"rough and wholesale arrests were
made. The trouble had been brew
ing for some time on account of the
imbiber of Hindus constantly in
creasing at the St. Johns lumber
mill. White men, it has been said,
have been replaced by these tur
baued fellows, and a strong feeling
of animosity toward them was en
gendered. It is understood tliat
they have been giveu strong hints
Jto leave the city by ncvcral of the
young men who are said to have
btfen in" the mob, but no uttcntiou
was paid tb this arbitrary demand.
The feeling of animosity against
the Hindus was greatly augmented
by the report of an increase iu the
, number of Johnny Bull's subjects,
'and the fact that several had .rented
quarters and were living, overhead

day oiight, either by accident or
design, upon the street, andjhreats
were made of chasing them all out

.the idea be put into practice at

Johns forthwith. With this inten
tion a crowd made for the quarters
occupied "by the Hindus, while
others went to the mill, vhichMs
running' night and day. Every
Hindu that was encountered was
peremptorily ordered to. stop work
.and. get out of town at once. If
auy kesitaucy Wm shown several
of the mob grabbed the man and
escorted him to the street car, and
the manner in which he was takeii
up the hill waa decidedly rough.
The same procedure was adopted
at the Hindu habitations. T,be
mob becauie more and more ex
cited every momeut .and several of
the Hindus were struck with fists
andiatlcks, and window panes were
broken and doors battered. Chief
ef Pellee Xredecoa: was at ltome at
the time and ta hurried call, was
' saade for -hita. Arriving op the
scene tie? r the bank corner in jig

beaded ones and advised and im
' J plored tbesa to deeiet from their vi-
cious attack. The soundness of the
, chiefs advise gradually began to
' K impress them, and their criminal
-acta were abaudoued. Mayor Hen

he could find-to'assist him in quelling

mill sight, where the greatest ac

theTiot, the man( indicated "was at
once placed under arrest. No pro
testation of innocence or proof of
an alibi availed in x freeing the bus-
Eccts, and one and all to the Burn
er of 27 were garnered at police
headquarters in the city hall. The
only manner in which any could
espapc from going to the county
jail was to furnish ball in the sum
of ,iooo cash, or $ 2000 paper. " A
dozen" succeeded in securing bonds,
but the other 15 were taken to Fort
Stevens.
That the mob was woefully
wrong in taking the radical steps
they did is conceded by all. It Was
the very worst method that could
possibly be adopted, and nothing
but-censure can be attached to their
condition ni.l!!5!: !S?,b!!'?
If the people of which the mob was
composed had grievances' against
the Hindus a method inside the
limit of the law should have been
adopted, and not by riot and. bru
tality.
While the Hindus arc' aa un
desirable class of citizens by reason
of their grotesque appearance and
filthy condition, yet they ate human
beings ana entitled to our pro
tcction. so long as they conduct
themselves iu a proper manner. .It
may be. true that they have usurped
white labor at the mill, and it may
not be truc-vc do not know. But
we do know that several times
during the past ycur the mill man
agement has sent men to look
around the street corners itf quest
tor men to do work at the mill, but
the Idle mcti approached invariably
expressed themselves as not caring
to do that kind of work. White
men have been tried time and ogaiu
on the rougher work, and the man
agement never knew whether, they
would be back at work next morn-.
ing or not probably not. There
was ever three shifts one coming,
one going ana one at worK. As a
last result to keep the mill going,
the black men were employed. And
they could always be depended up
on. It able to work at all they
would be en hand every day. -They
were not. paid the wages as a' gen
eral rule that, were paid white men
because they are not worth as much
as American labor, being more slow
and deliberate in their movements.

Would not work or could not be
secured, and as long' as Hindus
would, work and.iuake up in a
shortage of pay, what they lacked
iu ability to perform their 'tasks,
was it hot their right and privilege
so. to do? J Here may be otner
phases to the situajion that we are
not cognizant of, but these are the
facts from the mill men's point of
view.
It is, on the other hand, a far
from nlcasinsf sight to see these
daik-skiuucd fellows, who' will not
conform" to American .customs,
parading up aud down the public
thoroughfares and it does not
speak well for a city that employs
them, "Of course they are entitled
to a living, but they should adopt
thedresti of the country, take a
bath occasionally and-atteinpt to
become citizens of the United States
instead of coming here and scrap

HIGH BRIDGE AT
THIS PLACE
Is Dtstnriitje of Serious
CMsHtoratin .
The rroeltiou of a high bridge
at St. Johns should net be lost sight
of these political days. The bridge
is a necessity and would -be of
immense value to, the city. The
project, ia a large one and it will be
some time before it materializes,
out steps toward acquiring it can
nst be taken (00 soon. No better
time than Jthc present to begin pre
liminary"proccedlngs could be de
sired. It is impossible to secure a
free ferry at this time, aud, in fact,
it is not probable for a number of
years to come. The bill authoris
ing the county to operate a free
ferry at this point was limited to
two years only, and that time is
drawing mighty near to a close.
The county officials have refused
to op.Tutc the present ferry, and
the chances of calling a special
election and voting bonds for a new
one are almost nil. Anyhow, this
could not be done within the time
specified in the bill that passed the
legislature eighteen -months ago
through the efficient work of Hon.
K. C. Couch. Since we have failed
to take advantage, of this act, it is
not likely that the legislators will
pass another bill extending the
time. This being the status of the
matter in reeard to a free ferry, it
is questionable if we shall have such
an institution here within the next
five veers. By that time a high
bridge should be erected between
St. Johns end Whitwood Court. It
is the only point where a suspension
bridge can easily be built between
here and the steel bridge. , All big
uudertakiugs.auot have a beginning
and we contend ' that right new M
the time to get under way with this
project. The legislature, meets
again this fall, and a petition with,
all the names of voters on the Pe
ninsula, the west side aud. many
from Portland proper should be. got
ten in readiness and presented to
that body when it next convenes.
Such a petition of set of petitions
could not fail in securing their care
ful and thoughtful attention.
To, get such a petition circulated
properly. would require the services
several good mea for several
weeks. To provide a fund forucur
rying this work on, a mass meeting
should be called and subscriptions
solicited,. Every business man in
St. Johns, no doubt, would be in
terested enough iu the project to
lend a little financial assistance.
The' cost would be small aud- the
benefit great. Why not make the
effort? The Commercial Club might
well, devote a portion of its time to
this proposition and provide ways
and means for carrying the work
along, Now is the .time to. get
busy.

The Price of Meat
Paradoxical as it may seem to
the unenlightened, the increased
price of meat unquestionably will
be of very great advantage to the
public. At least it will Induce
thinking men and women, mid a
few who do not think, to give sonic
consideration to the subject of scien
tific dietetics. I he more otic studies
this subject the more one is com
pelled to realize that, meat Is not by
any means a necessary article of
food, for one possessed 01 a healthy
stomach. One should also rciuciu-
cr that when meat is not obtain
able, one is not by nuy means
deprived of animal food. For in
stance, milk and eggs and cheese,
and the various products of the
dairy, arc animal foods, und they
practically take tne place ot meat
as far as nourishing .the body is
concerned, even for one who has
the impression that an animal diet
is necessary.
buch an impression, However, is
entirely unjustifiable. Meat is not
necessary to life oc to health; iu
fact, none of the animal products
arc necessary to health. There may
be conditions of disease, whcrc tin-
uial food, such as is found iu milk
and eggs, is absolutely essential to
(he building up of the vigor aud
vitality that arc lucking under cer
tain circumstances. Iu fact, there
may be diseased conditions where
even red meat can be used witli ad
vantage, but a careful study of the
diet question, aud of the physical
condition of those who perform
various duties, will convince one
beyond all possible doubt that au
animal diet predisposes towards
disease. Iu other words, it is in
clined to fill the sy.stem with poi
sons und' effete, matter which clog
the tissues, aud which are the
cause of serious acute and chronic
diseases. IJernarr Macfaddeu, iu

The new high school building
