A BARBARIC CUSTOM.
Wo wish a law could bo passed
prohibiting tho barbaric custom of
opening caskets In public at church.
funerals, says tho Springfield News.
It Is ix rollo of dark ages and has no
plnco In a civilized community. It
Jars on tho sonslbllltlos of every ten
dor cord, and Is something that the
churches nnd undertakers ought to
comblno nnd put t.o an end. In ntno
tenths of tho cases It Is merely a
pandering of ghoulish curiosity. Peo
plu who nover spoke to tho deceased
In their llfo parado nround tho
church, gnpo at tho form of the loved
ono, then go out of tho presence of
doath, not to talk of tho good deeds
done in life, but to criticise tho ap
pearance of tho poor clay that death
has; loft for onco at tholr mercy.
Death Is n sacred thinor. If wo are
dBg on U long journey we do not
make, our miteus before a gaping
, crowd; wo ought not to be expected
to bid our dead a last good-bye whllo
curious oyes fatton on our grief, nnd
wo ought not to bo expected to sit In
tho houso of mourning whllo people
wo nevor spoko to, who havo no claim
on us or our loved ono, jostlo each
other In their doalro to view tho re
mains, and they got togother and
gossip over what thoy saw or failed
to see. Wo bellovo that tho majority
of tho peoplo detest tho painful
funeral scenes ns much as wo do
nnd would he moro than glad to see
them ended hut aro afraid to break
a "custom'." Jt Is a duty tho minis
tor nnd undertaker owo to them
selves and a long suffering public to
put n stop to tho exhibition; and
thoy will find tho public only too
glad to uphold, them with a hearty

THB .MUCH-ABUSED OREGONIAN
Friday tho Oregonlan editorially
complains that Tho Capital Journnl
misquotes and misrepresents and
trents that papor unfairly.
Wo did call attontlon to tho prom
inent manner In which It MIXED UP
SENATOR FULTON with the Uma
tilla lnnd fraud transaction.
Whllo tho Oregonlan editorially
gives Fulton lukowarm dofonso, its
nows roports aro filled with stuff to
dostroy tho confldenco of tho pe'oplo
In his Integrity.
To provo this, It gavo columns to
advertising Senator La Follotto, of
Wisconsin, nnd connoctcd up Sena
tor Fulton's nnmo with tho "systom,"
which tho soml-Domocrnt from Wis
consin wns to expose
It printed La Follotto's picture and
n stntemont thnt tho peoplo would
bo given n chnnco to HEAR HIM EX-
POSE FULTON'S RECORD. .
Then Saturday It printed a column
report of La Follotto's roaBt at tho
Whlto Tcmplo, In which tho gronns
nnd hisses for Sonntor Fulton are
niado tho leading feature
It makes La Follotto ouloglzo
Qcarln nnd Bourne nnd covor Fulton
with Infamy ns fnr as that Is possible
In prosontlng his rocord on tho rate
hill.
Still It would havo tho peoplo bo-
llovo Sonntor Fulton nnd his friends
bellovo THAT IT IS A I'RIEND of
tho Oregon Senator.
Because Tho Capital Journnl will
not seo this In the light of n kind
nnd consistent nnd frlondly act, It Is
"mentnl obliquity."
Thoro Is no montnl obliquity In
tho Oregonlnn's treatment of public
mon and prlvnto cltlzonB. IT IS
EVER FAIR AND COURTEOUS.
Having dragooned Sonntor Fulton
Into recommondlng Its porsonnl can
dldato for Collector of Customs, It
proceeds to shoot him full of holes.
Tho Prosldont will simply turn
sommorsoults to got n chnnco to ap
point tho porsonnl cnndldato of tho
Orognnlan, It treats- public men so
fairly.
It wns novor known to misquote
or mlsroprosont nnyono. It novor
misroprosonted Mark Hnnnn or Tros
Idont MoKlnloy FOR MONTHS AT A
TIME.
For tho prlvllogo of having n
chnnco to honor a newspaper that
wns over fair nnd courteous nnd
kind tho Prosldont will nnmo any
Insurnnco broker tho Oregonlan sug
gests to a high federal ofllco.
Tho Capltat Journnl promlsos on
Its bonded kneos thnt It will nover
agntn misquote, mlsroprosont or
othorwlso nhiiso tho Oregonlan, nnd
nsks Its forglvonoss nnd prays for
Us pnrdon forovermoro.
Sizing Up tho Japanese.
So far ns the special case Is con
corned of tho rights of Japanese
youths In San Francisco schools, tho
trouble Is In a fair wny of adjust
ment. But whllo this particular
eruption may bo healed, tho blood
condition remains from which futuro
outbreaks may bo expected.
In California and Hawaii, where
ho Is best known, tho clnlpt is mado
that tho "smiling little brown man"
Is Insolent nnd dlsagroenblo In tho
oxtrcmo when In a position where
thoso qualities nro not likely prompt
ly to react upon himself; that is to
sny, when ho Is many Instead of few
Tho basis of tho Chinese unpopular
ity, his refusal to adopt tho land of
his adoption, seems to exist In tho
Jnpnnoso, desplto the oft- romnrked
Imltntlveness of tho latter.
Thoro is a dlfferonco, hilt It Is n
surfaco dlfforonce. Tho Japanese
quickly takes up with tho mission
ary effort to convert him, nccoptlng
tho now teachings enthusiastically,
and thus assisting himself Into posi
tion and popularity which tho less
diplomatic Chinese nover attained.
Ho ndmlros America, which fow Chi-
ncso ovor claim to do, and makes
great efforts to learn tho language.
But when ho no longor needs his mis
sionaries, thoy nro pained to find him
as dovout n Buddhist ns ever. Ills
admiration for America docs not go
tho length of naturalization. His
fealty to Japan Is ctornal, his appar
ent fealty to America a tactful means
of getting tho greatest posslblo re
turns out of Amorlcn.
This Is tho Pacific coast and tho
Hawaiian opinion of tho Jap. Ha
waiian planters nro now refusing to
employ him. Union labor, In Cali
fornia Is proparlng to fight him uwny
from tho const. Last year 17,000 of
him camo to tho United States, in
cluding Hawaii. Ho Is now working
eastward, and has already reached
tho eastern limit of tho Rocky moun

tinue ns Indigestible Increment, seri
