One good effect of the new road bas been the fact that legislation iu California hostile to railroads has been shut off altogether as it is impossible to pass other Ihao general laws, and the Southern Pacific cannot he bit without the new road also beiDg attacked.

8. Tanner and Model Drag Store CBANCI FOR COMPETITION. Brother Jonathan to Meet John China-men in China Washington, May 11. Large opportunities for the introduction of Ameti-cau machinery and the investment of American capital are offered bv the peace agreement Japan has just effected with China. A provision is made that Cbiua shall hereafter be open to the introduc tion of ail forme of modern machinery and that such machinery ehall he admitted free of duty.

It is stated cotton machinery will be brought at once into extensive use, thus enlarging the demand for the raw cotton of the Southern States, The Chinese use eo much cotton that the Emperor granted a monopoly of us-ing cotton machinery to the Viceroy of the southern provinces of China. He has since produced large quantities and has prevented the British and Americans at Shanghai and eleewhere from using similar machinery. American cotton machinery should benefit especially from the new opening presented, and also telephones, electric lights, printing presses and many other devices of civilization which heretofore have been kept out of China. The Emperor of China has heretofore prohibited the introduction of modern machinery. As a result the Chinese are using wooden plows similar to those used a century ago here.

Modern tools are included under the head of machinery and mechanical devices, so the American plow and other implements snd tools will enter China free of duty. Sold Liquors to Minors.
