 The Supreme court of California has de- cided that city ordinance prohibiting the explosion of frecrackers or the ignition of other kinds. of fireworks is constitutional, even though the effect of it be to prevent Chinese from performing funeral rites at the graves of departed friends that they regard as obligatory and sacred in high degree. A Chinaman was arrested in San Jose for vio- lating this ordinance at funeral of his coun- trymen, and was adjudged guilty in the lower court. On appeal, this judgment was affirm ed on the ground that, while the State con- stitution guaranteed to all men, without dis tinction, the free observance of their relig ion, it excepted acts or practices that are in- consistent with the peace and security of the State.
 Justice s. J. Field, of the United States Supreme court, is in favor of improving the Mississippi river, and says that while he ia vors careful revision of the tariff he would not at once make such changes as would de- range business but ''a tariff should have for it's main purpose tho raising of revenue, and at the same time furnish incidental protec- tion'' to our industries. He wants concilia- ton with the South. But as means of making conciliation thorough, and as t'sslight reraration for the burdens inflicted upon the South by the miserable and corrupt carpet bag governments ? he would returnt to the South s'the unjust cotton tax, {" amounting to nearly twenty millions of dollars. All this looks as if there were some truth in the assertion which has been made that Judge Field is 8 candidate for the presidential nom- ination, and expects support from the South.

From the Huron convention we have
statement that
"Governor Ordway is here, but he is
friendless and forsaken;" that he was cen.
sured for not signing the constitutional
convention bill passed by the last legis-
lature.
From other sources we learn that he
was cleft" in the capital deal. Alex. Nc
Kenzie is responsible for this statement,
and Mckenzie knows, though he may
not state things just as they are.
1t is the general conclusion that if Ord.
way was outwitted in the capital specu-
lation, Hughes is the man who accom-.
plished his overthrow. Retribution ap.

Itis given out as rumor by the Sioux
City Journal that compromise was ef-
fected between the north and south
whereby the south was to drop it's legal
contest against the capital commission
and as consideration for this course
the north was to keep out of the Huron
convention. The rumor possesses no
truth. Alex Mckenzie came to Ysnkton
for the purpose of entering into such an
arrangement, if possible, but was met
with a decided refusal to compromise on
single point. He was assured that any
attempt on the part of his northern
forces to interfere with the Huron con-
vention would be met with determined
front aud that the admission of northern
delegates would be positively denied
and the denial enforced. This is proba-
bly, the cause of the inactivity of Bis
marck's people during the deliberations
at Huron.

The selection OF Sioux Falls as the
place for the constitutional convention
will prove eminently satisfactory to the
people of Southern Dakota. Yankton
was its single competitor, as Yankton
and Sioux Falls are the only Southeast
ern Dakota cities possessing facilities for
the accommodation of q protracted ses.
sion of so large gathering. Yankton,
however, accepts the decision of the Hu.
ron convention in excellent spirit and
congratulates Sieux Falls on obtaining
the most important gathering ever held
in Dakota.

ings from which the factional spirit of
the past was entirely eliminated. 1t is
IN encouraging day for Dakota when the
representatives of the people
can work with perfect harmony for
the accomplishment of an object of par.

convention has been called and that il
may do its work wisely and we'll is the
earnest wish of every loyal Dakotaian.
Those in our midst who are
here solely to make money from
political opportunities will not eympa-
thize with this feeling. They should be
ignored and prevented from having any
voice in the selection of the material OF
which the constitutional convention is
to be composed. The people know them

Death Of Mr.. Perkins.

P. G.. S. Perkins, jr., died Thurs
day of last week at the residence OF
Prof. Clack, on East Hill, of lock-
jaw, superindQced by a wound in
the heel. Mention was made in
these columns of the railroad acct
dent which resulted in his death, at
the time it occurred, and it was no
ted in last issue that he was not ex-
pected to recover, so that the sad
event of his premature demise came
not as a sudden shock upon his
friends. They had been looking
for the worst for several days, yet
their grief was none the less poig-
nant. Death in any form is a hide
Gus monster, but a more horrible
death than that caused by lockjaw
can hardly be imagined. He lay in
a state of extreme suffering for
several days, conscious all the
while, yet surely dying, and all that
the science of physic and the ten
derness of mother and brother and
friends could do for him was to
slightly lull the pain that was kill
ing him.
His funeral services were con-
Quoted by Rev. DR.. Wright, and the
remains of the manly young man
were inferred at Maplewood Gene
terry Friday afternoon.
Conductor Bud Billings and his
entire crew of engineer and brake
men, with whom Mr.. Perkins served
tor years, came down to pay last
tribute to the memory of their asso-
ciate and friend by attending his
funeral.
