ROLLERS ON SNOW.
Huge Preparations being made to
receive Jim Lynch and his Party.

The article which appeared in the
MINER of Feb. 7th, is responded to
by the Couer d'Alene San.
The grand party which will start
on Tuesday next is composed CT the
first ladies and gentlemen of Butte.
OF their reception the Sun says:
Our face'ious contemporary has not

Lynch's scheme is already we'll
under way, and the Murray folks
are waiting tor the multitude on
rollers. The procession may have a
little difficulty in getting up to the
summit from Thompson Falls, but
from the divide to Murray the road
is as smooth as a creased: pole, and
no further effort is required than to
maintain a balance and shoot along
with the speed of lightning. Here

other meteors fit by, and perhaps
the American bird Of freedom will
come along, catch him by the seat of
his trowsers and land him in the
metropolis. In view of this grand
expedition a hotel is now building
and under roof alongside of which
the largest ~caravansary in Butte
would appear as insignificant as a
bird cage. For the uleasu reahle
diversion of the guests also, we are
pleased to announce that a rink is
already in course of construction.
1t will not be quite as large as the
Exposition building at New Orleans,
yet 1t will have sufficient capacity O
afford gyrating room to twice the
population of Butte, if they do not
ring in any of the big-footed girls
said to reside in the suburbs. The
master Of ceremonies and his assistant
as we'll as the hundred ground
owners, are now gathering up ten
ounce nuggets, one of which will be
presented to each member of the
parade. They will also give a cor.
dial welcome to the skaters under
evergreen arches with songs of a
thousand school children. blended
with the gladstone chlrp of merry
snow birds, and show them all the
hospitalic warmth they could expect
under the shade Of 200 foot cedars
and an atmospheric pressure of sew
eral hundred feet below Cairo. Let
the procession start.

Reprehenslble.

The unmannerly conduct of some
of Butte's boys, Monday, Is repre-
hensible in the extreme. The parents
of such children cannot be censured
80 much, from the fact that very
many men, ignorant of the first prin-
ciples of society or its CONVENTIONAL.
ties or else so morally CORFU, t and
lacking in those qualifications which
make gentlemen, set the example
to the youth of our city by
throwing snow balls at the people in
the procession simply for the purpose
Of doing mischief or making fun for
the immense throng of people who
gathered in thousands to witness the
procession. The Mardi Gras earpi-
val Is recognized every where on the
face of the globe to be a faithful reE-
resentation Of nature, of history of the
animal and other kingdoms, of arts
and trades, Of every transaction In
life,
To witness such scenes and INSIDE
meanors, as were perpetrated Mon
day by the loaftrish portion of the
community, followed by the good (?l
little boys and hoodiums of Butte,
casts a slur upon our city's Ieputa-
ton. Why was not the police force
enlarged to prevent such unforeseen
and unlocked for conduct? We do
not wish to censure the city auttori-
ties for this lack Of duty. It was not
presumed to occur. On the other
hand, on great occasions like this,
these things appear to spring spontan-
eously from nothing and often end
In serious results.
Not M in the entire cav
alcade was spared these insults and
several participants were injured.
There were ladies and children in the
procession who suffered from these
uncalled for assaults of ignorance
combined IN childhood and man
hood. The Offences committed are
punishable as we'll as reprehensible
and shamefel. The officials present,
almost unanimously ignored the fact
that the dignity of the procession was
marred by those acts, and with but
one or two exceptions, ignored the
presence Of these men and boys who
were "making fun" for a few of their
own ilk.
Tudor's equestrian showing Of his
troupe with his team of goats. driven
by his little daughter, was entirely
broken up. Boyce's planning mill men
were so violently assaulted they were
COL pelled to cease q work which
was representative and instructive.
The performers in the court wagon
were 80 disguised that they failed to
carry out one-sixteenth of the orig
inal programme.
The brewery displays wers also
assailed by this useless portion Of
the community, and finally, the
carriage, containing His
Majesty and suite, accompanied by
the acting Mayer of the city, were
assaulted by balls Of SNOW.
We repeat again, these scenes Of
gross violation of law and decency
should have been checked in their
lncipiency, and ev,ry one who cast
snow ball, punished for the offense
law, order, and common de-
cency.
