BUTTE, May 31.-A number of itinerant
musicians are making the city more or
less melodious with a very doubtful quail
iy Of music. The music is ground out
IRON hand organs and squeezed ont OF
accordeons that are terribly out Of tune.
Bad as the music is no particular objcc-
ton is made to il by the citizens; their
ground for complaint is Of n different
character. They object to the practice Of
the padrone system, as with one excep-
ton, the hand organ, the alleged music is
made by little children, so small and
young that they are barely able 10
carry their instruments. When
darkness sets in the little ones
are gathered up by n big, lazy Italian, who
herds them along like sheep and takes
the nickels and dimes that they have
gathered during the day.
This afternoon n number Of indignant
citizens gathered about the padrone, and
for a time il looked decidedly as IL he
would receive rather rough treatment at
their hands. However, nothing was done
with him, and he was allowed TO go his
way.
