THE CALIFORNIA EXHIBIT OUGHT TO
HAVE A SEPARATE BUILDING.

There has been, and quite naturally,
a great deal of discussion as to how the
magnificent sum appropriated by the
state of California for the worlds fair
should be used. We have attracted the
attention OF the country by the liberal
ity of our appropriation, and we ought
to be not less solicitous to gain its ap-
proving opinion by the good sense with
which we shall apply it. AS general
proposition, it may be assumed that the
California exhibit ought to be massed.
To do this impressively, there ought to
be separate California building. While
California made a splendid exhibit at
the New Orleans exposition, its effect
was somewhat initiated against by the
fact that it was divided up. Nothing at
that great exposition was so attractive
as the Mexican building devoted to
minerals. This was an exceedingly ele-
CANT structure of iron, in the Moresque
style OF architecture. 1t was designed,
cast and erected by the keystone Bridge
company. 1t attracted universal atten-
tiOA, duQ was Nl5lbCo NY pCOPlC
than any other feature of The exposi-
ton, with the single exception of the
California exhibit. Mexico would have
made a still more impressive effect if
she had not divided up her exquis-
lite displays, one of them, and
perhaps the most elaborate, being in
the enormous main hail of the exposition
building. With such large sum at
their disposal the California commits
sioners ought to be able to erect a
superb building-one amply sufficient
to take in all the many attractive special
features of the manifold display from
this state. Concentration is the feature
most to be insisted on. There is great
temptation for our wine men to seek to
establish booths in the main hall, as
was done by E. j. Baldwin, of the Santa
Anita, and J. G. De Turk, of San Jose,
and others, at the New Orleans exposi-
tion. This selfish tendency should be
resisted by these gentlemen in the in
terest of a complete and attractive dis
play. There ought to be a splendid
California structure, and it should be
made the leading feature of the Colum-
bian exposition in all lines Of horticul-
ture, viticulture, Horticulture and min
erals, at least as respects the United
States. 1t may be safely calculated that
more people visited the California ex-
hibit at the New Orleans exposition
than looked in at the displays of any
half dozen of the other states. The Sec
tion from one of the big trees alone ex-
cited more interest than anything else
in either of the great buildings. Given
a California building and we can make
our exhibit 30 unique and wonderful
that it will be the cynosure Of all eyes.

THE GREAT AMERICAN DUMP,

In the face of the glaring facts that
are taking place every day at Castle
Garden, in New York, it is impossible for
any one to believe that the labor contract
law is not grossly and shamefully
evaded. The class of people who are
landing there in hordes forbids the idea
that they are free immigrants, paving
their own way to this country. They
are set off in gangs and marshaled to
the ferries, where they are corraled like
so many sheep until the agent who has
them in charge is ready to take them
across the river to the train in waiting
to carry them to the Pennsylvania coal
mines or to other great industrial works
in various parts Of the country. 1t is
evident that these people are brought
from Europe by authorized agents, with
the prior assurance that they will be
employed at particular places when
they arrive here, and that there is such
an understanding between the great
mine or factory owners and the agents
who supply them with this class of la
Dor. 1t may be impossible to legally
prove this, but the practical fact re-
mains that the immigrant contract law
is evaded and violated, and fails to prac-
tically subserve the purpose for which
1T was framed. If that law was
intended as corollary to the
high protective tariff, it has mis-
erably failed, and whilst foreign
goods are taxed to the full ex-
tent of the design to protect American
manufacturers against foreign competi-
tion, excluded contract labor finds an
easy way to get into the country to COM
pete with American workingmen. There
will be loud call from all classes of peo-
pie upon the next congress to remedy
this evil, which has become one of APP
palling magnitude. When we see that
the immigration from the Mediterranean
ports alone was over 5000 in April, we
can fairly estimate the enormity OF the

THE jury in the Fleming case brought
in verdict of guilty. 1t is not pleas
ant to contemplate the wreck of repu-
tation which must follow such verdict
against young man who had entered a
profession which exacts from it's mem
bers the most exemplary moral conduct.
Indeed it appears from the testimony as
to character in this case that Mr.. Flem-
ing's was never OF standard fitting him
to enter the ministry. In business mat
ters he was considered unreliable by
those who had had transactions with
him; and there was looseness of prin-
ciple about his dealings with people
which should have prevented him from
receiving orders in any Christian sect.
1t is no reflection on the ministry that
this individual has fallen from grace.
Black sheep will force their way into all
callings; but it shows lack of thorough
investigation into the moral character OF
candidates for orders when man could
be accepted whose antecedents have
been shown to be as erratic as those of
Mr.. Fleming. AS against this one unfit
teacher, the churches of all denomina-
tions can boast of a magnificent array of
clergymen of the brightest intellectual
attainments and the loftiest purity of
character.

TENNy THE swAYBACK.
The Los Angeles Horse Santiago Make
Good showing.

The Los Angeles Horse Santiago Makes
Good Showing.
The gallant Tenny--second only to
the mighty Salvator-demonstrated his
right to be classed as one OF the greatest
racehorses that ever looked through
bride. The speedy son of Rayon Dor
packed 1875 pounds yesterday to victory.
This is the heaviest weight ever carried
by winner of the Brooklyn. The
Bard carried l25 pounds in 1888. The
following summary OF the former Brook
lyn handicap will be of interest,"
Year First Second Time
1SS2-Dry Monopole. :. Blue Wing. 2:07
lssS-T@he @ Bard. .... Hanover Hanover. SdSs55s S:as5s
I991-Tenny .......... Prince Royal. 2;10
In discussing this event the sporting
editor OF the HERALD wrote as follows in
yesterdays paper:
"If Tenny is the horse he was last
year, the great swayback will about land
the money. l have always been an ar
dent admirer of Prince Royal, and shall
expect him to be well up at the finish.
Burlington will be dangerous factor in
the race. Tea Tray is speedy enough to
win, but he is liable to sulk when called
upon. think the winner will be found
among Tenny, Burlington, Tea Tray and
Prince Royal. OF the outsiders, have
great liking for the Los Angeles bred
Santiago. He will be great horse this
year, but the advices received up to date
do not state whether he is ready for a
race. Ii he is, the son of Grlnstead will
surprise great many people"
The above estimate was not very far
amiss. Santiago sho wed himself to be
great horse, but he is not yet geared
up for bruising race.

DISPATCHES say that the Chicago Hor-
ticultural society has knocked Maxwell
out, and the Florida people are jubilant.
There seems, however, to be a little
joker in this knocking out business, for
all the dispatches to Florida and else
where are accompanied by the earnest
request to boom one Reynolds, of Illi-
nois, for the place. 1t is difficult to see
how mere local organization can knock
Maxwell out, after he has been nomi-
mated by the chief officer of the Colum-
bian fair and confirmed by the national
board OF control. We doubt whether the
tail-indeed only one of the many tails
of the dog can, in this instance, wag
the whole animal. Mr.. Maxwell may
not be the best man for the position; we
never believed he was; but it is too late
now to swap him off for any of the scores
of aspirants in other states who want
his place. Mingled with some truth,
there has been a great deal of spleen,
envy and personal vindictiveness in the
intense antagonism manifested against
Mr.. Maxwell. AS far as California is
concerned, it is now Maxwell as chief of
the horticultural department or some
one of the ambitious Reynoldses from
other states. For our part, we prefer to
see California get the plum.

Now that the encouragement has de-
clared the coyote scalp bounty law con-
stitntional, we may look for large inn
portation of scalps from Arizona, New
Mexico and Nevada. Five dollars
bounty for each scalp will make the
business pay enormously, and create a
new and profitable industry in our ad
jacent territories. Coyote raisingin this
state, at the rate of $5 a head, will beat
chicken raising by several lengths.
Some eighteen years ago a law was
passed authorizing this county to pay a
twenty-five cent bounty on squirrel
scalps. 1t nearly bankrupted the county,
and some fellows, not satisfied with the
money to be made honestly under the
law, invented machine by which fac
simile of the scalp could be made out OF
all portions of the skin, SO that each
squirrel was worth several dollars to the
ingenious rogues. That machine will
probably be enlarged to meet the coyote
exigency.

GREENE B. RAUM, JR., is evidently a
chip of the old block. He has just been
bounced out of the pension Office, by
Secretary Noble, on account of ir-
regularity in the matter of appoint
ments. That means that he has taken
advantage of his position under his
father to sell appointments. His own
designation to the position he occupied
was fine instance OF nepotism. His
father only escaped removal and dis
grace by the invincible disposition on
the part Of Republican congress to
kalsomine the official representatives of
its party.

evil as a whole that is threatening the
industrial classes of this country. A
great labor demonstration was held in
Chicago on the 1st of May, and it was
addressed in no less than nine different
languages, and most of them were the
tongues that are spoken in eastern and
barbaric parts of Europe. The poly
glottery of politics in the great Lake
City leads candidates for high offices to
cater to every influence, except perhaps
the American.

IT is hard for us to believe that the
editor of the Susanville Advocate has
been fairly dealt with in his trial for
horse-stealing. Lassen county is not
famous for its literacy, and there is
doubtless much prejudice in the Lassen
mind against men who have farming"
enough to become proficient editors. Or
perhaps there is hated rival newspa-
per in Susanville which has ''put up a
job" so to speak, upon the Advocate
man. Whatever may have been the
underlying cause, we are loath to be-
lieve that any editor could have been
really guilty of horse-stealing. There
are too many reasons against such an
assumption, the chief one being that
horse-stealing and editing are incom-
patible professions. No successful horse
thief could find time to get out good
newspaper between raids, and we are
told that our esteemed contemporary
was bright, able and newsy paper.
Let us hope that the editor of the Advo-
cate will let the world know the true in
wardness of his persecution after he has
reached San Quentin, and that he shall
place the blame where it belongs. In
the meantime suspension of public
opinion is desirable.

The Great Heavy Weight Battle to Con
OFF Next Thursday.

The Great Heavy Weight Battle to Come
OF Next Thursday.
Very conflicting reports appear in the
San Francisco papers in regard to the
condition and weight of Jackson and
Corbett. The latter will probably scale
1S5 pounds next Thursday night. One
San Francisco paper claims that Jackson
scales 1914, while another puts his weight
at 200 pounds. The following opinion
taken from the Chicago Tribune, ap-
pears to be worthy of more than pass
ing notice:
The Jackson Corbett fight is attracting
the attention of the sporting world just
now, and great interest is manifested in
the result. Jackson is the favorite in
the betting. and he may win, but it will
be only after a great battle. He is up
against the most scientific man he has
ever met and may find his Waterloo.
There has been growing impression
that the black is not as good as he was,
and if that be true Corbett has an excel
lent chance to win, as the Australian
would have to be at his best to- punch
out as shifty man as the Californian.
The mill promises to be. sensational
one."

disturbed by the publicity which the
story of his whipping has received. He
now declares that he throttled McDer-

There are plenty of witnesses to the
contrary. These witnesses heard at
least fifty strokes of the horsewhip as
McDermott rained the blows on Healy,
while Heafy danced and jumped about,
yelling with pain and calling for some
one to help him. Healy must be black
and blue all over from McDermott's

reason he refused to complain against
McDermott for the assault was his fear
that the whole story would come out in
the courts. After the horsewhipping
Healy wept with vexation and pain.
