THEY INCREASE.
The Editorial Excursionists Augment
in Number.
Further Preparations Here-The Floral
Movement Started Lively
Work Ahead.

The dispatches from the East yesterday
spoke of the editorial excursionists gath
cred at Colorado Springs at the dedica-
ton of the ChiIdsDrexel Union Printers
Home as 1000 in number and that all
were likely to come on to California.
If this is correct the Sacramento COM
mittees will have their mettle tested, for
they must provide for 800 more than an
ticipated. But this is gratifying, for what
was wanted was large party OF these
visitors, who constitute the most i'm
portant excursion party that ever came
to California, and which will see more of
and be more intelligently instructed con-
corning California than any predecessors.
For instance, 1000 copies of a book ex-
haustive ofall solid. authentic information
about the State, and published for such
purpose by the State Board of Trade. will
be given them, with State map and a
separate map of each county. Commit
tees from the agricultural, horticultural
and mining boards meet them in the
south with corps of stenographers and
typewriters to take down and write out
desired responses to inquiries by the
L
south as San Diego, west as Santa Rosa
and southeast as Monterey, and are the
first excursionists 10 go into the mines
Ihey are three times at Sacramento, so
THAT this point, as central, will be i'm
pressed upon them.
Dispatches to-day will be received by
Secretary II. L. Miller giving the exact
number in the party when it reaches
Albuquerque, n. NJ.
CARRIAGES AGAIN.
Mr.. Harmon reports these additional
citizens as agreeing to come out in vehi-
cles to escort guests from the depot to
places where they are to lunch and then
to carry them to other points. E. j.

carriages that will carry 230 people, leav-
ing over 700 unprovided for. The street
cars cannot take from the depot over POO
i'll time for lunch. There are needed 100
more carriages. In Southern California
private vehicles will be turned out to
drive the whole excursion party about
Riverside and Sacramento can do that if
she tries.
1t is understood, of course, that if pos
slble owners of vehicles will drive and
thus become hosts and informants.
Postals to-day rendering all vehicles
needed ought TO be sent to r. B. Harmon,
1911 q street. Arrangements have been
made for plenty of room for vehicles
along Second street, both sides, and along
the cross street back OF the circular eX-
hibition building. Chief of Police
Rodgers says he will have a force on
hand to keep the lines nicely. There
will be no crowding and not a particle of
inconvenience, not tenth part so much
as a large outdoor concert at the Plaza.
