hibit at Agricultural Park. There will be a
street parade this forenoon. Everywhere
where the combination has exhibited it
has had the commentator of the press
and the people SO far as we can learn.
Inc shows come to us this year with such
important accessions and approximations

comic pantomimists, and replete with
new, original and highly diverting
tricks, transformations and surprises.
Kobinson's shows have been with us
a great many seasons; they have always
been up to the top notch of promise, and
nave faithfully fulfilled every expecta-
ton raised concerning them. 1t is some
thlng to have a reputation that will
JUSTIFY such verdict. When, therefore,
the management promises US splendid
entertainment, largely novel but with all
good, old-time effects preserved, we are
warranted in believing what is stated.
we must believe, also, that the Robin
son management is truth-telling when it
asserts that its spectacular effects are I'M
surpassed, the company the largest
ever put upon the coast, the performers
second to none, and that in no scene of
the great spectacle is there sensual or
unchaSte act or suggestion.

MANY VISITORS COMING.
A Suggestion as to the Manner of Ac.
commodating Them.

A Suggestion as to the Manner of Ac-
communicating Them.
Edwin F. Smith, Secretary of the State
Agricultural Society, makes a timely sug-
gestion regarding the matter of the ac-
commodation of visitors to Sacramento
during the coming State exhibition. He
says:
'There should be some organized
movement started, and at once, to sys-
tematiZe the securing of rooms during
the State Fair. There should be estab-
lished a Bureau of Public Comfort and
Accommodations to be placed in charge
of a thorough hotel man, one who an
deTstandS the business of housing people.
The octagon building near the depot could
be utilized as headquarters, with large
sign announcing the fact that rooms with
the rates. would be furnished all who
ightapply. Inside, a roOm-board should
be arranged. with the numbers and loca-
ton Of the houses. The applicant could
make known what sort Of room was de-
sired, and be accommodated according
to the price he wished to pay. ON
nlbusses and passenger wagons could
be on hand to convey parties at a small
rate to private houses.
BY this SYSTEM a large number of peo-
ple-in fact, all who may come-could be
cared for, and Sacr3mentans must know
that the attendance this year viii be very
large. The exhibition will be such as to
warrant large attendance, and the peo-
pie will be here.
Now, why should not some organized
effort be made to care for them? Other
cities on like occasions do such things,
and why should not our people?"

attributed to the perfection
of DR.. Prices Delicious Flaw

A Political Revolution.

Hamlin Garland. the novelist. was in

ence. In an interview he expressed
himself us follows:
Il believe that the historical impor-
lance of this convention cannot be over
estimated" he said. Il predict that it
will mark the beginning of political
revolution such as this country has not
known for thirty years. can speak
more impartially than the delegates to

to the convention as mOralist and a
realist, student of the political and
social thought of the fines, who believed
that here. at this conference, there would
be developed indication of the thought
of the people of the country well worth
the closest attention.
Il find that have not been mistaken.
There are all the elements of political
revolution here because there are repre-
sentatives of the great masses of the peo-
pie ready and anxious to harmonize
upon certain just issues whose satisfac.
tory solutions are not offered by the
platform of the two older parties.
know that the south and west are ready
to cut adrift from those parties, and it

start political revolution which will

Manly Men, Not sycophants.

In a recent address at Alexandria La i,
II. E. Taubeneck. of Illinois. said by
the ballot box let us win. and not by
lorcc 1t is thousand times better to
prevent crime than to punish one. Be-
fore we can have good laws we must
have honest voters who will vote for the
protection of their own rights and inter
ests. 1t is reported you can secure all
these reforms by remaining in the old
parties. In my experience no party that
has once been corrupt can be trusted"
He argued in favor of new party,
saying it was easier to form one than to
reform any of the old ones. He argued
that the people of Louisiana. for self
preservation. would have to- do as the
people had done in Kansas. Nebraska
and North Dakota. If the people, he
said, in this country are not wise enough
to throw their petty prejudices aside
then we are lost: if wecannot unite we
are doomed.
Go home. he said. IF you cannot
unite. Tell your wife and children that
we are farmers. but endowed with the
feeling of the sycophant and traitor"

One Class Ruled Too Long.

The following extract from the plat
form of the Peoples party Of Louisiana
is to the point; y. .,.
Far be Il from US to cast any reflections on
the members of a profession that has furnished
To this state and to this country some of the
brightest minds and noblest spirits that the
world has ever seen. But their wants are not
your wants, their views are not your views,
their interests are not your interests The Ro-
man republic was ruled by the military caste.
The first French republic was ruled BY the mil
itary CASTE and in both the liberties of the pee
pie were trampled under foot. This republic
has been ruled by the plutocratic caste for
decades, and the liberties Of the people are
threatened by corporate bodies devised and ad-
vised by lawyers. Government by class must
produce legislation for a class, and we have
both today Until we get rid Of the one We can
scarcely hope to be freed Of the other.
Since the Democratic party obtained control
of the state government the offices of governor
and lieutenant governor have been invariably
held by lawyers, and on both the Democratic
tickets today before the people the candidates
for these two offices are lawyers, while the Re-
publican candidate for governor is of the same
profession. The presidency of the United
States has been monOpOlized by lawyers for
over quarter Of a century, with the exception
of the terms of President Grant, and the United
states senate mas Deen constantly cOntrOlleO
by members of the legal profession.
II is certainly not unreasonable to contend
that this uninterrupted selection of our admin
istrative officers from one class should cease,
and that they should be chosen more Impair
TALLY from the members Of various callings
and interests. so that the wants and desires Of
all may receive fair and impartial considera-
ton.
The agricultural interests have suffered and
are suffering most from the results Of unjust
legislation. From the ranks of the wealth pro-
ducers should be chosen the men who are to
administer the necessary relief. II such relief
be forthcoming. We declare emphatically
that the interests of the white and colored
races In the south are Identical, but that both
would suffer unless the undisputed control of
our government were assured to the intelli-
geDf and educated portion Of the population.
Legislation beneficial to the white man must
ut The same time be beneficial to the coored
man. Equal justice and fairness must be ac-
corded to each. and no sweeping legislation
should be allowed bearing unjustly on either.
