Fitting Occasion for Celebrations In
Every Portion of the Civilized World

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The "historic and

for all parade purposes, and il was there
fore an hour and three-quarters after the
appointed time before the pageant was
put in motion.
1t was To have started at s o'clock; the
first of the tableaux did not reach the
Astor House until 1920
The preliminary part Of the proceed
ings, parade of bicyclers, some of them
dressed In fantastic costumes to represent
Indians, etc, was somewhat tame and
tedious, but the crowd still waited pa
tiently, though with strange mIsgivings
on the part or many OF them as TO ever
reaching home that night.
After the wheelmen came twelve her
alds mounted on fine, amblip- vsite
steeds and preceding Col. John ar
nett, the grand marshal, and his <ides.

Death Yesterday.
WALTHAM, Mass, Oct. 13.-Three new
cases OF scarlet fever and one death from
that disease combined with the fact that
the board Of health has found no place
to take tho patients, is causing serious
apprehension in this city.
Agent Il. n. Quinn and n number OF
inspectors have searched Waltham from

without success. One man was sent TO
Medford TO try and get house, but he
bad his trip for nothing, rs he learned
that the supposed owner OF the house he
wanted was now owned by a Waltham
man and not by the Mcdford resident.
There seems to be a terrible dread i'm the
minds OF house owners regarding the dis
case, aud no one can b. induced to allow
his house to DO used for that purpose.

Let Those Who Elect Select.

The New York Worldsays that the Estates
which cannot contribute any electoral
votes should resolutely put aside their own
preferences SO far as to let the States that
elect select the Democratic nominee for
President. Correct and good.
1.-The candidate must be one who can
surely carry New York, New Jersey. Con-
necticut, and Indiana. The votes of those
States are absolutely necessary to the cleo
ton of Democratic President" it adds,
and speaks truly. but the votes OF the
southern States are also necessary.
In other words, it will not do TO assume
that any man on any platform can carry
the southern States. Judge STAPLES, in
his interview published in the DISPATCH of
Sunday, pointed out the danger of any
such assumption. The South should be
considered as well as New York. New Jer-
sey, Connecticut, and Indiana, and the rest
of the Union.

The Governors Powers.

We must say that Judge PonrLocK hard
ly treated Governor MCKINNEY with the
respect which was due TO him as the heao
of this old Commonwealth. Weare CONN.,
dent that the Governor wrote his letter 10
Judge PonrLocK without any intention 70
reflect upon him or any of the authorizes
of his county. His letter seems to us 10
be nothing more than friendly request
from one State official who had not inves-
tigated the matter or studied the subject
10 another State official who had stud.ed
the subject. The Constitution OF Virginia
provides that the Executive. Legislative
and Judicial Departments of theState Gov
eminent shall be separate and distinct.
40 that neither shall exercise the powers
properly belonging to either OF the others.
II also provides that no person shall exer-
cIse the power of more than one OF these
at the same time except as provided IN
that instrument. Nevertheless, it is the
Governors dnty TO take care that the laws
be faithfully executed, and If they are to
be executed at all it must be by the OH
GERS intrusted with their execution.

The Direct Tax.

Hundreds of people in Virginia are tor

and the State authorities about the de-
lay [" in distributing the direct tax.
And yet 1t appears from official sources.
o. set forth in Sundays Dispatch, that the
average amount which claimants in this
State will receive will be between $3.50
and IS.
Those who hope to become rich from this
Windfall are therefore doomed to disap-
pointment.
As for 1.-THE delay I" Il is clearly explained
that 1t is caused by the saRacious deter
iaina.ion Of the State authorities to find
out to whom the money is due before pay
ment of il is begun. However, claimants
may expect to get their money IN the
course of two or three months.
