Lincoln Park Should
Be Well Shown
Up.
Flower PurlOinerS and
the Pay Roll
Fiends
Should Receive an Airing
from the State
Senators.
Some Resolutions Which Ought
in Justice TO
Pass.

There is something behind the
Bartling resolution providing for an
investigation Of the Lincoln Park
Commissioners. Senator Bartlng's
interview, which is hereafter given,
deals with a number Of trivial mat
ters, but it is generally understood
that the Senator contends that the
investigation shall include more seri-
Gus questions. An intimation is given
that the doings of the Commissioners
relative to submerged lands created
by the driveways will be looked into.
1t is claimed that the Commissioners
have purchased submerged lands after
reclaiming them at extravagant fig
ures, and this is the real thing Bart
ling is after. There are three or -four
bills in the House on this question.
The first was introduced by Mr..
Meyer, of Cook, and was intended tC
make the law of 1889, under which
the driveway was commenced, more
explicit in its terms. Its object was
to declare that the extension of the
driveway should be on the water line
instead of being built out in the lake.
Mr.. Lyman introduced bill con
tirmatory of the powers in the 1885
act, and it more explicitly gives the
Commissioners the power to reclaim
lands, to build driveways, and tC
purchase or condemn lands for said
driveway. Senator O'Malley's bill
was even more explicit than that Of
Mr.. Lyman.
Text OF the Resolution.
Mr.. Bartling's resolution is as fol-
lows;

ernor to investigate the conduct oi
the Board of Park Commissioners lol

Democratic Wigwam Erec-
tors Are Mad About
Something.
They Say that Treasurer
Seeberger Is Too Slow
to Suit,
And that They Are Willing TO Accept
Part Of the Balance.

peonle who contributed literally
to the fund for erecting the wigwam
in which the National Democratic
Convention met last summer, are
wondering why Treasurer Seeberger
does not distribute the Surp us which
was left over amongst them pro rata
This surplus is alleged to amount
to between $6, 600 and SO, 600.
Treasurer Seeberger's neglect to
distribute it is laid to the fact that
that distinguished gentleman has
been exceedingly busy with Worlds
Fair matters, and has not had the
time to look after the job.
Hence the delay.
But the delay has engendered i'm
patience, and impatience has devel-
oped growl.
THE EAGLE has received a letter
from a prominent banker asking 1t
to explain, if possible, why it is that
the thousands left over after paying
the expenses for building the wigwam
are not given back to the liberal
donors.
Perhaps Secretary Seeberger will
explain the matter when he gets
time
In view Of the great amount OF
private gossip about this matter, a
review Of the history of the building
which caused the surplus to spring
into existence will not be uninter-
esting.
On the 23d day of January, 1892,
there met at the Palmer House, in
the city of Chicago, Judge now Gov
crnor) John p Altgeld, John A. King,
Walter 5. Boyle, f. H. Winston, De-
Witt c. Cregier, w. c. Goudy, A. +.
Seeberger Charles Kern, Lambert
Tree, General John c. Black and A
7. Ewing Of Chicago; and Arthur
Sewell, S. p. Sheerin, c. S. Thomas
and J. ]. Richardson of the National
Committee.
Judge John p. Altgeld was called
upon to preside, and A. T. Ewing
acted as secretary.
These gentlemen met for the pur
pose of making preliminary arrange
ments for the National Democratic
Convention, which was to be held In
the city of Chicago, June 2l, 1892.
That meeting was the beginning oi
the surplus.
1t was agreed that the committee
on behalf OF the citizens of Chicago
would furnish rooms for the Nationa
Committee, travelling expense:
OF the committee TO and from
Chicago. hotel expenses Of Ma
tional Committeeman and their wives
while in Ch cago, room for the con
ventlon, with music and all OF the CT
cetsras which money could buy.
No one dreamed Of a surplus re
manning after they cot through.

Leo Austrian,
This committee raised the sur
plus.
The national committee having
decided that it required hall to
seat about 5000 persons.
After canvassing the several large
buildings in the city, the local com
mittee decided upon building con-
vention hall that would seat 10000
people, depending upon the gener-
osity of the citi. ems of Chicago
backed by their usual local pride, to
furnish them with the means of build
ing the hall.
Hence the surplus.
Plans were submitted and finally
adopted for the erection of build
ing with an actual seating capacity
of 10, 600, and which would be in all
respects a model convention ball.
The citizens of Chicago nobly re-
sponded to the appeal OF the local
committee, and supplied ample means
for carrying out all the plans in rela-
tion to the building and caring for
the national committee.
The wigwam was built, as every
body knows.
The Finance Committee discharged
its duty well.
The Treasurer saw that there was
no extravaganza, and after paying all
the bills, there was left in the treas
ury, according to most accounts, a
balance said to range from $4,000 to
900 in amount.
1t is the distribution of this bal
ance, or rather the lack of distribu-
tion, which is causing a fuction.
Some of the heaviest contributors
are kicking like steers.
They say that Treasurer SeebergeI
is altogether too slow in dividing VI
what is left
Others are really mad about it.
All of the committee who have
been talked with say that there ought
to be a meeting pretty soon to see
what can be done.
In the meantime no one is going tC
run away with the surplus, because
Mr.. Seeberger is very careful man.
A CIRCUMSTANCE attending a re
cent murder trial in Texas has eX
cited great public interest in tina
State. The trial occurred at Colum
bus. Arthur King was on trial fO
the murder of Frank Williams, nea
Eagle Lake, Sept. IL, 1892. Th,
jury was mpaneled, and it being lat
in the afternoon the court adjourned
for supper. Evidently the Texa
courts have expeditions method
which would shock the judicial aggre
CATION and the bar Of a Northern
city. After supper the trial proceed
ed. The examination Of witnesse
was continued until ! / O'Clock, whel
an adjournment was about to be had
At that moment Judge BeauregarC
BRYAN, presiding at the trial, was in
formed that Jud Williams, a brothe
Of the man for whose murder KIM
was on trial, had secretly passed
flask of whisky to b. l.. Willis, on
Of the jurymen. Whatever maliciou
|. wits may say of barbarous condition
at the South, nothing in this in
stance justihes their jeSts. The tria
was stopped. Judge Bryan called u
before him the juror Willis and Jut
Williams. Both were severely repri
manded and Williams was sent t
Jail, to stay there until the furthe
orders OF the court. He then sal,
that this fragrant misconduct woult
be calculated 10 throw doubt upol
any verdict that might be rendere,
and discharged the jury The actioI
OF Judge Bryan is universally com
mended and popular opinion regard
ing the administration of justice Il
Texas should be In It's favor.

THE CATTLE SHOW.

Not the Largest Witnessed Here. But
Excellent in Quality.
The first grand stock parade took place
on Saturday forenoon. and, contrary to
the general expectation, the display was a
fine one, both as regards numbers and
quality, the line extending more than a
mile.
The attendance, however, did not bear
out the claim of large class of persons,
that cattle shows and displays of farming
products are she chief attractions of agri-
cultural fairs. If the State Fair had to
depend on these branches for its receipts
the number of visitors would be COM
paratively small
There was a good showing of horses,
brood mares, colts and jacks in the pro-
cesslon, but the display of cattle was
much the larger. Heilbron Bros. of this
city had their Hereford and Durham
herd in the line; p. Murphy of Brighton
was on hand with sixteen handsome Dur
hams, and DR.. G. NJ. Dixon of this
county was represented by a herd OF
handsome POlled Angus.
Other herds shown were Frank Burke's
Holsteins, Coleman Younger's short
horns, George Bement & Sons Holsteins,
Henry Pierce's Jerseys, Mrs. Il. A.

AN OPPORTUNITY KISSED.
Suggestion From a Sacramentan at
the Worlds Fair.
Los Angeles Making Friends by Giving
Away Fruit-Why Cannot
Sacramento Do Sos

! In private letter a resident of this
city, who is visiting the Worlds Fair,
makes some suggestions that may be
worth needing by our fruit-growers. He
says, after complimenting the exhibit of
Calitia Parlor and speaking Of the atten-
ton it receives from visitors:
Il listened very patiently to hear the
expressions of visitors to our building,
and from not one did L hear anything but
eXclamations of wonder and delight at
the varied exhibits from our State-it is
only Caliiornians who grumble because
they see the same things at home
Il viii say one thing about our county
exhibit, and that is, that the tluit-growers
of our county ought to contribute fruit to
give to the people-not two or three
boxes, but fifty or 100 every few days.
Los Angeles does this, and the result is
that their section is filled with people
seeking information about Southern Cal
itornla. When | was in our county ex-
hibit one box of fresh plums lay on the
table, with the sign Hands Ofn placed
upon it, and the consequence was that
people passed through without stopping
to seek information.
the fruit-grOwers of our county
OueuI " Ndh6 up 70 lu8lf own interest and
send fruit to Mr.. McMullen to be dis
trbuted."
1t is a possible thing that fruit-grow-
ers of this county cannot afford to send
| that amount of fruit and pay freight on
it, but it is also possible that if they sent
the fruit some arrangement might be
made by which the freight could be paid
out Of the appropriations made by our
Supervisors in aid OF the exhibit. Why
not?
The exhibit is not made in the interest
Of fruit-growers alone, but in the interest
OF the whole county, and one industry
can hardly be expected to bear the whole
burdens for the common good.
II action OF any kind is to be taken,
however, it cannot be too speedily done.
as the season is now far advanced and
fruit takes nearly week to reach Chi
cago.
1t is worth an effort, as Los Angeles
well knows and shows by her action that
she appreciates the value of attracting
attention.

We certainly indorse what our neigh
Dor, the RECoRD-UNIoN says regarding
our home houses sending their work and
advertisements out of the city. If our
business people do not stand by one an
other evil results are sure to follow.
There can be no adequate benefit in our
business houses, or in individuals, pat
roniZing outside concerns to the neglect
of our home institutions. Herein lies the
great doctrine of protection and reci-
procity. 1t is much better for a com
munity to assist the constituent parts
rather than to injure them by patronizing
other than home industry.

A Practical Joke That Came Near

 Michael Cornell went to his room at his boarding house on East Main street last night, and to his surprise saw that some one had tumbled into his bed, boots and all. "Come Get out of here," said Michael, but the occupant said never a word. Down stairs went Connell for his room mate, and both looked with disgust at dummy the boys had made up. The pair made an examination and finding that none of their own clothes had been used opened the window and threw the dummy into the street. In it's fall it struck the window of J. F. Hammelrs saloon, breaking a large light of glass. MT Hammell being in his room, which is directly over his saloon, heard the crash, and the first thought that entered his mind was burglars. He ran down stairs and seeing the man, as he sup. posed, lying on the sidewalk, called an officer. The guardian of the law ar rived and grabbed for his man, but let go quickly, saying it was time to report at the station, and Mir Hammell went back wondering who was having the fun, anyhow.
