Disastrous Effects of Demonstration on
Labor.

To those who have not yet discussed
the reason why labor goes begging, and
the causes that have lead to the present
prostration Of commerce and industry
in this country, we will recommend the
consideration of the following extracts
taken from an article written by Hon
Lionel A. Sheldon, and published in a
recent issue OF the Los Angeles Daily
Times:
There would be more demand for la.
Dor II there were more enterprise. That
enterprise is less than it should be, is a
result OF the want of a sufficient volume
OF money. Hitherto we have had re-
course to foreign money with which to
develop our boundless resources instead
of providing our own. Our railroads
have been largely built with foreign cap
ital and projectors OF enterprises Of any
considerable magnitude still seek 1t. The
vantageous, as it contributes to remove
our deficiency, but the time has come
when we are under pressure to pay in
terest and dividends upon foreign capi-
tai Ou- methods in the past have been
characterized by utter blindness as TO
the future. II we had availed ourselves
OF our natural monetary resources we
would not now be constantly drained TO
meet foreign liabilities; We would be
paying interest and dividends to our own
people and retaining our wealth at home.
Conditions, financial and in business,
if we bad relied upon our own resources.
Prices OF property are low, enterprise is
hampered because our volume oil circu.
lating medium is sufficient, and as a
necessary result there is less employ
ment to be gwen. Consumption is
lessened because people are forced to
economize. Onr money volume is reg
ulated 10y the wants of foreign Instead
Of domestic trade, though the latter is
Twelve times greater taan The former
The fact that increase OF population,
production and trade require enlarge
ment OF the volume of the circulating
medium has been dsregarded. In fnan-
cial matters we have adopted the theories
OF rival nations, and have neglected TO
take care of our own interests Money
is tool, and it is as senseless to attempt
to do our business on our present volume
as IL would be- to attempt to keep
thousand men employed with a supply
of instruments for half that number.
Without an adequate volume OF money
there cannot be active trade or healthful
and vigorous industrial growth.

THOUSANDS SEE THE SHOW.
Features Which ELECTED Vast
Applause.
WIN GREAT HONORs.
Though the Jokes Were Very Old
They Were Appreciated by the
Packed House.

Five thousand people packed the soci-
ely circus tent at Central Park last night
and came several times very near rending
the gigantic canvas with their aggregated
soul-swelling riaudits of the performers.
AS a charitable society event tae circus
was grand success. AS circus it was
very credtable to the performers, though
little hard on the audience.
A more effective spectacle than the grand
march it is hard to imagine, and when the
long line of performers circled the tent the
crowd gave vent to wild applause which
was only eQualed when the sixty surging
OlYmpians started out on the pyramidal
pereggination and decentralization OF
the tent. Illuminated by the calcium light
the young athletes gave the sole feature
of the performance which had not remin-
iscent flavor.
In the other acts the amusement was
greatest when the participants failed 10
do what they ought to have done and did
those things which they ought not to have
done. For instance, when Ed Miner laid
himself down in the sawdust of the
ring and said in soothing sYllables.
Come, Barney. lie down, there's a pet"
and the baud PLAYED lullaby TO encourage
him. Barney mistook the music for
waltz and, instead of laying its head on
Miners manly corporation, went await
ing around the ring amid the laughter of
the crowd. This act was better than it
would have been as ordered.
That was an unintentional shot, too,
that Elmer Depue gave Amsdee Joullln.
Disguised as dude Joullin rushed from
the audience to run The ring, and after
several adventures. in which he narrowly
escaped being thrown out by policeman,
he secured the whip only TO be asked the
question, Are you an artist?" The
audience roared, Joullin laughed, and
then Harry Clark on "White Wings" went
through the usual barebacked performance
in the ring
Ringmaster knight, clad in the conven-
tional red coat, had numerous spats with

a few of the questions that were hurled
at the struggling officer of the law.
Help! here, you men," shouted the
constable, as the woman renewed her
frantic struggles for liberty. Soon the
furious woman was surrounded, disarmed
and placed in little hut used by military
organ cations S a guardhOuSe.
Then the painting constable explained
why he had arrested the forlorn gypsy.
Actually she had the audacity to open up
shooting-gallery without permit or
license; worse. still, she really owed the
management of the grounds 81 for the
privilege of running a gallery during a
picnic last year.
"Oh! is that ALP" and great wave of
relief swept over the spectators. Then the
band played Two Little Girls in Blue"
and hundred little girls" with their
escorts were soon tripping as merrily as
though there was neither q forlorn gypsy
woman in the world nor an unpaid license
There were other incidents of the day of
more pleasing nature. For instance,
dozens went out in rowboats over the har-
Dor, whose waters were scarcely ruffled by
the gentle breeze from the Golden Gate.
Then there were boat races, ard such
races. They were not exactly according
TO Hovle or Hanlan or Gaudaur. but they
were exciting, nevertheless.
In the first contest, which was over a
mile course with turn, f. Livingston and
