ANOTHER EFFECT OF TOO nuch PRICE

As an effect of the almost inexcusable
bad judgment of the management OF the

highly appreciative board seats. as in

IN THE CITY OF BLOOMS AND BLOSSOMS

hand break driven by Bert Baker and con.
tanning Clyde Baker, Miss Buell. and Miss
Dudden. The body of the break was
made of 1900 pink duchess roses and the
running gear covered with borders. The
costumes were of pink satin and very
elaborate. -Four handsome blacks tried to
get away from Mr.. Baker at every floral
salute. 81
A very handsome turnout was the large
Yosemite bus of W. s. Low, drawn by
eight gIeys and covered entirely with
5000 Gala lilies. A huge floral bear was
perched on the top and the bus was filed
with laughing children. The troupe of
horsemen was something marvellous. To
describe them would be impossible. One of
the striking ones was Ronald Thomas with
a handsome gray charger covered with a
saddle and blanket of yellow daisies.
Horsemen IN Spanish costumes; Arab
Sheiks, lancers from the regiment, vague
ros, sturdy priests, laughing children,
donkeys, ladies in striking costumes; all
in picture changing and shifting at
every curve and prance of the horses.
The novelty class contained many striking
entries. among which were Marguerite's
lover, the bicycle yacht, Flora and the
sunny south.

WASHINGTON. April 1s.-Secretary
Carlisle and Assis tant Secretary Hamlin
are interesting themselves in behalf of
California small fruit growers to prevent
if possible, the free importation of cur
rants into this country. The New York
board OF general appraisers recently de-
cided that under the new tariff law. all
currants save Zante currants could be
admitted free and for several days past
the treasury department has received a
large number OF protests against allowing
this decision to stand. 1t is learned that
yesterday Collector kilbrath. at New

the question and concluded the law was
too plain to admit of any other construc-
tion than that given 1T by the board.
Tine action OF Congress in striking all
currants from the dutiable list save those
grown in Greece called Zante currants.
was a blunder and yet the amendments
made from time to time that the particu-
lar section pla My shows an interested
purpose on the part of some to remove
the duty from currants. The treasury
officials have little faith in the favorable
result and will very likely appeal to the
courts from the decision of the Few

RIOTOUS MINERS
An Engagement Occurs Between Officers and

CINCINNATI, April 1s.-A CONNER
ciai-Gazette special from Knoxville says:
A riot occurred at Coal Greek mines TODAY
in which shots were exchanged, resulting
in the killing of Hendricks, Tennessee
miner, and the fatal wounding of Char les
Morgan. an Ohioan.
The trouble originated from the intro
ducton of electrical labor saving machin-
cry from Ohio which was obtained at a
cost of $4,000. A superintendent was
brought from Ohio with sixty miners.
The natives called the Ohioans for
eigners" and demanded their removal,
but were refused. TheIeupon 400 of them
quit work. Today a clash came in which
arms were used with the result named.
The Ohioans fled to the mountains. Forty
armed Tennesseeans have gone in pursuit,
threatening to lynch the whole lot. The

the recent decision, one would infer that
the bench sat on the merits of income
tax legislation. The tendency of people
to confound the legislative function with
the judicial is common, and really iuex-
cusable in u country with public SCHOOLS
and free press. This indifference to
ignorance of the relations that two i'm
portant departments of our political sys-
tenn bear to each other frequently embar-
rasses judicial officials in the discharge of
their duties, and many a weak-Kneed
justice has fallen down before what he
thought to be popular clamor, deciding
question of law in accordance with. per-
haps, purely temporary impulse of the
people around him. Courts are not for
the enactment of laws, but for measuring
them by the constitutional yard stick, and
interpreting them according to the in
tent of the makers. The constitution OF
state is the crystallized will of the peo-
pie. covenant that each citizen has en-
tered into with every other citizen. Ii 1t
is unjust or inefficient in operation. the
fault rests with the people adopting it.
1t is the business of the courts to con-
strue the instrument as they ind it. If
they vary from this rule to satisfy the
demands of few or many people, they vo-
late the integrity of the fundamental law
of the land, and when that is done chaos
and anarchy are in sight. If the people
do not like their organic or statute laws
let them do some altering.

THE CHILDREN ON PARADE

To the spectators the children's parade
was thing of beauty" and to the par
Elephants it will undoubtedly be "a JOY
forever" Although the other Fiesta pa
rades may be stronger in numbers and
more gorgeous in display, the procession
OF public school children will always be
the most beautifully sentimental, and
never fail to strike the tenderest chords in
the hearts of the masses. The future
presidents and successors of Mrs. Cleve-
land entered enthusiastically into the
spirit OF the time, and executed their
evolutions with a precision worthy the
National guard. Whatever change may
be deemed advisable in the coming years
regarding the features of our Fiesta, the
children turnout should not be omitted.
No careful observer could fail to note n
Yesterdays affair that in the lively
pleasure of marching young America,
and the absorbed attention OF Unlocking
thousands, there was more of genuine in
terest and satisfaction than all the 9th err
pageants together produced. 1t is a
feature that will serve to awaken and
keep alive in the receptive minds of the
growing young an interest in this most
impor, ant and pleasurable custom of an
annual festival. 1t is to be regretted that
aught occurred to mar either the enioy.

merical strength of the exhibition. We
