II appears to be settled that somehow
associated with the Atlanta Exposition
there is to be a sham bull ight-a fight
with padded bulls, padded horses, and
padded matadores, so that neither blood
nor bruises will be in evidence.
We can imagine nothing more dismal
than sham bull fight.
On the other hand, we know OF a good

OUR contemporary, The.Cannon Falls
Beacon, explains a heretofore thing OF
speculation as follows: IA lawyer in a
court room may call man a liar, scoun-
drel, william, or thief, and no one makes
q complaint when court adjourns. II a
newspaper prints such reflection on q
mans character there is libel suit or
a dead editor. This is owing to the fact
that the people believe what an editor
says; what the lawyer says cuts no figure. :"

them well dressed. In the course OF an hour
a visitor heard nearly dozen OF them make
speeches that were as full Of practical busi,
ness as they were free from fudge; and
every man IN the convention seemed 10 ba
ready TO give his views off hand. The parlia-
mentary rules were enforced with a rigor sur
passing that of Congress. As for the banquet,
that the delegates enjoyed after the close OF
convention, one may infer from the menu
that il did not fall far behind the Chamber
of Commerce standard.

fight, conducted as it is in Spanish Amer

fight, conducted as it is in Spanish Amer
ica for instance, rather than in Madrid.
A bull fight is not the sort OF sport
that we should like TO see introduced in-
to these United Safes. II Is we'll that the
law ana the public nip in the bud every
attempt to introduce the sport of bull
fighting on our soil. But the newspapers
give us a record almost daily OF sport that
is far more offensive to witness, and mnch
more brutal in reality than any kind OF a
bull fight that we know OF. Nothing,
for instance, that we can imagine in the
way OF so-ealled sport can be more repul-
sive than a dog fight or a cock fight. We
need not mention pugilism, for the fact
that that is engaged in by human beings,
calls for none OF our sympathy, even il
we may be disposed to deprecate the
prize fight as an unwholesome kind of
entertainment. But to engage dogs or
cocks in a merciless combat at manning,
tearing, mutilating and killing one
another, sports that are distinctly Anglo
Saxon, is more offensive thing than any
other we can think of that is designed
TO make public sport, except, perhaps,
the bull fight as done in Madrid.
The losthsomeness of the Spanish bull
fight, however, does not attach to the
batting and the killing OF the bull, so
much as to the cruel slaughter of the
blindfolded horses that are driven up to
the horns OF the bull TO be gored and
disemboweled, that the torro may taste
blood and thus be stimulated TO make q
hotter fight against the matador. Many
OF US have read accounts of these bull
fights, and they must be horrid specta-
Gle. In many Spanish American coun-
tries, however, the interest i'm bull fight
is not made to depend upon this wicked
torture of old hacks, but upon the com
bat with the bull, and it may be said
that the killing Of the bull is hardly
more merciless than the doing of the job
in a slaughter house. In a word, the bull
is not tortured, even though he may be
reused TO desperate anger, and his killing,
by the sword Of practiced matador, is
as swift and merciful as could be desired.
A matador who should make botch Of
his clever job would never be tolerated.
And the picador who would permit his
fine horse to be so much as scratched in
his cavortings about the bull would have
hard work to get another engagement in
the arena. Such show gives fine ex-
hibition of horsemanship, clever athletic
work, and the fate of the bull is sealed
doubt it is an inspiriting exhibition, al
though the fact that the bull is doomed
from the moment 1t enters the arena
robs II of the wholesome charm of fair
play that makes true sport attractive to a
healthy mind.
We. do not care to be taken as defend
ing bull fights. We only want to ex-
press the opinion that here in the
United States are tolerated, to a greater
or less degree, according to local opinion
In various parts Of the country, kind OF
sports far more repulsive than bull fights
need be. And we think that IL the At
lanta Exposition is to give US a sham bull
fight, it can be only doleful and abso-
lutely inexcusable sort of entertainment,
having no posi- bic element Of attractive
ness In II.

The tax rate must be kept as low as

The Recent Reception to Delegates to
the State Convention.
At the close of the regular meeting
Tuesday afternoon of the Sacramento
Women's Christian Temperance Union, a
reception was rendered the delegates,
Mrs. n. Hutchinson, Mrs. G. Condo, Mrs.
c. P. Huntoon and Mrs. II. NJ. Smith. to
the State Convention held in San Fran
cisco last week.
Mrs. Hutchinson read an excellent re-
port of the work accomplished by the
different departments throughout the
Northern California district, and supple
mented them by many thoughts OF her
own. all of which were received by her
audience with much enthusiasm.
The other three delegates each con-
tributed few remarks, and those of their
hearers who were compelled to remain at
home while the State Convention was in
session felt partially repaid by hearing
such glowing accounts and witnessing
their enthusiasm in the work. AS one
delegate remarked: 1--WE are all going
again next year. not as delegates, because
we want someone else TO enjoy the good
things as well as ourselves"
