The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1895-04-17

Immediately noticeable, for the spirit of
fun was abroad. The balls, the theaters,
the parties the crowds and the maskers
were all outward and visible signs that
with the ending of Lent had come new
order of things municipal. Yet with a
season of carnival rule, and with carni-
val spirit permeating every street and
seemingly every house. a something was
lacking. That something was supplied
yesterday when the loved Queen = La
Reina de la Feista-came into her favor
lite city and received the ready homage of
her subjects.
And right royal was the welcome ac-
corded her by the populace. Her majesty
was announced to arrive at l O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, and almost exactly
at that time the special train bearing her
majesty steamed into the Arcade depot
amid the shouts of the delighted people.
Long before l p. m. crowds began to
gather in and around the station build
ing. Groups would collect and discuss
the decorations that had been passed on
the way to the depot. Now and again
looks would be cast down the track to see

court drew up at the stairway, and their
precious burdens were deposited. The
members OF the court seated themselves
on either side of the Queen and the re, q
mony OF installation followed. Mayor
RAIDER spoke as follows:
August and Gracious Majesty: On be-
half of the Town of the Queen of the
Angeles | welcome thee to the city of
thy reign. Thy coming to this land
OF the sunny south brings Joy and
everything is revelry and gaiety. The
magic wand of pleasure has been waved
o er the city of the Fiesta carnival. and
thou seest 1T arrayed in garments of gilt
tering tinsel and wreathed in the gorge
Gus hues of blooming flowers.
Into thy hands, o bounteous Queen, 1
place the key of our city. Thy will is
law, and thy laws. as officially proclaimed
are to the ends of pleasure. Obedent to
thy commands, all earthly pursuits have
been abandoned, and thy people are dane
ing and feasting and revellng in song and
laughter.
I'VE welcome thee with Joy and mirth
to this ia. land of peace and plenty.
"Whe balmy breezes mock the winter
months,
And semi-tropic skies curve low.
Whe Q birds forset that seasons ever chan C.
And luscious fruits perennial grow.
Where golden gates that open to the West
Match golden hearts that open East
Inviting all the world with arrest will
To join in La Fiesta's feast"
He then rendered the Queen the great
golden key which is supposed to guard
the city's treasures. 1t was accepted
with gracious smile and bow of appre.

Rough on SchuylkiIl's NJ. G.

From the Knights of Labor Journal.
In an article of two columns length
the New York World on Saturday last
fully exposed the scheme now being
pushed in congress called the "Reilly
Refunding Bill" This bill is for the
purpose of robbing the people of the
United States of S64, 900, 600 due it by G..
p. Huntingdon and his confere thieves,
who made their fortunes out of the
building of the Union Pacific and other
railroads which the government was
foolish enough to furnish the money for.
If this Democratic congress wants to
finish the job Of hari-kari for the party,
it can do it in no better way than by pass
ing this refunding bill of Reilly's,
BY the way, this is not Reilly who
keeps the hotel, but Reilly, of Pennsyl-
yania, that state belonging to Quay,
Cameron, Martin & Co., and which is
filled with the work people who furnish
these millions through taxation. Many
of Reilly's constituents are now starving
for want OF bread, while he is pushing a
bill through congress that will rob them
of SG4, ,000,000 and give it to the railroad
wrcckers, who live in luxury. Is this a
representative government?

Equitable Valuation Demanded.

From the Lehehton Advocate.
The AdC0cate calls earnestly upon the
county commissioners to reconstruct and
arrange the assessment rating in this
county, both in regards to occupation
and land yalues. The system, or the
rate at least, in this county, covering
both these. has been, and is, very un-
just, We think that there has been too
much unjust and perhaps just little
dishonest discrimination. What we
want TO see is the rich mineral lands, To-
Gated in the upper end of Carbon county,
assessed at an honest, fair and equitable
valuation-nothing more.
We don't believe that because there
almost priceless acres are owned by cor
porations, that they should be taxed to
death, but we are of the firm conviction
that they should be rated honestly and
fairly and we call ON the commissioners
to assist the assessors in doing this and
once done we are confident that the
courts will sustain them.
For years, coal lands have been assess
ed at about the same valuation as farm
lands and the time has come when the
people demand that this dishonest dis
elimination shall cease. VIII the com
missioners be equal to the emergency?

When to Stop Advertising.

An English journal requested a num-
Der of its largest advertisers to give their
opinions concerning the best time to
stop advertising, and the following re-
plies were received:
When the population ceases to multi
ply and the generations that crowd on
| after you and never heard of you stop
coming on.
When you have convinced everybody
whose life will touch yours that you
have better goods and lower prices than
they can get anywhere else.
When you perceive it to be the rule
that men who never advertise are out
stripping their ncighbors in the same
line OF business.
When men stop making fortunes right
in your sight solely through the direct
use of the mighty agent.
When you can forget the words of the
shrewdest and most successful business
men concerning the main cause of their
prosperity.
When every man has become so thor
oughly a creature of habit that he will
certainly buy this year where he bought
last year
When younger and fresher houses in
your line cease starting up and using
the newspapers in telling how much bet
ter they can do for them than you can.
When you would rather have your
own way and fail than to take advice
/ and win.
/ When nobody else thinks it pays to

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1895-01-28

The proposition which has been laid
before the people for their consideration
by the borough school directors for the
erection of a S29,o eight-room school
building is just now becoming the sub
iect of much discussion. So far as it
has gone the drift of public opinion
seems to be unfayorable to any increase
of debt for the erection of such build
ing. The previous mistakes made by
the directors are serious obstacles in the
way OF bringing the matter to a success
ful termination, and in calling for the
will Of the taxpayers a more liberal ex-
PLANTATION of the directors intention in
regard to the building is now demanded.
The plans of one particular kind of a
building, one particular architect and
and one particular price are not deemed
satisfactory and have created a feeling
of distrust among the taxpayers which
viii be hard to overcome.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1895-01-28

The trouble about the proposition is
that it is very definite, in fact too def
mite to suit many of the taxpayers. They
are not over scrupulous whether it is
the design proposed or something else.
1t is the money they are looking at. An
etght-room building which would cost
$4,000 in the city of Wikes-B Barre,
might possibly be erected in Freeland
by u man from Allentown, Mauch
Chunk, or some other part of the state
for Sl5,00 if an opportunity was given
The indications are, however, that all
contractors are to be excluded but the
parties from Wilkes Barre, therefore, il
leaves the question in simplifed form
one which is easily understood--do the
people of Freeland want an eight-room
building which will cost S22, 900?

IhlS Is an enormous sum to pay for
the kind of structure proposed and n
defeat of the proposition will not be sur
prising. There is urgent need for add-
tional school accommodations, and there
is nothing which the public should take
more interest in supplying, but if there
Is no guarantee given the taxpayers
that their money will be spent judicious-
", it is certainly their duty to withhold
the privilege. Under ordinary circum-
stances | don't think the voters would
hesitate II moment in giving their CON
sent to increase the debt. The schools
should be provided for liberally, and it
is rare to hear Of man who is not will
ing that it should be done. Neverthe-
less, the suspicion exists that majority
OF the board would not properly expend
the money, and judging from recent de-
velopmonts the distrust is wel-founded.

The week following a squib in one of
the local papers announced that Malloy
had shot another huge catamount, and
the animal again appeared at the store
door Those who didn't see the first
one came to see the latest. Among the
latter were several urchins from Ridge
street, who after examining the animal
critically for few minutes, one of
them exclaimed, "Say kids, dat Maloy
is a sooner of a politician; it's dc same
old catermount, Let us see who will
invent the best method in the coming
campaign to make votes.

Speaking of elections and the various
plans that candidates sometimes invent
to come in contact with the voters re-
minds me of a little incident which oc-
Cured about this time last year. Hugh
Malloy was candidate for tax collector,
and believing that Il personal talk with
the citizens would increase his chances,
he hit upon brilliant scheme to meet
the voters. Hugh is u noted hunter,
and few days after his nomination he
hied himself to the wilds of the Honey
hole on hunting tour. In the evening
he returned and the fruits of his trip
was a monster catamount. This was
hung up outside his store door for the
public to view, and, it is said, as people
came and went Malloy's canvass doomed
Immensely.
