The Reed Ranks

Speaker Reed is sadly discouraged

feel that the fight was over so

ayers would not admit the possibility
den was their leader there and no
stronger, shrewder politician than he
does the country hold. Yet the sad
truth is that Connecticut is practically
lost to Reed. The most he can hope for
from that state is all the votes on the
first ballot with an arrangement that
all will go to Mckinley on the next. or
a delegation divided from the start. The
truth is, New England has gone to
pieces as base on which to build the
Reed boom. Connecticut has followed
New Hampshire, and now we have in
Washington the most sensational ru-
mors as to Massachusetts. From sour
ces of information we'll within the in
ner circle of the Reed camp, learn
there is a great fear of what Massa-
chusetts is going to do. 1t is we'll known
that a number of Mckinley men have
been elected to ST Louis from that state
and some of them have been threat
ening to break away. There are even
whispers that Senator Cabot Lodge is
becoming dissatisfied with his place in
the Reed ranks and would very much
like to bring about state of things in
which he could form a new alliance.
Mr.. Lodge is intensely ambitious, the
secretaryship of state being the goal of
his ambition. and he chafes and frets
under the poor prospects for Reeds

The communication of the death sem
tences imposed on Hammond and the
others convicted Of an attempt to over
throw the Transvaal republic is both
magnanimous and polite. 1t shows that
that most essential attribute of civil
ization, mercy. can survive in repup-
lie resting under the shadow of African
savagery as well as in more enlishten-
ed parts of the world. And while 1t is
not fair to say that the act of clemency
was inspired by desire to win the good
will or avert the Interference of other
governments, which might feel interest
ed in the fate of the prisoners, the re-
suits will be the same as though the
Boer government had intended produc-
ing effects of that kind. 1t is very clear
from the case made out by the Boer
government that the accused were guilty
of the crime charged. Whether they
were justified in their attempt to over
throw the government will. of course,
be a matter of opinion. The clamor that
has gone up for the interference of the
United States in the case of Hammond
is, to say the least, unreasonable. The
utmost this government could do would
be to see that Hammond was accorded a
fair trial. This he seems to have had
The result he must abide by. When
American citizens undertake insurrec-
tionary or filibustering enterprises
abroad they must be prepared to take
the consequences. Neither this nor any
other government can protect its clti-
zens in the violations of the laws of for
eign countries,

UNEQUAL. Unjust and Ambiguous

Under the Raines law the restaurant
keeper whose bar is not in his dining
room may keep open and sell meals
on Sunday, while the restaurant keeper
whose bar is in his dining room must
close his doors and stop business en-
tirely.
The grocer who has a merchants IL
cense to furnish bottled wines and beers
must not open for the sale of vegeta-
reighbor who has no license is free to
open until 10 o'clock. That is to say,
the law Furnishes with loss of trade the
grocer who contributes heavy sum to
the revenues and gives immunity to his
rival who contributes nothing.
These are but samples of this laws
inequality. It's antiquities and it's in
consistencies and its contradictions are
so many and so perpleXing that a con-
ference was found to be necessary be-
tween the recorder and the district at
torneys of New York and Brooklyn to
find out approximately what the statute
means, for the guidance of the grand
jury. The courts are already beset
with questions of its Interpretation, as
we'll as with graVer questions of its
constitutionality.
Nothing can be worse for a commu-
nifty than unjust and unequal statutes.
and nothing more dangerous than am
biguous enactments. This law has both
faults in an extreme degree, and the
legislature is not even thinking of pass

evils. That body Is satisfied that its

THE HERALD'S GRACEFUL HERALD

The equestrian feats Of little Miss
Mamie Kessler have attracted no little
attention of late; and. indeed, though
only 10 years of age, she has wonderful
natural power and mastery over the
horse. The animal, which she may be
seen riding about town almost any day.
Will do her bidding with almost perfect
submission. A few days ago while rid
ing along Second street her horse be-
came somewhat unruly and was not dis
posed to do her bidding. Said a travel
ing man from Los Angeles. who hap
pened to be passing near by, IT was sur
prised to see her halt and dismount and
with her riding whip give the beautiful
large horse sevEe chastising that he
would not soon forget. Stroke after
stroke was rained upon him until 1t be-
came plainly apparent to all spectators
that he realized the superior power of
the young rider and respected her.
Having established her mastery over the
horse she drew the head OF the noble an
imal down and caressed 1t, thus making
her conquest complete. A large number
of spectators were attracted to the
scene, and all wondered how she would
mount again. Soon she drew the horses
head down till it's nose touched the
ground. and inclining her body against
it's neck grasped tightly its foretop. A.
signal the horse slowly raised his head
to its natural position and the rider slid
gracefully down his neck into the sad
die. At the request of several specta-
tors the performance was repeated. It
was one of the best exhibitions Of horse
training by child have ever seen,"
said the travelling man: "it shows what
commanding will and kindness will
do with an intelligent horse. The trou-
bic in most cases is that horses get the
punishment-often when they do not
deserve it-but never receive any caress-

EGYPT AND ITS ART
Lecture by DR.. Fletcher at the Art Con.
SerXatnrY

The Rev. ]. c. Fletcher, a noted con-
ncisseur in art and music, delivered a lee
rure at the school of art and design last
evening on Egypt and It's Arts to large
and interested audience.
The lecture was the fourth in the course
of SIX for 1896 given under the auspices of
the art association of Southern Califor-
mia. DR.. Fletcher was presented by Mr..
Malcolm Macleod with a cordial speech
to the effect that DR.. Fletcher scarcely
needed an Introduction to LOS Angeles
audience, or yet to any in C alifornia or
the United States.
DR.. Fletcher introduced his subject
with the remark that it would take three
or four nights to give a proper idea of
Egypt and its arts; the pyramid itself
would occupy an evenings description.
He would therefore merely touch on the
outer edges of his subject.
During very delightful hour the au-
dience, by means of vivid descriptions
and q series Of stereoDticon views. took
a journey through Egypt, visiting its
ancient cities, and viewing it's statues,
obelisks. temples and mosques, all of
which were explained by the distin-
guished guide.
Those characteristics in sculpture and
architecture influenced by the social life
natural history and religion of the ICgyp-
tlans were hunted out, and fac SMILES
of the hieroeiyphics on the Rosetta
stone, obelisks, etc, were deciphered by
the master hand of the artist and schol-
ar. Before and after the lecture the
guests enjoyed a visit to the art gallery
iii connection with the school, in which
may always be found a permanent ex-
hiblt of meritorious pictures. MANY
new works have recently been added to
the collection, among them two pic

ter OF the last century; three splendid

NEWS OF rnE MARLB0RoUdHs

The duke and duchess Of Marlbor-
ough evidently intend to take the posi-
tion in society to which their rank enti-
ties them and which by their wealth
they are able to maintain in all its glory.
The news about them comprises a
greater budget than that which con-
Germs any other Englishman, not except
ing the queen herself.
That which is most interesting Of all
follows:
Among the ladies' to be presented at
the forthcoming drawing-room is the
young duchess of Marlborough, whose
presentation dress will exceed In mag
nifioence anything seen at court for
many years. The silver and gold en-
broidery on the train alone is reported
to be worth a small fortune"
The second in interest of the published
items Is the news that his grace has ac-
cepted the presidency of the National
Orthopoedic hospital. and that, accom-
panied by the duchess, he will presently
preside at festival dinner at the Hotel
Metropole in London.
A great sensation has been created
among the extensive force Of Blenheim
palace retainers by an edict that all men
on the palace rolls must be clean shaven
1t seems there has never been any rule
regarding hirsute facial adornment
reign. consequently no order or system
or style has been observed in facial
fashions among the scores Of retainers
employed in the historic halls.
1t is so long since retainers have been
obliged to follow the custom Of ancient
English aristocrats of surrounding
themselves with smooth faces that
these isolated rural servants actually
fancy that the new rule is some strange
importation from the United States,
and they put all the blame on the new
duchess, whose glorious burst Of popu-
larity has thus become slightly dimmed.

said. We've had this trouble long

hands. I held out my right, not sus-
pecting treachery, and he grasped 1t
with his left hand and suddenly and un-
expectedly struck me in the eye and

out warrant for his arrest, which Nc
Coy evaded. He afterward surrendered
himself. Mrs. Mccoy was not any,

No Tariff at All

A banquet was given at the Hotel
st. George in Brooklyn, N. Y, April 18th.
by the Young Mems Democratic club
in honor of the anniversary of the birth
of Thomas Jefferson. Ex-Congressman
Tom l.. Johnson Of Ohio was the prin-
cipal speaker, and said in part:
MAKE no mistake. The principles Of
Jefferson are not dead. They are re-
viving in the hearts of the people; they
are coming to the front steadily and
swiftly in the quiet. but irresistible
growth of the single-tax idea. The
American people will not much longer
endure a paternalism which presumes
to tell them what they shall eat and
what they shall drink. how they shall
buy and how they shall sell; that has
no better cure for tramps than prisons,
and no better relief for poverty than
alms-a paternalism that is strengthen
ing standing navies and building forts
around our cities to insure the protec-,
ton of special privileges against the old
enemy they fear-the people.
"If government of the people, by the
people and for the people shall not
perish from the earth, the principles of
Jefferson must be asserted by party
that shall honestly trust them. and
that will move forward to the settle
ment of the tariff question, and the
currency question, and the land Ques-
ton. and the liquor question, and the
wage question. and the poverty ques-
ton, and any other question that may
come up on the basis of equal rights
to all and special privileges to none.
This party must come, if not this year.
then later. If not under the Democrat
ic name then under some other name.
and when it comes it will come with
power.
"It is time to raise the Democratic
standard for the only PRACTICABLE free
trade-no tariff at ALL This will make
the Democratic party single-tax
party The moment the Democratic
party frankly adopts this and fearless
ly declares it, it will have principle
and a future"

THE FORGED PETITIONS

The Herald of today reproduces from
the Express the statements of Mr.. H.
Y. Osborne and MIR. j. T. Carrere re-
garding the petitions with bogus and
forged signatures sent to Washington
in behalf of what is known as the two
harbor'' proposition. This publication
Is made by The Herald as matter of
fairness to Messrs. Osborne and Carrere,
upon whom the responsibility for the
sham petitions was placed by the par
ties making the affidavits published in
Yesterdays edition of The Herald. In
these af1idavits it is explicitly charged
that Mr.. Carrere personally employed
the parties to whom were entrusted the
work of securing or aftiXing the sigma
lures to the petitions, that his direc-
tions were to get names by any means
available and that he was cognizant of
the fraudulent work atlantis were en-
gagged in. 1t is charged that this man.
ufacturing of evidences of public senti-
n,ent was being carried on with the con-
sent and knowledge of Mr.. Osborne.
The latter gentleman's denial of any
participancy in the promotion of the
petitions Is certainly full and explicit,
rere. He places on Mr.. Carrere and the
latter accepts it, the sole responsibility
for the circulation of the petitions.
But while Mr.. Carrere admits author
izing the circulation of the petitions
and the hiring of men to do the circu-
lating, he denies most emphatically any
intention of procuring other than bona
fide signatures and claims that If any
others were affixed to the petitions
he, as we'll as the public, has been de-
ceived. Thus the affair apparently sim
mers down to matter of veracity be-
tween the afflants and Mr. Carrere. The
latter yesterday took an action which
will probably result in a determination
of this issue of veracity in a court of
Justice: he swore to a complaint charg-
ing one of the atlantis with obtaining
money under false pretenses in return
ing to him petitions loaded with ficti-
tious and bogus names when he had
been employed, as alleged, to procure
only genuine signatures.
Pending further developments in this
disagreeable, and to somebody, most
dissraceful affair, it is perhaps nothing
