Creole Girls Charming English.

"The Creole gentlewoman will
charm your ear with an inimit-
able accent, but her enuncistion
will be clear and fine. Her Eng
lish, acquired at the convent Of
the Ursuline nuns, will have a cer-
tain stilted form and a bookish
flavor, which you will quickly con-
fess to be an added charm when
You get it from her own pretty
lips, and in the sonorous voice OF
the south. And it will have, too,
the flavor of delicacy and refine
ment. Even though she may oc.
casionally give you literal trans
lation of a French idiom, she will
give 1t to you with nsivete at
once so piquant and so dignified,
and so fine setting of finished
English, that you, If you are q
man, will be ready to crawl at her
feet. "-Ladies' Home Journal.

NOT WELL ADVERTISED.

From a well known man who az

western part of the state, it is learn
ed that the advertising of the ap-
preaching Alamo Battle has been
somehow wofully neglected in those
sections, although he is in close touch
with the railroad passenger men, he
did not know a word of the coming
carnival until it was told him by a
Light reporter. He was surprised
and said that if the people in North
and East Texas and Louisiana know
Of the grand event they would flock

MIGHT BE ENLARGED.

Senator Plat has introduced bill that,
judging from the condensed account of it
sent by telegraph, seems good so far as it
goes. 1t declares the transmission of news
by any means between States concerning
bets on any event to be a misdemeanor.
The bill might well be amended by adding
a clause prohibiting the importation into
this country of news concerning lottery
drawings held abroad. This is perfectly
within the scope Of Congressional action,
and it would put stop to one of the
greatest evils under which our people
suffer.
Lotteries are outlawed in the United
States, and those which formerly dourished
here have been driven to the protection of
foreign countries having a moral percep-
ton different from ours. Yet they are
working almost as serious harm as when
they fourished on our territory. They
are enabled to do this by the fact that
newspapers not governed by the highest
sense of duty and patriotism publish the
list of drawings at these lotteries. giving
flaming prominence to the prizes alleged
to have been won by American ticket
holders. This serves as lure which the
avaricious and ignorant are unable to
resist, and the consequence is heavy
drain on the money of the people, coming
mostly from those least able to bear it.
These concerns are barefaced swindles,
far worse than when they were conducted
in this country. Congress has the power
to prohibit the introduction into the
United States of news concerning them,
just as it has the power to prohibit the
intro duction of contagious diseases or the
importation of paupers. Already there is
an admirable statute prohibiting the
transmission of lottery matter through the
mails. The scheme of prohibition would
be complete if the introduction of news
concerning foreign lotteries was prohib-
tied. The law could recognize the publ
cation of drawing-lists as prima facie evil
dence of such introduction, and include
publication as part of the offense, Such
a law as this would save hundreds of thou
sands of dollars annually to California,
some of whose leading newspapers publish
monthly famboyant advertisements of
these swindling concerns.

BIG GUNS THAT ARE USELESS

The work Of dismantling the old batteries at
the military posts around San Francisco is
progressing slowly. AS the big guns are taken
from the rotten old carriages they are piled
together to wait for purchasers, as they have
been ordered "sold for old metal
But SO far purchasers have not materialized,
and the outlook is that they will not-at least
until gun-metal becomes more valuable than
al present. AS things are it is impossible to
give the old cannons away. Nobody wants
them, because the work of getting them to a
blast-furnace would cost more than the goods
they could be manufactured into would sell
for. So the chances are they will remain
where they are until the Government starts a
gun plant of its own on the Pacific Coast.
These guns are really as good as when they
were put on top of the hills away back in 1868.
They can shoot as well as they ever could, but
the trouble is they! cannot do as much

INSTRUCT NOT.
Wheatland Fonr Cnrnnra

The theory OF representative government
does not imply that the peoples representa-
tives must be instructed to vote thus and so on
propositions as they arise; in other words that
they are to be deprived of the use of their
brains and their Judgment in the best interest
OF the people they represent and directed to
vote and talk like automatic machines. rep
resentative in the legislative halls or in politi-
cal conventions should be clothed first of all
with discretionary powers and be at full lib
erty to use his voice and vote as seems best at
all times and occasions. Anything short of
this is abortive of true representative func-
ton, and also belittles the character and care
fulness of the representative. 1t is well enough
and in fact important for the people in dele
eating assemblies to go on record as to their
desires concerning public issues, and the
record should show those desires in unmistak-
able language. Delegates chosen from those
assemblies must in honor note the record and
conduct themselves accordingly, but they
should be free to carry out the will of the as
sembly choosing them in such way as to
come nearest accom- plishing the purpose.
Much as any may dislike to say it, all must
admit that our Government in its legislative
ludlclal ana party makeup is Government
brought into being by compromises. Factions
fight tor this and for that, and they could
never agree except upon compromise basis
NOW suppose we send delegates to st. Louis
and Chicago with unalterable instructions
about silver. The result would. undoubtedly
be to tie their hands and thus leave California
practically unrepresented. But suppose we
SEND those delegates uninstructed, or rather to
according to the memorials of the respective
delegating convention? What then? Cali
fornla will take first rank among the States
ana ana our delegates become power from the
hrst. An honest delegate needs no command
Ing 1nstruc tions, and no other kind of dele
gates should be chosen.
