THREE CARNIVAL COLoRs
Cardinal, Blue and Gold Are Formally
Adopted to Brighten the Coming
Festival.

Blue, gold and cardinal were last night
formally adopted as the colors for the car
nlval of the Golden Gate. Distinguishing
designs for the various committees were
also adopted. Each design will be placed
upon a strip OF ribbon representing the
three colors. The executive committee
will be represented by five-pointed star;
golden for the chairman and silver for the
other members of the committee. Cornu-
copias of gold and silver will distinguish
the finance committee and crossed

naval display, flaming torch for the COM
mittee on illumination ana decoration,
crossed flags for tribunes and grand stands,
harp for committee on music, scale of
justice for committee on awards of prizes,
clasped hands for committee on invita-
ton and reception; a bear will distinguish
the committee for California dav, crossed
pens the committee on literary exercises
and the strong arm athletic sports.
The chairman of these subcommittee
will wear design representing his COM
mittee, supported by small gold star.
A small silver star underneath the design
will distinguish whether the member is
also a member of the executive committee.
Special badges for the press will be de-
signed by the corresponding secretary,
and will be divided into two classes-one
class for those actually engaged in the
work of the carnival and the other for Wis.,

pared during the coming week and placed

size of quarter OF a dollar.
The question of regalia was also dis
cussed. Marshals of divisions will wear
sashes of blue, gold and cardinal, and aids
will wear a sash of one color. No less
than three aids will be appointed to each
division.
W. D. Harper, manager of the En-
porium, stated that that building will be
illuminated in the carnival colors from
top 10 bottom.

grand ball will be given at the Mechanics

CLEVELAND.

Ex-senator Edmu1ds Of Vermont.
in a recent interview in reference to
Secretary Olney's definition of Execu-
tive and Congressional powers, had
this to say:
To recognize as a separate and in
dependent State anything 40 myth
cal as the Republic of Cuba would
put this country in a very undesir-
able position, and one in which no
civilized nation would like to be
placed. The Republic of Cuba has no
stability, no aunotomy, no organiza-
ton, no capital. We may pity the
condition of the people and deplore
the atrocities which are being COM
nitted on the island, but to go to the
length proposed is something which
no self-respecting nation could do.
Should the President veto the resolu-
ton and it be passed over the veto, ii
would be a declaration Of Congress,
which, perhaps, would have the same
effect as if the President had signed it
if he, as the Executive, should deem
it had the lawful effect. But if the
President refused to carry out the in.
structions of Congress, there would
be nothing left for Congress to do but
to either submit or impeach MIN fol
high crime and misdemeanor in re.
fusing to obey what they regard as G
valid law. But I have no idea :ha'
the resolution will pass, &C that ques'
ton is harry likely to arise.

Unable to See it.

The News tries to make it appear
that the failure of the Illinois Nation
al Bank was not due to silver de-
probation, but to loaning two and a
half million dollars to a railroad.
The managers of the bank, like the
editor OF the News, were unable to
realize that the scarcity OF money af-
fected the people through whose ter
ritory the railroad passed.
Tue farmers did not ship wheat
because it brought SO little. People
out of employment do not patronize
railroads, and all industries are par
alyzed by reason of silvers deprecia-
ton, and a railroad most of all, be-
cause it can only do business when al
other business prospers. A banker
who cannot see as pain a thing as
that deserves to fail in business. He
should get out Of the banking bust
ness as soon as possible and start &
gold bug newspaper in Nevada.
