STRANGE Moved the Passenger.

There were not many seats vacant
sn the Indiana avenue car when the
lady with the diamonds and the daugh-
ter got on down town. The daughter
was demure and modest; the diamonds
were outspoken and obtrusive. The
lady, who very evidently owned both
was large and self-satisfied.
The man with the stubby mustache
sat reading a paper next to vacant
seat A lot of other people were read
ing other papers between him and
another vacant seat, which was on the

a few feet behind awaiting develop

stand it no longer. Leaning down a
trifie toward the man with the stubby
mustache she snapped.
Are you going to move or not?"
There was fmpudence and other
things in the tone and the speech and
the manner. The man with the stub

his paper until they looked full into
hers and then said:

! To meet these expenditures the United
States Government has to raise the nee

! amount IS raised by customs duties and
by the Internal Revenue tax upon whis-
ky, tobacco. beer, playing cards, oleo-
margarine. etc. For the year ending
June 80. 1896, there was collected S16O,-

the balance consisting of miscellaneous
receipts from sales of public lands, rev.

One can easily realize the immense
work of collecting this vast sum of
money. In addition, however, the
Treasury, through its accounting Off
GERS, has to supervise the expenditure Of
every dollar paid out for the support or
the Government, and to adjust the ac
counts of every officer spending the
public money. Not a dollar can be paid
into the Treasury of the United States
nor paid out without an order from the
Secretary addressed to the officer
known as the Treasurer of the United
States, directing him to receive the
money. which is technically termed
covering it into the Treasury" or to
pay out money to the person entitled, as
the case may be. This order of the Sec
retary is called a warrant" if it or
deTs the Treasurer to receive money in
the Treasury it is called a covering
warrant; if to pay out money it is called
either settlement warrant (when
the money is paid to some person enti-
tied to it of his own right, or an 'ac-
countable" warrant Gf the money is
paid to some officer of the Government
whose duty it is to expend it for the
purposes of the Government. This lat

As TO PRIMARY ELECTIONS.
THE ATTORNEY-GEN DIFF
FERS WITH JUDGE HUGHES.
He Says the New Primary Law
Does Not Take Effect
Until 1898.

Only week or so ago Judge Hughes
of the Superior Court of this county
decided that the City Trustees must
call the coming primary election under
the recent Act of the Legislature, and
they have proceeded so to do.
Now comes Attorney General Fitz-
gerald with an opinion that the law
does not so into operation before next
year. This opinion was rendered in re-
sponse to an inquiry from Mayor Hub
bard Of this city. A dispatch to the
Record Union" from San Francisco
last night says on this subject:
Attorney General w. F. Fitzgerald
has rendered a very important opinion
relative to the holding of primary cleo
tions this year. It is particularly i'm
pOrtant at the present time, in view of
the fact that this year there will be
several elections held in different places
in the State, and the question was
whether such elections and the selec-
ton of the Election Commissioners
should be under the old law or under
the law passed by the late Legislature.
The opinion has a particular bear
ing upon this city and Sacramento,
besides one or two other cities where
elections will be held this year.
THE Attorney Generals opinion was
given in response to an inquiry by
Mayor Hubbard of Sacramento. He
holds that the new Act is imperative
prior to 1898, and does not govern pri-
mary elections held before that time.
primary officers can only be selected in
a year in which a general election is

CANADA RETALIATES.
A Sweeping Alien Labor Clause.
Which Seriously !nterfereS
With Lumbermen.

A sweeping alien labor clause, which
was added to the Crown timber regula
tons by the Ontario cabinet on We'd
nesday, has caused some disquietude
among Michigan lumbermen.
The new regulation prohibits employ
ing any person not a resident of Can
ada in any capacity in numbering ope-
rations. Tie only exceptions made are
as to manager, head bookkeeper and
one estimator or explorer for each ope
ration. Disregard OF this will be pun
ished by suspension OF l"mhermeI 5
license and any timber cut by non-resi
dent employees shall be regarded as cut
in trespass.
Some of the Michigan lumbermen
who have been interviewed believe that
this regulation was provoked as retail
alton for United States tariff legislation
or the Corliss alien labor law. Many
Michigan men are employed in tie
operations of American lumbermcn in
Canadian territory.

from the glacial districts of northern
