IGNORANT OR DISHONEST.

Chairman Cannon's call for halt in
 congressional expenditure because the
 revenues of the government are being 1 exceeded to a dangerous extent has given some of the democratic journals
 a text for attacks on the Dingley tariff which they denounce anew as a failure
 as a revenue producer. Some of these papers are ignorant, but those that
 know the state of our fiscal affairs are
 dishonest, because they are bearing false witness. Treasury statistics prove that in time of peace the Dingley act would have provided the revenues necessary for the expenses of the gov ernment and thus have vindicated the claims of it's framers. 1t also has been even more of a success in reviving the industries of the nation and in expand ing it's foreign commerce to propor- tions never dreamed of before. The Dingley tariff is the most successful act of that nature ever enacted. It was framed for ordinary. not extraordinary times. It's schedules were purposely drawn so that there should be little if any surplus over the needed rev enues in times Of peace, and there was at the time no thought Of a war. Yet because the law will not produce money to pay at least in part for a costly international fight, democratic journals seek to create the impression that it is failure. Those who keep posted on our fiscal affairs know better. And those who do not follow the finan- cial statements of the national treas ury know it is not a failure as pro tective and employment-produ act, for work is plenty and the cupboards are full, condition of things just the reverse of that which has followed the enactment of every democratic tariff for half century.

 Tn winter-or rather during the dry season. of November, December, Jan uary and February-the upper limit of the mercury is about 80 degrees on the

 There is 6 greater range in tempera
 tuTe between day and night at this sea- son than in summer the mercury sometimes falling during darkness to 65 degrees on the coast, and ten de- grees lower in the highest attitudes. Sixty-five degrees means really cold weather to the Porto Rican, and the American who has lived on the island for few months does not disdain to envelop his linen-clad person in light oYercOat.
 The difference between the temper ature in open sun light and dense shade is so marked that it is actually dangerous to seek shelter from the sun when overheated, in the shade of tree or jungle Pneumonia is com monly produced in this way and many of the pulmonary complaints arising in the island may be traced to injudicious cooling off beneath umbrageOuS natu- ral arbors. A bit of superstition exists in the minds of the untutored natives to the effect that certain large trees which form bowers of shade eXhale poisonous, noxious vapors, and that those who unwittingly or foolishly rest beneath them die with frightful pains in the chest and back, the true expla- nation being, of course, that acute con gestion is superinduced. - Harper's W eekly.

It is said that in spite of the general belief that American capital would seek early investment in Cuba and Porto Rico, so far very few appliea- tjons have been filed for grants, fran chises or concessions for the coastruc- tlon of public works of various kinds.

TO CONTROL FRUIT
TRANSPORTATION
Growers to Meet at the
Capital.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, May 15.-There will
be meeting at the State Capitol to-
morrow afternoon of the tranSporta-
ton committee of the Fruit Growers
convention recently held at Fresno, of
which r. D. Stephens, the Sacramento
orchardist and shipper, is chairman.
The meeting is fraught with great in
terest to the fruit growers of the State,
since it's purpose is to take the initial
steps toward an organization to wrest
the business of shipping fruit from the
combine that controls it and to placing
it in the hands of the shippers them
selves.
r. d. Stephens is the father of the
movement and he is enthusiastic in his
claims Tonight he declared to The
Call correspondent that if the shipping
of the fruit was confined to the ship
pers they would be able to place their
products in the Eastern markets at
one-half the present cost and still make
a good profit on the transportation
charges Mr.. Stephens declared the
proposed organization would not be OPP
pressive to any of the members Or
chardists, he said, did not grumble at
nor their fire and life insurance assess
ments, in order to better protect their
property while they were alive and to
conserve it for their families after their
death. Mr.. Stephens said that If the
growers succeeded in forming the con-
templated organization they would be
masters of the situation. AS it is now,
the moment an individual shipper sends
a consignment to certain point TO an
independent agent the two refrigerator
companies divert their consignments to
that point, Cutting the market which
the individual grower had hoped to en-
ter and effectually dispelling his dream
of realizing something on his crop.
Under the contemplated system of CO.
operative transportation the shippers
will be able to send their fruit to mar
kets where they know 1T will meet
with ready sales Beside, they will have
a hold on the various railroad lines,
since they will be able to say upon
which lines they prefer to send their
cars. Since the business of carrying
these refrigerator cars is profitable to
the railroad lines the growers will have
no difficulty in obtaining fair treatment
and the most favorable transportation
rates.
Mr.. Stephens said tonight that to-
morrow afternoons meeting would be
in every sense public, and that not Only
were the orchardists urged to be pres
ent, but the representatives of the re-
frigerator companies and other ship
pers also, to the end that there might

RIOT OF CUBANS
AT CIENFUEGOS

Clara, May Is, s p. m.-About o'clock
this afternoon a gang of Cuban dock
laborers called upon Captain Barker, cap
tain of the port, and made a demand for
back pay. AS they were violent, Captain
Barker drew his revolver. The laborers
retired, but returned soon after with fifty
others and made a similar demand, us
ing obscene and profane language, insult
ing Captain Barker and offering threats.
The, Cuban police were ordered to ar
rest the malcontens. and a general street
fight followed, in which one laborer was
killed and several persons were wounded
including three members of the police
force.
AS the Cuban populace became very in
sulting and threatened revenge an out
break was expected, and the Second
United States Infantry Regiment was
ordered into the city The troops are

The Cubans are well armed, and about
an hour ago firing was heard in Declute

this was probably only harmless mis-
