NOVEL AND THRILLING
Evening Program Delights Big Crowd
at the State Fair.


The great grand stand was crowded
with people at the fair last evening to
witness the first evenings performances.
Wonderment grew as the show proceeded.
1t surpassed all expectations in novelty,
daring and excitement. There was good
music to fill the brief intervals between
events and to keep the crowd in happy
humor until the events began. There
was little delay even for a first night,
and after the events began they followed
in quick and bewildering succession.
There were running races on the half
mile track with neck -andneck finishes,
and chariot race in which the lady won,
although the crowd thought differently.
The balloon ascension made decided
hit. The sight of the balloon ascending
into the night. with searchlight show
ing the aeronaut against a background
Of utter darkness, filed the crowd with
delight and awe. Schreyer's flying dive
over the head Of his bicycle into the
tank was generously applauded: A trained
horse performed number of clever tricks.
and two clowns gave a performance
upon the high wire which was at once
amusing and thrilling.
The evening program concluded with
the grand spectacle and fireworks dis
play. War in China" and "A Night
in Peking." depicting the customs and
ceremonies of the sacred city, and fin
|
bassies by the Chinese: and the capture
Of the city by the allied troops and the
rescue o fthe Europeans.
The opening scene represents a grand
fete in honor Of the emperor, empress
dowager and imperial court. Soldiers are
seen making room for the emperor, and
forcing the crowds to give way. Then
come the mandarins Of various ranks, but
tons of gay colors denoting the station
Of the wearers. AS the procession slowly
approaches the palace the people are
deeply impressed with awe and rever-
ence.
| The emperor, the son Of heaven, who
has for awhile mingled with his people
now re-enters the palace. The festivities
| then commence. Shortly afterWard a pa
rade of the Chinese army and the boxers
takes place, the gay dress Of the soldiers
presenting a gorgeous spectacle. In quick
succession then follow the assassination
of the German ambassador by the Chi.
nese, and the flight from the palace O.
the emperor and his court: the arriva
| of the American, German, English, Rus
sian, French and Japanese commanders
the attack upon the forts Of Picking b,
the allies, and the great battle between
the Europeans and the Mongol1ans; tn
destruction of the Notifications, and tn
general assault ending In the rescue o
the Europeans. The spectacle closes witt
the grand review Of the allied troops II
the forbidden city, and a magnificent dis
play of fireworks follows.
The War in China will be repeate
nightly during the week.

But active supervision of the 100 and
more subordinates with stars has been
entrusted to Captain w. H. Hart, the
assistant superintendent. Captain Hart
was quartermaster and commissary OF
the Thirteenth Minnesota.

him. We notice. however, that now his
salary is 10 be twenty-five thousand dollars
per anuum. The ex.Secretary is not greedy.
He decliued--so il is said--a hundred thou
sand dollar salary then declined forty
thousand dollar salary, and now accepts one
at the figure above named. Very charac-
teristic of the ex. Secretary to decline such
munifcent emoluments and accept the beg
carly sum his friends now say he will re-
ceive. However, we possess our souls IN
patience. The doughty borrower of money
and purchaser Of bonds doubtless will get
something between S2S, ooo-and 81 ooo-not
much above the latter figures if he goes at
his full value. When he was at the head OF
the Treasury Department and was confer
ring favors upon the City National Bank he
was doubtless worth something, and we
have no doubt but he was we'll paid for
what he did. We see he has called on Sec
tary Shaw. Beware, Mr.. Secretary! Don't
be drawn into the net.
By the bye, as the former Secretary may
be still in town, we will ask him few
questions. and our columns are open for his
answers. We have asked some of them be-
fore, but he was probably too busy to
answer. He has some leisure on his hands
now.
How much, if any, rake off in the way of
commission did Vanderlip receive IN the
time clock transaction
Did he get any and if So did he divide
with his chief
Was Vanderlip 5 expenses abroad when he
crammed all European finance in his little
head in three short months paid by the
Government on the ex-Secretary's au-
thoritY?
How much, if any, did Vauderlip and the
ex-Secretary receive in the Custom House
sale2 It is said that Vauderlip played real
estate broker in that transaction, and real
estate brokers don't as a rule work for
nothing.
Did the ex-Secretary and Vanderlip, OF
either of them, make a little dot on the
bond issue?
We could ask more questions, but for the
time we forbear. The above interrogations
are perfectly respectful and the many
salaried ex-Secretary will not be undigni-
fed should he answer US.
Our columns are open. Mr.. Gage, let us
hear from you.

taxing power, but men are made to believe
that high taxation is the panacea for an
ills. One excuse is it makes wages better.
How many are benefited it is not necessary
to estimate irst now, but if goods can be
sold cheaper in England than they are sold
in America, it is plain that wages are NOT at
all considered. The wage question is a pre-
tence.
However notwithstanding special priyi-
leges conferred, il seems not to be enough.
The money is not taken from the people IS
pockets fast enough The monopolies are
not satisfied and they must give out more
of their earnings to ship subsidies. The
pretense is to build up merchant marine.
If to build up merchant marine, and that is
the object, why not let merchants buy free
ships? That is not the object it is to take
more money from the people, make more
expenditures as an apology for a continu-
ance of high tariff
Senator Perkins in his speech says if the
bill-the subsidy bill-becomes a law the
results will be wonderful It fairly takes
ones breath away to see what he says will
be accomplished. There will-says the SEN
ator--be ship yards from Maine all down
the Atlantic coast and all along the Pacific
coast where the United States have terri
tory, even reaching up to Alaska. Indeed,
if the bill becomes a law-and it will--the
people in coast cities will do nothing else
but build ships There will be nothing else
for them to do. The whole population Of
the United States will drop everything else
and go to shipbuilding In less than two
years, according TO the Senator's roseate
view, there will be shipyards enough to
build enough ships to do the work Of CEN
turies. The law of supply will no longer be
a factor. The peoples money will be paid
out to pet lines, and 10, as by magic tall
masts arise from every fishing hamlet in the
land where new plants are to be located and
naught will be seen on any of the oceans
but the steam puffs of subsidized lines, not
the white wings of the subsidized ships. A
most beautiful picture.
But another thought comes along with this
picture Where will the people get tile
money to pay all the billsy Subsidy costs
money. Shipyards cost money. Ships cost
money, and who is to pay it ALL and when
will they who pay get their money back and
who will pay itl Somebody will make
money, it is true But we very much doubt
that they who pay will receive any substan-
tial benefit. Indeed we do not believe they
will. 1t is simply taking money out Of the
pockets Of one class of people-the helpless
ciass-aud puttino n the Dockets of another
That is all there is in it.
To say that shipbuilding will result from
subsidy is absurd. There are shipyards
now, plenty of them, and lower the tariff so
that the natural law of supply and demand
can come into play the people at large will
be prosperous, and special classes will get
all they deserve.

Congress who must needs meet their con-
stiments with their fingers in their mouths
may have some difficulty in explaining their
supineuess.
Is after all undue expedition to be COM
mended?
The utter absurdity of the plea that there
is not time enough to allow debate is shown
from the fact that many days since the
present session began the flag has not been
raised on the south end of the Capitol. And
still more absurd is the fact that speech
after speech has been made upon sundry
subjects and none of them on the legislation
at the time pending law TO be enacted
is not debatable according to the Commit.
mittee OH Rules but days after it has been
voted upon orators get rid of their essays
which were prepared when the particular
subject upon which they were then talking
was under consideration. Their talk was
not at all to the point. The repeal Of war
taxes, the Philippine bill aud many Others
were aired long after the bills were ia the
committees Of thesSenate.
The tariff is to be entirely ignored at this
session. Prosperity it is said must not be
touched, hence inequalities must continue
TO exist OF these inequalities more will
be said. One thing, however, may be said
with propriety and with truth; that subsidy
billsand extravagant appropriations must be
the rule so as to continue the oppression Of
the people. We have seen men drunk with
power before now, and we have seen them
suddenly made sober.
Cuban reciprocity which is but another
name for free trade with Cuba is meeting
with rough usage. It would meet with
speedy action but for the tariff barons.
Once an entering wedge is driven the whole
structure win fall, and that is what is agi-
tating the breasts of those who profit by high
taxation. 1t is amusing, or would be if it
we not such a serious matter, to see how
the Speaker aud his friends who are foster
ing and protecting the steel trust pleading
with the beet sugar men TO relent little
and allow reciprocity The end is not yet
Gentlemen, who iatter themselves that the
tariff will remain untouched, and will al
ways remain burden on the people may
as well get ready for the coming storm If
the present Congress won't revise another
will.

Republican party would be in hopeless
minority To the negro vote in the northern
states that party is indebted for its lease of
power. But instead Of northern negro Con-
gressmen. Senators and Cabinet ficers the
Republican party rewards its black voters
with honored positions in the broom ard
spitoon cleaners brigade along with their
white veteran soldier c. A. R) fellow
menials
Conscious of the glaring inconsistency Of
their promises and acts towards the negro
and the old soldier alike. they now propose
to hedge or hide their shortcomings in
bloody shirt campaign against Southern
representation and Southern election laws.
The Crumpacker resolution which the
Republican managers of the House have
approved proposes to attempt new appor-
iionment Of Southern representation in de-
hance OF the explicit declaration of the
Constitution that the actual enumeration
for apporionment purposes shall be made
every ten years. In 1900 this apportion-
ment was made and the act for the same
passed by the last Congress Therefore no
legal action can be taken by Congress until
the next census in 1910 Wherefore then
this investigation into Southern election
methods2
1t is too plain aud obvious an attempt to
revive the bloody shirt and again spring
that old and reliable issue to rally the veteran
and negro alike to the standard Of Marcus
Alouzo Hanna-the Wall Street candidate
for President in 1904
If the provisions Of the constitutions Of
any Southern state are unconstitutional as
to suffrage clauses the Supreme Court of the
United States is the proper tribunal to set
tie the question, and not the partisan ma
iority Of any Congress.
The Negros with a capital NJ are no fools
and cannot be hoodwinked by this at
tempted revival of sectionalism When
the negros were found to be in the majority
in the District of Columbia, THE white men
of the District, irrespective of party, Sc
cured their disfranchisement, and the white
minority has since then ruled by the aid of
Congress and President. And the District
of Columbia is not a Southern State, but is
peopled principally by Northern white
men. The negro realizes that there is not a
Northern state which would permit him to
rule it, no matter how numerically superior
he mightbe 10 til white voter. Even as it
is, his white Republican Northe ru friends
indebted to him for the Offices they hold,
rarely, if ever recognize him with any
higher position than petty clerkship or
menial and i'll paid laborious position as
ianitor, watchman OF roustabout.
The average negro understands that
South as we'll as North the white man will
rule and administer the government. This
order of natural supremacy cannot be in
verted without bloody revolution. And
the Republican party is aware of this fact
Hence the crumpacker resolution is party
buncombe, for it is not to be supposed that
even Republican spoilsmen want another
Civil War, to be fought on the issue Of
white or black supremacy!
For that would be the end of the Repub.
lcan party and the sepulchre of the Ameri-
can negro.
