Gay Times Under Tammany.

The consumption of lobster and
champagne in New York is gagged

simple necessities of life are not
sold in great quantities, and when
Tainmany is in power they at once
jump back into popularity. Thus,

WORLDS FAIR OPENING
Travelling Nan Says 1t Vas Fiasco.
Complaint Of Smoking Restrictions.

Mexican Herald.
A travelling man who recently
returned from St. Louis, where he
went to attend the opening of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition,
gives a vastly different version of
the opening from that which was
published in The papers of the world.
He SAYS that it was a complete
fasco in so far as the completion of
the buildings was concerned and
their readiness to be opened to the
gaze of the public as exhibitions of
the builders art.
Not half of the buildings were
completed, he stated: of course
this statement could not be given
out broadcast to the country
through the press. so the reports
were made as roseate as possible.
In my opinion the opening was a
fasco and did not begin to COM
pare with that of some other world
fairs that have attended. There
is no doubt whatever, that the ex-
hibits are very superior. In point
of size, think the buildings are
most wonderful. They are beauti-
full as to their architecture, but
they were not finished sufficiently
to make the opening the success
that every one hoped for.
There is one thing about the
management of the worlds fair
that l should think deserves critic
Ism and I hope he will remedied.
That is, they have positively pro-
hibited smoking on the grounds.
One cannot walk along the walks
on the outside of the buildings and
enjoy his cigar, nor can have a
social smoke any where on the
grounds Of the exposition. One
can smoke in the cafes, but in or
der to do that one must perforce
purchase something TO eat as well,
or to drink, and the average smok-
er does not always want to do that.
Sunday opening has been pro-
hibited also, and that will work to
the disadvantage of the exposition,
for it will keep away the laboring
classes who cannot leave their work
to attend on week day.
These things should be REM
edied in order that the exposition
may be entirely successful. 1t
would be all right if the manage
mer1t placed some restrictions upon
in the buildings, for that
would bea reasonable preventive
against confagrations, but it is ut
terly nonsensieal to forbid any
on the grounds. oatside

perience has demonstrated that this
is as much as those liable for it have
ability TO pay.
We have already called attention
to the fact that 34,9S0 out of the
273,83S polls listed for the year 1908,
were insolvent. We think it proper
to call the attention of the General
Assembly to the fact that the statutes
authorizing couny commissioners to

universally, authorize the excess 10
be applied to other purposes than of
education and the support of the poor,
and that the appropriation of the
poll tax seems to be in conflict with
Art. V, Sec. 2, of the Constitution,
which provides: THE proceeds of
the State and county capitation tax
shall be applied to the purposes of
education and the support of the poor,
but in no one year shall more than
twenty-five per cent, thereof be APP
propriated to the latter purpose" If
three -fourths of the whole poll tax
levied for State and county purposes
had been applied to education, there
might not have been the necessity for
appropriating 100000 for the pur-
pose of making four months terms in
school districts in the State.
Third. That laws authorizing cities
and towns to levy poll tax for munci-
PAL purposes be repealed. AS pointed
out in our first annual report the
State and county municipal poll tax
levy in some of the cities and towns in
the State amounts to more than six
dollars per head. No parallel can be
found for it in any State III the Union.
The tax was levied under the misap-
prehension that the Constitution re-
quired the same equation and proper
ton 10 be observed in levying taxes
for municipal purposes as was re-
quired TO be observed in levyihg taxes
for State and county purposes. We
called attention in our first report to
the fact that this was a misapprehen-
sion, and cited Jones against Commits
