OAKLAND. April 19.-Oakland, the
largest suburb of San Francisco, tonight
housed and fed probably $1,000 refugees of
the fire-stricken city across the bay. All
day this stream of humanity has poured
from the Ferries, everyone carrying some
article Of baggage saved from the con-.
hagration. Thousands of Chinese, men,
women and children, all carrying luggage
to the limit of the strength and fleeing
from their quarters that have long been
one of the show places for San Francisco
visitors, mingled with the crowds and
poured into the limited Chinese section of
Oakland.
Thousands besieged the restaurants, and
soldiers were stationed at the doors to keep
them in line and to allow only as many
TO pass who could find standing room at
the counters. During the greater part of
the day there has been a throng of people
lounging around the Seventh street depot
Many are residents of Oakland who have
no work to do and are simply killing time
Some Of them are refugees from San Fran
cisco who have no place to go and are

liver to the several Parish Committees

One AZ The best features Of the new
law Is, That 1t provides for all priina-
ries to come on sad 1e date; that is, all
State and Parish primaries are to be
held at the same time. This obyiates
the troublesome feature OF frequent
elections, and allows the people to go
to the polls and vote once for all.
: Another important feature is the pay
ment of the expenses of the primaries.
Heretofore 1t was paid by the candi-
dates. Now the Commissioners, Clerks
and Returning Officers will be paid by
the State and Parish.
As q whole it is no doubt good law,
