YESTERDAY'S CEREMONIES.
Yesterday El Paso bad a revival of
patriotic fervor that will have a last
log effect. He must indeed be dull
who does not thrill with something
nobler than self at tbe sight of th
nation's flag slowly descending in the
glow of the setting sun to the sound of
our national anthem. And tbe sad
notes of tbe bugle as taps is sounded
while gray haired veterans and lusty
youths stand in silence with heads un
covered cause hearts to swell and
eyes to nil.
To remembsr the glorious deeds and
noble sacrifices of the fathers is to of-
fer tbe strongest assurance of tbe
feature greatness and steadfastness of
the republic. As the blood of martyrs
nourished the tree of liberty so will
strength and life prooeed from the sor-
row and death inseparable from war.
Perhaps the greatest value of Memorial
Day ia in reminding tbe young of tbe
way in whioh this republic haa been
purged through fire.
Yesterday's exercises were most in-
teresting in a way that perhaps did not
impress itself upon the average spec-
tator. The little parade was soon past
but the thought of the part that those
men had taken in making the history
of onr country made one pause. Among
the hundred marohing men were vete-
rans of the Mexican war of half a cen-
tury ago union and confederate vete-
rans of the civil war members of the
regular army who had been engaged in
the terrible Indian wars of our own
west young men and old who had seen
service during the late Spanish war
men who had been engaged in putting
down the Filipino insurrection and
some who while wearing the bias uni-
form of the Texas volunteer guard.had
never been in battle.
Under the flag the glorious emblem
of national unity and power these
sturdy soldiers marched with swinging
tread and honored both the dead and
the living.
THE CENSUS TOMORROW.
Tomorrow the vast work of taking
the decennial census of the United
States will be begun by an army of
fifty thousand enumerators. The
schedule has been greatly simplified
this year and the experience of the
census of 1890 haa resulted in a large
number of improvements.
This year there will be a total of
forty three questions in addition to
the agricultural schedule which con-
sists of thirty eight questions. All
the questions can be answered briefly
and concisely and a penalty is pre-
scribed for those citizens who neglect
or refuse to ana wer all the queatlona
truthfully. There need be no lear
that any Information thua glren will
be divulged by any employe of the
census bureau.
One thing perhaps should be made
clear tt all El Pasoane. Tbia cenaua
will give the official figure
for El Paso'a population for
the next ten years and upon this census
will depend El Paso's weight in con-
gress and legislature. The El Paso
census should Include all persona who
are not likely to be counted elsewhere.
Every member of an El Paso family
mustbe counted in thelocal census even
though the family be temporarily scat-
tered in various states or foreign coun-
tries. Travelers or students attending
B3bool elsewhere it they call El Paso
their home city must be counted here.
El Pasoans aojournlrg at Cloudcroft
the California resorts Colorado or
elsewhere should be included in our
laoal census. Health seekers and peo"
pie living at hotels and boarding
houses should be counted here unless
they are certain to be inoluded in the
census of ame other city.
Men and women who have no per-
manent home but are making El Paso
their temporary headquarters or abid-
ing place should be counted aa resi-
dents of El Paso. Men engaged in
mining or live stock operations in the
surrounding country whose interests
center in El Paso and who commonly
register from here should be counted
in El Paso's population. It is far bet-
ter both from a cation al and local
standpoint to err somewhat on the
side of excess rather than of deficiency.
Clark of Montana told the senate
in his lachrymose speech that eighty
per cent of the people of his atate re-
gardless of party affiliations favored
his claim to asenatorshlp and that the
action of the republicans who voted for
him in tbe legislature was "in response
to an almost unanimous publio senti-
ment." The Montana republican state
convention meeting the other day
adopted this resolution:
"We denounce in unmeasured terms
the betrayal of republican principles
by the eleven republicans who voted
for and assisted in the election of a
democrat In the person of W. A Clark
to the United States senate. We de-
nounce tbe statement recently made in
the United States senate that eighty
per cert of the people of Montana
favor a democratic senator.
The Montana republicans gave also
another proof of their opinion of
Clark by striking from the list of pro-
posed national delegates the name of
a man who was one of tbe republicans
who voted for Clark as senator. Mr.
Clrk will ascertain In due season that
he has a more exalted opinion of him
self than the country haa of him.
Chairman Emory Johnson of the
Isthmian oanal commission is on i
tour of the south with a view to scour
ing information aa to the probable
value of the Nloaragua canal to the
people of the United States. In a lei-
terln advance of arrival Chairman
Johnson wrote tbe Galveston people
that the purpose of tbe committee was
to investigate the commercial and in-
dustrial value the lnterooeanio canal
would possess and said: "Besides
consulting statistical and other sour-
ces of printed information we are ap-
pealing to business men of tbe country
and to consular and diplomatic repre-
sentatives abroad. We are also ask-
ing the large chambera-of oommeroe
ana commercial organizations of the
United States to co-operate with us
in the Investigation." It ia
to be hoped that Mr Johnson
will visit El Paso and get the views of
our business men on the projected
work.
Sugar is now being imported from
Egypt. On one shipment tbe sugar
magnates recently paid a duty of one
hundred and fifty thousand dollartf
The chief superiority of Egyptian
augar ia Its bigh and fine color even in
the raw stats. It ia useful for mixing
with other varieties the result beluga
better grade than can readily be manu-
faotured from the ordinary beet sugar
or tbe Cuban or East Indian product.
In the meantime our export trade ia
breaking all records. During the
month of April the United States ex-
ported 8118000000 of products to the
world at large eighteen millions more
than was ever exported in April be-
fore. So a little thing like the import
ation of sugar from Egypt cuts no
figure in the balance sheet.
One of the absurdities of Doctor
Blunt's quarantine is that wblla pas-1
senders are required to take oath that
they have not been in San Francisco
a id all San Franclsoo pas-
sengers or employes are turned
back from the borders of the slate
those passengers who have ridden all
the way from California in company
with the suspected passengers are per
mitted to enter the state. If there
were any real danger of infection it is
likely that the close contact inevitable
in railway traveling would serve to
spread the disease pretty effectually
during the thirty or forty hours jour-
ney. The biggest thing at tne Paris ex
position is tbe big wheel beside which
our Ferrla wheel would sick into in-
significance. The Ferrla wheel was
250 feet ia diameter and had thirty -six
cars eaoh seating forty passengers;
the Paris wheel ia 348 feet in diame
ter and seats 1600 passengers or 160
more than the Ferris. But Ferrla
gave Paris the idea. Paris ia not gen-
erally an imitator but in this instance
she oertainly ia.
It la pleasant to read that orphanj
ages and destitute orphans are allkB
non-existent in Australia. There every
waif ia taken to a receiving bouse and
kept till a country home is found for it"
Those Australians have advanced
farther in some ways than any nation
of the old world and the United States
could take some lessons from them.
IT now requires three columns of
the Manufacturers' Record to ten
about the new cotton and woollen
mills and the enlargement of existing
plants throughout the south and Tex
as is just beginning to figure in the
summary.
The work of covering Kansas City's
new federal building with gold leaf
says the Journal will be completed in
time to remind the delegates to Mr.
Bryan's convention that they have as-
sembled in a sound money city.
Ohio appears to be the mother of
bishops as well aa of presidents. Four
of the present board of Methodist bish-
ops began their ministerial careers in
the Ohio conference Merrill Crans-
ton MoCabe and Moore.
Or tbe 55000 voters in Havana only
about 23000 had registered for the
coming eleotlons at last reports. Some
lessons in popular government will be
needed in Cuba before a full vote may
be expeoted.
It haa been discovered that Wharton
Barker has a vein of humor. He aaya
that his party haa the advantage of
not having any past it baa no record
