The dominies on the platform were Hinton,

A DEMAND on NEXICO,

Ever since the Mexican war the United
States has been peIplexed by the constant
troubles along the banks of the Rio Grande.
From Brownsville to Laredo the Mexican
banditti have continued almost without in.
terruption q wholesale robbery of our citI-
zens. But at last the Americans have de
termned to check this system Of pluDder,
Qy peaceful means If possible, il not, then
by fOrcible measures. AT the last Cabinet
meeting it was decided unanimously that
the Government of the United States will
no longer tolerate these outrages, which
are not only countenanced but protected by
the Mexican authorities Accordingly, in
structions have been sent TO the American
Minister directing him 10 inform the DIAz
Government that If it does not axe prompt
measures to suppress these outrages and
punish these thieviug banditti the Ameri'
can authorities will take charge of them
and dispose Of the matter as It may seem

A Step Toward Cuban Recognition. Perhaps.

A Step Toward Cuban Recognition, Perhaps.
The appointment OF Hon. JouS A. KAssoN
as Minister to Spin is regarded by the friends
II Cuban Independence as step In the dircc-
lion OF the recognition Of the devoted band
who have so loug dehcd the armies Of Spain.
Whether It is a step to recognition or not, the
appointment certainly looks as though the
Government intended TO adopt a decided
policy In regard to Spain and Cuba, for Mr..
KhssoS Is known TO be warmly In sympathy
with the Cuban patriots. In 1870 he was a
member of the Iowa Legislature, and was
chairman Of the committee on Federal rcla-
lions. His sentiments were expressed in a
series OF resolutions which he then offered,
and which were almost unanimously adopted
These resolutions declared that the people
OF Iowa
regard with deep interest and profound sym.
pathy the struggles OF the people Of Cuba to
realize their independence from European domi-
nation. That II has become historically
part OF the law of nations, applicable to the
Se, s, s 81 ,ho american 10 ,ne older
founded by colonization, has n population fitted
for sclfgoyernment, with It's chief interests an.
taKUnistic to q longer condition Of dependence on
European rule, and Its people with reasonable
uranimity desire and insist on the adoption Of
Independent American institutions, such a State
tablish a government with American principles,
founded on the voluntary action of its own people;
that after the lapse OF a reasonable time, show
ing the persistent determination OF such people
'or independence of European control, and their
ability 10 maintain their civil organization
such period Of trial. It is the right and duty OF
the United states Government to recng nize them
as belligerents within the pale OF international
law, and to maintain q perfect neutrality between
the contendinR parties; and this without oiIense
to the foreign government, which can md In
such action only q recognition OF the right on
which GU: own and all other Independent Ameri-
can governments are founded"
These resolutions, which had no unce rtan
sound, closed with a request to the Senators
and Representatives in Congress from Iowa
to maintain the principle therein enunciated.
As Mr.. KAssoN is a man of ST rong and earnest
convictions, the presumption is that his views
have not changed since 1870. We are well
aware that q member of a State Legislature
may give expression 20 views which would
not be exactly diplomatic in foreign minis
ter. Nevertheless, II is a gain to have at
Madrid a man of such pronounced opinions,
so that, II the proper time came, he would be
both able aud willing to render signal and
substantial aid to the struggling Cubaus. We
have not been represented at the Spanish
Court by such m"l In the past, and, come.
quently, they did not grasp the opportunities
that were presented to render efficient service
to our Cuban neighbors.

They talk Of having baby show in Wash
ington. This is enterprise, but will II sue
coed: The Western cities have tried II and
all of them failed but Chicago, and Chicago
Just made both ends meet, still not without
causing q great deal of dissatisfaction among
the ladies. The Indianapolis baby show was
an entire failure, so was that recently held in
Cincinnati. The trouble seemed to be In both
these cities that the ladies became indignan
and positively refused to place the goods on
exhibition, on the ground that the show was
given on too short notice. A baby TO show OIL
well must be nicely developed and tastefully
dressed. The indianapolis notice gave the
mothers only four weeks to meet the emer.
gency H.. No wonder they refused TO con-
tribute to the success of the infant enterprise.
Every mother takes a natural pride in the dis
play of her child. 1t is quite reasonable,
therefore, that they should demand ample
time to perfect arrangements, and should a
baby show be decided upon In Washington we
hope those who are to participate will have no
reason to complain of the shortness of the no
tice to be given.

As THE PRESIDENT intended to visit the
South Immediately after the extra session,
which was expected to be held 10 June, the
postponement will probably nccessitate his
making the visit before Congress couvenes.
He will accept the invitations offered him by
the cities of Richmond and Petersburg, and
pay the visit during the summer.
THE appropriations for the fiscal year are
short In more than one department Of the
Government. The appropriation for the eX-
