The activity of the Spanish Government
IN revising and making more liberal lis
commercial treaties with Its leading
~ueighbors, may show that King AlfOnsO's
illness has caused him to think less about

gEeIfaTe Of his country, or it may indicate
that he IS ''Out of politics" for the pres
ent, and that his ministry are entering on
a more enlightened era.

TIE taIk about a fusion in New York of
Democrats and stalwarts to elect COnk-
IiuCtO the United States Senate, has made
~Eae Republicans of that State extremely
anxious. There seems to be a strong
probability that the proposition for
fusion will take some definite shape
at an early day. If it does, the

York the other day. A squad of 81 negroes
frOm Galveston landed IN that city en- route

viewers found out that they had not been
abused, bulldozed or cheated out of their
wages, and that they were going to
liberia simply because they thought they
oould better their condition by doing so.
Savannah may yet become a great coal
shipping port. The repeal of the import
duty On coal by the Brazilian Govern
ment will be almost sure to attract South
err miners to that market, and this is un-
dOubteIly the best point from which ship
neuts can be made. By taking hold of the
business properly Savannah might add
Immensely to its trade by exporting coal
SEd importing coffee. There is nc reason
WAY this city should not supply the South

rived at New York from Havre Thursday,
may well call attention to the theory that
