The Opinion ia GenaraI


NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-The special com-
inlttee OF the chamber of commerce re-
ports after investigation among all
members of the chamber, that it finds
mat the resolution adverse to the Span
lsh treaty, passed at the meeting on
January 8, satisfactory to large major
Ivy OF representatives of all branches of
trade and manufacturers w y have
been called upon soT tho
opinion. The e. % ' ior an

IN !l = a dcG-the latter specially, is
[. SaPathy with our people and insti-
buttons, and from her position might be
of much value in giving coaling sta
ton in case OF war. The Treaties, with
these countries, would take but little
from our revenue, open up
avenues of trade at reasonable
cost and deserve favorable considera-
ton. On the other hand, Cuba and Porto
Rico are dependencies of Spain, under
Spanish rule of the most arbitrary and
oppressive character. She has taxed
them until they are bankrupt, and now
she seeks at our expense to
make them further able to swell
her revenue. In helping European
power to continue its oppressive system
of government over the only two islands
on the American waters that remain
under its control, are we going to
permanently extend American influ-
ence? Spain has uniformly treated
| American interests arbitrarily and un-
| justly. American ships have been
seized and contiscated without just
cause. A constant series of fines has
been imposed upon our vessels, and
strange TO say the advocates of this
treaty advance as one OF their argu-
ments that outrages of this kind shall
cease as matter OF favor, when we
long since should have demanded it as
a matter of right"
The committee gives a number
of reasons why the treaty should not be
ratified, saying this Is not a reciprocity
treaty; that IL would not benefit our
manufacturers to any great extent. Ii
would destroy our sugar producing in
terests and derange our important Amer

COMMITTEES IN DELIBERATE
BODIES.

The past few years have developed
the fact that the machinery through
which legislation is to be perfected is
comprised Of just one word-committee
Good working committees work up leg
islative matter and after formulating
the ideas, present them in enactment
form TO the body, whose vote either
brushes or authenticates their action. In
the national congress the report Of a
committee Is but seldom disturbed,
whilst failure TO report iavorably is In
evitable death. In consequence Of this
accepted state of affairs, the presiding
officer has cast upon him most onorous
responsibility, and his success in the Sc
lection of good men is the measure and
standard OF the appreciation in which
he Is held by the public for whose veal
or woe the laws are created, amended
or repealed.

RADlCALlSM IN EUROPE

Not only is the continent of Europf
affected with the most advanced ideas NJ
republicanism and democracy. but
England is being agitated to her yery
centre by liberal theories. In Russia
nihilism is but the outcropping, in an
extrayagant fashion, of the reseptful
masses. Germany is boiling over with
socialistic agitation, and Italy itself,
although governed by monarch of
most popular address, is seriously dis.
cussing the question OF representative
republican government.
But what ails old England in her con.
servative grandeur? In that isle of fop
and green turf it is most seriously con-
templated to abolish the house of lords.
The dis-establishment of the church ia
talked OF, and the conversion of church
property to the maintenance of frae
schools is one of the topics of the day.

he '.E Texas Monitor is authority for
saying that 100000 acres of land In
Texas are owned by alien Englishmen
and Scotchmen. 1t is high time the leg
islature of this state should take steps
toprevent foreigners from holding lands
in the state to the exclusion of actual
settlers. These lands are owned by men
who probably never put foot on Texas
soil, who are using many acres of school
lands for the purpose of grazing their
cattle and want to pay no rent for them.
Let the legislature pass law requiring
all foreigners top pay so cents an acre for
school lands and they will not fail to do
1t, and the people of the state will com
mend the Lawmakers for doing so.

A CORRESPONDENT from Weatherford
asks the HERALD to give the longest
run made on schedule time by sleeping
cars. The longest run made by sleeping
cars is from New Orleans to San Fran
cisco, 2,i95 miles. The next is from ST.
Louis to San Francisco, 2,435 miles. But
it is said, although these two lines adj
vertise through sleeping cars, changes
are made on the route. The next long
est, is from st. Paul to Portland, l,9l!
miles, then New Orleans to st. Louis
1890 miles, and then follows from st
Louis to Boston, 1912 miles. Probably
the longest route that really send
through sleeping cars, is the one from
st. Paul to Portland.
