A GOOD deal of bad blood has been stirred up
along the border Of the Rio Granle river, and
hot heads are doing their best to involve MeXi-
co and the United States in war. Ell Paso on
the American side, and Paso del Norte on the
Mexican, are two places closely connected by a
mule car line, and are both resorts for snug
glers, whose business has been a good deal
broken up by the efficient work of the new
Democratic collector there. A X Cutting, edi.

culates considerably over the line where he also
lives, recently denounced a Mexican. named
Medina who was about to begin the publication

gated the matter, and the American editor
signed retraction. He says that he did this
under duress, and then appears to have taken
a mule car over to Ell Paso and renewed the
libel. When the editor returned to his home in
Paso del Norte he was arrested for contempt of
court, and still lies in jail. Secretary Bayard
has fl lmally demanded his release, which the

Cutting was guilty OF deliberate and fragrant
contempt of court, and the offense being COM
mitted on Mexican soil came under Mexican
law. Secretary Bayard says he expects the
matter to be satisfactorily adjusted in the ordl-
Diary course of diplomacy, but troops are being
massed on the Mexican side, and it will be
lucky if there is no collision to intensity the
complications. Another case which has ex-
cited the border passions is that of Francisco
Rasures, whose exnadition was demanded
from Eagle Pass, Tex, by the Mexican author

the American consul claimed. But in spite of
the latter's protest. the man was taken out and |
shot under the Mexican law.

THE call for the Republican anti-saloon con-
ference at Chicago, bears on its face confession
that it is principally tor the benefit OF the Re-
publican party, instead of the temperance cause.
1t says:
rhe very existence of the party is at stake.
That it is now losing at both ends of the line
and gaining nowhere is admitted by all, and
it needs no argument to show that the current
must in some way be changed, or long series
of disasters, if not ultimate ruin, are inevitable.

THE Paris Figaro publishes sensational
article charging that Gen Boulanger, the minis
ter of war and now the most popular man in
France is preparing coup detat and that he
is using the popular eagerness to revenge Metz
and Sedan TO accomplish his private purposes.
AT the head of the army, winning back the lost
prestige of France by brilliant and successive
victories, the writer intimates that would be but
step thence to dictatorship, Plainly he has
no confidence in the republican professions of
General Boulanger, remembering, perhaps, that

one issue of the election. On all other ques-

vigorous government is indeed gloomy and he is
evidently reluctant to undertake the task. The

This means probably either the
