A BIASED CRITIC.

The New York Ecening Post, from hav-
ing been a deliberative and impartial
journal, has worked itself into such a
whitehead rage against one partiular
party and its Administrations that it can
find nothing whatever to approve in any
thing that has even the tinge of that polit-
ical faith about it. 1t has become bitter
and almost rancorous objector and fault
finder, and is correspondingly losing place
as an exponent of public opinion or an in
terpreter of public thought. 1t still in
sists that by refusing to recall Mr.. Bates
from the Samoan Commission the Presi-
dent has directly insulted Germany, and
made 1t likely that from being our friend
the empire will become the enemy of the
United States. The weakness of such
statement is apparent. Moreover, it hap
pened that Mr.. Bates and Prince Bis
marck early had a chat about the matter of
the Century article, and that the Chancel-
lor did not consider it anything tn at at
all concerns him. There was no under
standing that we should send men to the
Berlin Commission who had formed no
opinions upon the Samoan question. If
there had been any such obligation the
younger Bismarck could not sit upon the
Commission under the operation of such a
rule, nor yet two of the British Commits
sioners, who had expressed themselves
freely prior to appointment to their trusts
But the Post continues to shout and moan,
and declares that the Bates article con-
tanned matter bitterly insulting to Ger
many, and whatever may be the result of
the conference, it is certain that we shall
have converted a friendly Power into an
unfriendly one by an affront as unneces-
sary as it was i'll conceived"
1t is a matter of official record that all
Mr.. Bates stated in the Century article is
fact, and that too without particle of ex-
aggeration. The paper states no more
than was set forth by Consul Greenebaum
in the first place by Mr.. Bates in his
official report when sent out as the Gov
eminent agent in 1856, in the second place;
and no more than was testified to by Con-
sul-General Sewall, in the third place. 1t
sets forth no stronger charge against Ger
many than is LAID by all the naval officers
who have been stationed at Apia during
the difficulty, and no more nor so much as
Mataafa, the acting King, officially prefers
against Germany. Yet in the face of all
these witnesses, and the receding steps
Germany is taking in the matter, we are
treated to the spectacle of an American
journal that has been ranked as leading,
declaring that while the Berlin Confer
ence may settle the Samoa question, it will
not allay the Samoan irritation, and that
we are certain to come to bad terms with
/ Germany because President Harrison saw
fit to send to Berlin to adjust the Samoan
| affair a man who understands the case, and
has personal knowledge of the principal
facts at issue, or involved in the settle
ment. The American people do not en-
terrain the sentiments that the Post con-
fesses are its own.

THE RAILROAD INDEBTEDNESS.

In this issue Of the REcoRD-UNIoN we
publish the Introductory portions of the
speech of United States Senator John III.
Mitchell, delivered before the United
States Senate upon the question of the
proper adjustment Of the financial rela-
tions of the Government with the trans
continental railroads that received Gov
eminent aid in their inception. 1t is at
once a historical and an argumentative
paper, and should have the careful atten-
ton of all citizens, since it is essential that
public intelligence upon this important
question of the payment of the railroad
Indebtedness should be properly instructed
and not be clouded by the erroneous state
ments and fallacious theories that have
prevailed concerning the so-called debt
of the aided roads. In SO much of the
able speech of Senator Mitchell as we
print this morning he states the case and
points out what steps have already been
! taken to ascertain the Indebtedness of the

THE SPRING PALACE.

1t was very graceful act on the part of
the Texans to invite the President of the
Mexican Republic to attend the opening
of the Texan Spring Palace, at Fort Worth,
this month. Though the invitation was
fortified by letter from Secretary Blaine
President Diaz cannot accept, for the
reason that constitutional provision for
bids his leaving the Republic. But he
expresses his thanks in very warm letter
of acknowledgment, and couples the ex-
preston with assurances of his regard for
this country and his earnest desire for the
cultivation of the most cordial and close
friendly relations between the two Rerub-
lies. He adds that while he cannot visit
the exhibition, he will send to represent
him some of the foremost men of Mexico.
This is very pleasant, indeed, since it is
known that there is not among the people of
Mexico very much love or even respect for
Americans. The Mexican has not permit
ted the old sore to heal, Notwithstanding
the fact that the leading minds of the
Mexican Republic have striven to remove
the prejudices that the masses of the peo-
pie entertain against the Americans. This
Spring Palace, which the Texans are to
open this month at Fort Worth, is a re-
markable structure, and might well give
Californians a hint upon which they might
improve with profit, in the matter of adver-
Using the resources of the State. The
palace is to be known as the Karporama,"
from the Greek "karpos," meaning pro-
ducts, fruits Of the earth, and "orama,"
view or picture. The plural is
"Karporamata," and hence the views, or
worked out pictures in the interior of the
structure, are to be called " Karporamata."
The building, which is very spacious
and of handsome design, is being con-
structed exclusively of Texas products.
| The great dome will be covered entirely
with Texas wheat The lofty towers will
be constructed vne of corn, another of cot
ton, another of oats, and still another Of
ocean shells. Upon the lower floors the
products of the State will be arranged in
groups, as minerals, cereals, fruits, yege-
tables, etc. The upper floors and galleries
will be devoted to the exhibition of the
handiwork of the women of Texas to the
flowers of the State, the birds, and to his
torical and archaeological exhibits. Here,
too, will be shown great array of pic
lures illustrative OF farming in Texas,
stock growing, Texas history, etc. These
pictures are to be worked out in products
of the State, after the manner of the an
cient Mexicans, who wrought historical
pictures out of the feathers of birds, and
much as the promoters of the Sioux City
Corn Palace worked out theirs in the chief
products of that section. If California
should ever act upon the suggestion of the
Texas exhibition, she will be able to Guido
that State, because her products are SO
: much more varied, in many respects Of
higher value, and in most things Of
greater beauty and magnitude.
