What 1t Taught.

The Spring Palace was a grand adver-
tisement Of the agricultural products Of
Texas. Never before could one conceive
the magnitude of the fruit, grain and
cotton productIveness of this great state.
But one glance through the wide halls
and spacious towers of the palace taught
the observer that Texas is to be the
largest producing OF all the states. The
day is not far distant when the majority
Of the people of the Union will be fed
from the rich and fertile praIries Of
Texas. The amount Of good derived
from the Spring Palace by Texas cannot
be estimated.

j. W. DAVIS CASE.
The Prisoner Valves Preliminary Examins-
ton and Will Remain in Jail


ton and will Remain in Jail.
AS stated yesterday, County Attorney
Ayres had fixed O'Clock yesterday
afternoon as the hour for the pre-
liminary examination of J. W. Davis
on a charge of numbering b. C. Evans.
When Sheriff Rich ardsou visited Davis ip
jail he said he did not wish a preliminary
examination and asked the sheriff
to tell the county attorney
that he waived it. There are
many rumors in regard to Davis law
yers, but as far as known yesterday even
ing he had employed no attor-
ney to defend him. Davis was
quiet yesterday and evinees no feeling
whatever except when his mother is men
toned. He sent her word yesterday
not to come to the Jail yesterday
to see him that it could do no good and
would only afIiict her. Davis sent word
to Mr.. Hollmgsworth of the B.
G. Evans company to come
and see him yesterday but Mr.. Holdings
worth asked what was wanted through
the sheriff, and when Davis sent word he
wanted his account fixed up it was done.
The business of the b C.. Evans
company will run on smooth
ly, Vice President Hatcher assuming
the management of the company.
An examination of the company's affairs
showed that the Iate president had left
everything in splendid condition.
Capt. Sidney Martin, president of the
Martin Brown company Of which Mr.
Evans was general manager, is now on
his way home from Virginia.

THE most foolish movement set on foot
recently IS the scheme to induce negroes
IN large numbers to go to Oklahoma.
There Is nothing in Oklahoma for the
negro TO do, and those who would induce
him TO 20 there are not his friends. The
idea Of 100, 900 negroes going into that
territory is utterly preposterous. That
would furnish one inhabitant for every
eighteen acres of land, to say nothing of
the white people already there. The
silly season set in very early and very
vicious1y this year.

alleged champion the way he did. But

Many errors are pointed out in their
references to what followed, and to
what preceded the War of the Rebel
lion. MIR. Schnadhorst, the Liberal eau
Gus manager, said to-nay: s'There is, of
course, no real analogy between the
Irish demand for home rule, and the
claim of the right of secession made by
the Southern states of the Union. =, 1t
has been well and truly said that you
Will find no one in America who will
maintain for moment that troops could
have been raised in 1860 to undertake
the conquest of the South for the pur-
pose of setting up centralized admin
lStration, or, in other words, for the
purpose of wiping out state lines or di-
mlniShing state authority. No man OF
the outbreak of the war, or would have
dared to propose it. The references of
Lord Harrington and Mr.. Chamberlin
to what followed the American civil
war are equally erroneous.
A BIT. OF HISTORY.
1t may interest Americans who study
the published accounts of the trial of
the Bishop of Lincoln to know that the
last similar proceedings began in the
year 1896 and terminated ten years
later in the house of lords. The full
report of the numerous proceedings.
writs OF error, prohibitions, suspen-
sions, charges, articles and answers
occupy nearly forty columns in the
Trials" This was the case of the
bishop of st. David's, in 1895. Even be-
fore the archbishop the suit lasted sew
eral years, as the estate Trials OBJ
serve, not only because OF the de-
lays occasioned by the bishop
of st. David's himself, but be-
cause Archbishop Tension was
anxious to hear and consider all that
was possibly alleged on behalf of the
bishop. As. Bishop King. has now a
sum of s12G.000 for his defense, there is
no reason, if the church association
have sufficient shot in their locker,
why the presents without do not con-
tinue for like period.
THE WOMEN UP IN ARMS.
The French senate has just granted
hearing to the opponents of the bill
which recently passed the chamber of
deputies restricting women in factories
and workshops to day work, and pre-
venting them further from working on
Sundays or legal holidays. The women
concerned are very indignant at the ac-
ton of the chamber, which did not con-
suit their wishes in the matter. If the
senate does not throw out the bill, COM
positors who do night work, and who
constitute well-paid and a respectable
body OF workers, will be deprived of
their occupation. The new measure
will also affect injuriously a number
OF women connected with the
great markets of Paris, Bookkeepers
at restaurants, too, are now employed
during hours, which, if this bill be-
comes law, will be for the future for
hidden, namely, between g p. m. and 5
a. N. The provisions of the bill are of
a sweeping character, and it is clear
that little effort has. been made to find
out how they would really affect those
for whose benefit the measure was
ostenslbly designed.

THE UNIoNIsTs DESTROYED.
Their Only Hope. Is to Stick to
the Tories---Pigott's Connection
With Houston.

LONDON, March 2.-The solid govern
ment majority shown by the vote. ON
Mr.. Morley's amendment last night
confirms the complete divorce of the
house of commons from the constitu-
ents. Outside happenings, of whatever
character, no longer affect the Union
lists, whose following has vanished, and
the sole hope of the members of that
party is to stick to. the Tories in.the
endeavor to prOl0ng their official lives.
The chief danger confronting the min
listers is that they may suffer defeat
upon some side issue of really small
political significance. The fact that
the public opinion condemns the govern
ment-a fact only too well known to
every member thereof-haS had the eff
feet to demoraliZe the Tories to certain
extent, but its principal effect has been
to incite the Unionists to cling closer TO
their protectors and allies. The drift of
of public opinion, however, is certain to
diShearten both the Upionists and Con-
servatiyes ultimately, and the downfall
of the whole fabric cannot be far off.
Mr.. GladSt0ne'S recent analysis of the
situation based upon the late bye-elec-
tons is deemed insufficient, land his esti-
mates are regarded as. much too low. 1t
is confidently believed that if a general
election were now to take place the
Liberal majority returned would he
nearer 125 than the eX-premier's
calculation of rs. and it is also felt
that the longer the election is deferred
the greater the majority will be. The
Irish Loyal and Patriotic union is medi-
tating the calling of a meeting for the
purpose of considering the connection
of Mr.. Houston, secretary of the organ
iZation, with the infOrmer Pigott. Some
of the prominent members of the league
have expressed themselves in favor
of resigning, because of the eX-
posture of Houston's dealings with
the forger, and altogether the organiza-
ton is hard-hit. Pigott'S telegram to
the Times, asking that gentleman to
fulfill his promise TO send money. eX-
cites 9 fireat deal of comment. 1t is
quite evident that Pigott and Shannon
had an understanding at the last-mo-
ment previous to the perjurer's
flight, and the suspicion is grow
ing that whatever agreement
there was between them was
made by Shannon upon the authority
of his clients. Shannon is in Dublin
and may possibly escape further exam
tioning would lead directly to ascertain
ing whether he had all interview with
Pigott during the time intervening be-
tween the latter's last appearance before
commission and his departure from
England. 1t is believed that
Pigott's body will be buried in Madrid
in order to prevent the inevitable hos
tile demonstration which his interment
in Dublin would provoke. The papers
found upon his person and in his hand
bag will be delivered up to the English
police and by them held. subject to the
order of the commission.

THE EUROPEAN SITUATION.
Differences in the British Cabi-
neU---The Afghan Situation
French Women Up in Arms.

Special Cable TO the Globe.
LONDON, Marzh 2.-The European
situation during the past few days has
assumed more threatening aspect
than at any period within the last two
years. The resignation of Premier
Crispi, the disorderly scenes in the
Hungarian diet between the anti-Ger-
man and the pro-German factions, and
the warlike news from the Afghan
frontier has cast an uneasy feeling over
diplomatic circles, and suddenly
changed the optimist feeling to a strong
pessimistic one. There are persistent
rumors of differences in the British
cabinet which, however, are
not supposed to be
serious. with reference to the proposed
addition to the army and navy esti-
mates. There is no doubt that the min
listers are in difficult position. If
they fail to make large demand OH
the generosity of parliament, they will
have the service" members about their
ears like nest of hornets, and will
find themselves accused of having
broken the implied pledges made in the
autumn. If, however, they make even
moderate demand, they may have to
contend with the whole force of the op-
position.
THE NEWS FROM AFGHANISTAN
is disquieting, and forbodes further
trouble to the government. A majority
of Indian statesmen regard the pledge
given to the Ameer of Afghanistan by
England, to defend his dominions
against external attack, as grave pol
itical mistake. 1t placed England's
entire Indian policy, so far as
Russia is concerned, at the mercy
1F foI
even for dynaStic reasons, be DESTROYS
of precipitating war between Russia
and Great Britain. Of course, England
has loop-hole of escape, and that is
claySe in the treaty making her guaran-
tee for the ameer's protection con-
tingent upon his acting under her
guidance in his dealings with Russia.
But Great Britain could not afford
to damage her prestige by repetition
of the feebleneesS and vaccilation dis
played over the Penjdeh incident.
There is no doubt that on that occasion
Lord Salisbury lowered the authority of
the British name amongst the Orientals,
who are most susceptible to this kind of
influence. England dare not do
it twice. If the entertaining
generals whom the car leaves
with free hand on the frontier of his
empire were to invade Afghanistan
and make bold bid for Herat, England
would be compelled to go to the aid of
the ameer if he invoked her assistance.
The Russians are massing their forces
on the frontier.
AN ERRONEOUS COMPARISON.
The references of Joseph Chamber
lain and Lord Harrington to the history
and constitution of the United States
are severely criticized by politicians
who are familiar with the facts regard
ing the late civil war in America.

toned, because they do not want the Du-
luth u Winnipeg road built at all.
These parties have no regard whatever
for public interest, but are actuated al
together by purely selfish motives.
These parties do not want the North
western portion of this state put in di-
rect communication with Lake Supe-
rior, because they have been persuaded
that the so doing would prejudice the
growth of st. Paul. Such an argument
was not made before the legislative
committee while it had this subject
under consideration, and no such argu-
ment will ever be urged on the floor of
either house, because the parties enter
tanning such views we'll understand the
character of such an argument, and
know that it would be readily under
stood and perfectly appreciated by the
members of both houses. This argu-
ment did not originate with the mer-
chants of st. Paul, yet it has
been so impressed upon some
of them that they have been
compelled to proceed by person al solic-
itatlon to exercise their influence
against the building of this road. Now,
this issue might as well be met and dis
posed of openly and on its merits. There
shall be no stabbing in the back. | have
L
thirty years, and as such take an inter-
est in its prosperity, but my views are
not so narrow and contracted as to rem
der me jealous when / observe the
growth and prosperity of other locali-
ties.
There is really no foundation for this
argument: but if there were, then by all
means steps should be taken to build
this road, SO that the Red river valley
could itself grow and prosper. There
was a time when the agricultural in
terests of that section did prosper, but
that time has gone by, and will never
return until there is competing line of
transportation between it and the lake.
Attention is called to the fable regard
ing the contention raised between the
body and its members. Cities can not
thrive at the expense of the country.
The Interests of the city and country are
in harmony. Detriment to either is
detriment to both.
Ii the idea has obtained Judgment in
the brains OF our merchants or others
that the agricultural districts of this state
are and must remain under tribute to
these cities, the sooner that impression
is corrected the better for us all. But,
as before stated, this argument has no
foundation. 1t is cunning device of
the enemy. The originatorS of that no.
ton are now, and for long time have
been. industriously promoting the
growth of Superior, city of another
state, and [ fail to perceive how a
shorter line from the Northwest to Du-
luth would OF could damage st. Paul or
Minneapolis more than subsisting lines
are doing. If any of our citizens are so
unsophisticated. supplemented and
credulous as to fall in with this sugges-
ton that. completion of railroad from
Duluth to Winnipeg, via the Red river
valley, would change the currents of
trade to our prejudice, let him stand up
