HERETOFORE the Protestants have

HERETOFORE the Protestants have
charged that only the Roman Catho-

and that charge has been greatly
modified of late. Now comes Rev.
DR.. Sharer, president of a Presbyte-
rian college and denounces the COM
mon school system, pleading for edu'
cation in Presbyterian colleges. The
doctor has outlived his usefulness.

The Sherman Register is not at all
kindly disposed to the disappointed
republican Office seekers in Texas, for
it would Danish, at least one of them,
to the heats of Hayti:
"The Hay tians are displeased at the
appointment of Fred Douglass, the
United States minister to the sable
republic, and broadly hint that they
would prefer a white man. The wish
es of our colored neighbors should be
consulted and a white man sent forth
with to supplant the dusky Fred. Ii
Mr.. Harrison should conclude to act
upon this suggestion, he could easily
select from among the disappointed
Texas office seekers an appropriate,
fitting and congenial representative"

that are a thorn in the side of its de.

THE Mexican republic under the
wise and stable administration of
President Diaz is making splendid
record for herself. The prophecies of
General Grant concerning her future
ere being fulfilled, as the following
from recent issue of Two Republics
sets forth
"Gen. Diaz is now serving his third
term as president of Mexico, fact
that speaks volumes for this country
which used to be torn with internal
dissensions. In 1879 Mexico had only
372 miles of railway, against more
than 5000 in 1889. The government
revenues in 1870 were Sl6,00O,OOO, in
1859 they will be nearly S3S, OOO, 900,
more than doubling in nineteen years.
Mexican exports in 1880 amounted to
not quite S47, 000,0 900. In 1889 they
were 1000, 900 greater. Her chief ex-
ports are from her mines. In 1885 her
goods shipped to the United States
were of the value of 5000, 900. In
three years they increased 81 ZOO, 900.
Though her mining interests are most
important, yet the republic has hun
dreds of millions in her cattle ranches,
her forests of rich furniture woods,
and her plantations of coffee, sugar,
cocoa and fruits. Best of all, Presi-
dene Diaz can truly announce to his
peuple and the world that the repub-
lie is peace"
This is the country upon which the
influence of American institutions is
being exerted as upon no other coun-
try, and with what results? Recip-
rocity with the Mexican republic is
but question of time and a short
time at that. The result will be mu-
tually beneficial.

LESSONS FROM TRADE REPORTS,

The final statistics of foreign commerce for
the calendar gear 1888 have Just been issued
ard disclose some interesting features. For
instance. the decrease in imports OF steel rails
was n 900 tons, or more than half; IN pig iron
271 600 tons, again more than half; IN iron
ore COS, 600 tons, or more than half; IN steel
ing0ts 4G3,0O0,00O pounds. or about tWo~thlrdS
and in wire rods 106,000,000 pounds, or one
third Nevertheless there was an increase OF
100000 pounds in imports of cotton ties,
and 32000,000 pounds in imports OF TIN plates,
which tends strongly to sustain the claim that
in respect to these articles the existing tarf
is unjust 10 home producers, since these can be
heavily imported even when the materials from
which they are made are to large extent eX-
cudcd
Another feature Of importance is that imports
of wool were larger in quantity but lower III
value, particularly in the carpet Class while the
imports of wOoen goods increased over 10 per
cent. or 1900, O00 and principally in the mis-
cellaneous articles not specially enumerated, many
Of which cvade the specific duties. In this branch
also il is evident that the duties do not serve
their object, and prove ineffective TO prevent
fraudulent imports of other classes OF wool as
being for carpet use and imports OF many KINDS
Of woollen goods through evasions of duties winch
are permitted by the law or by Treasury rulings
The imports Of raw materials for Manufacture
were generally large Those Of iaX ana substl-
tutes increased Al 900 tons, or one-quarter; Of
COPPER ore 100000 pounds, and OF coal 263,-
600 tons or one third of raw silk the imports IN
creased G7l, 900 pounds, or more than one-sXth;
and OF tin in bars OF pigs $780,
600 pounds, or about one-siXth. But
in some other articles there was but little
increase, as in soda ASH or a large loss, as in
satpctre, 24O0, 600 pounds more than quarter
or in glycerinc 100000 pounds nearly one-half.
In fancy articles there was decrease, and in
silks, wines, spirits and most other luXureS, but
small increase, if any, so that on the whole the
! imports of manufactured products in the ordinary
sense must have decreased, while the imports of
| materials somewhat increased.
The imports Of food were, on the whole, some
what larecr, sugar increasing 10000, 600 pounds,
| and fresh fish exclusive of salmon increasing
| $1,000, 600 pounds. The imports of free fruits
also increased, but OF dutiable fruits there was
considerable decrease. In barley decrease OF
! 100000 bushels appeared, and the imports of
coffee were largely increased in quantity. about
one-quarter, but the price was so much lower
than in the preceding year that the increase in
value WAS small \ decrease appears in the quaint
ty of eggs imported. but considerable increase
in potatoes the imports of hops declined 1000
! 600 pounds, os aboyt ono-h0lf, but in rice there
WAS an increase OF s6,0OO,O 900, Or more than 90
| nor cent.

CANADIAN RUMORS.

Canada, if the rumOr- mCngerS are TO De be-
lieved is on the eve of a coup detat OF some
kind What is to be the great stroke of po-
litical policy is largely matter of conjecture,
but Sir John Macdonald is admitted by friend
and foe TO be planning some startling surprise
for the Dominion. One explanation points to
his resignation and withdrawal from public
life after he has nominated Sir Charles Topper
as his successor. Another account forecasts
a dissolution Of Parliament and an immediate
appeal to the people against annexation. a
later and more sensational smmSe anticipates
the establishment Of a constitutional monarchy
with a member Of the Queens family as the
sovereign. These rumors, which have been
| telegIaphed from Ottawa within week, be-
| token unWOnted cOmmOtl0n and uncertainty.
