A VERY NICE SCHEME.

What the Mexican Land and Colonization
Company Intend 10 Accomplish.
New YORK, June 16.--A Herald spe-
cial from Ensenada, Lower California,
says the English corporation known as
the Mexican Land and Colonization COM
pany has adopted and put in force a
policy with the object of driving every
American settler out of Lower Califor-
mia. The company's idea is to colonize
the peninsula with Englishmen, and es-
tablish a British protectorate in the
country On July 1, 1889, a decree was
issued by the Mexican government con-
tanning 4 list Of articles that should be
admitted free of duty into Lower Cali
fornia, for the use Of the colonists. To
prove that one was q colonist it is neces-
sary to secure a certificate from the
Mexican consul at San Diego. This GER
tifcate Is forwarded to Ensenada, where
the Inspector Of colonies keeps q register
of acolonists.' The policy of the Eng
lish company has been to use its infiu-
ence to keep the names Of Americans
from being included in this list. Its
efforts in this direction have been
so successful that the Americans
!, were forced to organize what is now
known as the American Colonists Pro-
tectiye association, This association is
now in healthy condition and is en-
gagged in circulating memorial which
is being literally signed by residents, to
be presented to President Diaz, through
Gen. Torres. The memorial asksA that
President Diaz revoke the grant made
to the English comp3ny on the ground.
among other things, that it has failed to
comply with Its agreement made with
the colonists: alao that they are con-
vinced that the English have well ma
tured plans to involve the American col
onists in iilihrstering scheme for the
purpose of creating a strong prejudice
against Americans ON the part of the
Mexican government; and with view
1T securing theatun confidence Of the
Mexican government and finally con-
trolling fhe peninsula, thereby gaining a
strong strategic point on the Pacific
coast forthe British government.

Thanksgiving holiday from Thursday
- L.. l.. 4. Mnndar

Thanksgiving holiday from Thursday
over Friday to Monday.
The newspaper people get few OF the
benefits of these holidays, but it is a
pleasure to them to see their fellow
creatures enjoying themselves, and in
this way they are not without their re-
ward.
There is, however, ono class OF our
citizens who do not always hail holl-
DAYS with pleasure. These are out
door mechanics and laborers, who can
only earn wages in good weather, and
who when they are "adiourned for
Thanksgiving-day lose a days wages,
which continued good weather may not
permit them to make up this season.
To these the holiday is hardship, but
they have never made any great outcry
against il.
The bosses, too, would often prefer
not to have their men stop work on such
dsys. but they are confronted with the
alternative of doing SO or working half
forces, for some of the men will want
the holiday while others will not, and
hence the conclusion is generally reach
ed that it is better for all to "strike
Off" Thus it is public holidays are SO
well observed.
Tomorrow will be a very cheerful
Thanksgiving-day in the South. We
can most devoutly thank the Almighty
for evils from which He has spared us
and for blessings so monumental that
the dulIest eye can sec and the coolest
heart appreciate them.

Governor Hfil for Senator.
New York World

There is now good reason to believe
that Governor Hill will accept the sena-
torship, which is his II be will take 1t.
The logic OF the situation scarcely adj
mits OF any other outcome.
New York wants and needs. the voice
Of her strongest available statesman in
the Senate during the approaching con-
test there between the forces OF monopo-
ly and class privilege snd the represent
atives Of popular right, and Governor
Hill is notably the strongest available
man. He owes that great service to the
State and to the csuse, and he is not
likely to shrink from such duty.
On the other hand, his election TO the
Senate will give larger opportunity to
his fine abilities than they have ever
had. 1t will bring him for the first time
actively into the arena Of national poll
tics and craftsmanship and that, too. at
time when activity in national politics
NAV contribute in peculiarly elective
ways to the permanent public welfare.
Moreover, the opportunity for his
transfer from State Office to the Senate
comes at the right moment. His term
as Governor will expire at the end of
next year, and there is no other official
position for him to accept at this time
which would give scope to his activity
or be to him other than the reverse Of a
promotion. The talk of nominating
him for third term will hardly meet
his approval. The Democratic senti-
ment against third terms in executive
Office is strong, and Governor Hill is o
Democrat.
Governor Hill should be the senator.
Ii is the will of the Democrats Of bis
State. He is the fittest man, and New
York should send none other to repre-
sent her at such time.
