LAREDO, Tex. Feb. LEI Munro,
Spanish paper published here, says con-
corning the revolutionary movement in
Mexico:
s.Garza is organizing his army inthe
states of Tamaulapus and Coahuila,
where all the people are in sympathy
with his cause, and according to reports
the states Of Vera Cruz, Puebla and
Guanajuata are preparing their proposed
revolt with extraordinary activity. 1t
is fact that capitalists and military
men of ability are interested in the rev
olution. but being afraid of appearing
before the public as enemies of the gov
eminent, they will not openly declare
their position until more favorable OPP
portunity occurs.
/ 1T is learned On reliable authority

| Diaz recently advised relative not to
change residence and take his family to

| the nearer he was to the frontier until
| the present difficulty is settled
| Thousands of revolutionists, whom
| the American troops are attempting to
scatter and prevent their reorganization
are under the command of the brave
General Bonevides, and not under COM
mand Of CARA, as the general public
think CARA is in the state of Cahuila
at the head Of from 5000 to 5000 i en-.
'sCatarino Garza's army is ali the time
! increasing and his cause is made the
stronger notwithstanding the activity

pie, with few exceptions, are dissatisfied

RECIPROCITY.
What that Policy Thus Far Amounts To-A
Wonderful Showing.

What that Policy Thus Far Amounts To-A
Wonderful Showing.
Ne~ York Tribune,
The period during which the free
market for sugar, molasses, coffee and
hides could be enjoyed as gratuitous
privilege ended yesterday. Under the
provisions OF the reciprocity amend
ment to the tariff act it now becomes
the duty Of the President to close the
market against those countries with
which the conditions OF trade are in
equitable. Brazil, the British and
Spanish West Indies, San Domingo
Germany, Hawaii, Guatemala, Costa
Nica, Salvador, and probably Mexico,
have. complied with the requirements OF
reciprocity and secured the permanent
enjoyment OF the; privileges OF the free
market. American flour, with the
opening OF the new year, will be sub
ject in the Spanish West Indies to a
duty OF 30 cents in place OF S. GU a
barrel. The reductions OF duties on
breadstufis in Germany, the British
West Indies and the three Central
American republics will follow early in
the year.. The treaty arrangements
with Mexico have not been announced
but have probably been made.
The reciprocity amendment has been
applied by the administration to five
sixths of the imported sugar supply OF
the United States. The treaty arrange
ments made Spain, the British West
Indies, Brazil, San Domingo, Hawaii
and Germany cover SS7,227,669 out Of
an aggregate OF Sl0l ,263.327 imported in
1890. This is over, Sc per cent. The
remainder, less than II per cent,
amounting to Sl4,035,65S, comes from
the Philippine Islands, the Dutch East
Indies, Austria Hungary and other
countries. Tie bulk OF the sugar sup
ply is admitted permanently to q free
market, and in return great concessions
have been secured for the American
export trade. The total importations
OF coffee received in the United States
during the fiscal year ending June 30,
1880, were S7S,253,446. The reciprocity
policy has been applied by treaty to
two-thirds OF this supply, tho importa-
tons from Brazil, the West Indies Tex
cept Hayti), Guatemala, Costa Rica,
Salvador and Mexico amounting to SOL
S5T,s60. Venezuela, Colombia, Hayti,
Nicaragua and tho East Indies furnish
the remainder OF the supply, amounting
to S23,395,j77. OF this remainder, for
which no reciprocity arrangements
have been made, So, GG2, 207 comes from
Venezuela, about the same amount
from Asia and Africa, and Si,OOO,O0O
from Colombia, Haytiiand Nicaragua.
Apparently the President will be
compelled to reimposc duties against
the coffee OF Venezuela, Colon bia,
Haytiand Nicaragua. The sugar sun.
ply has been covered so completely by
Reciprocity. that no important Southern
country requires attention in this re-
spect. Hides are received from nearly
every Southern country, and in large
quantities from Uruguay and the Ar
gcntine, which produce neither sugar
nor coffee. The Presidents action in
enforcing the amendment will be await
ed with keen interest.

4 National; Flower.

It seems that tho pansy as a candidate
for tho high position of,national flower
has made such progress as to be able to
form a national association pledged to
pushiit to the front and havcit incoorpo-
rated in the national flag. Instead Of
the starry field being unframed, rs now,
tits to beenclosed in frame Of pansies.
This is TO be done in time for a great
demonstration at the Worlds Fair, a
hundred thousand children marching to
victory under the flag Of the pansy
frame.
We are willing to admit that the
pansyis q beautiful flower, and that it
would mako . striking frame for tho
flag, ii The flag must be framed. But
with the adoption Of the pansy5 as the
national flower would come inevitably
the adoption Of "0nly a Pansy Bios

SOM as our national air. With the
pansy proudly blazoned on the flag, that
banner Of the free would have to con.
sent to be salutcd with tho air we do
not like to namc twice in this peculiar
connection.
1t would give the ISrELLrdEScER
pleasure to endorse and advocate the
principles Of the Pansy Association II
that seemed consistent with tho high.
est conception Of the public welfare and
the eternal fitness OF things OF this sort.
Until the pansy can justify its claims
to tho proud distinctionit seeks, it will
have to wait for the support it does tho
ISrELLroEScER tho honor to request,
Meanwhile 1t is hoped that there arc no
hard feelings.

Municipal Control of Street Railways.
When the first street car tracks were
laid nobody ioresaw tho wonderful do.
velo2mcnt OF the street car system OF
transportation, the part it was TO play
in urban life, the value OF tho fran.
chises it would secure, the factor it was
to become in municipal government it.
self.
Much stranger than the lack Of fore
sight in tho beginning has been the per-
verse unwillingness Of each city in turn
to take any lesson from tho experience
OF cities earlier in the field. Each city
has granted franchises as though none
had boon granted elsewhere, and there
fore there was nowhere to turn for in
struction and guidance. So it came
about that each city repeated in the
main the plumbers OF its predecessors
on the same line.
Capital was not slow to discover that
street railways offer good opening for
investment. Rights OF way without
cost maintained and policed at the pub
lie expense, roads laid down on the
most travelled highways where the
traffic was already there to be taken up,
these conditions were too attractive to
escape the notice OF shrewd men, some
OF whom had money, others knew how
to get the franchises.
These grants became Of so great
value that the street railway grew to be a
potent factor in politics. Men were set
up and other men knocked down be.
cause they favored or did not favor GER
tain street railway schemes. The buy
ing and selling OF votes has not been an
uncommon thing in connection with
this business. Ii the cities, with their
present experience, could begin at the
beginning, no franchises anted, no
streets given up to railways, the very
smallest city in which there is business
enough to support street railway
could sell the franchise for bonus and
yearly rental Tor the streets used.
Or the development might be on a
radically different line, as is now pro-
posed by Glasgow, Chicago and some
other cities, namely, Of municipal own
ership. The Chicago proposition looks
TO the ownership OF the tracks by the
city, the lines 20 be operated by pri-
vatc ownership under the city's con-
troll. The Glasgow scheme includes
municipal operation as well rs owner
ship of the roads. The end sought in
each proposition is the greatest public
good at the lowest cost to tho passen-
ger.
The fundamental principle on which
these propositions rest is that the
owner OF the highways should be the
owner and regulator OF all encumbrances
onthem. II the city owned the street
railways OF Wheeling we should have
competition and good service and a
more extensive system than We have
now. The city has given valuable fran
chises, and the city and the people get
very little in return.
We have Numbered Uncommon with
other cities, and perhaps as other cities
find Il way to make amends for their
mistakes we shall find a way to profit
by their example ~ g..

naby. Graves knew Mrs. Barnaby's
habits and likings, knew that she was
fond Of whisky, and would not suspect
that there was danger in the bottle. Ic
knew that he was beneficiary under
her will. He had none to much OF the
worlds goods.
After the death Of Mrs. Barnaby,
Graves, who had in great part managed
her affairs and should have been among
tho first to go to her, reached Denver
deliberately and by very easy stages.
His every movement increased the sus-
picion which pointed to him as the
murderer. He was convicted on cir
cumstantial evidence.
Two OF the shoritl's deputies say that
after the conviction he confessed to
them that he had sent tho poison, but
declared that Colonel Ballou, one OF his
counsel, instigatcd the crime. Graves
denies that he confessed. The disap-
pearance OF Ballou is circumstance in
confirmation Of the story OF the depu-
ties.
What these men could hope to gain
by uttering a lilo on man already con-
victcd is not easy to imagine. II they
tell the truth, and if Graves tells the
truth about Ballou, another neck is not
far from the halter. Altogether it has
been remarkable case, and there is
still enough mystery about it to sustain

If the company were making money

very properly that its profits are its own

Ii the city be disposed to relieve the

tho ground that the company has not
