FORT WORTH InSinuates that
she has knocked the live stock
business of San Antonio on the
head. San Antonio will be the
livestock metropolis of Texas when
the archaelologist of the future is
enquiring for the lost site of the
little hamlet that figured as Fort
Worth in the latter days of the
nineteenth century.

LAREDO's new bonds are no
good. Being for more than the
city is entitled to incur indebt-
eness, taken in connection with
previous bond issues, the comptrol-
Ter refuses to register them. This
is merely applying the legal
remedy and against such decision
there is no law.

THE Fort Worth Gazette is al
ready dreaming of being the metro
polls of Texas, because some BOs-
ton capitalists have taken in that
packery out of the wet. The Fort
is right pert town, but it is too
near Dallas ever to be a metrOpO-
lis. There is plenty of room for
it to grow without tapping over
on the edges. The Gazette's eyes
are over large for its capacity.

a committee has requested his in
tervention. Hogg is respectfully
referred to former attempts of his
at intervention, when it would
have been far wiser for him to have
kept hands off. His intcrventions
are not distinguished successes.

BISMARCK gives Caprivi good adj
vice when he argues against disso-
luton of the Reichstag on the
ground that the elections would
certainly go against the govern
ment, and that it would be far
wiser to modify the.military bill.
Caprivi missed it when he did not
accept that offered compromise. In
a hot contest like that a fOur-tifth
concession would have been vic
tory.

SAN ANTONIO is as sober, quiet,
Iaw-abiding and secure as she is,
because a wide latitude is allowed
her free people. Restrict her just
and proper liberty, compel her to a
hypocritical observance of customs
repugnant to her people and you
change all this. Puritanism and
private corruption grow side by
side. They are the natural con-
comitants, the one of the other.

If the $6O,OOO,OOO agricultural
products that we buy abroad were
raised at home, and the 10000 bales

country would be just that much
ahead. The farmer needs prOteC-
ton just as much as the mechanic
and the manufacturer.

Colonel Meany told the pilot to go
ahead anyway. Then, as the tug again
moved toward, the officer on the cutter
was seen to call his entire crew. The
SAILORS quickly took of their coats and
reached for a huge coil of rope. Tha
crew OF the cutter were about TO make
fast and place the party under arrest.
Governor Wer5s, however, did not
think it good policy to run up against the

Nyack put about and passed close to the

The facts in the matter are these:-
Mrs. Cleveland, inasmuch as she was
not going to accompany the President to
Chicago, determined to return to Wash
ington on the train over the Pennsylvania
Railroad, leaving at five o'clock Thursday
afternoon. The hour for the review
having been fixed at half past ten A. M.
1t was supposed thers would be time after
the Presidential party left the Dolphin to
return to the hotel and thence drive to
the station. The postponement OF the
review from half past ten to one P. NJ.
necessitated the change in Mr. CleVeland's
programme.
Iustead of returning to the hotel
Admiral Gherardi provided tug to take
Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Bissell, wife of The
Postmaster-General ana Private Secre-
tary Thurber from the Dolphin at 4
o'clock and carry them direct to the
Pennsylvania Railroad Pier in Jersey
City. The party travelled in a private
car attached to the regular train, and ar
rived in Washington according to pro-
gramme, at about IL O'Clock.
