The DETERMINATIONS that are
made against American ships and
cargOes in the Rio blockade are
not likely to meet with the indif-
ference at Washington that has
hitherto characterized the actions
of the administration in consider
ing the rights and interests Of
United States commerce abroad.
The protest against the unfair dis
elimination grows too loud and
long to be disregarded.

The dominant party in Congress
will have to face the depressions of
business that have come in with it,
and they will have to show cause
why they are not to be held &C.
countable for that depression and
all the attendant evils that have

is going to cost them more hard
labor and deep digging than they
have yet attempted.

Cleveland cannot refer to France
and Germany in the same docu-
ment without drawing such invid-
ious distinctions as to wound the
sensibilities of one or the other of
those countries. Grover has the

The governor of Florida seems to
hold the trump card, and the high

that the foreign nations will con-
tinue to submit to it.
The roses are in bloom in all
their freshness and the grass is as
green as in the spring time. To the
man who comes fresh from the
snow-bound regions of the north

Hogg never comes to San Anto-
MO that he does not make those
in whose interests he appears wish
he had stayed away. He can do
more undoing in an hour than he
can do in year.
When the enquiry for Texas
lands is intelligently made there
