There is general revival Of in
terest in the carrying forward Of
the Nicaragua canal projects, and
the impression grows more and
more fixed that the government Of
these United States should be di-
rectly as we'll as indirectly inter-
ested in the movement. 1t goes
without saying that some respon-
sible government must father the
undertaking, and that government
should be on the American side of
the Atlantic. These things con-
coded there is no escape from our
own responsibility in the matter,
The people and government of this
country have more interest in this
question than have those OF any
other, and they should not permit
any settlement of the ownership
and control of the canal that is
likely to interfere with their own
free commerce through it. 1t is 6

The attempt to coerce the Re.
publican party into any unwise
policy on the currency question is
not likely to succeed, whether it be
by the gold bugs on the one hand
or the free silverites on the other.
The party is in position just now
to take conservative ground on
this and all other questions of Ma
ticnal policy, and it's wisdom will
be to keep in the middle Of
the road. There is no ne
cessity to disregard the plain
sentiment OF the great masses of
the commercial and industrial
classes, which is plainly and I'M
mistakably in favor of the use Of
the two metals as money.

st. Louis pricks up her ears and
elevates her nose at the prospect
Of supplying the brick for some
600 miles of Chicago paving. The
examination of the st. Louis ma.
terial seems to have given the
committee the best satisfaction Of
any reported upon as tested, and
the probabilities are that a con-
tract will be given the st. Louis
parties. When Chicago has to call
on st. Louis for her underpinning,
as it were, there is no discount on
the airs that the Big Bridge city
will assume.

The movement that was made in
the city council some time ago for
the widening Of West Houston
street is giving the city solons some
business to attend to, and side by
side with it is movement Of still
greater Importance to the traffic of
the city, the widening of South Ala
mo street. There is no manner Of
question that the widening of these
streets is an imperative necessity,
and it is equally true that every
year that the matter is delayed
only entails additional expense up
on the city. In the case Of South
Alamo street the need is insistent
and urgent, for there is no side
street into which the overplus
travel can be diverted. That thor
oughfare is today the most crowded
of any in the business heart Of the
city, because there Is no opportu-
nifty OF outlet either to the east or
the west. On the west is the river,
and on the east there is no street
for long distance. Narrow as is
this business mart, the main thor
oughfare between Mission Garden
and Alamo plaza, it is split in two
by the San Antonio street railway
tracks, leaving barely room for the
passage of a single vehicle on either
side OF the rails. 1t is the most
dangerous street to travel in the
city on account of its narrowness,
crookedness, and the frequency
with which the cars traverse it,
and any movement looking to a re-
lief from the danger and discom-
fort of its present condition will be
a proper one. No considerations OF
false economy should be allowed to
stand in the way of change.

Pullman is giving the other side
OF the case, in that strike matter.
The people are not so much con.
cerned as to the small matters con.
cerned in that strike as they are in
the fact that large corporation
like Pullman's can corral labor,
force it into tenements owned by
the corporation at corporation
rents, shut out all those who do
not come into the squeeze, hold a
mortgage over the workman such
as the old Irish landlord held over
his tenant, put the blood and
brains and muscle of thousands of
workmen in pawn for the profits OF
corporate combinations, and then
when the Inevitable kick comes on
the part of the crowded-to-the-
wall workman can imperil the
whole traffic of the country to
maintain it's grip on the arteries OF
labor. 1t Is this that concerns the
country. The rights Of capital,
that is the real rights, work no in
justice to labor, and it is the part
of government by the people to see
that no assumed rights Of capital
work wrong to the industrious.

Victoria, B. c., Dec. 12.-The Austria
lian steamer Warrdmoo, just arrived
brings startling news that the ma
jority of the islands of the New Heb
rides group are passing through a bap>
tism of fire, earthquake and volcanic
disturbances, threatening the very ex-
istence of several of the largest and
best of the islands, including Ambrym,
celebrated for the excellence of its cof-
fee On the latter an entire village of
natives was recently CARRIED to sea: The
loss of life has been var'ously estimated
at from go to 70 men, women and chill
cren, while In others OF the group ia
tahiti IS are also reported. A layer of
ashes from two to six inches deep COW
ers the once fertile fields. AT Epi on
November I'd there was a severe earth
quake in the early morning which
opened an entirely new crater for a
volcano ON the west side of Ambrym,
about fourteen miles distant, and all
the next day the whole island trem-
bled Since then 1t has opened in five
or six different places. Even the is
land of Epa, which is much less affect
ed, had ON November 7th felt sixty.
three distinct shocks, and for weeks
has been covered by clouds of ashes
and smoke. Traders and planters liv-
ing on Ambrym Island have fled pre-

The Way They Handle Train Robbers
in Arizona.

Tucson, Ariz., Dec. ia special to
the Star from Florence says that Judge
Rouse last night sentenced Oscar Rogs
ers, convicted Of train robbery, to be
hanged on February Sth. The crime
for which he has been sentenced to
suffer the death penalty was perpesrat-
cd on the Goth Of last September, when
three men, Oscar Rogers, Frank ArAer,
and John Donhvan, held up the east
bound overland at Maricopa station.
They secured about $6o'from Welis-Far-
go & Co.'S box. and the messengers
gold watch. Donayan is still at large
and the officers have about given up
hope of ever .effecting his capture. Last
week Arner pleaded guilty and was
sentenced to THIRTY years at Yuma PEN
itentiary. The general opinion If the
lawyers is that the law making train
robbdng a capital offense is unconetl-
tutional. and the supreme court OF the
territory will order a new trial.
