Alabama is making a poor
mouth over the selection of certain
locations in Georgia by the pros
pectors who came from New Eng
land, looking for cotton mill loca-
tions. She contends that her lands
are to the full as fertile as those in
Georgia and her other advantages
every way equal, but that the COM
mittee did not examine into these
facts as closely as was desired. The
simple fact was that crowd OF
Georgia hustlers had the New Eng
landers in tow most of the time
and hustled them into location
in the goober state. 1t is the fell
low who hustles that is destined to
get there every time. This is as
true Of cities as it is of individuals,
and San Antonio has. had left
handed demonstration of that fact
until it sticks out all over her con-
seriousness in spots.

II Brigham Young's practical
ideas as to farming were adopted
in Texas it would mean millions in
the pockets of her agriculturists
every year. He held that no man
should own more land than he
could cultivate to the highest
point Of excellence with his own
labor and that Of his family, and
that no man should go to a store
for anything that could be profit
ably produced on his own farm. 1t
was sound sense in these practical
concerns that created the wonder
full prosperity of Utah and not the
popularity of the religious
doctrines of Brigham and his
apostles and their followers.

Japan is not at all inclined to
stop in her race for empire and the
control of the Eastern seas for any
representations that Russia can
make. There is evidently a spirit
of restlessness under the structures
that are put upon her claims and
she will pay but little attention to
these. Confident of having earned
her right to dictate terms of peace
that to her are reasonable she will
stand by her demands. If these
are resisted she will continue the
fight and her demands will in
crease from month to month as
the conflict wages. She has the
whip hand OF the situation and she
knows it.

James Stephen is down among
the magnates Of Wall street, but he
is judiciously silent this time as
to those bloated bondholders and
those railroad monopolists, upon
whom as governor he was so ready
to turn the tramp army. Stephen
is casting no stones at the money
sharks and the syndicates at pres
ent. His little game as demagogue
was played solely for the benefit Of
the Texas spectators. AS a rail
road attorney he is on the Other
side Of the game and putting VI
gas for combines.

Those Laredo papers are catch

favorable and the lustiness OF their
crow as they drop in to the pit
wakes the echoes of the hills along
the Rio. There is something in
that atmosphere that seems won.
derfully provocative of a tendency
to fight. Why is it that the same

house two papers Of the Democratic
persuasion without their getting

The showing made by the rail-
ways on this side OF the water eff
fectually dispose of the fast time
pretensions of the English roads.
That 1877 miles in 1876 minutes on
the Delaware and Lackawana is
well up to the best anywhere, while
that 5S miles on the Pennsylvania
in less than 46 minutes is ahead Of
the best anywhere for that dis
lance. The best English record is
SO miles in AZ minutes. The Eng
lish roads are better adapted to
fast time, or have been, but the
American locomotive can cover
ground quicker than the English
one over the same rails and road
bed. When it comes to getting
there a little faster than any one
else it is idle to attempt to lead
the Yankee.

The Houston Press is very
anxious for Uncle Sam to pitch in
to John Bull and wipe him off the
face of Nicaragua, but the Press
does not say how England shall
collect her debt. Does the Press
expect that Uncle Sam will foot
the bill out of consideration for the
Monroe doctrine.

The sole instance on record in
which "whitecapping" is reported,
that the LIGHT has any inclination
to endorse, is that case in Florida,
in which the women whitecapped
a man for beating his wife until he
swore off. That was justifiable, il
such proceedings ever are. The
man who offers personal violence
to any woman, and more particu-
larly to his wife, has put himself
beyond the pale and can claim
nothing at the hands OF society
even if he is treated as an outlaw.

The agony is over in Nicaragua
1t would never have been so inter-

make a show Of collecting that
debt forcibly and now they knock
under. Big fuss for nothing.

Has Japan been playing a little
game Of diplomatic "old maid"
with Russia? 1t looks like it.
There was time in the earlier
progress of hostilities that Russia's
growl was heard over Japanese en-
croachments on the mainland, and
she was warned that no acquisi-
ton Of territory would be permitted
there, but that growl died out as
Japan's victories grew in number
and Importance. Then it was
stated that Russia and Japan had
an amicable arrangement by which
Russia was to have port on the
Pacific, to which her ships could
have access during all seasons Of
the year and her vast coast be no
longer ice locked against commerce
six months Of the year. There is
no talk Of anything of the kind
now and it looks as though
Japan intended to shut the Great
Northern Bear up as tight in his
winter quarters as he was before
and herself become his watchful
keeper. If this is so, and it looks
like it, the Bear will be coming
down to cool japan with littl G
tanning and there may be a little
more music in the Japanese ears
than China was able to max Q
Certain it is that Japan is prepar-
ing her fleets to defend her posi-
tion in the East and is determined
to make matters warm for any o.
the nations that stand in the way
of her securing the results of hel
late victories.
