AN AUSTRALIAN RANoHmAN
Visits America TO Learn Lessons in
Industry For Emulation in
the Antipodes.

the Antlpodes.
Mr.. M. G. Thomson, a wealthy
cattle-raiser of the colony of
Queensland, Australia, is now in
the city on his way home from
Europe after years sojourn
abroad.
In conversation with a LIGHT
reporter, he gave some interesting
information regarding Australia,
it's immense cattle industry and
about his mission to Europe and
the United States.
"Australia has an area Of 3,000,-
600 square miles," said Mr.. Thorn
syI, ali me population OF the
whole island is about 100000.
"The island is divided into five
colonies, Western Australia, South
Australia, Victoria, New South
Wales and Queensland. We esti-
mate that Australia has 100000, 900
sheep and 100000 cattle. My
home is in Queensland, where /
have q ranch containing 100000
square miles, on which are 10000
head of cattle.
"For a mum Der of years we have
been over producing and our cattle
do not bring one-fifth the market
price Of the American cattle. We
have been seeking foreign market,
and that Is one Of the reasons have
been sent out to learn how Ameri-
cans get rid of their surplus and
where there is a market In the old
world for our meats. l have spent
q year in Europe and have found
that in almost every grocery there
are the American timed meats and
they are the leading brands. L
found there would be good mar
ket for our cheaper Australian
meats IL we could properly prepare
them for export, and we can do 80
cheaply and at big profit IL we
can put up packeries and canneries.
In this regard Australia is fifty
years behind America.
81 went to Chicago and Kansas
City and went over the Armour
packeries thoroughly, being &C.
corded every courtesy by Mr..
Armour. l saw how the Ameri-
can workmen were the most skill
full in the world and noted the de-
tails OF curing and canning the
meats and am now going home
to recommend that Australians do
likewise. l will sail from San
Francisco for Sydney, on January
9th.
ave will build packeries and
canneries and put in experienced
American workmen and the latest
improved American machinery,
and our steamship lines will do
the rest. The men and machin-
cry will be sent for some time dur.
ing the coming year."
Speaking Of the new American
cable to Hawaii, in the Sandwich
islands, Mr.. Thomson said: 81
read about it in the LIGHTS tele.
graphic column today, and noted
that it may be extended to Aus
tralia and China. You can do it
and it will pay handsomely. There
is a very great demand for in
creased and cheaper communica-
ton with Australia and the Unit
ed States and it will greatly assist
us BOTH"
Today Mr.. Thomson drove out to
our Union stockyards to inspect
our Texas cattle and note the mode
of shipping, etc.

UPON the ruling of Judge Bethune III the case of woman arrested at Bis bee, having in her possession an original package of me6cal, it devolves upon the government to show that the goods are contraband, which can only be done by ocular proof that they were carrie d into the country. or course, under this in depreciation of the law, conviction for smuggling is impossible unless the off, euder is detected flagrante delicto, which is very seldom the case, and if the rul- ing Is sustained. it will be useless to make arrests except where the smuggler is seen to actually cross the boundary into the United States with the contra band goods in his possession. Recosniz- ing the i'm possibility Of making @ con- pictl0n under the ruling of the court, United s ates District Attorney Ellin- wood moved the discharge of the defend ant and also of seven others similarly charged. We gre of the opinion that the exception by Attorney Bowman, for the defense, was we'll taken ana that the courts ruling will be sustaiued.-Sllver Belt.

would have remained in possession Of the territory. The demand sor repara- ton neans either money compensation or territory. If territory IS taken in lieu of money the result will be the same as if the Venezuelan government had ventured no opposition to the planting of the British flag on Venezuelan soil. In this respect the Yuruari incident is nearly a parallel, in the principle involved, with the CoriLto affair. Nicaragua expelled au ex-British off cial for the alleged offence of conspr- ing with the Indian chief Clarence against the lawful Gove: nment- The Bristish demanded S75 900 in the way Of reparation, and took possession of Cor into until security was given that tie amount would be paid. Nicaragua pro- tested that she had acted within her right as an independent nation. but th" protest was rot considered. The so- called Yuruari incident furnishes the ground for @ similar demand for repara- ton. Advocates of tns Monroe doctrine claim that disputes of this character should be submitted to arbitration. h this way the real facts of the case may be brought to light But if powerful nation may make peremptory demand upon a weak one, and enforce 1t by means of it's superior power, it is not clear what progress civilization hae made in tho last three centuries.

Changes of Climate

Kill more people than is generally
 dnown. Particularly is this the case in
 instances where the constitution is de.
 licate, and among our immigrant popu-
 iaticn seeking new homes in those DOT
 tions of the west where malarial and
 typhoid levers prevail at certain seasons of the year. The best prepRratiye for a change of climate, or of dret and water which that change necessitates, is Hos tetter's Stomach Bitters, which aot only fortifies the system against malaria, a variable temperature, damp, and the facilitating effects of tropical heat, but is also the leading remedp for constipa- tiop, dyspepsis, liver complaint, bodily trou bles rpecislly apt to attack emf grants and visitors to regions near the equator, mariners and tourists. Whe;h. er used as 8 safeguard by sea voyagers, travellers by land. miners, or of agricul. turists iu newly populated districts, this line specific has elicited the most favor able testimony.

THE DREAM OF BLAINE.

A special to the Denver News from Washington says that very few of the details of the proposed formation of pan American Union for resisting Euro pein aggression have yet resched Wash ington. It is understood that the brd- ziiian officials took the initial steps iook- ing to this end, only last Saturday. The American minister has not yet had an opportunity to communicate to this government the plan then formulated, bat cable dispatches which have 3D. peared in English as well as American journals in relation to it have ben cor dislly received here.
 The proposition of Brazil is under stood to diffgr from ths "Zoll vereln" schema of Messrs. Townsend and Blaine in that the proposition of the former was for customs union or Zoil-verein pure and simple. It was custops union which was first established among the North German states which ultimately led to the formation of the North Ger man confederation in ls66 and finally to the form ation of the German empire in 1871. The Brazilian proposition is to form political union fi:st and leave the commercial agreement to the future. It is believed here that so snon as the form al proposition arrives from Brazil, und it is understood to be on its way now, 1t will receive the cordial support of the admin stration.
 1t is certain from what has already besn learned that the discussion among the representatives here of the Latin American states that the other repu plies on this continent are willing and Gnxiou- to join such union which can only re suit in great benefit. Should this ster be taken, and it now seems probable, then the Zoll verein dreamed of by Blaine and recommended by Townsend will follow as logical sequence.
 The trouble in Venezuela bccentuates the necessity of a political union be- tween the Latin Americas and the Uni ed States, and such union once formed will be certain. it is thought here, to lead to a commercial alliance which vii practically give the control of the mar ksts of South America to the northern half of the hemisphere.

THE YuRUARI INCIDENT.

The s .u Francisco Bulletin editorial
 ly discusses the Yurusri incident in
 Venezuela to the effect that British
 sergeant of police crossed the river at
 Yuruari and planted the British flag on
 the Venezuela sIde. The Venezuelan
 police tore the flag down, drove the iatruders across the stream and eubee- quently arrested them. Instructions were atterwRrd received from Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, to release the Eugliehmen and permit them to return to British Guiana. The British go. ern ment demanGed reparstion for their ar rest. The recent ultimatum of Cham berIain was based upon this incident. It is assumed that the circumstances of the arrest of the Britieh policemen re. noves the incident from the range of the Monroe doctrine. That doctrine ioes not specifically set forth the right ,f the United States tC take cognizance ,f police affairs in any or all the Central nd South America countries. 1t is not | within our province to determine wheth- r the fault for border troubles lies with ne side or the other. But it IS evident hat the purpose of this police sergeant Tas to lay a foundation fer British laim to territory on what had been con- onsldered the Venezuelan side of the iver.

GENERAL HARRISON is today the strongest man before the people for the next president. We ssy this without re- fection upon the other great and good men of the party, but President Harri- son has been tried and while he may have had equals be certainly never had superior in the White House in the line of statesmanship.

MR. D. MARKHAM. the San Pedro
 stockmGp, is to certain degree an ad-
 mirer of Mexican law, more particularly
 the one barring foreigners from acquir- ing landed property within radius of sixty milee of the internation line He is further of the opinion that like law should be passed by our government and es rigidly enforced. These views of Mir. Markham will bs endorced by every American who reads them. The restrictive law of Mexico, was probably adopted for the purpose of repressiDg e lcroechment of strong and formld- able neIghbor. Of such things the United States has no fear consequently can adopt more liberal policy without ieopsrdising her territorial lines, but at the same time the law to say the least IS a good one acd its adoption by the United States would we think touch & popular cord.
