There is no occasion for any in
terjection Of religious strife into
the political contests OF the Nation.
The people who are doing this are
treasuring up for themselves tribu-
lation. A religious-political con-
t1ict in this country would soon
clean out those who engineered it
There is no such class hatred in
this country as would fatten and
keep alive such a senseless ami
mostly. There is neither reason
nor sense in attempting to exclude
large class Of citizens from parti
cipation in the affairs of govern
ment on account Of their religion.
1t is not in accord with the freedom
OF our institutions and will not long
be tolerated.

Japan has won in the first round
and she will not be knocked out in
the second. She secures her treaty
with China as the first desideratum
then she enters into a diplomatic
Ginning match with Russia, with
the ostensible object in view OF ad-
justing their relations to the occu-
patton Of that Lao Tsung peninsu-
la, but in reality to strengthen
her hold on that same peninsula.
Japan knows as we'll as if she had
been born ten thousand miles
farther west that possession is nine
points Of the law. She is as ambi-
tious as colony Of rats. All that
her people need is one pair to breed
from and undisturbed possession
in some quiet corner for while
and then they are prepared to
swarm all over the coveted territory
They are trying this little game in
Hawaii, but it will not work.
They are also smelling around
Nicaragua canal with a view Of
getting special privileges at that
short cut from the Atlantic into
the Pacific. They are not at all in
danger of taking a back seat
through excessive modesty, but
Uncle Sam will step on their corns
when necessary.

That proposed amendment to the
Texas constitution by which man
cannot vote in Texas until six
mouths after he has declared his in
tentions to become citizen, is a
delusion and a snare. What right
has any man to vote until he act
ually becomes a citizen? II citi-
zenship is intended to become the
prerequisite to exercising the fran
chise, as it certainly is, then any
thing short Of this is delusion. If
no man has right to be a voter
and participate in the management
Of affairs and in the government Of
the country until he becomes citi-
zen, then any law that falls short
Of this puts a premium on dishon-
esty at the polls. There are sew
eral Of the states of the Union that
permit no one to vote unless they
are full citizens, and this is the
only self.respecting way. Either
remove all restrictions or require
citizenship, one or the other. This
declaration Of Intentions is only a
cloak. 1t becomes a convenient
cover Of citizenship abroad and at
the same time does not invest the
individual with the responsibilities
Of citizenship while comforting on
him its privileges. 1t is wrong in
principle, false in conception and
pernicious in practice.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 10, 1895

The Grand Army Of the Republic
in Philadelphia will be addressed
in the Roman Catholic cathedral
on decoration day by the Arch.
bishop of that see, Archbishop
Ryan. This will be unwelcome
news for A. P. A, who are trying
to enlist the countries OF the
old world in a crusade against the
Catholic church, denying to them
practically all participation in
political affairs. This work is
destined to create more heart
burnings aud local strife than any
movement since the Know Moth
ing days.

1t is the turn OF the Texas Press
association. They meet this week in
Waco and can voice their opinions
as to the acts OF the late legislature
in their refusal to give the reput-
able journals Of the state a legiti-
mate defense in their criticism of
public servants. 1t would seem as
though the Legislature were afraid
that their own acts would call
forth condemnation by the press
and it was deemed best not to give
the newspapers the benefit Of a
decent libel law. The editors at
Waco have the field now and can
express by appropropriate resolu-
tion their opinion Of that act.

In the declarations Of the Popu-
lists as to the speedy disintegra-
tion Of the Democratic party the
wish is father to the thought
There is no more sign OF such dis
Indignation today than there has
been in the past, nor nearly so
much as there was about twenty
years since. There is not now, nor
has there been for a dozen years
any good reason for the Demo-
cratic party continuing in existence,
no show OF their eventually COM
ing into any permanency Of power,
and yet they hang on by their eye
brows as though they were fix
ture for all time. The Populists
are not going to shake them loose
this year nor next. A party that
lives on the past and draws its
strength alone from the prejudices
that enshrine its name will not die.
out go long as prejudice is stronger
than principle.

that occasion.

The Spanish minister at Wash
ington is expressing little natural
wonder at the gullibility Of the
American people in accepting
without question insurgent reports
from Cuba that on the face OF them
are absurd. The simple fact is that
the press specials are to journals
that are largely in sympathy with
the insurgents, and the correspon
dents in Cuba wire such news as
their principals favor. A clear
cut, concise, direct, intelligent re-
port of matters in that island is
greatly to be desired, for such re-
port has not been given since the
revolution started. The great bulk
of the reports are in the shape Of
specials to the New York World
and it is notorious that all those
reports are as one sided as parti-
sanship can make them. The
truth will have to be sought in
some other quarter.

The frost has played havoc with
the hopes Of the early market
gardeners and small fruit growers
in the northwest. From nearly
every state east of the Rockies
comes the tale of blasted hopes,
crops cut off, fruit prospects des-
troyed and the gardens left a
mass of blackened vines. While
extending her sympathies to these
distressed gardeners and horticul.
turists the inhabitants Of this
state rejoice in their own improved
condition and in those prospects Of
an abundant harvest which the
drouths Of past years have so often
disappointed. This southwest is
not yet out of the timber, but the
light shows the clearing ahead.
Abundant rains for the present
have come and more are promised.
Moisture is the only indispensable
thing to the agricultural prosperity
Of this region. The warmth and

The neighbOring cities are max
ing very kindly and favorable
mention of the Stock Show that is
advertised in this city in connec-
ton with the Jockey Club meet in
the latter part Of the present
month. That gathering Of stock
and stockmen and the auctioning
OF the show animals at the close Of
the exhibit, it is hoped, will be the
beginning Of an annual or semi-an-
nual stock show and sale in San
Antonio that will greatly benefit
the stock interests OF this whole
section. II it does not it will be
because there is a screw loose in
the machinery somewhere, for the
natural tendency Of such gather
ing and the opportunity that it
offers for the sale and exchange OF
stock is certainly in the direction OF
increased interest in all that per-
tains to the live stock industry.
San Antonio will hang her latch
string on the outside as usual on
that occasion.

The new departure attempted to

was defeated. The laying over of
the nominations for a week and re-

having the matters of the depart

i'll. Thorough business methods

The New York Times in making
it's forecast Of political lining up
on the silver question puts the con-
vention vote from Texas in the
sound money column. 1t figures
out sound money vote in the
next National Republican conven-
ton Of 5S4 against free sill
yer vote Of 324, giving the sound
money wing of the party majority
OF 260. On the other hand the
Democratic vote is placed at Alb
for sound money and 433 for free
silver. This shows a close contest
among the Democracy for a sound
money plank in their National
platform. If the Times is within
anything like shooting distance Of
the facts the prospect for Demo-
cratic harmony on the silver ques-
ton in the next National conven-
ton is not by any means exhilerat-
ing. The statistics point to the Re-
publican party as the master Of the
