The commissioners will have to super.

persons arriving, as well as to examine
their permits TO travel.
As it is possible that among the per-
sons sent back to their native places, there
are anarchists who would try to commit
crime and use bombs and dynamite, the
imperial authorities We're ordered to ex.
anime minutely all merchandise arriving
at the ports as the provisions belonging tc
the drug stores, to watch the signs of this
class of people and TO take all necessary
measures tending to preserve the public

to prevent the entering into the empire OF

message to The Chronicle:
II shall shortly address my constituents

hut l am in entire accord with the convic-
ton that the time has come when Great
Britain should refuse TO hold further
terms with government which has be-
come mere instrument for executing

insane. The European powers, by whose
favor the sultan holds his throne, cannot
oondone his past crimes or ignore future
dangers without sharing the guilt of the
one and becoming directly responsible for
the other l hope we shall witness such
manifestation of opinion here as will
save Great Britain from any such COM
plicity and will give strength and author
ity to decided action on the part of our
government

THE NEW FLAG OF CRETE.

The flag recently adopted by Crete has some
resemblance TO that of Greece, nation that
stands nearest to her in racial and religious
ties,
From the earliest time to 81 B. C. the Cretans
had maintained their independence against
the various monarchies by whom they were
surrounded In that year, however, the peo-
pie were subdued by Quintus Metellus, who
thereby earned his surname Greticus. From
that time until the reign of Constantine the
Great, A. D. 323, Crete was under the admins
tration of the Roman Governor on the oppo-
site coast of Africa. Under Constantine it was
made separate prov nee under Governor of
consular rank, and so continued TO form part
of the Byzantine Empire until the year A. D..
623,when it was captured by the Saracens, who
successfully resisted all efforts to recapture It
until the year A. D. $50, when 1t again passed
under the Byzantine eagle, and so continued
until A. d. 1904, when Contantinople was
taken by the Latins and the Byzantine Empire
was oyerthrown.
Crete fell to the lot of the Marquis of Mont
serrat and was by him sold to the Venetians,
and continued under that powerful CONNER

A FRANK ADMISSION.

II was very good of Mr.. Bryan to con-
tradict himself by asserting that Blaine,
Sherman and other distinguished Repub-
licans had always been bimetallists. A
moment before he charged that the Re-
publican party was welded to the gold
standard, but TO prove that bimetallism
is the proper thing he quoted from Repub-
lican authority. OF course he did not stop
to think that he was not only contradict
ing himself, but was actually commend
ing the Republican party for adhering to
the bimetaliic monetary system.
Hereafter Democratic speakers and
newspapers will be little careful when
they talk about tile Republican party
being 'goldbug" party, for their can
didate for President asserts positively that
the leading men of the Republican party,
and who are enthusiastically supporting
Major Mckinley, are good enough bimet-
alIists for anybody. But Mr.. Bryan tells
no news. The Republican party is now
and has always been for bimetallic cur
rency. The difference between Demo-
cratic and Republican bimetallism is that

JAPAN AND FREE TRADE.

1t is shown in to-day's CALL that Jap
anese goods are made at cost that
Americans cannot compete with. While
the importations of such goods are not yet
large enough to cause serious trouble, a
study of the situation shows that factories
are being extended throughout the realm
of the Mikado. and the day is not far dis
tant when the American wage-worker and
manufacturer will feel the competition
keenly.
Japan furnishes a fine object lesson, a
splendid example of the way Organism
would work. Without a tariff the goods
of the japanese, like those of other cheap
labor countries, would prove menace to
American labor and capital alike. In o
land where little children work for to 8
cents day, and where artisans do not get
more than ten to twelve times that sum
for day of ten hours, goods can be made
at prices ruinous to competition in land
like the United States.

=" I AM FOR FREE WOOL"

When Bryan was in Congress he an
nouneed with all the force he could wiring
out of words, 81 am for free wooIv' AL
ready the sheep men of Nebraska and
other Western States are forming organi-
cations to work against his election, and
very many of them were ardent free
silver and BRYAN men a fortnight ago.
They are still for silver, but as between
free silver and protected wool they prefer
the latter; besides, the idea of Mr.. Nc
Kinley that this country needs to have the
industries opened to labor very much
more than to have the mints opened to
silver just at this time is finding favor in
all the sheep States.
Sheep-raisers are beginning to see that
free-silver coinage would not increase the
demand for wool, but that the opening of
woolen factories under proper protection
would not only increase the demand, but
very materially advance wool values. Had
Mr.. Bryan known what boomerang he
was casting forth when he declared II am
for free WOOL he probably would have
been little more circumspect, but his
record on the tariff question Is being dis
tributed pretty freely in all the States,
and the wool producers of the West are
not the only silver men who are deserting
his flag.
The man, whatever his occupation may
be. is unwise if he thinks the tariff ques-
ton is not paramount. There can be no
prosperity until the business situation is
relieved of the distractions which the
Wilson tariff has put in the way. When
they shall be removed and there is activity
throughout all the highways of trade and
traffic the Republican party will see to it
that the mints are opened to the coinage
of silver in a way that the question of the
parity OF silver dollar with gold dollar
will never be thought of. because every
dollar Will be 100 cents and exchangeable
for any other kind of dollar on basis of
par. 81 am for free wool" is doing noble
work for protection and prosperity every

Antonio is yet the greatest cattle mart In the
country. Most people think that the days oil
the great cattle-growers, what you call the
booms, are almost over. But If you go to San
Antonio and thereabout you will find great
ranches and hundreds of thousands OF cattle
yet.
1.-THE cattle queen of the country is Mrs.
King, who has an enormous ranch, siKty-hye
miles across. and how long don't know, but
an enormous principality in itself, and having
on it many hundred thousand head OF cattle.
Some time since sale was On tapis for this
ranch, and the agreement was made down to
the saddle horses that were to go with 1t, but
on them they stuck, and sale for millions
failed to go through.
az know another cattle ranch there that is
100 miles around. There are many other great
ranches there.
GAS for San Antonio 1t has about 10000 in
habitants. 1t is a little quiet now, but in the
main is as good business point as know. The
climate is good, too. am very well satisfied
with it. How is politics in Texas? Well, you
