This Southwest Texas is coming in
to the market and her large landed
properties are being subdivided into
smaller farms. Upon these small
farms diversified farming will be con-
Quoted. Side by side with cotton and
corn will be raised cattle and hogs
and small grains and fruits and dairy
products and whatever the peculiar
conditions Of soil and climate and wa
ter advantages render most suitable.
This means that all the eggs Of the
small farmers will not be in one bas-
ket and that failure in one crop or in
one direction will not entail disaster.
Out of this change will come great
er prosperity to Texas than she has
known, for it will be regular, perma-
nent, and not spasmodic.

1t is not only true that Texas needs
an administration able to grapple
with the antitrust question and
squelch the illegal combines, but the
nation at large wants at the head Of
it's legal branch Of the administra-
ton a man able to tackle the trusts
and down them. II these combina-
tons are greater than the power Of
the state, greater than the power Of
the nation, then is government a
farce. The greater must ever contain
and control the less, and II the
trusts are greater than the state and
national government. then the trusts
are the controllers Of the government
and actually in power. This Is con-
dition of Affairs not to be tolerated,
and certainly not to the. national
credit.

There is threat with the bark on
in that bill before congress to put all
articles manufactured by trust con-
Germs upon the free list. That would
cut the tap root Of the trust tree and
bring it down the ground by the run.
Something is going to be done to
choke off these monopolies, and if one
thing avails not another will be tried.
The people have demanded that the
trusts go out of business.

Now that Cleveland is nearing the
end of his rope and can do no more
TO thwart the wishes of the American
naonle he is said to favor the annex
alton of Hawaii. When his former
course on this matter is considered,
his present leaning that way is oniy
canable of one Interpretation, anu
that not at all to his credit. he useu
ali the power of his position 10 pre-
vent annexation with that country
when he first assumed the rein OF gov
ernment. for at that time the Repup-
lican party had made all arrange
ments necessary and his consent as
president was about all needed. ms
he not only refused, but personany
interposed to prevent the existence OF
a Republican form Of government
there To rewrite that page OF MS
official life, is something that congress
should not permit. Let him be treat,
cd as he treated Harrison and compei
him to stand aside and wait for anoth-
er Republican president to do that
which a former Republican admins
tration had prepared the way for four
wears ago and which was only pre-
vented by Cleveland's personal and
political jealousy and cantankerous'
ness.

THAT SPANISH BLUFF.

There is something actually gro
tesque in the threat of the Spanish
bravados to land half a million soldiers
on the shores of the United States,
make mince meat of the great ports
and drive American commerce from
the seas. 1t is only little over three
centuries since Spain, then the most
powerful country in all Europe, under
took to drive the ships of England
from the seas and land an army on her
coasts to destroy her ports. She sig
nally failed and her ''invincible arma-
da" was strewn for thousand leagues
a wreck upon the rocks and headlands
of the northern coasts. Spain is in
finitely. weaker than she was then.
The United Estates are UNNECESSARILY
stronger than Great Britain was when
Spain attempted her invasion. 1t is
thousands of miles farther from the
coasts of Spain to those of this coun-
try than across the English channel,
and Spain can no more land a thous-
and soldiers on the coast of this coun-
try than she can vouch for the truth
of Weylers dispatches. Before
Spanish ship could touch printing to
a gun aimed at any of our coast de-
fences. or sail into one Of our har-
bors, the American navy would ami
hilate her ships and sink every trans
port bearing Spanish invaders. Spain
knows this. She is as weak in mill
tary power and in naval strength as
she is strong in braggart and insult,
and the end of her race will be run
when she attacks the United States
for interfering to compel her to act
Justly with Cuba. War with Spain
is not sought by this country, but
the nation that compelled France to
withdraw her armies from the soil of
Mexico may of right demand that the
soil of Cuba also be freed from the
torch and the assassin and the butch
er of innocent women and peaceaDle
citizens. This country would gladly
arrive at some peaceable solution OF
the difficulty, but the arrogance and
the ignorance of Spain prevent this.
Peacefully if Spain will, fOrcibly If
the United States must, settlement
must be made with Cuba that Will
stop the carnage there. This is the
sentiment of the American people. and
no braggadocio on the part OF the
Spanish Hidalgos will prevent it an
,ther six months. Spain has so shown
ler inability to cope with revolution
IN one island, as to increase the con-
empt for her power that has so long
been apparent in every court of Eu-
one. The nation that is never con-
,idered in any international arrange
nents in Europe. ON account OF her
insignificance and weak
ness cannot expect to scare the Unit
ID States from the adoption OF any
course that in her wisdom and human
ty she deliberately decides upon.

Because Spain, to her own advan-
tage, entered into reciprocity trade re-
lations with these United States, is no
reason why the United States should
not exert her good offices, and her
power if need be to aid Cuba. 1t was
Cuba that really exchanged commo-
dities with us and not Spain. Cuba
is there yet.

A Straight Republican job,

Courier Journal.
The lnance committee of the senate is a
Republican committee throughout. 1t was
made by Republican votes, from the chairman
to the last member of it. No Democrat, no
Populist voted for it. Its makeup IS such
the Republican senators willed it. For the
control of luxurious committee rooms for the
privilege OF appointing their sons nephews,
cousins and retainers 10 higherpriced clerk
ships. they agreed to make d committee that
would report free coinage bill. In the full
fllment OF this promise they pursued their
usual hypocritical and sneaking methods.
They put six Republicans five of whom are
for sound money. it, and made up the re-
mainder Of Democrats and Pupulists. They
had plurality of the senate. They had about
as many free silver Republicans in their own
ranks as there were among those who call
themselves Democrats. Yet they would not
allow sound money Democrat to have a
place the committee Every member of
the committee. however was elected by their
votes, and every one is a representative of
the wishes of the Republican senators.

TEE ELECTS HIM SERGEANT.
ALARMS.
THREE OTHER CANDIDATES,
BUT THE MINNEAPOLIS MAN wAs
AN EASY WINNER ON THE
FIRST BALLOT.
PoPuLIsTs ARE MAKING READY

in ST. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 20.-The subcommit-
tee of the Republican national commit
tee appointed to attend to the details
OF the coming convention in ST. Louis,
met at the Southern hotel this fore
noon to confer with a special commit
tee appointed by the Business Mems
| league
The first matter to come up was the
selection of sergeant-at-arms for the
convention. There We're four candi-
| dates for this Office, all of which were
on the ground. The name of George
W. Wiswell, of Wisconsin, who had
the support of the prominent Republic
cans OF that state, was presented by
John w. Ewing James S. Garrison
nominated Timothy E. Byrnes, of Mime
apolis, a member of the executive COM
nittee of the National League of Repub-
hcan clubs, and w. W. Johnson, of Bal
tlmore, had the support of Chairman
Manley. Frank Buchanan, an ex-United
States marshal, FOR the eastern district
OF Missouri, was nominated by Richard
Kerens, of st. Louis.
After some discussion, in the course
OF which Mr.. Manley said that mas
Inucn as 81. Louis had secured the cen
Ventlon, he thought it would be better
TO elect for Sergeant-at-arms a man
from some other state than Missouri
the first ballot was then taken 1t re-
suited in the selection of MIR. Byrnes.
The contest was very close between
Messrs. Byrnes and Wiswell, who re-
ceived an equal number of votes on
the first informal ballot. Mr.. Johnson
was given one vote, but on the next
ballot, which was the first formal one
taken, 1T was cast for Byrnes and elect
ed him. The ballot stood four for
Byrnes and three for Wiswell but it
was impossible to learn how the indi-
vidual members of the committee voted
AT o'clock the committee adjourned
for lunch and when the members re-
assembled an hour later a conference
was had behind closed doors, with Sam
uel Kennard, president, and W. H
Thompson, a member of the business
mems league, of st. Louis Nothing
was done but look over the plans for
altering the interior of the north nave
Of the exposition building, where the
convention will be held
This evening all the members of the
subcommittee of the national Repub-
lican committee and a number of visit
ing politicians were entertained at din
ner at the home of Richard c. Kerens
the Missouri committeeman.
