"a POLITlCA NACIONAL.

N6tase facilmente, al recorrer
Ia prensa de la Peninsula, que
reina bastante confusion y mas
que confusion apasionsmiento al
iuzgar la soluci6n dada por la
inteligencia privilegiada de S.
M. Ia Reina Regente al grave
conAicto surgido para la Naci6n
con ell asesinato del Sr Canovas
del Castillo.
Los peri6dicos de la oposicion
Y parte de los llamados indepen
dientes, reforzados con las mani
festaciones de censura 6 des
acuerdo de los Sres Silvela y
Martinez Campos, pretenden dar
como evidente 6 axiomatico que
constituye un error muy grande
la permanencia de los conserva-
dores en- las esferas del poder.
F1ndause para clio principal
mente en- la. afrmaci6n, incontes
table q juicio de los que la for
muIan, de que no existiendo hoy
realmente partido conservador,
dentro del regimen parlamenta
rio Sc impone el advenimiento de
los liberales, que, al conservar su
jefe conservan tambien su orga
nizaci6n y discipline como agru
paci6n pOlftica. Insisten por otra
parte en- denominar la situacion
presente como de interinidad, va
que, segGn Green, la confirmation
de la Presidencia al General Az
cSrraga y de todo el Ministeric
conservador, no signifca otra
cosa que la continuation del re-
gimen provisional 6 meramente
transitorio que sucedi6 a la muer
te del ilustre Canovas del Castl
ilo.
Y alegan, por dltimo. como
argumento irrefutable { invenci-
BILE, que los Jefes de partido nc
pueden ser nombrados por Real
Decreto, sino por la opinion p1
blica y, por tanto, que es anona
10 en- alto grado que este al fren
te del Gobierno ell General Az
csrraga, ell cual no reune hasta
Ia fecha aquel caracter.
Con estos precedentes, y no OIL
vidando ell ardor y la exaltacion
con que tales problemas Sc plan
team y discuten, comprenderan
iluestros lectores el estado actual
de Snimos en- Ia Peninsula por 10
que a tan interesantes extremes
Sc refere.
Examinando sacramento la
question echase de yer en- segul
da Ia falta de laz6n de los que
combaten con energ:s y dureza
dignas de mejor suerte una deci
sion Real, estimada Ia mas Pru
dente y oportuna por los pr.nci
pales politiCos de la Naci6n y del
extranjero'
Y no hay que perder de vista,
en- 81 analisis que Sc haga, que
Ia soluci6n de la crisis, soluci6n
que desde luego merecio del in
signe CASTELAR, el dictado de la
1nica possible y racional, fue a.
ceptada antes por el propio Sr
Sagasta, que desde los Primeros
momentos declare noble y leal
mente que debian continuar en- el
poder los conservadores, demos

labras, que la bala de un asesino
no puede en- manera alguna alte

HOUSTON CATTLE MARKET.
Al Excellent Demand for All Glasses
Of Stock.
THE EFFECT OF THE NEW PACKERY.
Five 10 Ten Cars Of Cattle Can Ne
Handled Dsily-Also Hogs
and sheep.
He EFFECT OF THE NEW PACKERY
oface of Tho Post.


Houston. Monday. August, q.
Mr.. j. NJ. Frost, one of Houston's well
known live stock commission merchants.
is enthusiastic over the opening of the
new packery and states that 1t bids fair
to make this city one OF the best cattle
markets in the State.
Although the packery has been in OPP
GRAFTON only two weeks, we are already
feeling the increased demand for cattle
caused thereby" sad Mr.. Frost today.
I'VE can now boast Of good market, and
all classes of stock can be quickly sold at
good prices. There is no more holding
over to wait for a demand Five to ten
cars OF cattle, one to TWO cars of NUT
ton and two to five cars OF good hogs
VIII meet ready sale at strong prices and
all be sold at once.
While our new packery consumes d
considerably amount of stock we have
also a large number of good butchers who
come directly in competition with them,
which as a natural consequence results
m good prices to the shipper and war
rants me In saying we have as good a
market as can be found in the State.
Under the present circumstances. l
can't see why the city of Houston should
not boast OF as good market, IL not
better. than any of her sister cities. We
have long since needed packery here,
and now that we have 1t, the cattle
ralsers should give 1t trial.
Il think all stockmen or shippers can
safely depend on a good. strong and act
i've market for every class of stock. Even
bulls, stays and other rough classes of
cattle. which have heretofore been hard
TO handle at all, are also In very active
demand for feeders, and several thousand
can be sold at good, strong prices.
II would advise shipments of any class
Of stock and a fair trial of our market at
oIce, and honestly believe all shippers
Will be fully satisfied.
Today's market closes with MO stock or
any class to amount TO anything on ha,kl
and all butchers, as well rs the packeiJ,
anXously inquiring for same. l would
advise two to four cars OF calves, three
to five cars of cows. two TO four cars OF
cho.ce beeves, two to four cars of bulls
and stays, two to four cars of rough
beeves and oxen. four to six cars of good
cornfed hogs and two cars of mutton
They would bring the following quota
tons.
