There is no doubt that the restric-
tons that now exist in all the Euro
pean countries against the ingress Of
American cattle will have to be modi-
fed or there will be immediate meas
ures of retaliation. The movement
for protection demands this in order to
be made consistent. This discrimina-
ton on the part of Germany, France
and Great Britain has become motor
ious and while 1t is so there is a hue
and cry raised against American IA
voritism. The cry avails not to pre-
vent a real knowledge of the situa-
ton. American interests are to be
considered at Washington so long as
the present administration continues
in power. Grover is not running

The Houston Post in demanding that
some of the city streets be paved with
asphalt is on the right track There
is no longer any doubt that the prop
erly prepared asphalt is the best pave
ment on earth and that it will stand
the heat of this Texas climate with
out injury. AT least the experiment
so far as tried in San Antonio is a sue
cess, and Houston will hardly admit
that it is so much hotter there that
the same pavement that stands here
will melt there.

is evidence enough accommodating all
along the, way of industrial and COM
mercial increase to be proof conclusive
as holy writ to any one who had eyes
to see and a mind to comprehend. But
as of old there are those who will not
believe the evidence of their own eyes

President Mckinley can afford all the
ehaff that is blown at him by the airy
nothings of the yellowboy press. He
accepted his nomination on a platform
squarely committed to bi-metalism, he
announced in his letter of acceptance
and in his first message to Congress
his adhesion to the bi-metallist plank
of his party and he is standing right
by the altar and the stun. His ia
structions to all the foreign ambassa-
doris are explicitly in favor of bi-met-
allism and it is not worth while for the
gold bug monometallists to criticisc.
Mckinley is wisely consistent

There is not any difference OF opinion
among the sheepmen OF the west as to
the duty really necessary to protect
them and their interests, and among

all practical purposes of protection, so
say the Texas and Montana sheepmas-
tiers, and with that it ought to stand.
