TIE ouEnN REG ENr.

The queen regent OF Spain, who is in
fact the ruler of the kingdom. is not a
SpAniard. but an Austrian. This may
in part explain the attitude OF Austria
in the present crisis. Her father was
the Archduke Carl Ferdinand. In 1877
she married King Alfonso XII, beng
his second wife. Her son, the present
King Alfonso XIII, was born after HE
fathers death, and WAS therefore born
4 king.
Maria Cbrstiaua's sole thought is to
preserve the kingdom for her son
Threatened at home by the CArlists and
Threatened abroad by difficulties
brought about by the brutality and in
competency OF her advisers and rep
resentAtives, she is having such strug-
gle ss no other mother has had. Her
one great interest is TO ace her son 3
king in fact as well as in name, and to
that end she has been raut'cllly az
pealing to every European court Ter
help. In Austria she naturally hnds
an ally, but IL is poor one AZ best.
France may pretend TO sympsthize
with her, but the sympathy OF France
is due more to French holdings OF
Spanish bonds than to respect for the
queen regent. She has appealed in
vain TO Victoria, and Nicholas is too
well known as friend OF the United
States to warrant the expectation OF
help from him. Germany is an uu'
known factor, but 1t is safe to say that
Germany would not move TO help her
in the face of the opposition of Great
Britain and Russia. In view of al
these facts Maria ChristanA is beset
with sore diffi ;ulties. The throne OF
her son Is topping 10 it's fall.

GERMAN NAVAL EXPANSION.
burden which the Country WIN Bs
Called Upon to Bear.

Outsiders can say nothing, though
hey will naturally be on their guard,
Iays the London Spectator. If the
German dream Of a mighty world-pow-
sr is really a widely held national
idea, and if the German people are
prepared to make sacrifices for the at
ainment of such an ideal, which
would be as heroic as they would be
insane, they will support proposals
lyen more far-reaching than these.
But this dream cannot, OF course be
realized without a tremendous COLI
sion with other powers-a collision In
which the German empire would run
The risk Of being smashed and pulver-
lied. For the essential point Is that
Germany cannot attain any such ideal
without encroachment; the rest of the
civilized world has been before her in
lppropriating unOccupied lands. Let
'he truth be clearly stated. Germany
must be content with expansion
through other territorial powers, or
she must II possessed by this idea OF
world-power, run the risk OF an
utilization. For England the burden
Of expenditure is. of course, heavy, but
II is light as compared with the bur
den which Germany will be called on
to bear If the emperor's program is TO
be carried out. II there Is to be a race
Of economic ruin Germany will arrive
at the goal long before we do, and on
her head will be the main disaster.
We write In the conditional mood, for
II remains to be seen whether the
kaiser's megalomania is shared by a
majority OF the German people. There
Is much good sense and o vigorous
logical judgment in Germany, to which
one may confidently appeal. II, as We
have said, the appeal is 10 be, in this
ease, on the grounds Of mere insurance
tor German industry, we do not doubt
the calculations Of the people will be
made, as Is usual with Germans, In a
prudent and economic spirit; and In
any case criticism Of such a verdict
would be impertinent. But II, as the
kaiser's words and attitude seem to
hint, naval program is TO cover
policy OF aggression. we do not doubt
that II will be fought in Germany with
the vigor and determination charac-
toristic of the people, and In that case
We can only wish success to the oppo-
sition.

Special Agent Mckinley is awaiting

that he did not see how there could bs

from proclamation by President
Cleveland, which can be abrogated
only by special act OF congress.

that such proceeding would be the
most disastrous blow that could be

not denied that TO remove the fences
might be temporarily q detriment to

occupied by large number Cf farmers
and cattlemen whose small individual
herds would aggregate just as many

barons.
A majority of the big pastures are
now controlled by the men who live in
Texas, and whose only interest in Ok
lahoma is the opportunity to Craze
their cattle for a mere pittance OF
what the pSsturage is worth. Some
OF them do not even pay taxes on all
their cattle, but move many Of them
into Texas and Kansas in time to avoid

instance, is one pasture, six by TWEEN
