Galveston Tribune.
Many good officers In the legislature do
not agree with Governor Ssyers in his in
terpretation OF tho constitution and the
supreme court decision as bearing upon the
Missouri Kansas and Texas consolidation
act, which he found 1t necessary to veto.
In the view of a large majority of both
houses, as evidenced by the vote under
which the bill passed, it is a meritorious
measure designed to economic operation
and tending to lower railroad rates. Per-
maps the governor shares this view. He
could consistently hold to such view
while vetoing the bill on constitutional
grounds.
The gubernatorial Interpretation of the
constitution in this and other like cases
whether correct or strained. is sufficient
TO make such needful legislation impos-
sloie. Consequently the State Ia unable
10 permit such reorganization and consolI-
dalton OF railroad properties as would
benett commerce
This again illustrates the fact that Texas
mas outgroWn the constitution. 1t was
ADOPTED at q time when the greatest care
was required to prevent railroad monopoIv
and when competition was the only regu
lator OF rates. Great changes have taksn
place in railroad matters within the de-
osde. They are adequately regulated nv n
constitutional commission itself provided
by an amendment to the original instru-
ment which required regulation by the
lesislature) and there is now no possibilitv
OF eXtortonate monopoly Yet we can not
adapt our laws to the altered conditions
Almost any attempt at progressive ey
rarding legislation will meet ike oh
stuction.
There is no use for the legislature tc
quarrel with the governor. He is doing
ms conscientious duty. TIE better wav is
to courageously take up the fight for CON
stitutional revision and go back to the
people with an intelligent statement OF tbs
situation. Early in the present session y
majority OF the members were inclined 10
revision. but they were frightened by thr
ominous warning OF appropriately and aI.
lowed the movement to subside. A hold
tight for palpable necessity would have
carried the measure through both houses
and the same sort OF fight would have
carried it with the people, who are alwavs

PREPARING TO RErALIATE.

About the only way for the other big
nations OF the earth to obtain the consent
Of the now dominant forces In American
politics to abandon their narrow and self
ish protective policy will be to retaliate
upon America In kind. A high tariff will
never look out Of place to our protected
interests until 1t is invoked against them
abroad.
The Canadians appear to have reached
this conclusion since the failure of the
Canadian American commission to reach
a reciprocity agreement owing. chiefly, to
the opposition of the lumber interests on
our northern border and one or two other
favored American industries Our neigh
bors are not only hot" but breathing re-
talation of the most practical kind. The
Toronto World. one of the most influential
OF the Dominion Journals says
1--WE import from the United states about
$50 0000 900 worth of goods a year. Instead or
spending his time uselessly at Washington,
Sit Wilrrid Lnurier should he at Ottawa de-
vising o policy to compel the Americans TO
manufacture tho bigger part OF these Imports
IN Canada. Instead of In tho United States.
by the adoption OF a vigorous protective pol
ley Canada cGn reduce this excessive bill of
imports from the United States by fully 30
per cent. II the government had sense enough
/ To duplicate the United States tariff for Can
I aeh American Arms would be tumbing over
ono another to get location in this country
/ II is Significant that similar comment is
being INDUCED by practically the entire
| Canadian press. The Monetary Times
also OF Toronto declares that the diff
Guilty OF making treaties with the United
States would seem to be greater than
with any other country" This conviction
Is one almost universally held with ref
erence to the United States.
II Canada should reduce our imports
into that country by 80 per cent, the shoe
would begin to pinch in sensitive quarters
and we should soon find decidedly strong
or sentiment being worked up on this
side of the border In favor of reciprocity
treaty. The application of our own meth
DDS to certain OF our exports to Germany
has already raised q vigorous protest, but
unfortunately as yet 1t Is from men who
can not see themselves as others see them.
A little wider application of the McKln-
ley doctrine, however, in Europe would
soon make the revelation of the costliness
of our selfish and llliberal policy very
clear to us and bring us to our economic
senses.
There is already abroad. aside from in
Canada. plainly apparent disposition to
resort TO this lex tslionis and IL we persist
for year or SO longer in practically clos
ing our markets to the world the world
will begin also to close some now profta-
bic open doors to us, to the serious en-
harrassment OF our industrial activities,
1t can be taken as perfectly safe propo-
sition that narrow National policies will
sooner or later react disastrousy upon
those who adopt them.

adhering to his own convictions on mat

Kittrell has also learned not to be scared
at the furry and noise of the interested
who would refer a charter amendment to
popular vote. but who fear to let people

bit of experience of this sort on the pro-

know what will be good and pleasing to
