Enteredsat the Brownsville, Texas,
postoffice as second class mail matter.
SATURDAY, APRIL 13, 1901.

IT DOES.lOOk as if the Legislature
might have granted Galveston the
use Of her taxes for the next ten,
or even fifteen, years, in order to
help fortify the city against future
ravages Of the gulf in hurricane.
1t was not as If the state had been
asked to appropriate money from
the treasury now on hand, but,
merely to allow a comparatively
small sum yearly to be used for
the benefit OF the storm stricken
city, instead of turning it into the
treasury as usual Meanwhile the
great increase 10 taxable values
through the recent oil discoveries
and other development of the
states resources would doubtless
easily cover any deficit in the
states revenues resulting from the
DETECTION of that usually collected
from Galveston, and which must
be greatly reduced anyway from
what it was in its former day of
prosperity.

pursued such course there as to
gain for us the very cordial hatred
of the Porto RicanS. The iact that
so many Of lie islanders have been
emlgrating to other countries Of
late also shows dissatisfaction
amongst them and tends to prove
the statement of their destitute
condition. 1t seems strange that
such should be the case, when no
one can doubt the purely benevO-
lent intentions of this government
towards the people of Porto Rico.
Natural conditions have something
to do with it doubtless, but it is
nevertheless true that an under
standing between two peoples so
totally different in customs. Ian.
guage'and sentiments, is most diff
te of achievement. The Porto
Ricans complain that unjust laws
have been imposed upon them
not perhaps without good cause, at
least, IN ;he matter of the tariff
imposed on imports from the is
land to the "mother country.
They also complain of the arrogant
manner of American officials.
Evidently Uncle Sam has blunder-
ed somehow in his first attempt at
benevolent assimilation. "

TRY A SMALLER BOAT.
Shamrock II Will Not Garry Extraor-
binary Sail.

Boston, Jan. 16.-According to the Her.
formation. Sir Thomas Liptons new
challenger, the Shamrock II, will have
a draft of 10 feet. inches; beam 90 feet
; inches, and her length over all will be
1"G feet. The lead weight is to be 50
tons. Designer Watson believes that a
beam such as he gave the Shamrock IL
is better for all around performance
than the 26 feet which he gave the Va1-
kyrie III. 1t is very noticeable fact,
says the Herald, that the new challen-
ger and the Britannia, the Prince of
Wales boat, have exactly the same beam
dimensions. though the former has more
princes old yacht. 1t is evident from
these dimensions that Mr.. Watson has
gone in a measure to the canoe type of
nidship section more like the Jubilee
than any of our other American boats
1t is quite evident that the yacht now
building by Denny Brothers of Dunn
barton is less powerful than those be-
ing built on this side and it is quite
certain. on her dimensions that she will
not be able to carry quite the sail plan
of either the Lawson or the Belmont
beat but while she may be penalizea
in this respect, she gains on another i'm
portant direction in having less dis
placement. less wetted surface and all
things else being equal, she would be
quite as easily driven under her canvas
as the larger and more powerful boats
with their greater sail spread.

Bolivian Troops Failed to Crush Re
public OF Acre.

New York, Jan. ia dispatch to the
Herald from Rio Janeiro says:
Alarming news unfavorable to the
bolivian forces that are endeavoring to
crush the so-called republic of Acre is
daily arriving from Manaos.
The Acre forces routed the Bolivians
recently near Capatera, in the rubber
forest. 1t is added that the Bolivians
retreated to Port Alfonso and are now
surrounded by the rebel and undergoing
siege. General Basco OF the Bolivian
forces is believed to be besieged at Rio
Visco. 1t is declared that numerous
Brazilians are in the ranks of the rebels,
most of whom went originally from
Brazil, in the so-called republic. The
Bolivian minister has presented a note
to the minister of foreign affairs, pro-
testing against the participat ton of any
Brazilian officials or forces in the rebel
lion. The note declares that the Bolivian
steamer Lure, which was used in opera
tons against the Acreans, had been
seized by Brazilian expeditions coming
from Manaos and Para. 1t is ASSERTED
that the government has resolved 70 take
steps to intervene in the Acre question
in view of the charges of the Bolivian
minister that Braziians are aidings the
rebels. \

1t is announced that the heads of the
house of Bonaparte, Prince Victor Ma
poleon and Prince Louis Napoleon, of
the Russian army, are in England visit
ing the Empress Eugene at Farnbor-
ough. These princes are thirty-eight
and thirty-six years old respectively,
and both are bachelors. This is doubt
less due to their position as Pretenders:
Pretender cannot afford to make n
bad match, and exalted ladies look ask.

Napoleon III. did not marry until he had
attained the throne and the age of forty
four. With the late Prince Jerome Ma
poleon and his children Bonapartism
assumed a new phase. as they are con-
nected with the old reigning families Of
Europe, which no other branch of the
family was. The princes now in Eng
land are descended from a sister of
George III, and therefore from our
Stuarts, Tudors and Plantagenets, from
the kings of Italy and Wurtemberg. and
are, in fact, cousins of nearly every
reigning monarch.

MAY REJECT MIC
ARACuA TREATY
OR KILT BY INACTION-SPECU-
LATION ON COURSE OF GREAT
BRITAIN.

London. Jan. 16.-Nicaragua canal
matters were brought forcibly before
the public today by means of an edi-
torial in the Daily Telegraph, and
lengthy dispatch from the American
correspondent to the London Times.
They take exactly opposite views. The
Associated Press is officially Informed
the governments views. for the excel
lent reason that these views are not
yet concentrated into a decision. The
conferences so far held between United
States Ambassador Choate and the sec
rotary of state for foreign affairs, Lord
Lansdowne, have occurred at the insti-
cation of the latter, and We're for the
purpose of enlightening Lord Lans-
downe on various technicalities, so as
to enable him to explain them to the
cabinet meeting on Friday. Until that
is held Great Britains attitude will not
be known. Forecast thus develops into
speculation. The United States
embassy officials appear to be
hopeful of the acceptance Of
the amendments to the Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty. In spite Of this impression,
and taking full consideration of the OPP
portunities of the embassy officials in
determining which way the cat is likely
to jump, the Associated Press has eX-
cellent reason to believe that if Lord
Transformers voice predominates in the
cabinet, Great Britain will not accept
the amendment. There is no shadow OF
doubt that if the opinion of the foreign
office is followed. Great Britain Will
either regretfully express her inability
to comply with the amendments or fail
to take any action whatever, in which
case the treaty will lapse of itself. Sew
eral of Lord Lansdowne's advisers favor
the latter course. Their feelings can
we'll be judged from a statement of one
of the foremost of his advisers. Who re-
plying to remark that the canal was
not worth a row, said:
