The marvellous change that has com
over our industrial life and outlook ii
four years challenges comment.
Our trade balances are a continue
source of surprise to ourselves and the;
confound other nations.
John Bull leads the world in the vol
lime of exports down to last year bu
he dees that trick no more.
The concentration of capital is ou
one rock of stumbling and yet by it ha
come our supremacy.
The lowering of the cost of produc-
tion through labor saving devices ha.
put us ahead of the column.
A
U— —
The earning power of a given sum ot
money is lessening and the earning pow-
er of the laborer increased.
o
Bryan is dissatisfied with the progress
of the country but the country is sat-
isfied with its paces.
o
England is in thedicld with agitations
for a protective tariff as the only buck
ram. Tiiey all learn.
o
The eye of Uncle Sam looks out on a
trade world that lies at liis feet and an
open door in the east.
The < him se are coining to plead with
the United Stales to remain in Pekin
and save them from Europe.
o
There are inspirations of the devil as
well as of the other kind. The inspired
idiot is born to die.

The trust is not the worst thing in the
world and what would destroy it would
first destroy its rivals.
o
It stands to reason that McKinley can-
not be at the same time a usurper and
tyrant and lack backbone.
— ■- - O — 1 -
If McKinley is to be a tyrant or a
nincompoop make him one or the other
but not both at one time.
o
Uncle Sam is creating a new market
for nis productions to keep pace with the
increase of his output.
o

Germany is b it to fight her own bat-
tles over admitting or excluding our pro-
ducts. We can stand it.
This week has been a glorious one for
this old city and the coming one win be
more so. All is ours.
o
If only this city had as good a sot of
municipal brains as of business brains
what could we not do?
o
Common sense applied to city govern
meet would till the bill every time hut
nothing else ever will.

’l'he Itier people are either bluffing or
thqy think that John Bull has his bonds
too full in watching Russia to figure
in any advance in South Africa. They
talk of thousands of Boers in arms
A. H. BELO IS DEAD.
The brief announcement that came
over the wires yesterday afternoon thaj
Colonel A. if. B< 10 of the Galveston and
Dallas News Texas had died at Ashe-
ville. N. came with « shock to the
newspaper world of Texas and the south-
west. To Ids family it came with u
jar. as though a ship had struck at sea.
Colonel Belo was known for many
years as the head and front of the neys
paper world of Texas. Though not the
founder of the Galveston News he wus
associated with it from the close
of the War lictween States un.l for
many years has been its proprietor. Since
the establishment by him of the Dallas
News he has given more attest am to the
northern publication leaving the Gal-
vest m work in the hand of his asso-
ciate Colonel Rob. Lowe. These two
journals are the enduring monument of
Colouel Belo’s life labor. The man
seen in them loom* prominently intc
view as a broad-minded conservative
liberal Democrat little moved by pas-
sion or petition but holding strongly to
the view* he has adopted.
No paper in the Smithwest has com-
pared with the Belo publications in the
fullness and extent of its Texas news.
It early set a mark in this direction
that ha’ not as yet been approximated.
As to himself personally Colonel Belo
was a native X>f North Carolina a gal-
lant soldier in the Confederate service
where he received wounds from which
he suffered during his life and which no
doubt hastened his end. He was a gen-
tleman of reserved manners but warm-
hearted and a genuine friend of all who
were in his service. His family loved
him and his intimate friends held him
in high esteem. He lived for his jour-
nal and the development of Texas and
died in harness. May he rest in peace.
There are Democrats of the first wat-
er who decline to swear py all that the
party docs as well done.
Cereals are in good condition and pric-
es for those on the market are not turn
bling to hurt anybody.
This goodly city is going to keep in
the procession all summer and wind up
with a fair in October.
There is no evidence that the Commer-
cial traveler has gone out of business
as prophesied by Bryan.
The steamer which recently clearel
from New York with 8.900 tons of ma-
chinery for Russia gave a prompt denial
to the impression that our ruling on
Russian sugar bounty had destroyed our
market there.
It is almost time that the Texas hog
protected against being bred raised
grown fed fatted and sold in his home
to l>e taken to Chicago to be turned into
pork and resold to his raiser at 100 per
cent profit.
Corpus Christi runs way above her 100
carload lots of cabbage this year and
will come nearer the hundred and a half
than the even hundred. This is not
bad for an unusually dry season such ns
this.
The coast country may not be so much
on corn and wine and oil. but the oil
is there for a certainty and the cabbage
ind potatoes and vegetables of all kinds
with the small fruits and berries are in
evidence.
San Antonio is gathering together her
youth beauty and innocence today for
her great Flower Battle. What would
the old San Jacinto heroes do if they
were alive to witness the celebration of
their valor.
Blessed are the memories that cluster
around the battle fields where the va-
lor of the decimated hosts of liberty
wrenched victory out of the jaws of
defeat and hurled the brutal conquerer
back.
Texas has a great deal to be thank
ml for. Her legislature lias adjourned
the Austin clam is not threatening des
truction with the spring rises San Ja
cinto day has come Howers are in pro-
fusion and the state has struck oil.
The answers in the Sunday papers to
suppositions questions evoked from tin.
depth of tiie reflectiveness of the writer
to show his smartness suggest that
there is a dearth of brain food at the
hash houses.
To keep moving is good advice to
tramps and the young men who are
hustling for a living but it is a little
out of place in Hie office of the real es-
tate man who has a long list of emp-
ties ou the slate.
The announcement a short time tfgo
that the great feudists in Kentucky had
buried the bullet seems only to have
Aren the ambition of a score of lesser
lights to pull their guns for a general
fusilade.
Great Britain is only common clay like
the rest of the inhabitants of the plan-
et. Even her sacred army circles arc
invaded by the man on the make who
patents the projectiles he is ordered to
report upon.
