Democratic Nominating Convention.
TUESDAY AUGUST o 1902.
Mr. Hawley is not iu favor with
the executive contingent of: his
party.
The progressive element appears
to be in the minority in San Anto-
nio by the way the bond issne was
snowed under.
The resnlte of most of the oil
boring experiments over the state
outside of the Beaumont and Sour
Lake fields go to show that it is
just well not to get too exciteil
and enthused over oil indications
until the pushers gush.
K. li. K. Green is no longer
"out of politics" it seems although
he was very much out of it a few
years back when senator Hanna
so effectually assisted him out. A
Urn; time Mr. Green remarked that
he would take pleasure in return-
ing .he favor to Mr. Hanna some
day. If the present Roosevelt
wave holds out until 1904 the
Texas railroad magnate may have
the opportunity he once hoped for.
But there is no certainty yet as to
which way the republican cat is
going to jump when that fateful
year arrives.
The Jewish people of New York
are justly incensed over the abuse
and indignities put upon them on
the solemu occasion of the funeral
of Rabbi Joseph who was the
most honored and exalted Hebrew
in the United States. The occur-
rence reflects small credit upon
New York City and especially
upon the emplo3'es ot the printing
press coinpnny who were respons-
ible for it. The amount of race
and religious prejudice displayed
by this outbreak is surprision ou
the part of a people who are so
quick to condemn race prejudice
when instances occur in other sec-
tions. Under its Mexican News depart-
ment speaking of the sugar in-
dustry in Mexico the San Antonio
Express says :
The sugar industry hss been
expanding rapidly since the above
compilation and especially in the
State of Siualoa where it has
reached wonderful proportions
within the last few mouths. The
State of Tamaulipas which conta-
ins the finest sugar lauds in the
world towit: The Rio Grande
alluvial bottom lands has not
advauced a bit ; ou the contrary
has retroceded as there is not a
single plantation of any propor-
tions within the domains of said
State at the present writing.
The statement concerning the
alluvial land of the Rio Grande
valley is quite true it is. capable
of producing the fiuest sugar and
here the cane once planted does
not require replanting oftenerthan
every seven or eight years. Three
is probably no section in Mexico
better adapted for sugar produc-
tion than that which lies on the
lower Rio Grande. One of the
first results of the completion of
the Natioual railroad between
Matamoros aud Monterey will
surely be the development of large
sugar rice and cotton plantations
in Northern Tamaulipas.
GEN. SMITJSHOCKED.
Learned of His Retirement Ou
Reaching San Francisco.
Sau Francisco Cal. Aug. 1.
Standing on the bridge of the
Thomas eagerly waiting- with the
ship's captain for a glimpse of his
native shore General Jacob Smith
tried by court martial for having
ordered the Island of Samar trans-
formed into a howling wilderness
was doomed this moruing to "first
learn that the President had retired
him from the active list.
The pilot boat which met the
Thomas just outside the heads at
2 o'clock this morning brought to
General Smith the first news of
the President's actio". In the
light of a biunacle lamp the vet
eran read the message apprising
him of his fate. An hour later the
dawn came and with it the sight
of laud but General Smiih had
retired to his cabin where with his
wife aud chief aide. Lieutenant
J. H. Shields cf the Twelfth
Infantry he discussed the outcome
of the long ordeal through which
he had passed.
Six hours later when the Thomas
reached the quarantine station in
the harbor Major Duval of the
transport service boarded the ship
with his sscreyPry and met both
General Sfih and Lieutenant
Shields dwha door of the Gener-
al's cabin. A sealed document
from the War Department was
handed General Smith. It con-
tained the official notification of
Presideuc Roosevelt's action aud
upon reading it General Smith re-
tired overcome with emotion.
General Smith was not seen again
until the United' States custom
house tender the Heartley was
ready to take the Geueial aud his
party ashore. He denied himself
to ill interviewers who were met
byijienteuaut Shields.
a iCKS NOT TARIFF.
The ikin Antooio Express takes
the H. John Scott to task because
be misquoted some poetry.
That's a IittleThiug aud we don't

tariff stopping the shipment of
cattle from Mexico when it was
not the tariff a all only ticks
Laredo Times.
