I'llOUIlKSiS OAT THK T.WlFt' Illt.U The progress mndo on the tnilff bill In the senate seems to wnrrnnt the expecta tion that It will PIJ-S : that body caily In July , If not by the end of the current flscnl year , but It must be borne In mind that the schedules over which the hard est light will be made are yet to be con- sldcicd. The sugar duties nnd the wool nnd woolen duties will undoubtedly bo subject1) of prolonged debate , wlillo the tea and hide duties and the Incieased taxes on beer and tobacco will cause n vlgoions contest. The sugar schedule will bo taken up this weel. If Senator Aldiich Is well enough to bo In the senate , or Its consid eration may go on without him , as many eiiatois aie anxious to have this per plexing and troublesome fo.ituie of the bill disposed of It l.s said that the re publicans of the finance committee will piobably submit : v modification of the schedule nnd they certainly will if they aio disposed to give any heed to the general sentiment legnidlng it in well Infoinu'd quiii lure. It Is hardly possible that the stliedule as lopoiled can pass the Semite ami It seems to be absolutely ceitain ( lint It would not be accepted by the house. The conviction Is geneial tlmt the sugar duties as ntiangi-d by the senate finance committee ttie not only highly favoiablo to the Sugar tnist" , but would fall to yield the icveniii' esti mated. The ad valoiem duty Is espe cially objectionable , as affoidlng an op- poitunlty to the Impoiters of sugar to cheat the govoinment , as they have been doing for the past three jeais , tluough undervaluation. It would enable the ImporlPiA to cut down the lovomie. of the government to the lowest possible point by bilnging In the cheapest siig.ns at an ad valoiem duly and then to tuin around and squeeze the gie.Uest amount out of the Ameilcaii people by complete contiol over the inaiket. Hut while this is a fatal objection to the senate sugar schedule , It Is not the only objection , so that theto will have to be u jjeueial modllleatlon. In regaid to wool there will probably be a compromise between the duties of Hie house bill and the senate bill. The speech of .Senator Mantle a few days ago undoubtedly voiced the geneial s"ii- tlment of the wool pioduceis. They aio not satlsik'd with the Kites piopobed by the senate finance committee and while they would piefer the house tales th\\ will piob.ibly be content with a com piomlse and it Is pietty sale to say that such will be the outcome of the contest over thl.s schedule. The pie posed duty on hides may also have to be settled by compiomlse , while as to th duty on tea and the Inc. KM soil taxes on beer and tobacco , they aie moie than likely to be lejected , theie being con sidoiable lepubllcan opposition to thorn in the .senate and moie among the 10- piibllc.ins of the house. It will be seen , theiefoie , that the ex ceptionally rapid pi OKI ess that lias been made with the t.uiir b'll In the senate does not ncivssai llr indicate a contlnu am-e of this expedition. However , the opposition having thus far made good the assHi.iiifo ghen thai it would not by olwtiin-live faeties delay the measure and would confine itself to fair and tea- sonable discussion , theie Is leason to expect that the countiy will hive a new taiill' law caily in the next li.scal year , which begins July 1. , TO HOI l'bH A 11 ID Adtl' .

There Is no run son to doubt that Sagasta and his adhi'ients are cntlruly slnceie In tlielr di'tfho to Institute n moie liberal political system In the Spanish col- oitlt-M.

New York Tribune Everybody will rejoice to learn that nn era cf unexampled pro perlt ) Is getting ready to dawn upon the state of Texas Forewarning of It comes In a dispatch from San Antonio , where General Paul Vandmoort , who Is described ns "the well known populist leader , " is now engaged In painting the first ruddy streaks of it on a wide horlron Gen- "ral Vandervoort h.u evolved a scheme for colonizing Ihousands of populists on unoc- cuiiled lands In various parts of the state The movement is to be on a grand scale , and will icsult If the big tand owners will only throw open tlielr holdings and join ln ll In Increasing Iho population of the state bv at Icatt 2.000,000 more people duiing the next llvo jeaia. And the newcomers will be a class of cltbcns of which. General Vander- voort says the state "will have reason to be proud" in token of the earnestness and sincerity of the movement the geneial an nounces that ex-Governor Walto of Colorado , of bloody bridles fame , Is already on the giound making airaniementa for n large number of settlers , whom ! ie will bilng with liim , and that Mr. Debs of Illinois who col lided with the geneial government a few years ago ai.d suffered brief but fluent mar- tjrdom in jail on that account , Is arranging to stait the movement In Chicago IJoth these Illustrious persons , it is hardly neces sary to say , are actuated solely by phllan- tliiLplc motives. Of Debs the dispatch says ho "will never so into another mi Ike , but will Hoik to give people a chance to get out from under the yoke of oppression of debt , which jtar b > year Is growing heavier and heavier upon them , bj giving them an opportunity to make homes for themselves In the glorious coast country. " Jly which we understand that the opportunity will bo given ttf people who are unable to Kettle up in Chicago to settle down In Texas. If we may trust tradition , Texas was oilglnally settled on that plan. It is a great oclicmo. Great for Texas , \vhlch la about to bo populated , and no lea great tor ths other sections of the country whicli It depopulates In General Vandci voort's opinion , the feeling in the latter over the threatened exodus Is Intense and pro found Since the tide of eontlment begun to turn toward Texas , IIP says the west and noitlivsest have begun to bo alaimed.
