"Gen Butlars letter reminds Senator
Dawes Of one of Buffers previous
gubernatorial campaigns, when he
was promising everything to every
body. Some one asked Butler If he
was not giving out more promises
than he could redeem. His reply was
oh, can renew what l cant redeem
of them" Yet the same Dawes came
into this same Buffers district four
years ago and did all he could to get
him elected to Congress.

Russia and Turkey.

Now that there is chatter of diplo-
macy over the conditions Of peace be-
tween Russia and Turkey, it is worth
while to revert to the circumstances IN
der which the war was opened. The
protocol, which was signed by the great
powers in April, simply gave the Porte
another chance to accept terms which it
had already rejected. 1t left Russian
and Turk exactly where they were at
the close of the conference. 1t advised
certain measures of administrative re-
form and pledged the great powers not
to coerce Turkey, but merely to consid-
CT the subject again, if the suggestions
should be disregarded Russia. how

the conditions of the Treaty of Paris,
and the Cars declaration of war con-
tanned no assurance that he would alb
stain from territorial conquest. The
Chancellor's circular to the powers de-
clared that the peaceful development OF
Russia was seriously impeded by toe
disorders in European Turkey, and that
war had become necessary. The Rus
sian papers now contend that national
development will be impossible, If, after
an unstable peace preparations must be
made for new struggle. The war N ust

DemetriuS DulgariS.

Demetrius Bulgaris, Chief of the Greek
Revolutionary Society, is dead. He was
born in 1901 in the island of Hydra, of
which his father was Governor In 1888
he was appointed Minister, during the
regency Of Ohio, and subsequently, sat
in the National Assembly. When the
Crimean war broke out he was made
President of the Council. From this
position OF trust he was compelled to re-
sign in 1859 OIL account of the stubborn
resistance of the King to the liberal
measures demanded by the people, but
in 1862, when the revolution broke out,
he was recalled to power and became
President of the Provisional Govern
ment. The triumvirate of BuIgaris
Canaris, and Rouphos ordered an cleo
ton of a King by universal suffrage, and
Prince Alfred, of England, was chosen
by an immense majority. Neither En-
gland. France, nor Russia, however,
would permit any of their Princes to &C
cept the throne, and Prince George, OF
Denmark, was finally elected. Bulgaris
was appointed President of the Council
and Minister of the Interior, but IN 1865
again resigned when the King refused to
dissolve OF prorogue the Chambers. Dur
ing the present Russo Turkish war he
has been prominent, as the leader OF the
revolutionary party, which aims to &C.
quire for Greece the provinces of Mace

This is almost equal to the new mile
age reported at corresponding tiff1e fof
the year 1876. 1t is notable fact, how
ever, that the cost of construction and
6duipMent Ae3er ruled so low as during
the past year, and also that railways
were never before built so nearly for the
cash cost and with SO little fictitious cap
ital, 80 that the aggregate of capital
invested in the 1900 or so miles OF new
road is far less than that represented in
corresponding increase OF mileage in
former years. To show the remarkable
growth of the narrow-gauge system in
augurated only half q dozen years ago
iii this country, the Age has given in its
summary the figures for wide-gauge"
Including, in two or three instances,
roads OF five feet) and narrow
gauge separately. No less than
IS per cent of the roads in num-
Der, and IS per cent. in mileage, were
of the latter class-three-feet gauge-ex-
cept In one or two cases, where three
feet six inches was used, and in another,
where the novel width of two feet was
chosen. These narroW-gauge roads have
all been constructed very cheaply, and in
many cases where it would have been
difficult or impossible to raise the money
for even a light standard gauge road.
In some cases q mistake has been com
mitted in varying f-om the usual stand
aid OF the country, but in may others
the three-feet gauge is equal to all pos
sible demands that will be made upon il,
and as the roads are intended solely to
supply limited local needs, where the
people have no expectation of or ambi-
ton for building parts Of 81 great
"through" system, they are well adapted
to their localities. I....

The Texas Border.

Gov. Hubbard has written three-co
umn letter to President Hayes on border
affairs. He goes into the details of the
causes Of the Mexican raids, and gives
the history of the same for the last
twenty years, including Cortinas' cap
ture of Brownsville in 1859. The Gov
ernor's specific charges are:
l. 1t has been depredatory war.
Z. Custom-House officials have been muir
dered, Custom Houses taken and robbed Post
offices robbed and burned, hundreds of citizens
killed and some tortured. William McMahon,
for instance, had his legs cut off and was forced
to walk on the stumps. Murdoch was chained.
harrow placed on him, and he was burned
while in his house, within five miles of
Corpus Christi. Women have been made pris-
oners and subjectedto treatment too horrible to
mention.
8. million dollars worth CT property has
been taken frCm Texas owners, carried into
Mexico, and sold in the public markets
4. Mexico has furnished an asylum for the
robbers and place OF deposit for their stoler
goods.
5. The Mexican Government has been noti-
fed many times by ours of the existence of
these evils, but it has not restrained it's citi-
zeIs, and it refu ses to permit the United States
to break up the hostile bands which commit
the atrocities, and has declared an attempt to
do SO a cause for war.
6. Mexico has refused to execute the extra

ing the jail OF Storr county, releasing prison
ers therefrom, and wantonly wounding our
peace officers, and by turning loose fugitives
under Indictment for murder in Texas and
regularly demanded by our Commissioner of
Extradition.
Z. She has afforded an asylum to Indians.
and permitted them to use her territory to set
on foot expeditions to invade the territory of
the United States and to wage a savage war
fare upon the people of Texas, including within
its scope every age and sex. Children have
been captured LII Texas, carried into Mexico
and held as slaves.
Gov. Hubbard asserts that Texas does
not want war, but simply protection from
Mexican violence. He charges that the
San ElIzario mob who shot Howard,
Mcbride and Atkinson to death, was
composed largely of Mexican citizens.
The Governor recites the horrible mas
sacre, and says, Mexico shsu make
amends for the crimes committed by her
