thing that has heretofore been conceived
by the imperious and relentless Caesar
Of Germany. lie proposes a revision of
the constitution providing permanent
military budget, thus placing in his
hands unrestricted and absolute power
with respect to the enormous military
establishment of the empire. Knowing
full well that this design will not find
favor in the Reichstag. he has perfected
a plan, it is believed, to secure Its ratiii-
cation by the council Of Princes. II Is
apparently n very bold game to play,
even for bismarck, who considers his
authority to rest upon sheer physical
force and mastery Of will. If the plot Is
carried through, he can not reasonably
expect popular submission to this cen
Trailing tendency without n sharp pro-
test. The rancor and animositles sure
to be aroused will give him trouble at
the outset. The German Liberals are
implacably hostile TO Bismarckian ar
rogance and ambition that aim to exalt
the crown and Cypress the people.
There is n possibility Of n momentous
struggle resulting from the lofty disre-
gard shown by the iron Chancellor for
the representative branch Of the Gov
ernment.n

THE Gulf Is eating into Galveston
Island, and measures are suggested to
resist its enoroachment. The Island Of
Galveston fought its way to the surface
from out the gulf and bay. and In Its
early days there were many sand hills
on the gulf side, which broke the force
Of the waves, but as the city grew these
hills and mounds were cut down until
now there is no resistance whatever,
and the natural consequence, the island
is gradually being washed into the gulf,

from him the splendor that surrounded

If the son could be President. But his
abilities are equal to the Vice-Presidency
