The Russian attack upon the Afghan
troops on the river Kushk is made
the occasion for warlike movements on
the part of the British governments and
it is very evident that the disposition of
that government is to precipitate war
unless Russia retires to ito original po.
sition and remains in the future on its
own side of the line. The Russians claim
the attack was compulsory on their
part. as the Afehans were crowding
them so closely that they
must strike back or abandon
their position. That they gave the
enemy 9 vigorous drubbinR is evident
from the account Of the conflict. In
their retreat the Afghans carried away
as prisoners number of British officers,
who had been spectators of the battle,
but had not participated on either side.
There is no doubt but England feels
affronted by this entire transaction.
Gladstone announces that the Russians
have been guilty Of an uniostitiable at
tack upon the Afghan forces and Eng
land has demanded an explana-
tion. The leading English news.
papers are warliks in their attitude
and it is believed they fairly represent
the sentiment Of the people. England
Is alarmed over the constantly increas-
ing strength of Russia. 1t foresess an
inevitable conflict between the two
powers and is anxious to precipitate .
crisis before Russia becomes still more
powerful in its military and naval de-
partments. Russia's policy 10 to delay

though it is now in excellent condition
the struggle. Should war Of the
promised magnitude occur it would be
the most sanguinary struggle the world
ever witnessed. During the years of
general peace which have succeeded the
American and Franco.P .Prussian wars.
there have been great improvements in
implements and agents for the destruc.
tion Of human life. War will be new
experience with these inventions in use.

Relative to the theft Of the Scotland
ballot box which contained the ballots
cast at the county seat election, the Citl-
zen says:
The votes were counted. the poll books
completed and signed and placed to.
gether with the ballots in the ballot box,
which was left in charge Of Asa Covell,
ono OF the judges, who states that he
locked the box after the counting Was
completed and placed it in his private
room which sdjoins the Office in which
the polls were held. On Thursday morn
ing. when it was desired to send the poll
books, box, ETC., to the county clerk and
chairman of tho board, as prescribed by
Law, they could not be found. Thus the
matter stands. A high handed Outrage
has been committed in our midst. Tho
question ct present is. to whom do cir.
cumstanees point as the perpetrators ?
At this time the public may draw its
own conclusions, but sharper scoundrels
