You will see if war is declared,

the diplomatist observed "No Eu-

must fight Russia she is her only
enemy in Europe. ~ervi is disgust

| ventured to raise the question
whether in the event Of war, the
Turkish Government would consider
itself bound, if it WIRE moi in alliance
with England, to close the Bo+phorus
and the Dardanelles against us. The
reply was: Undoubtedly Turkey
cannot allow ships OF var to enter
the Black Sea, except in defence of
Turkish interests, and Al the same
time the Black Sea is Ru,sia's weak
point. But if Turkey became brlIi-

Swiftly as the swallows wings.

Counting the hours by golden sands,

What are you saying dear little tongue?

The Press.

The Manufacturers Record, of
Baltimore, in a recent article in re-
gard to the rapid growth and devel.
opment of the South, says of the
press:
Every dollar spent in building up
fist class local paper in town
will be returned many a fold, for
even if the money thus spent in ad.
vertising should not bring a direct
profit, it would be more than repaid
by the immense good that -four.
ishing paper necessarily accom-
plishes for the town in which it is
published. To say that a town is
judged by its papers is only to ssate
q truth that everybody knows.
Some may say that one paper is
naturally more pushing and enter
prising than another-very true; but
no paper can be enterprising unless
its business justifes, and the seem.
ing lack of enterprise in many coun.
try papers is often solely from the
lack of adequate fnancil means.
Our ideas as to dozens OF Southern
towns, that we have never seen,
are formed by their local papers,
and we imagine that, Judging SIM
ply by these papers, we can almost,
without mistake, name the town
whose business men are pushing
and energetic, and then; on the
other side, name those where enter
prise is almost unknown.
If the people of any Southern
town are anxious to see it's popula-
ton steadily increase, the value of
their property enhanced, and all
their business interests prosperous,
the first and most important step to
take is to furnish their local paper
with such support as will enable it's
publisher to furnish a thoroughly
live paper, and then pretty soon the
outside worldswill begin to hear of
the paper, and then of the town, and
presently they will begin to make
inquiries as to what kind of town
it is, as place of residence or for
business, and then if the place
really has good advantages, it has
started on the road to prosperity.
