Editor Hope Pioneer:
Our town was thrown into stale of great
excitement few days ago by our town clerk
walking pompousy into Brown Il Passmore's =
store with an old Justices code of Illinois un-
der one arm and a package of Clipper alman-
acs under the other and demanding Of w. L.
Brown, ex-town clerk, his report and all papers
pertaining to the Office that he had in his DOS
session. Mr. Brown refused to give up the
papers, which caused our town clerk to wax
warm and finally become very angry, and slap
ping the old code down upon the counter le
cried in loud voice II demand of you in the
name Of the law the delivery Of those papers,"
just then our heavy weight champion, Charles
Passlnore, came to tho rescue and proceeded,
in business-like manner to wear out a five
dollar pair Of cowhides OIL said town clerk as
he darted out the back door, and as he slowly
wonded his way up the hill to the school house
he looked sadly over his shoulder at the place
where the No. IL came in contact with his
Sunday pants and remarked: ''Surey the way
OF the transgressor is hard. Soy.

RUss1A's REAL PURPOSE,
Why War Between England and Ru,
sfa is Inevitable.

The fol.sowing dispatch is a special to tho
Minneapolis Tribune from Washington:
Washington 4splomatlc and military circles
| continues to centeI>~ in the news from Russia
and England. Thsr,> is universal feeling
here that war is inevitably, and to this Is added
the belief that England is foolish not to declare
war at once, as Russia is takirg rapid strides
toward arming her forces and preparing for
war on grand scale. The con2ict which
must come cannot long be delayed Snd the
hight will, in the opinion Of those best able to
judge bo the greatest military event Of the nine
teenth century. Whilc tho boundary line be-
tween Turkestan and Afghanistan is the os-
tenslDie bone of contention 1t is not this divid-
Ing line that will be fought over A naval off,
Ger who has devoted a great deal Of study to
European political questions, in conversation
with your correspondent upon this subject to-
day, said: Russia will never bs content until
England is severely thrashed. The great Rus
sian empire, while SO vast as to be almost be-
yond control in northern Europe and northern
Asia, is not large enough for its rulers in south
ern Asia aud southern Europe. With vast
sea coast IN the uninviting regions Of the arctic,
the Russians are without a single seaport on
the Mediterranean, and while the czar aud his
advisors are anxious to encroach upon Eng
lands Indian possessions, they are far more
anxious to secure a port In this sea. Until an
outlet is afforded for Russian shipping directly
into the Mediterranean without the necessity
OF passing through the Dardanelles, Russia
will be restless and dscontented and always
ready to find pretext to fight the plucky little
island which gives her 30 much trouble. Since
the Crimean war ended, when Russia was
worsted after a terrible conflict with the allied
forcos Of England, France and Turkey, the
resentment of the Russians toward England
has never died out. 1t has slumbered at times
but has never been entirely effaced. II Russia
could secure Smyrna she would be content,
and While the war is likely to open on the
Afglrn frontier, 1t will not cease there. The
whole OF Europe will be involved, and blood
will flow like water. The United States will
be fortunate indeed il wo are not drawn into
tho contest before peace is declared,n

around and see the marvellous change that has
taken place in three short years, we can hardly
credit our senses. What was then an unlimited
waste Of prairie, with scarcely building to be
seen, has been transposed into well-settled
farming country, with substantial and CON-
Portable hemes dotting the country in every di-

all the comforts aud luxuries of civilization,
