st. Louis Republican: Russia
and Austria, though ostensibly Ia
boring to keep the peace IN the
East, are really anxious for more
war between ServIa and Bulgaria,
with the chances of Greece and
Turkey being drawn in. If war
occurs, it will surely end by the big
fish eating up the little ones; that
is, Russia and Austria will divide
the spOils by taking what they
want of Servia and Bulgaria. These
mighty robbers are simply bIding
their time for wholesale plumber of
weaker neighbors.

The question is sometimes ask
ed, What about the Brazos Valley
railroad? The answer is, it re-
mains to be built. A railway from
Columbus or LAGRANGE to Bren-
ham and thence to independence
and up the Brazos valley to either
Cause or Hearne would open to
Brennan an entirely new country
that has no direct railway connec-
ton and would increase the bust
ness of the town not less than fifty
and perhaps one hundred per cent.
The country to be traversed is rich
and tolerably we'll settled up with
thrifty farmers. If the merchants
and property owners of Brennan
expect to increase the trade they
must do something to bring it
here. A narrow gauge railway
will do it.

The Kansas papers are indulg-
ing IN some pardonable congratu-
lations over the present situation
in that state as compared with
what it was in 1875. In the latter
year the population was 527,742;
now 1t is 1861 62. In assessed
valuation, in number of bushels of
wheat and corn produced and cat
tie raised, and railroads built the
last ten years show an increase Of
from 100 to 200 per cent. The
number OF acres under cultivation
in 1875 were 4,749,90l, Wnilo in
1885 there were la,0ll ,333. One
of tho most remarkable things
about this growth is the fact that
it has been mado largely In the
western part OF the state, which
ten years ago was considered q
desert waste unfit for agriculture.
