BRAZIL'S TROUBLES.

The Republic OF Brazil, that sprung
into existence so Unexpectedly about
about two years ago, has already re-
generated into dictatorship, the con-
dition usual in Spanish-American coun-
tries. The supporters of the imperial
regime have been working to over
throw the republican system, it seems,
and bring about a restoration of kingly
rule. Whether they succeed or not,
there is bound to be an unsettled con-
dition of affairs in that country for
years, or until the old friends and re-
tainers of the ex-emperor shall have
passed away. Poor old Dom Pedro,
feeble and decrepid with age, and tot
tering on the verge of the grave, says
that if it is the will of the Brazilians to
restore the monarchy, he will venture
to cross the ocean and ascend the
throne once more to do what he can
for his beloved people. Good old man!
He means well of course. But he would
better stick to his prayers and his rosa
ries. Brazil is no place for him now,
even though he were called to take up
the scepter once more. That land is
sure to be for many years hotbed Of
sedition, intrigue and political turbu-
lence with which none but the hardest
and ablest can contend

be so, and later reports leave little reason
to doubt it, Tarrant county is at last get
ting into a position to realize and enjoy the
benefits of good roads, such as she has
never known before. It will mean a great
deal for the farmers and it will mean a
great deal for Fort Worth. Truck farms
will become plentiful where they are now
scarce, and the truck farmers will be able
to reach the market with SO little inconven-
fence at all times that IT, will find their
employment far more profitable than ever
before, even while selling their products at
prices which they could not before afford
Good Ioais will be a great advantage all

should be provided with them. The ex-
pense is a small matter in comparison with
the benefits to be derived.

was directed to be commenced at the
mouth of the Miami river where it
empties into the Ohio and run due
north to the lake. II is asserted that
varies to the east twelve miles. 1t is
200 miles long and this would give an
average width of six miles and change
1900 square miles from the state of In
diana to Ohio, including Union City,
Fort Wayne and Richmond. The facts
were first called to the attention of the
government by Governor Campbell,
and DIR. Mendenhall, superintendent OF
of the coast survey, is now examining
not. Another question arises in the
event it should be found that this line
had been wrongly located and extended
twelve miles east of the correct line.
Indiana was to extend from this line
westward certain number of miles.
and ii it should acquire the territory
on its western line which it would lose
on its eastern, it would take in part
of the city of Chicago, the great stock
yards and the site where the fair
ground buildings are being erected. 1t
is not, however, probable that any
change will be made. The government
made mistake in its survey and it
would seem that it ought to correct it,
but it is not at all probable that it will
do so.
