Any information relative to Russia published by
the Pester-Lloyd must be accepted with reservation
That paper is the principal organ OF the Hungarian
Magyars who, though recOnciled with Austria since
the adoption of the duastic system, cannot forget
that Russian armies crushed the heroic efforts made By
Kossuth in 1910 to establish the independence OF
Hungary The statement Of the " PesterLlOyd" about
the alleged "enOrmous concentration OF Muscovte
troops on the Pruth line is exaggerated. just as the
recent report was untrue that Russia had proposed
to Rumana to exchange Bessaraba for the Dobrutcha
where the Cars soldiers would be in more favorable
position to pounce upon Bulgaria and begin the march
on to COnstantnople. Russia does not wish, ana Is
not financially in position, to disturb the peace OF
Europe, unless provoked by some movement Of Austria
and Bulgaria against the Turkish province OF
Macedonia and the harbOr Of SalOnca But Russia may
have considered It opportune to make some military
preparations, though not upon ".enOrmOus' scale,
In view of the agitation prevailing In the balkan
peninsula.
1t was rumored that Bulgaria would proclaim her
independence and crown Prince Ferdinand King on
September 49, by way OF reprisal against the Sultan,
who had obsnaely refused to grant the independence
frman to M.Grecof, Minister Of Prince Ferdinand
sent for that purpose to COnStantnope. The Gar,
who is the protector Of the orthodox people may be
colled upon any day to assist them in Bulgaria where
the Prime Minister Stamboulof, has lately ordered
the police 10 search tho house. at Sofia OF the Arch-
mandrite preate, Mgr. Mathodlns' upon the pir-
text of hunting for documents relative to political

GOOD ROADS.
JUDGE Won ROSENBERG HAS SOME
THING TO SAY ABOUT THEM.
How the County Can Secure Them at
Very Moderate COst--WOrk ON the
MontOpolis Line.

County Judge Won Rosenberg was
seen yesterday by a STATESMAN re-
porter and speaking OF road work in
the county he said:
awe have. completed three miles of
excellent macadamized road from the
Montopolis bridge in southeasterly
direction. The farmers down there
have materially aided the county by
furnishing teams and hands, and all
of last week they had sixteen teams at
work and we built 600 yards of road.
The road is eighteen feet wide with
the macadam and gravel about
eighteen inches thick in the center
and the work is first class in every re-
spect and will compare with turnpike
work anywhere. The road completed,
crosses all sand and black mud imme-
diately south OF the Montopolis bridge.
all the depressions and ravines are
bridged with substantial structures
md the total cost has not been ST. 900
a mile. | have told the farmers down
there if they will continue to Cooper
ate, then l would complete
the road to the Bastrop county line.
and | have the assurance Of Bastrop
county farmers that they will assist.
am satisfied that by working this
way that in u few years this county
will have over 100 miles of tirst-class
pixies. By the way, | have called your
attention to the character of work
done 0, the Montopoli bridge road
and have stated that it did not cost in
money over $1,000 a mile. Well, last
year this county, as shown by the
books, expended about $500 on the
county roads, and there is hit very
little if any more ROAD to show
for it than has been built
at Montopolis. l go upon the bust
ness theory that it is best and cheap
est to construct permanent roads
roads that with small expense
annually can pe kept up Tor all time,
and think it best to complete long
stretches. Wns re you ,merely bridge
over short bad places tie work is soon
: destroyed, and in a winter or two the
road is worse than il no work had been
done at all. You can see illustrations
of this out south OF town, on the Ave-
nue. and on Other roads. / want to
keep up the work, and hope the bust
ness men of Austin and the farmers
will cooperate. Businessmen should
go down and see what we have ac-
compliShed."
From all accounts Judge Won Ros-
enherg has had constructed some ex-
cellent road near the Montop,lis
bridge, and he intends to keep up the
work ii the people will cooperate as
they should

LET Us SETTLE 1T.

The state has notified Messrs.
Christian & Crooker that hereafter
they must pay rent due on lease OF
the old court house and square to the
state and not to the county author
tiles. from whom they leased the
property.
This demand is made upon an al
legged technicality.
When the city site, upon which
Austin now stands, was laid out the
state very properly retained control
of the streets and public squares. The
state could not do otherwise for the
streets and alleys and squares were
not for sale.
This reservation however was dis
tinctly for city and county purposes
and not state. The founders OF the
city were men of common sense and
recognized that a city could not exist
without streets and squares and parks
and they were provided. Where these
parks or squares were to be used by
the state for state buildings or other
purposes it was so designated upon
the original plot OF the city.
Such reservations could not be in
vaded by the city nor can the reserva-
lions donated for city and county
purposes be invaded by the State.
The building upon court hous
square was erected by the county and
is the property of the county and her
control over it and over the square
upon which it stands has never been
surrendered.
The state OF Texas has no more
light to take possession of a building
erected by the people of this county
upon land set aside for county pur
poses than she has to take possession
OF building in some other county
erected by the people of that county,
The sooner the question of jurisdic.
ton over the squares and parks and
streets of this city is settled in the
courts the better it will be for all con-.
cerned, and now is the opportunity to
settle it.

costs $33O,O00,000. Her navy carries
nearly 400 guns, and her army on

TO build more war ships and OF the
very best. The Italians would not
hurt us much on land. They could
not invade our territory, and the
worst damage they could do might be
the bombardment OF some o. our
coast cities-for if a war should arise
it will be fought with dynamite.
But from the tone of yesterdays
dispatches it is not probable the two

all on account OF two or three worth

the people of this and other countries
ought to have been killed on general

The clods grow mellow, and the forest hath

which the remains of Col. w. NJ. Mckee
have rested for ten years three miles north
of the city was broken into last night and
an effort made to secure the remains. The
iron gates of the vault were broken
down and the vandals attempted to
break into the coffin with pick, but failed
to accomplish their purposes, being inter
rupted in their work. There can be but
one therory about this matter, and il is that
the object of the men was
TO get the remains and hold them
for ransom. Col. Mckee left
large estate and his widow is now
q wealthy old lady who has ever had great
sollcitudc for the remains of her husband

fact no doubt reached the ears of those who
sought to profit by it. No clue to the par.
