any attempt to deny that the Province
OF PernambucO has Joined the Province
OF Rio Grande do Sui in declaring It's
independence. Great excitement pre-
walls at Rio de Janeiro and throughout
Brazil. 1t is reported that Marshal da
Fonseca has been informed that he is
suffering from disease which must soon
cause HIS death and that he has an
nounced his willingness to resign the
reins OF power. The German popula-
tion of Rio Grande do Sui is reported to
be organizing into armed bodies Of men
on the plan of the Dutch settlers of
South Africa and to be determined to de-
fend the independence OF their new
State.
Rio Grande do Sui is the sixth largest
province in Brazil, the other five being
Ceara, Pernambuco, Bahia, Rio de jan
eiro, Minas.Geraes, and San Paulo 1t
has an area of 81, 335 square miles, a
population of 564, 527, and is situated at
the extreme southeastern point Of Bra
I'll, bordering on the frontiers OF Uru-
quay. IL has coast line of 400 miles,
but not many ports of Importance, ow-
ing to the difficulty of navigation in
their harbors. Nevertheless 1t has con-
siderable commerce and promises to be-
come one of the most prosperous of all
the Brazilian provinces. 1t has valua-
BILE coal mines, important fisheries,
raises large herds of cattle and hand
some crops OF wheat, which is made into
-four in its own mills. The Italian col
onists produce 25, 900 pipes of wine an
nually. Wool is grown and cloth man
ufactured, and fine casslmeres from its
merinos are sold in Rio Janeiro.
The dispatches state that this province
is largely colonized by Germans, and
maintains an army of $4,000 men of
German origin. The statement, how
ever, is not altogether correct. A Ger
man colony OF 1875 persons was organized
at San Leopoldo by Pedro !. in 1924,
which has increased since that time to
over 10000. The dispatch, therefore,
must refer rather to the entire German
population than to the number in the
army, though IL is not improbable that
a liberal element of Germans or German
descendants are to be found in the ranks,
and that to this extent IL will be found
superior to the native forces when it is
called into action. Out of this colony
forty-three others have sprung In this
province, the members Of which are
largely engaged in agricultural pursuits,
the principal one of which is the culti-
walton of tobacco Their whole num-
Der, however, does not reach $4,000.
1t Will be seen from this general
sketch that in military strength and re-
sources Rio Grande do Sui is in posi-
tion to make ser Gus trouble for the die
tator. If the revolution breaks out in
other provinces, as now appears likely,
il is not impossible that he may meet
with fate akin to that Of Balmaceda,
so far at least as defeat is concerned.
The situation, indeed, is a deplorabe
one, but there appears to be no other so.

With such premier the republicans

Closely following the dissolution Of
Congress and the assumption of dictator

public of its own, to the Presidency Of
