Russia's Zemsky Zabor.

The zemsky zabor or land parlia- meut is not new institution. It was in a prosperous condition under the twc first Romanoffs, but Peter the Great neglected to convene it, and it fell into disuse. In the seventeenth century the early Romanoffs were ac- customed to issue a mandate to the governors O. the provinces to cause an election to be held of one or two rep resentatlves of certain classes named, the persons to be selected to be men of means and of enough intelligence to be able to state their wrongs and to indicate the policies they desired to have adopted. After election the dele gates selected proceeded to St. Peters, burg, where, after listening to an ad- dress from the throne, they proceeded to discuss, and to criticise govern mental policies, often asking for amendments, and even for action on other subjects.
 The fact that the zemslzy zabor is to be reconvened by the Emperor is at least a start in sane direction, even if it's powers be limited. Its powers will be increased in accordance with the trend of the ase-a trend that even stolid Russia feels.
 If the new zemsky zabor demands in season and out of season compul- sorry public education it will have de- manded nearly all that Russia is at present capable of The grand dukes and the bureaucrats, all headed by the Czar, have been engaged in a gigantic conspiracy against the masses in this matter, and the zemslxy zabor will cer- tainly stanu for puclic education. If it does not, it nay as well be abol- ished.
 The determination on the part of the ruling classes to keep the masses in ignorance has been maintained fully three hundred years, and a reversal of such wicked policy should be as thorough and widespread as the em pire itself

Ensley Railroad Facilities.

Did you know that Ensley Is one of the few cities in the country that has population of 12,0OO and seven railroad lines, and that has no passenger trains passing through it?" asked a citizen of the Steel City yesterday.
 Without a doubt Ensley has as fine railroad facilities as any town of it's size in the country. All ef the main lines operating in the Birmingham district have lines in the city, and most of the roads have freight depots, and the tonnage handled in this town will exceed that of any other city in the state to it's size.
 ct We never see passenger train and with the exception of the special cars of the officials of the several roads we never see a passenger coach.'
 The probabilities are that in the near future. however, passenger trains will be passing through our town I understand that the Southern railway is contempat- ing running a line from Mobile junction by way of Bessemer and Ensley to Bir- mingham. If this project is carried out l see no reason why the passenger traffic from this city and Bessemer would not be sufficient to insure the success of the service"
