THE BELGIUM REVOLUTION
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

which they sacked amidst the widest
enthusiasm
The revolution was in full swing.
After four days fighting the Dutch
troops left Brussels.
The BeigianS rose IN a body, and IN
six weeks time were il possession of
pretty nearly the whole country. The
augurated the Belgian constitution,
modelled largely on that of Great Brit
ain, and in June, 1881, elected Leopold
OF SaXe-Coburg king
A most interesting little country in
many ways is Belgium, especially in
the great matter of economics. The
problem of problems, that of the en-
means of subsistence, is forging to the
front in Belgium as it is nowhere else
on earth
BeIgium's area is 1873 square miles;
the area of Texas is $4,000 square
miles In other words, il would be
possible to lay 25 Belgiums down upon
the soil of Texas. And yet there are
European kingdom as there are in the
great Lone Star state-6,S0O,00 600 as
against 100000
It is no wonder that economics is
the one great question with the Bel
gians. They are face to face with the
gravest of all problems-"How shall
we liver This little country is a hui
man beehive, and the question of sub
sistence is q vital one, overshadowinS
all others.
It is said by those who are best &C
that the little country is liable at any
moment TO show the rest of the world
some very startling developments in
social theory and practice.

MORRIS ANNOUNCES
WILL FILE CONTEST
Alleges Illegaity in Poll
Tax Payments and the
Voting of Nexicans.

Alleging among other things that
there was iuegality in paying the
poll taxes of a large majority OF Next
cans. that there was viva voce voting
of the Mexicans in violation of the
laws, and that he received majority
of votes cast for candidate for cher
justice of the Sth court of civil ap-
peals, Judge +. @. Morris stated Mon

actually cast for judge Harper and
myself in this district said judge
Morris 7 carried every county OF
the II counties outside of FL Paso
county. except Terrell and Pecos- In
Terrell there was a tie vote and judge
Harper carried PecOs by majority or
IS. In e. Paso he is credited by the
count and returns with a majority OF
I347. This made an apparent ma
jority for judge Harper. on the face
of the returns in the entire district,
of $40 votes. But I shall show in the
contest that his alleged majority was
less than 800, and that all over this
consisted of the ballots of MeXicans,
who did not vote at all on this office,
but whose ballots were marked for
judge Harper on the statement of the
voter that he wished to vote for the
ring ticket. or Joe Escajeda and his
companions. or for the anti ring ticket.
or Alderete and his companions
My contest in FL PasO county is
limited to precincts No. l, ,, 8. 4, 8. Z,
IS. IS. and 20. which are the large
Mexican boxes. Judge Harper re-
ceived S66 of his majority in the first

Inevitable and thorough
When, in 1915, the Vienna congress
decreed that the South or old Spanish
Netherlands were to be Joined to Hol-
land, 10 form the kingdom OF the
United Netherlands under the sorer-
sau, IL violated a law that is as rigid
and incorporating as that which
rolls the worlds, and II was not strange
that the decree failed TO work
For IS years they managed to keep
the sham kingdom a-going, when, on
the day given above, IL went all TO
pieces like the wonderful one-horse
EVERYWHERE blood is thicker than
water" and the Dutchmen and the
Fleming could not hitch except in the
tug of war
The Belgians claimed that the Dutch
king failed to treat them fairly, and,
whether the claim was true or false,
the fact of the radical difference in
blood and belief would not down, and
after worrying along with the mock
arrangement for Is years, the Belg1ans
got up on the morning OF the 24th OF
August in the frame of mind that
boded no good to Dutch Williams gov
eminent.
The spark fell and the next day the
explosion came On the 25th the
Theater de Ia Monnae at Brussels, and
was received with paroxysm OF JOY
Thousands outside the theater caught
up the air, and, translating their feel
ing into action, rushed away to the
houses of the chief Oronge minister,

1t is generally believed that war

Second, neither Of the helligerent

Loan is Refused.
Bulgaria was disappointed recently
in trying 10 raise even small loan in
Paris, while Turkey has been endeav.
oring both in New York and Paris to
borrow money, but up to the present
without success. The financial re.
sources Of the other states concerned
are very limited Little is likely ID

lntil some decisive action has been
