The new ruler of Bulgaria styles
himself "Ferdinand, by grace of God
and the choice of the people, prince,
#t&" Unfortunately in the Balkan
peninsula, the words "by the grace of
the czar" would give a much firmer
appearance of solidity and perma-
nenoe to the title. Not being able to
■Mure this, however, Ferdinand has
doubtless done the best he could uo-
dar the circumstances.
While Ferdinand is claiming to be
"by the grace of God, prince of Bui
garia," they are télling another ver
|| jrfon of how it happened. According
" to this story the three Bulgarian
deputies who set out to séleota prince
got no fuather than Vienna, when
came under the influence of the
Duchess Clementine of Saxe Coburg,
and accompanied by he* emissaries
Ihey fi inally agreed on Ferdinand in a
bur" at the Orpheum, a Viennese
Concert hall, where they debated the
liea of Europe and watohod the
"arreat American female athlete, Miss
/' swing by the teeth
a flying trapese. There is not
difference after all in the

KATKOPF TORYISM.
St. Cere, relates that the
', the great Russiau
was summoned to Gatchi
the casar imprisons himself,
t6 Alexander's question,
"Nothing aire! We
lis which moat not ring;
>h must not go off, and
which muat not apeak."
, there waa no
who dared apeak,
There ia not
czar aaintelli
to which
Ka^
be
waa poasible. He despaired oí the
Schlav's power to originate, and he
to import the culture of
fpeiaUy of Germany,
France and England. The Russian
Panalavist denied that what waa fit
for Franks, Teutona and Anglo
Saxqna waá fit for Sohlavs. He de
nied that the culture of Teutonio and
Latin Europe Waa elevating, and ar
guod that the great mart of the Rue
■t n people would be the worse for a
aystem founded on the principles, re
Kgioua and political, of Voltaire, Kant,
Roeeeau and Hobbea—philoeophera
who give no hope in Futurity, and
hothns force men to be diacon
inted and aeditious unless they are
well off in this life. Against them
waa aet up the orthodoxy and the
Greek churob. The Panalavist argued
that culture does not necessarily make
men moral, and going further, that
the culture of Western Europe would
inevitably demoralize the Schlav. If
he haa neither wdaltb, liberty nor
happinesa in this world, the church
teaches him that this life is
of small importance, and the
Russian Tory, therefore, ral
lied to the support of religion and
appealed to patriotism with the prom-
ise of raoe glory in a union of all the
Schlavs, constituting the greatest
power on earth. The Russian Tory
thus stood for Suhlavic unity as the
German T°ry does for Teutonic, and
as the English does for imperial. The
politios of Europe are the same at
bottom all over Europe, and there
has been little or no fundamental
chance in them since Charlemagne
unified the Teutons. Charlemagne's
idea is Bismarck's idea, and KatkofPa
as well; and Charlemagne's method
is still in vogue. Bisnwk would take
Holland and Germanize the Dutch
with the sword if be could, just as
Charlemagne forced the logic of
Teutonio unity and Christianity on
the freedom loving and Odin-wor-
shipping Saxons, Tbe radical change
is in tbe method of reply, for the
Russian opponent of Panslavism an
swers with Herbart Spencer in one
hand and dynamito in the other.
¿ 4TESIAK WELLS.
If somo competent means of irriga
tion is not provided soon in Texas-
some means by which our fields are
relieved in a measure from their de
pendence upon the treacherous
clouds, we may be compelled after-
while to conclude that tbe original
uses to whioh Texas waB put were tbe
right ones—that is, cow culture,
horse culture, sheep culture, with
roasting oars in season, corn for
bread evéry four years, and the like.
In other woirds, we must make of it
purely and only a stock country.
This is a hard thing to say, but when
we only have soaking rains once in
four, if lucky, or if not specially
favored, once in about seven
years, wbat oIbo can we say ?
Luckily, however, there is a
means by which this difficulty
may be measureably overcome, and
that is by digging artesian wells
Now, to do this on auytbing liko a
scale commensurate with the demand
and with the circumstances surround
ing the case, we will bavo to discover
somo means by which it can be done
cheapor than now, or failiog that,
means must be provided by which
people unable to dig themselves may
be assisted. Our plan would be this:
Let there be a syndicate formed of
say ten millions of dollars. Let the
state also loan its credit in tbe work.
Let the wells be dug, irrigating
ditches made upon sciontiffo princi
pies, and let a certain share of tbe
resulting crops be set apart for tbe
liquidation of interest and principal
until tbe improvement is paid for. In
this way we could have every field in
Texas irrigated. Think what the re
suit would be. Think how enor
mously values would be increased,
how production would be increased.
Tbe state herself could do the work
on the simple increase of taxable val
ues which would accrue, wore tho
fieldsjof Texas rendered independent
of thfj natura;) rainfall in tho way that
we sijgRcst.'
There cannot be the slightest doubt
about the sufficiency of the subter-
reanan water stores. There is ample
and to spare, and besides the plenti
fulness of water supplied by this arti
ficial means would, as it always does,
increase the rainfall, and every sue
ceeding year would diminish the neo
essity for the well. It is a big matter
and none but the Napoleons of action
and of thought need grapple with the
, however, and there
and immortal as
. money and men to put the en
terprise on foot. Were this plan once
adopted there would be ten millions
of people in Texas within the next
ten years, and Texas would get back
dollars In place of tbe dime «be
would loan her credit for.
