RUSSIA'S ON-CREEPING ALLY.
Thug stands the gate of Cennnny:
From Memel on the north to some-
where near Mlawa on the south a
wide gate but strongly guarded.
Within the next few weeks we shall
know whether the road to Berlin Is
here or through Gulitla and Silesia
( Via Cracow and Breslau. Old battle
ground all ot It tragic and glorious
with traditions of death and victory
its earth fat with the bodies of the
slain its echoes familiar with the
voice of cannon. A hundred years
ago It aaw too the prowess of the
great ally of Russia who broke Na-
poleon who comes again now In these
grey days of September the Russian
winter.
And att bis moment the men who
are pouring down the railways to re-
inforce Rennenkampf are men to
wbom the bitterness of the snow Is
a native clime. The Slberlnns have
been mobilized. Perceval Gibbon In
Collier's.
The new turn of affairs In Mexico
may bring on the most serious crlxls
that country has known since the
overthrow of the Madero government
Villa and Carranza will doubtless con-
tinue the struggle for supremacy
both want the United States troops
withdrawn from Vera Cruz and
neither side will guarantee protection
to Americans. An attack on General
Kunstnn at any time would create no
surprise. It the storm breaks the
United ' States will either have to
withdraw her troops or send large re-
inforcements and tuke charge of the
entire situation.
The Eagle has contended that the
"cash system" would enable the mer-
chants to sell twenty per cent cheaper
than under the old credit system and
we have no reason to change our
views. They are now advertising ten
per cent discount from actual prices
to secure cash trade. We believe If
the system were perfected enabling
them to buy for cash making a big
paving there reduce bookkeeping to
a minimum save' co1l4cfc s' time 'and
eliminate bad accounts and slow ac-
. counts with which they have hereto-
fore contended they could easily sell
for twenty per cent less. And at the
same time make juxt as mm h money
conduct a safe biiHlnens and a fnr
. 1
more satisfactory business. The sys
tem would save the consumer one-
fifth of all his living expenses; In
other words every five years he
would save a year. Certainly this Is
a consideration great enough to Justi-
fy the effort to make the change.
There never was a time In the past
when the distress of a class either
from pestilence or financial misfor-
tune such as Is now affecting the cot-
ton farmers of the South met with
such ready response. The dreamer
who has long preached the natural
kinship of the race Is Just now coming
Into his own. We are Just now awak-
ening to the fact that an "Injury to
1 one Is the concern of all." Corpus
ChrlBtl Democrat.
Respectfully referred to The Bryan
Eagle". Austin American.
An "injury to one may be the con-
cern of all" and there may be a
"natural kinship of the race" but this
Vtoplnn dream that something wilt
happen "Congress will act" or In
some way or somehow relief will be
furnished 1s largely the trouble with
this country now. We've got a Nation
of leaners Instead of people working
out their 'own salvation and standing
on their own bottoms.
Those extra smokestacks to break
Bryan's skyline cannot be secured un-
til conditions are readjusted. That
creamery proposition however Inaug-
urated by the Commercial Club Is
easily within our reach' and should
not be allowed to fall. True the plan
rails for only a modest beginning
but it will provide another avenuo
of revenue for our farmers that will
be a great help to them. They need
every futility possible that will help
them to get away from cotton and
adopt diversification.
"Never" declares a war correspond-
ent "has there been such bloodletting
as has occurred during Germany's
bBttlo to reach the English Channel."
Some bloodletting to be sure but did
this correspondent ever see the heart
of Cuto Sells bleeding for the poor In-
dians? Houston Post.
Colonel Bailey of the Houston Po'.U
says the reason farmers will not ac
cept the advice handed them by the
papers Is because they know that as
soon as they take It they will be
handed another tank full and they
dm't want to get foundered.
Thursday and Friday will be the
big days In Bryan. Those are the
dates for our agricultural and live
stock exhibit at the court bouse and
none should miss it. It will be an
exhibit that Would be a credit to any
county In Texas. 1
Lincoln Beachy completed his loop-the-loop
engagement at the Dallas
fair and the funeral was again post-
poned. Vaccinating the modern girl where
It won't show Is getting to be quite
a problem. Blanco Courier.
Tut! tut!
The ensh system would enable
every fellow to keep his business
ahead of him instead of behind him.
POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
Life may be a grind but grinding
sharpens things.
Hope Is tomorrow's veneer over to-
day's disappointment.
A woman always wonders why a
man makes love to her and so do
other women.
Marriage Isn't a failure if the con-
tracting parties have two heads four
bands and one heart.
A youth always wants to marry a
pretty girl because Ills parents want
him to marry a sensible one.
One kind of a danger signal is the
kick a woman gives her husband un-
der the table when there Is company
for dinner.
Beyond a doubt the telephone has
conferred more benefils upon man-
kind than all the political orators that
ever talked through their hats. .
'LONG LONG AGO.
Old friend of mine you were dear to
my heart .
Long long ago long ago.
Little did we think of ft time we
should part
Ixwig long ago long ago.
Hand clasped In hand through the
world we would go
Down our old untrodden path the wild
- weeds growl
Creat was the love 'twlxt us; bitter
was the smart;
Old friend of mine long ago.
Patient watch kept for yoit many
many a day' (
Low? long ago long ago.
Waited and wept for you far far
away
Ixmg. long ago long ago.
Merry came each May-tide ' green
leaves would sturt;
Never came my old friend back to my
heart.
Lonely I went on my weary weary
. way
Old friend of mlno long ago.
' '
Oft as I muso al the shadow nightfall
Over the dear Long Ago
Borne on tears arises the dark pall.
Fallen on my heart long ago.
Love Is not dead though we wander
apart;
How I could clasp you old friend to
my heart! 1
Barriers He between us but God
knoweth all
Old friend of mine long ago.

Volcano.
(Br Associated PrtM.)
Naples Nov. J. Mount Vesuvius is
again in eruption and inhabitants In

alarmed. On Sunday special prayers
were made and prof essions went to
favored shrines as a repetition of the
disaster of 1906 is feared.

Vesuvius occurred In the spring of
1906 when about 500 persons were
killed and fiO.ooo rendered homeless.
