THE SITUATION IN AUSTRIA.
Reports of exciting times come
from Austria. The bitter discussions
and riotous manifestations in the
reichstrath have continued till the
scenes partake more of the football
field than legislative councils. A
proposal by the German opposition
to impeach the ministers for ' violat
ing their powers by the issuance of
the decree authorizing the official
use of the Czech language in Bohe
mia, failed by the very" narrow vote
of 177 to 171, In speaking upon
this proposal, the prime minister,
Count Bodeni, against whom the bit
terest feeling is manifest, announced
that the cabinet would not retire,
even if the impeachment resolutions
were passed. .
The situation is made the more
serious by the intense interest taken
in the matter by the" Germans across
the border. Most violent speeches
have been made and letters written
affirming that the matter is one affect
ing the whole German people, and
that Austria, being historically a
German power, and its constitution
having been based on the assumption
that the prime influence would con
tinue to be German, for such a
change to be made as would imply
the effacing of German influence was
a matter to call for the most serious
attention of all Germans.
It is also stated that there is quite
a strong movement in Austria for a
reunion of German-Austria with
Germany in case the increased influ
ence of the Czechs continues.
In order to understand the situa
tion it is to lie remembered that the
Germans of Austria form only about
one-third of the entire population of
the empire. Of the nearly 24,000,
000 inhabitants, 8,500,000 are Ger
mans, 5,500,009 Czechs, 3,700,000
Poles, 3,100,000 Ruthenians (Little
Russians), 1,800,000 Slovenes, Croa
tians and Servians, while 675,000 are
Italians. The Czechs, Ruthenians,
Slovenes, etc., me all Slavic by race,
but not so closely united as to make
them a compact body. The Czechs
alone have been able to present a
united political front. The German
element is chiefly in Tyrol, Styria,
upper Austria, on the borders of Ba
varia, and lower Austria, in the vi
cinity of Vienna, although there is a
considerable element throughout
Bohemia and Moravia. . There the
Czechs are predominant, and it is
there that the special difficulty arises.
The Germans look upon all Stays and
speak of them as barbarians, and
hence arises the bitterness of the con
test. Hungary is somewhat more
favorably situated. The Magyars,
numbering 7,500,000 out of 17,500,
000, are compact, but are surrounded
by a fringe of Germans, Ruthenians,
Croatians and Rumanians. These
latter, in close sympathy with their
fellows of Bumania proper, watch
with great interest any national de
velopments in the empire.
The ,'. peculiar government must
also be kept in mind. Francis Joseph
is emperor of Austria and king of
Hungary. Austria has its parliament
or reichstrath; Hungary its parlia
ment or reichstag ; while each prov
ince has its one local landtag. For
imperial interests, as foreign affairs,
war, finance, there is another parlia
ment called the delegations. Each
parliament has its own ministry.
The head of the delegations is Count
Goluchowskj', minister of foreign
Affairs.. Count Badeni is prime min
ister, ofj Austria, and Count Banffy
prime minister of Hungary. The
imperial expenses are apportioned
between the two sections by the Ans
gleich, an agreement which runs for
periods of ten years. The present
Ausgleich terminates in December of
this year, and the question of its re
newal is being used by the Germans
to force the Austrian ministry to
withdraw fron the position taken in
regard to the use of the Czech lan
guage in Bohemia.- "
One theory , advanced in regard to
foot-ball is that the students need
just such a sport to discipline their
animal spirits, and that formerly
many found a safety valve in chop
ping wood and gardening to pay ex
penses at college. But it doos not
appear that the old time students
flourished the ax and hoe so vigor
ously a- to produce fatal results.
The best thing laised in the South
lately is the quarantines. Active
sanitary work ' this winter will pre
vent the return of the epidemic next
year.
Thousands are Trying It,
In order to prove - the great merit of
Ely's Cream Balm, the most effective cure
for Catarrh and Cold in Head, we have pre
pared a generous trial size for 10 cents.
Get it of your druggist or send 10 cents to
ELY BROS., 58 Warren St.', N. Y. City.
I suffered from catarrh of the worst kind
ever since a boy, and I never hoped for
cure, but Ely's Cream Balm seems to do
even that. ' Many acquaintances have used
it with excellent .results. Oscar Ostium,
45 Warren Ave. , Chicago, 111. .
Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged
core for catarrh and contains no cocaine,
mercury- nor any" injurious drug.'. Price,
0 cents.' At druggists, or by mail.
See the Cnrysantliemutns.
The public is invited to come and see
the chrysanthemums. They are now in
fall bloom, and this U the best time to
get your plants. The ' lily, byacipthe,
tnlip, early and late narcissus and jon
quil bulba are now" ready to plant for
spring and winter ' blooming. Now is
the time to get pansy plants for early
spring blooming. '
