Siberia, coupled as its name is with stories of Russian barbarity, is not tbo barren, terrible lend of limitless deserts which fiction and the drama liavo pictured pic-tured it. The buildiu of the trans- Siberian railway and the extension ot lines along; the northern frontier of China, will greatly change the entire drama of civilization. The railroad from Vladivostock to the Ural mountains will bring that great Russian naval station within fourteen days' journey of St. Petersburg, and along this route stations will rapidly grow into towns and offer opportunities for new and striking development. de-velopment. Russia's enterprise stimulates that of China, not only as a matter of competitive com-petitive ambition, but for strategic reasons. The railways now being surveyed sur-veyed and completed with the Celestial empire are numerous, and to this end many foreign engineers are employed. Soldiers and convicts are largely employed em-ployed as workmen, thus cheapening tha cost of labor as far as possible.
