The people of Arizona, according to the latest

IL he can be allowed TO use his discretion in deal

Mexican raids, on account probably of the uu-
settled condition of affairs in the neghboring
republic. Rowing bands of Mexicans, il is re-

korses, cattle and mules, capturing wapon
trains and occasionally committing murders

But seriously, Judge Davis is looking to the

now, it seems, too, as if he might be gratfied.
The Miligan decision shows him to be fit man

for the memory of McArdle is too fresh in their
minds. Then he would not catch any labor
votes, for his known antagonism to the eight

pose that Judge Davis's acquiescence in one, to

is to the principles that Judge Davis rendered a
decision upon. 1t was declared that no title or
right was acquired by a settler on the public
lands until the land was paid for and a patent
issued. The decision reversed every point which
had guarded the toiliug settler, and left him at
the mercy of spectators. OBSERVER.

WORCESTER.
TUESDAY. MARCH 80, 1919

The New York Tribune expOunds and lays
down the law concerning the proposed "Cincin-
matt convention" lmeaning the Missouri mass
meeting, with that supreme air of authority,
which is peculiar to dictators. Iii were the or
ganizer and owner OF this Missouri movement
against the republican party, it could not as
sumo a loftier tone The Tribune is impelled to
dictate, by a law of its nature. 1t declares very
positively, that the Missouri mass meeting at
Cincinnati will make nominations, that the
nominees will be republicans, and that the order
and methods of proceeding will be what it pre-
scribes. But the most audacious utterance of
this oracle comes out as follows: "The conyen-
ton to be held at Cincinnati, on the first day of
MAY, is 10 be a republican convention" This is
a most impudent and outrageous Justification.
The Missourians who called the Cincinnati meet
ing have not been republicans for nearly two
years; some of them never were republicans
They are no more republicans than Frank P.

A curious case, hardly to be matched in its
elements of mystery and romance, is soon to
be tried in the English courts. The plaintiff is
Turk about twenty-five years Of age, who calls
himself Mustapha Djehad Bey, and claims to
be the son of the late Kibrisli Pacha, envoy of
Turkey to the court of st. James. His story
is that in 1S47 the wife of Kibrisi Pacha bore
him son, the present claimant. In the next
year the father was appointed TO England, and
while he was absent the infant was dangerously
i'll. The mother, fearing that if the child should
die her husband would take another wife, pro-
cured by some means child which she pretend
ed was her own. The first born recovered, but
not until after the father had been informed of
the addition to his family. A female servant
and eunuch were privy to the deceit, and used
the power which their knowledge gave them to
tyrannize over the wife until she could bear it
no longer, and confded her troubles to KibrsIfs
man of business, who undertook to find way
out of them. His methods were essentially
Turkish and little out of date even in Turkey.
The woman disappeared and the eunuch was
found soon after, smothered in his bath
Madam Kibrisli was tried for the murder but
escaped conviction. Her husband came home
however, while this unpleasant romance was in
process Of disentanglement, aud, disguised with
her duplicity and the consequent scandal d-
-ivorced his wife. She, therefore, moved as she
now says, by desire for revenge, declared that
Mustapha, the supposed first born, had also
been bought or borrowed. Her assertion was
credited, and Mustapha was turned adrift. He
has since had on his own account adventures va
ried and romantic enough for two or three lives,
having been mental servant in Egypt, papal
zouaye, a lay brother of the convent of St. La.
zare, and heaven knows what beside Kibrisli
Pacha died in England last September, and
Mnstapha is now in London to establish his
birth and assert his title to his fathers property.
II he should fail in this, he ought to be able to
derive handsome income from his story by a
partnership with some clever author. The law
which gives the right of property in a nara
tive to the man who has invented it, should give
a similar right TO the man who has created the
story by painfully living through all its incl
dents,

letter from Athens in the Madgeburg Ca
zette says that the Greek capital is now almost
blockaded by brigands. "NO one dares to 20
thousand PAGES out of the town without an es-
cort, and even then the undertaking is a very
dangerous one, for the brigands are concealed
behind rocks and in bushes so that the whole of
the escort might be shot down before their
hlding-places could be discovered. The chief of
these brigands is man named Spanos, who has
been notorious for his daring deeds during the
last thirty years; and il may be said that he
holds the destines of Greece in his hands, for
no progress is possible so long as the present
state OF things exists. The insecurity Of prop
erty prevents the development of agriculture.
No one dares to invest capital in land whose
produce is sure TO be annexed by the brgands
Nearly every day bands Of peasants are brought
into Athens who have been compelled by the
brigands to furnish them with provisions ETC.
and as the lives OF these unfortunate people are
threatened when they do not comply with such
acquisitions, the government only Furnishes
them if they neglect 10 give information to the
authorities Half of the Greek army has been
in pursuit Of Spanos for months; but he and his
band, which consists Of only seven men, are
still close TO Athens, and il is even rumored that
he has on several occasions entered the city with
the object Of capturing some high parsonage,
whom he would afterwards lberate only on the
condition Of his being given a large ransom and
free pardon. The sheperds and the peasants
are obliged for their own security to warn the
brigands Of the approach of the troops on such
occasions. This is done according to well-de-
veloped plan; they either throw stones with
hierogyphcs upon them in places agreed upon
beforehand, or lay down sticks on which they
cut certain marks.
