The butchering of the French and Ger
man consuls at Salonica, ~ reported In
our dispatches of yesterday, will doubt
less provoke the prompt interference of
the great powers of Europe in Turkish
affairs. Too much blood and treasure
has already been expended in support
ing the eiiete rule of Turkish Sultans,
and tho civilization of the world would
be the better for it, were that anomaly
IN the map Of Europe expunged, The
debt of Turkey to England is enormous
and the present distracted state of af
fairs seemst to annihilate the remotest
prospect OF settlement.
The city of Salonica itself, or Salanik,
rs the Turks call it, is memorably con-
nected with the worlds history About
$40 b. Z. it was enlarged by Cassander
OF Macedon, who named il Thessalonica,
after his wife, the daughter of Phillip
We have elided the prefix and the city
is now known on the maps as Salonica
Xerxes rested his army there, and
Cicero took refuge in that city during
his exile. The apostle Paul visited the
city in A. d, so and addressed epistles
to its church. In 800 Theodosius com.
mitted frighthl massacre of the citi.
Gems, and in 1922 the Greeks were ter
ribly butchered by the Turks in the
streets OF the city. When captured by
the Saracens in 9O4 its population
amounted to 10000, but it numbers to-
day only about 10000 people, 10000 of
whom are Jews, with like number of
Greeks. The place is situated at the
head OF the Gulf of Salonica, and is
noted for the number and beauty of its
mosques and churches.

OUR OPINION.

If, M the Hot Springs Telegraph says,
Governor Coke, of Texas, is II man Of
broad views" he forgot himself in his
late message to the Legislature of his
State. II is the most mdcmocratic,
ccntral-power document we ever read
emanating from II proposed Democratic
Governor, When the Democrats OF Tex
as were being driven from the polls by
the most outrageous election laws, and
robbed and run over, Coke was holding
fat office at tho hands of Radicalism
and not until daylight began to illumn-
ate the State dare he proclaim his De-
mocracy We don't go one cent ON fair
weather Democrats The South has too
many of this kind. If there are class
of beings in the South for whom we
have the most supreme contempt, it IL
that class who served in the Coutcder-
ate army, and after the close of the war
sympathized with and held office under
a Radical administration at the very
time it was doing all in its power to de
stroy every Southern State. We may
expect to be robbed i'm times of great
social commotion, by our enemies but
when our own household turns against
us, may the Lord deliver Little Rock
Herald.
| We think the HraWS structures are
based upon Il misrepresentation OF facts
and are not wiliully made, therefore We
correct them.
Governor Coke has never been Other
than u consistent Democrat, and al
though he may have been appointed
Judge under Jack Hamilton's Republic
can administration, il was expressly
understood before he accepted the trust
rendered him, that there was no chang,
in his political status, and that he onl,
accepted the position as Democrat
| 1t is matter of history in Toxas tina
his record rs u Democrat is pure an,
spotless. Governor Coke has his fault
which we have not hesitated to mention
but he cannot be charged with being
renegade and an apostate.

WE have been shown the root of Il
cotton stalk from Mr.. Worthington',
farm, some six miles from Dallas, which
had begun to sprout the second year
having quite mass of leaves bursting
from the earth. We were aware that
in the West Indies cotton was biennial
and triennial, and that in India and
Egypt 1t lasts from six to ten years, but
we believe this Is the first instance which
has come under our observation ofbicn-
NAL cotton this far North, The exccp-
tionably mild winter may have occn-
stoned this second years growth. We
donot know but that much good would
result from having one planting do fol
two years, and would be pleased to hear
of Mr., Worthingtons success in that di
rection,

Pruning Grape Vines.

The summer pruning of grape vines
cansists in removing the small shoots
which show by their size and lack of
vigor that they viii not make strong
canes, such as supply The buds of the
wood that is to produce the next years
crop. pnt in 10 case viii the fruit be
benefited by pruning away large
portion Of the vigorous new canes. If
you think your vines are overloaded
clip out a portion Of the punches row
while they are small. Nor will re-
moving the leaves later in the season,
''to let in the SUM-" do anything but
mischief, as grapes exposed to the
burning rays of the sun are not has
tened to maturity at all, and are much
injured in quality. If one believes all
about grapes chat IS published i'll the
papers, from men who know but very
little on this subject, he viii be apt to
destroy his vines in a few years. The
general rule has been laid down by
good writers to pinch of the ends of
canes 10 within two leaves Of the fruit.
If thus be done TO every cane there
would be no wood left for the next
seasons fruit. You must leave some
of the longest canes untouched for
this purpose; then You may cut back
the smaller canes 10 within two or
three leaves OF the grapes, ii you think
bost;-- but / consider close summer
pruning a good deal like taking a
quart or two of mans blood to Gill
vigorate him." Prune sparingly.
