GREECE AND TURKEY.

The dispatches OF yesterday plainly
indicate fixed determination on the
part OF Greece to provoke hostilities with
Turkey. a war between these two ma
tions-provided foreign powers observed
strict neutrality-could have but one
result. As regards both the number and
the quality oftroops, the Hellenic kingdom
is immensely overmatched. Compared
with what he was, the Turk is looked upon
as moribund, but the sheer weight of his
huge frame would squeeze the life out of
his puny antagonist In Greece, includ-
ing the lately coded section OF Thessaly,
there are only about two million inhabi-
tants, and the regular army, on peace
footing, musters but 1900 men. 1t has,
indeed, been computed by the aggressive
party in Athens that all OF the reserves,
comprehending the so.called territorial
army or home guard, would repre-
sent at least 100000 effective soldiers.
But even ii so large body could be pro-
vided with arms and ammunition by
Government whose fiscal resources have
SO long been overtaxed, the greater part
Of them, being raw recruits, could never
stand against the Turkish veterans. The
small nucleus OF trained troops has itself
seen no service in actual warfare, and its
steadiness is wholly matter OF conjec-
ture. There is, on the other hand, no
doubt about the military efficiency OF
the levies which the Porte has constantly
been making since the outbreak Of
revolution in Roumelia, and which are
now stationed in Northern Thessaly and
Macedonia, The Turkish artilerist has
hardly any superior in Europe, and
the mettle OF the Turkish infantry was
impressively attested in the war with
Russia, OF the 100000 soldiers by this
time massed upon the Greek frontier
nearly all are members OF the active
army, or veterans who have served their
time with the colors Collision with
force OF such volume and character bodies
ruin TO the weak Hellenic forces, for de-
feat in the field may be followed by in
vasion OF central Greece and the capture
of Athens.

THE STRIKE AND THE BOYCOTT.

Henry George, the author OF Progress
and Poverty, has been interviewed by
the Detroit Tribune on the labor ques-
ton, and is reported as saying: "The
labor question has come to stay. These
strikes are the blind beginnings of a
movement that must become stronger
and more widespread. / do not think
much can be accomplished by the work
ing classes on present lines The strike
and the boycott are methods OF main
strength and stupidity, but all these
movements are having great educa-
tional effect, and, before long, the work,
ing men will see that the only method 0.
effecting permanent conditions is by
carrying their movement into politics.
Strike and boycott can do temporary
good at present, but they do not 60 to
general conditions. The dangerous man
to labor organizations is the outside man
the man who can find nothing to do.
So long as labor seems drug, and thou
sands OF men are vainly seeking work at
any price whatever, all that labor organ.
izations can do in the way OF raising
wages must be done, so TO speak, against
the tide

THE MORMON VOTE IN IDAHO.

No party can survive that affiliates with
the Mormon element. The Mormons are
outlaws, and their influence will be detri-
mental to any party that attempts to pack
them. The citizens of Idaho are anxiously
awaiting to see il the Democrats will insert
an anti-Mormon plank in their platform.
If they arc wise they will, Their chief
organ, published in Boise City, claims that
Mormonism will not be an issue in the com
ing campaign. BY 80 doing it casts reilec-
tions upon the party to its detriment The
Mormon question is a vital one, and the
people of Idaho are determined to see it
settled at the earliest opportunity.-Boi
Republican.
The DEMOCRAT seldom finds any politi-
cal matter in Republican paper which
it can endorse, but the above contains
too much truth to be gainsaid. 1t is true
that no party can OF ought to survive that
affiliates or truckles to the polygamous
where the Mormons are sufficiently
numerous to hold the balance OF power,
provided no issue is made upon the ques-
ton, it perhaps might be tempting to
politicians OF both parties TO make over
lures TO the leaders who control the
Mormon masses to secure that vote. 1t
is a twoedged sword, however, and ii
any inducements are held out in that
direction, il known to the people, it results
in greater loss than gain. The Mormon
question is by far the most import
ant local issue in Idaho, and neither
party can afford to ignore it. We
do not believe that the Democrats
have any disposition to invite defeat by
such a course. 1t is well-known that
the Mormons have no politics outside
their Church. Where they are strong
enough, as in Utah, they ask no iavors
of either party at the local elections, but
run their regular Church tickets and
elect them. In Idaho they are always
willing to make terms with either party
and will support the one which will con-
cede to them the most fayors or immun-
ity. The Democrats are strong enough
in that Territory to win the fight this fall
without the aid OF the Mormon vote, but
the support OF the latter, acquired by con-
cessions to that element, or even by ig-
noring the question in their plat
form, will and should result in inglori-
Gus defeat. Principle and policy both
forbid the pursuance OF such dastardly
course.

SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.

That the resignation OF Secretary Man
ming is in the hands OF the President APP
pears 10 be generally conceded. 1t is,
moreover, currently reported, that his
successor will be New York man, who
will follow the fina ancial policy inaugu-
rated by Mr. Manning.
The President has lately exhibited in.
dications OF receding from his position on
the silver question, and it WAS hoped and
expected that he would avail himself OF
the first opportunity offered to fall into
line with the majority OF the party which
elected him, and the financial plank OF
the platform to which he is pledged.
We shall not believe until the appoint
nent is made, confirming the re-
ports that il is true. The res
ignation OF Secretary Manning will
furnish the best opportunity that could
be offered for the President to gracefully
right himself, and without entailing the
necessity of any embarrassing explain
