"IHE SICk NAN"

The Turkish atrocities upon Armeni-
ans ought To make the " Eastern
Question" prominent in Europe once
more. That Turkey is no at once dis
membered serves to sharply draw at
tention 10 the money-lending spirit that
controls European politics.
Nothing maintains Turkey but the
desire to squeeze interest for the bond
holders, in England chiefly. And 1t is
Great Britain that is most concerned in
keeping the Turkish tax-gatherers at
work.
England sucks money out of the veins
of every country it deals with. If there
is money to be had, all other considera-
tions are put aside.
Turkey is an anomaly among nations.
1t is neither Independent nor "A subject;
but it is under control Of the British
foreign Office. From its situation il
ought 10 be nation of Importance and
intelligence. 1t is probable that such
nation would plant itself on the
Bosphorus IL Eng, land would permit.
Even Russia wouid do vastly better thsn
is done under the suzeralnty OF Eg-
land. BuI England insists upon savagery
because 1t brings casn to the strong boxes
OF her money-ienders.
Ii ali the other European nations were
not daubed with the same pitch there
might be some hope that the slaughter
of eight or ten thousand Armenians
might arouse the conscience of Europe to
some sort of action. AS 1t is there seems
no ground for hope that any notice will
be taken of the incident" The sun
speakable Turk" will remain unspoken
to, except when he shows signs of neg
lecting to pay interest to England.

presented, and but about 500, 700, 900
gold 10 use for that purpose.
This is, in rough outline, the con-
dition Of the treasury at present.
1t is proposed to better it slightly
by the new loan of $4,000 900,
and then it is understood the President
has scheme for the reorganization OF
the national finances, in the working out
of which he thinks il of no special
importance whether new bank notes are
made redeemable in 'gold coin" or
COIN!
The Democrats seem wholly incapable
of either understanding the financial
condition of the treasury or doing any
thing TO remedy it. The tariff law they
have enacted has, so far, provenT cause
of loss to the treasury rather than gain,
despite the calculations that were made
showing that it would bring more
revenue.
The Democrats promised to bring in
bill for the reformation of the finances
as soon as the bill repeating the silver
purchase act was passed. They haven't
done it, and they probably will not doit.
The President may discourse upon the
national finances, in his spongy
and ponderous fashion, but he knows
well enough that nothing can come OF
it but chance for HIM to "consecrate'
himself once more TO cause hopelessly
doomed TO nothingness at the start.
Whatever the Democrats attempt
comes to nothing but ruin for their
party; which is the best result of their
labors possible. There is safety for the
country in Democratic incompetency,
but just now the country seems to be
pretty safe, and a relief from the long
series of blundering failures will be ap-
preciated.

DEMOCRATIC FINANCIERING.

When the present Democratic admin

The treasury gained $4,000, 900 by Che

$4,000, 900 more from New York

antagonism was expressed in the Con-
cord mob.
Why was it expressed in this fashion? {?
Why was any mob permitted to rule

1t is not question of right or wrong

question of civic decency and civic self
