By WAY of London.

LONDON, Oct ls-The Constantinople
correspondent OF The Standard says: The
Turkish papers in announcing the consent
to the Armenian reforms stated that the
sultan has decided To introduce reforms
in all provinces of the empire, beginning
with Anatolia. The reforms comprise an
increase and reorganization of the gen
darmerie and OF the police forces, and the
amelioration Of the administrative and ia.
dicial branches Of the service.
An editorial In The Times this morning
says: 1t will probably be too much to
expect the extension of the Armenian re-
forms TO other portions OF the Turkish
empire, yet iothing would more power
fvlly consolidate the sultans real au-
thority.
The Daily News Uiberal organ), com
menting on the same subject, presumes
that the powers have accepted a Mussul-
man, instead Of a Christian, high commits
sioner. II So says the Daily News, IL will
be severe disappointment to Armenia's
best friends. IL is evident that the con-
cert Of the powers bas been more apparent
than real.
The Chronicles Constantinople cor
respondent says; The sultan has so feared
exasperating Mussulmans by consenting
to the reforms that the minister was
Obliged 10 imrloro him to sign the docu-
ment. fear that English opinion will be
greatly disappointed when the terms Of
the reform scheme become known. But
nothing better could be obtained without
the appearance Of tho British feet in the
Dardanclles, which would have involved
the instant disruption of the triple entente
(between England, Russia and France),
and probably a Russian occupation of
Armenia.
Sir Philip Curre. therefore, has done
the best possible without causing a serious
breach between England and Russia This
temporary solution, however. will not save
the sultan from an outbreak OF dangerous
anti-dynastic feeling, OF which the sultan
will probably be the victim.
The Chronicle believes that the British
fleet will remain at Lemnos, in the Egean
sea, which is about 80 miles from the
mouth of the Dardnnelles, until adequate
guarantees for the execution of the Arme-
uian reforms have been given.

The newspapers are bringing daily
reports of the restitution and want
among the farmers Of vast sections OF
the West. The same has been true
from year to year in the past with
reference to parts Of several of the
Western States.
To avert starvation and death. aid
is solicited, and most of these Cult
States are responding literally with
brcadstuf, clothing, etc.
In contrast with such oft repeated
restitution Of the West. it can be
truthfulIy stated that such destitu-
ton has never been known in these
Gulf States, except in river bottoms
subject to overflow and innundation

This contrast is all the more signi.

B00K Trust ~ ALABAMA.
\ Combination With the Book Dealers Of
the State To Rob the People Leg
isIatiye Investigation
Probable.

Cor. Courier-Journal
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. 20.-The
Legislature OF Alabama is likely to get
seriously mixed up with the American
Book Company, widely known as the
School Book Trust, or the indications
are all wrong. This State has no sta
tute regarding school books, and the
Book Trust, taking advantage Of the
situation, has been imposing upon the
people most 0utrageOusly, but Il day Of
reckoning is coming, and that very
speedily.
Seine time ago this great monopoly
formed a combination with the Uni
versity Publishing Company Of New
York, and lIanscll aud Brother of
New Orleans. This entirely removed
these popular Southern corporations
from the rank Of competitors. The
Book Trust then proceeding to make a
deal with the Alabama Books Sellers
Association, containing in its menl-
bership the most prominent book firms
in the State. 1t was then IN beautiful
shape to squeeze the people as it
pleased, and it has been doing so in a
manner almost beyond belief. school
books that can be purchased in other
States for 10 and SO cents. retail in the
cities Of Alabama at $l.25 and 81 80,
and in the country at even higher
prices; and this mOnstrous combine
supplies 30 per cent. of the books
used in the public sch0ols.
For several years repeated attempts
have been made by the friends of edu-
cation to induce the State Legislature
to pass some measure that would re-
licre the people of this b%nrdenS0mc
School-book tax, but the Book Trust
and the book-dealers would not have
it so. Through skillful lobbying. every
effort in that line has been killed. and
the eX0rbitant prices have continued.
In the present Legislature a local
SchoUl-bOOk bill was recently intro
duced. Not being acceptable to the
Book Trust, because it would open up
competition, it was vigorously jumped
upon. Some Of the lobbists, in thcil
zeal to serve the trust, We're indiscrect.
In consequence of this, the true in.
Wardness OF the opposition leaked out.
When the bill came up IN the Senate
they could get only one mar to vot;
against it.
This Knockout was bad enough in
itself, but there is still greater trouble
ahead. Some Of the members Of the
Legislature are now fully informed o
the infamous purpose Of the Book
Trust and dealers to block legislation
and it is morally certain they will b,
able to command very few vote,
against the general book bill now il
the Legislature: and their compact i.
likely to become the subject of lcgis
lativc investigation. No special inter
est even successfully resisted the vii
OF an injured people. The citizens o
Alabama have been wronged by thu
School Book Trust, and they know it
and they are now dem2ndinr and will
obtain from the Legislature a proper
law for their relief and protection
The members of this General Assem-
bly, will not te controlled by the pait
lobbyists of Il corrupt combination.
