Turks at the Old Business.
The life Of an Armenian in the presence
Of those who make that prayer is of no
more value than the life of summer in
sect The sultan of Turkey sits on a
throne impersonating that brigandago and
assassination. At this time all civilized
nations arc in horror at the attempts Of
that AlOhammodan government to destroy
all the Christians of Armenia. [ hear
somebody talking as though some new
thing were happening, and that the Turk
ish government had taken q now role Of
tragedy on the stage Of nations. No, mol
She Is at the same old business. Over
looking her diabOlism of other centuries,
we come down to our century to find that
in 1929 the Turkish government slew So
600 anti Moslems, and in 1850 she slow
10000, and IN 1860 she slow 1 GOO, ard in
1876 she slew 10, coo. Anything short Of
the slaughter Of thousands of human bo-
ings does not put enough red vino into
her cup of determination to make il worth
quatiing. Nor is this the only time she
has promised reform. IN the presence Of
the warships at the mouth Of the Darda-
nelles she has promised the civilized ma
tions of the earth that she would stop her
butcheries, and the international and
hemisphere farce has been enacted of be-
lieving what she says, when all the past
ought to persuade us that she is only paus
ing in her atrocities to put nations off the
track and then resume the work Of death.
In 1920 Turkey, in treaty with Russia,
promised to alleviate the condition Of
Christians but the promise was broken.
In 1889 the then sultan promised protec-
ton of life and property without reference
to religion, and the promise was broken.
In 1874, at the demand Of an English min
lister plenipotentiary, the sultan declared,
after the public execution of an Armenian
at COnstantinOple, that no such death pen
atty should again bo inflicted, and the
promise was broken. In 1850, at the de-
mand of foreign nations, the Turkish gov
promised protection to Protes-
tants, but to this day the PrOtestants at
Stamboul are not allowed TO build q
church, although they have the funds
ready, and the Greek Professionals, who
have a church, are not permitted to wor-
ship in it. In 1856, after the Crimean
war, Turkey promised that no one should
be hindered in the exercise Of tho religion
he professed, and that promise has been
broken. In 1873, at the memorable treaty
Of Berlin, Turkey promised religious lib
erty to all her subjects in every part Of the
Ottoman empire, and the promise was
broken. Not once in all the centuries has
the Turkish government Kept her promise
Of mercy. So far from any improvement
the condition of the Armenians has be-
come worse and worse year by year, and
al the promises the Turkish government
now makes are only a gaining of time by
which she is making preparation for tho (
complete determination of Christianity
rom her borders.

Blot out nrohammedanisln.


Why after all the national and oonti-
mental and hemispheric lying on the part
Of the Turkish government, do not the
warships Of Europe ride up as close as is
possible to the palaces Of Constantinople
and blow that accused government to
atoms? In the namo Of the eternal God let
the nuisance Of the ages be wiped off the
face of the earth! Down to the perdition
from which it smoked up sink Moham-
mechanism! Between these outbreaks Of
massacre the Armenians suffer in silence
wrongs that are seldom if ever reported
They are taxed heavily for the mere privi-
lego of living, and the tax is called 1.-THE
humiliation tax" They are compelled to
give three days entertainment to any
MohammedAn tramp who may DO passing
that way. They must pay blGckniail to the
assessor, lest he report the value Of their
property too highly. Their evidence in
court is Of no worth, and if 80 Armenians
saw wrong committed and one Moham-
medan was present the testimony Of the
one Mohammeda1 would be taken and the
testimony Of the 80 Armeniaus rejected.
In other words, the solemn oath of thou
sand Armenians would not be strong
enough to overthrow the perjury Of one
Mohammedan. A professor was condemn
ed to death for TRANSMITTING the English
Book of Common Prayer into Turkish.
Seventeen Armenians were sentenced TO
15 years Imprisonment for rescuing
Christian bride from the bandits This is
the way the Turkish government amuses
itself in time Of peace. These are the dc
lights Of Turkish civilization

A Delightful Performance.

The "TriumDh OF Love" as pre-
sented by local talent under the su-
pervsion of Mrs. Neumeyer, at the
Reed Saturday night, was certainly a
triumph" in the line of amateur
performances. Lack Of space fOrbids
personal mention of the many partici-
pants, the performance of each unit
ing in making the performance de-
sustained by Mrs. Hallie-Parrsh-
Hinges, as Goddess Of Love; Basil H =,
Wagner, Duke of Burgundy; and D..
A. Dinsmore, Leperello, valet to the
Duke; could not have been improved
upon. The singing by Mrs. Hinges
was one of the pleasing features Of
the evening and this talented vocal
ist, who never fails to delight an
audience, was accorded an encore to
which she gracefully responded.
Misses. Iona White, Nina Heulat and
Esther Collins, as goddesses Of w ealth,
Honor, and Virtue acted we'll their
parts, the former two, by their sing
ing, won the hearty applause their
performance merited and the audi
ence would not be content with one
selection from these beautiful singers
but would only desist from their ap.
plause at the second appearance of
the VOcalists. Miss Pearl Carter, as
Evelina, the Peasant girl, made
pleasing appearance on the stage,
agreeably surprising her many friends,
The demons and imps under Vice,
Prince of Darkness, Chas. H. Burg
graf, were certainly we'll chosen and
they possessed the hidiousness that is
said to be significant of such charac-
ters. Geo. U. Ashby as Demon Of
Drunkenness was good. The perform
ance by the little folks, unlike most
occasions, was carried out without
seconds hesitation which added
greatly to the enjoyment thereof. In
all it was great success and those
who witnessed the performance will
always cherish pleasant memories
thereof.

Coming Attractions.

a leading topic among those inter-
ested in theatrical centers is in the
return to Salem Of Frank Bacons
new company of players. The long
run of the old stock company is in
this city was the longest ever made
here by theatrical organization, and
speaks much in favor of Mr.. Bacon's
judgment in the selection of a
thoroughly artistic organiza tion. Mr..
Bacon says that the present aggrega-
tion is the peer of any company he
has yet connected himself with, and
from the flattering press notices his
company has received in the Southern
papers, 1t would seem that this is true
in every respect The repertoire is
extensive and contains some of the
very latest and most popular creations
of well-known playwrights. The
plays have been selected with a view
to pleasing the whole of the theater-
going public. and the repertoire em-
braces plays which vary widely in
character, and all are Of the highest
order of merit, May Nannary, the
leading lady, and Noryal McGregor,
the leading man, are artists of much
repute. Miss Nannary, although
very young, has won tributes of high
order since her debut, and now ranks
with the best. The same may be
said OF Mr.. McGregor. Other new
members of the company are Helen
Henry, clever soubrette; NJ. J.
Hooley, singing comedian; Harvey
Sedley, a light comedian; Peter Sosso
and j. P. Winter. Among the men,
bers of the company we'll and favor
ably known here are Howard Scott
and Miss Jennie Weidman, The
opening play will be a sensational
melodrama. The play will be given
