KUMoRS THAT GRAND TRUNK WILL BOON
NOTION. VT. ~ CONSOLIDATING ALL
ITS SHOPS AND YARDS THERE.
The Argus hears rumois OF an impor-
taut deal on the Grand Trunk which /
means much to people upthe line. Asthe
story is told A. NJ. Stctson, he lumber
king. whose mills are At Norton Mills,
VT. has been Tor years trying To get the
custom house now at Island Pond moved
to Norton Mills, which is within mile
or two of the Canadian border. Tic has
tried through at least one admiustra-
ton and made no Roadway. Now, with
Mr.. Charles s. Hamlin. of Boston, VIM
is friend and near neighbor OF Mr..
Stetson. in the position of assistant Sec
rotary of the treasury, ii is thought that
more Roadway will be made. 1t is even
said that special agents of the depart
ment have been sent to look the ground
over, but this cannot he confirmed at
present. lfthis change is made it means
a great deal to the towns OF Island Pond,
Gorham and Richmond P. Q.
Island Pond is at present the place
where the two divisions of the road be.
tween here and Montreal meet. Tram
crews are changed there, and it is a meal
station, meals being served to passengers
at the Stewart House during halt hour
wait while the haggageis being examined
Of course if the custom house is changed
the meal station and consequently the
division end with round house, etc, viii
treal.
Mr.. Stetson has, it is understood
agreed to give the Grand Trunk lanC
r enough at Norton Mills on which to builC
} freight yard and for the necessary
| buildings. The former officials of tn
company could never be made to see th'
5 ACCESSIBILITY of consolidating the various

and Richmond, but the present incum

S The principal shops this side of POin

y ings.
r There is large establishment a

e The idea now is to consolidate all {

If vile, so to speak.
Of This of course is bad news for people a

institute reforms urged by the repre-
sentatives of the six great European
powers.
War vessels by the score were sta
toned at the entrance of the Darda-
nelles, but when, in the opinion of the
civilized world, the time for action had
arrived the powers refused to do any
thing more than to exchange few
more diplomatic notes. Austria pro-
posed plan for concerted action,
which was received coldly both at Lon
don and st. Petersburg, Lord Salisbury

the sultan in speech delivered on No

Mr.. Gladstone's statement that Rus
sia is at the feet of Turkey needs in
terpretation. The cZar and his ad-
visers are not afraid of Turkey, but
they fear that any ill-advised move on
their part might give Austria and
Great Britain an advantage in the di-
vision of the spoils. Twice within this
century Russia has called the porte
to account, The Crimean war was the
result of Mohammedan outrages. With
out the hel p which England and France
then gave to the Ottoman empire it's
days in Europe and in the Christian
provinces of Asia Minor would have
been numbered. The Russo-Turkish
war of 1877, which gave freedom to mil
lions of Christians from the Mussulman
yoke, would have ended Abdul Hamid's
reign in Europe had not the congress
of Berlin protected him. In both in
stances the powers who had the settle
ment of the oriental question in their
hands sided with the "unspeakable
Turk" from purely selfish motives, and
it is no eXaggeration to say that the
blood of the murdered Armenian Chris
tians is on the, hands of Disraeli and
those diplomats who aided him in de-
priying Russia of her just deserts IS
years ago.
And now, when the civilized states
of Europe have another opportunity to
advance the cause Of Christianity and
good government, the same petty ieal-
ousy which has retarded progress in
the Balkan peninsula during the past
half century is at work and threatens
Il continuation of Turkish power in
Constantinople and the Christian prov
inces of the Ottoman realm.
Austria, so semi-oflicial statements
confirm, suggested the establishment of
independent governments in Salonica,
Macedonia, Albania and other Turkish
vilaycts, or provinces, in Europe,

TO be under the supervision of
Russia, Austria, Great Britain, France,

along the lines here outlined. The
objection that Russia is a tyrannical
country and should therefore not Sc
cure Constantinople is not logical; for
whatever may be said against Muscovitc
rule the officials of the czar have always
protected the lives and property and
respected the religious preiudices OF
peoples and tribes conquered in war.
Moreover, although primitive in some
respects, Russia is Christian country,
capable of the highest development.
On the other hand, Turkey will never
rise above its present moral status, and
as long as it has Christian subjects will
murder and outrage them.
The present sultan, it is true, is a
weak ruler. But history has taught
that no sultan can defy the preiudices
of the palace ring, which is and always
will be anti-Christian; hence the acces-
sion OF new ruler would not change
the present aspect OF affairs.
The excellent map accompanying this
article shows Turkey in Europe and the
states which have been taken from her
within the memory of many readers.
The Turks who now rule over the rem
nants Of the Ottoman empire are of Tar
tar origin. They established them
selves on European soil in 1890. Sultan
Amurath l., called by some the greatest
general OF the Ottoman tribe, estab-
iished his capital at Adrianople. There
the seat of government remained until
Mohanmed II. conquered Constantine
pie in 1853, and made it the capital of
the Turkish empire, under the name of
Stamboul. In l4G0 the same pad
ishah"-this is the Turkish title for sui
tan--conquered Greece. Soleiman H..
who reigned from 1919 to 1866, brought
the empire to the height of it's glory.
He captured half OF hungary, besieged
Vienna, the capital of Austria, and
iormed plans for subjugating the whole
occident. lie was opposed by the flower
of European chiyalry, and returned
to Constantinople. After Soleiman's
death Turkeys position was almost i'm
pregnablc, but near the close of the 10th
century the fabric began to totter. Sew
eral expeditions sept against the Hun
garians and Germans ended in disaster
In the 1oth century began the dismem-
berment OF the thoroughly corrupt en-
pire. It lost province after province
until the name of "the sick man of
Europe" was applied to it by every body.
The world has never had a more wicked
and corrupt government than that
founded by the cruel Orkhan. Let all
Christian mep and women pray that his
equally cruel successor, Abdul Hamid
H., will be the last of the tribe TO occupy
European throne.

Whipple Debating Society.

The society met at the school-house
in Whipple on Friday evening Jan. 10th.
The house was crowded to its utmost
capacity with people. The meeting
was called to order by the president
A. b. Chapman, and was
opened with a beautiful song by the
"Whipple Choir" who have recently
received their training under the
management of Prof. Davis.
Recitations were then delivered by
Edward Morgenstern, Minnie Lankford,
Anna Shrader and Flora Stowe, who
all did exceedingly well, especially
Flora Stone, little girl ten years of
age who won the admiration of all
present by the effective way of deliver
ing her defamation.
A piece was then read by Anna Stone
followed by reading of the "Whipple
Cyclone, breezy little paper edited
by Mrs j. O. Dutton, which kept the
house in an uproar of laughter from
beginning to end.
A recess of few minutes was taken
after which the question for debate,
Resolved, That Fire is more destructive
than Water was discussed by the
following debaters; affirmative, d.
Schofield, L. Whitney, j. o. Dutton,
Z. j. Flanders and Prof. Blake, mega
tive A. Hart, D. L Smith, A. b. Chap
man, c. w. thinner and Prof. Mueller.
All present seemed to take deep
interest in the question and the debat-
ers especially seemed to be fully de.
termined to make their arguments in
teresting.
After a brief but 'hotly contested
discussion the question was decided in
favor of the affirmative.
The question chosen for the next de.
bate is, Resolved, that surroundings
have more to do with successes than
Ability. After which the society adj
journed to meet again Thursday even
ing, Jan. Esd.
