CONFUSION on TIE CONTINENT.

Abyssinia Is justifying It's name. Ii Is. indeed,
the Land OF Mixtures" 1t Is causing Il pro-
digious mixture OF affairs among the Great
Powers OF Europe. Not for many years have
the dissolution of the Triple League, the forma-
ton Of new alliances and the general rcdistrbu-
ton OF the balance Of power seemed so immi-
ncnt as now A single decisive victory OF King
Mcnelek's forces has thrown the whole Continent
into confusion 1t is also pretty bit Of what
we call the irony Of fate that the Power which
first adopted extreme militarism as n system
should now strike that system in Europe so stag
gerinr a blow That Power was Abysslnia
Long before Sedan, or even Sadowa. King
Theodore made OF his realm one mighty camp
He organized the standing army on greater
scale, proportionately, than that Of any Euro
pean Power to-day 1t was that fact that
aroused dsaffection toward him among his own
people, made the conquest of his capital by the
British so easy-a curious paradox-and drove
him to suicide And now European mtnrism
comes into contact with the remnants OF his
system. and Is almost shattered by the shock
The utter selfshness Of the Great Powers was
never more strikingly shown than in this crisis
Italy had been impovcrishng herself and she'd
ding her very hearts blood for the sake Of her
allies And now In her dire distress, those allies
pass by on fhe other sidc offering her not even
their sympathy. Their only message Is the brutal
remark that she Is beaten and ruined, and may
as well own up to It,. Tomorrow they will be as
ready to prey upon her and despoll her rs they
have hitherto been 10 her for their own
ends. No wonder King Humbert resents their
so-called advice, and resolves to stand or fail on
his own chosen ground But what pity 1t Is
| that he will not at once sever the fatal bonds

EVACUATION OF EGYPT.

Current discussion of Englands position in
Egypt Is not always confined to correct basis
1t IS assumed that the occupation was erected
without a shadow Of right and has been main
tanned in violation Of good faith. But such as
sumptIons are by no means just, and they come
with the worst Of grace from the other European
Powers. AS 4 matter Of pure ethics, the right
OF one country to interfere with the domestic
affairs of another may be questioned. In prac-
teal politics it is taken for granted. France,
Germany and Russia have all done it as well as
England, and are doing It to-day. In some cases
they have done it without other cause or provo
cation than their own greed. Certainly il ever
1t Is justifabie II Is In such case as that pre-
serted by Egypt in 1889, when great interna-
tiOnal and humane interests were at stake and
when such Intervention was the only means OF
saving the country from anarchy and ruin. 1t
may be that England carried her Intervention
too far. The bOmbardment of Alexandria may
have been uncalled-for savagery. Many Eng
lishmen agreed with John Bright in thinking
so. and in condemning Mr.. Gladstone for 1t.
But for the sake Of civilization and humanity 1t
was necessary for some Power or Powers to
enter Egypt and re-establish a sound and honest
Government England invited France to 90 In
with her as an equal partner. France refused
doubtless through German marplotry. So Eng
land undertook the work alone.
The very next year England was ready to
cvacuate Egypt; or so Mr.. Gladstone declared
But then came the insurrection Of the Mahdists
in the Soudan. To evacuate then would have
meant TO abandon the country to barbarism. and
LET Cairo and Alexandria share the fate OF Khar
toun. No doubt the Gladstone Government
blundered. and Numbered criminally. In Its be
trayal Of Gordon and its management or ina

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15-Chairman Bah
cock, of the Republican congressional cam
paign committe to-day said: THE result
of the election in Maine will be of very
great value to all business and financial
interests at this time 1t will restore con-
fdence in financial circles, not only in this
country, but throughout the world. We
looked for a large majority in Maine, but
hardly expected it to equal the plurality
given in 1894 when so many Democrats re-
fused to vote, but it has exceeded that
plurality by about 30 per cent, and no one
can for moment doubt that this vote in
Maine indicates the sentiment of the great
there are large manufacturing and agri-
cultural interests, the States whose people
read and have an intelligent voting popula-
ton will, in my opinion join the procession
and follow the lead set by Vermont and
Maine.
THE key to the situat ton in campaign
is to determine which way the tide is set
ting. This it is often extremely difficult to
Oregon Vermont and Maine elections, I
recognized and claimed that they were in
dicative of the sentiment of the whole
country, and stated that l believed that
that practically settled the contest, and my
opinion and predictions were fully borne
out by the result in November. This year
the majorities in NekFaont and Maine are
much more pronounced and larger than
they were two years ago and from this l
can drlw only one conclusion, l have
heretofore. and that is that the manufac-
turing and agricultural States will follow
the example set by Vermont and Maine and
give such a pronounced majority against
free silver and repudiation that it will set
tie the question for all time to come
