The second consideration is that the SYM

Who shall say how much that fact is
Strengthening the arm and heart of the
Turk. and correspond:ngiy depressing the
spirits of the Greeks? The powers are all

lowering about Crete. sent there for the.
express purpose of bullying Greece. All of
this Is krown in, the camps of both of the
combatants. Both Greece and Turkey
know the hope and ultimate purpose of the
powers. So that when the Turk charges
he is carrying virtually the united stand
ards of Europe in his hand,. while the
Greek has only his own flag waving over
ms head
Greece may be overborne. but she cannot
be disgraced in this business. She is stand
ing for all that the century stands for
good government and Christian civilization
for people who are worthy of the boon ard
who are appealing for it. She may have
miscalculated her strength to do battle for
so noble a cause. but in taking the field.
with That one object in view. and without
thought hope OF selfish reward, she

Gov. O'Ferran's Prai>worthy Course

Governor O'Ferrall is to be commended
for his activity in seeking to learn the ex-
act facts in connection with the recent
lynching in Alexandria. He has consistent
ly striven to overcome the UNIV holesomC
conditions existing in both the city and
county. and ii was largely due to him
that some measure of reform was secured
over the lawless community at the south
end of the Long bridge. through the clos
ing of the outlaw race tracks. The lynch
ing of Mccoy has aroused him to further
efforts. and while he may not be able &c
secure convicting evidence against the par
ticipants he will at least set an excellent
example for the AleXandrians and for all
other citizens of the state.

Reciprocity and Annexation.

All talk of the abrogation of the reci
pro"ity treaty between this country and
Hawaii would cease if the proper steps
taken at once to secure the political
union of the two republics. But pending
the latter action. which is being urged by
the logic of rapidly pressing events. serious
attention shO1ld be paid 20 the former,
against which excellent reasons exist
Former Minister Thurston's demonstration
of facts and figures to the Senate Finance
Committee leaves little room for urging the
ahrogation of this treaty. except on the
selfish ground of certain individual inter-
c>ts. Viewed broadly. Mr.. Thurston
states. the total net benefits that have ac-
crued to the United States by operation of
N treaty amount in money to over S61-
CS.vOD Hawaii. of course. looks to her
own end of the bargain and plainly states
taat if the reciprocal relations should De
8 Vered she must seek some other market
for her trade and must form similar rela-
tons with Great Britain or another COM
mercial power. The United States can not
expect so rich and promising a country TO
continue bad bargain for the sake of per-
sOnal affiliations, nor can il presume the
hope that now animates many of the Ha-
wdiians that annexation will come sooner
Or later. TO prevent the negotiation of
reciprocity treaty between Hawaii and
England. in case of the abrogation of that
now existing The best possible solution
CT the whole question, IL would seem, lies
in some announcement TO the policy of
thiS government with regard to the poIiti-
cal future of the islands looking to union.
Then the reciprocity question will take
care of itself

An Absurd Suggestion.

About the most absurd suggestion that
4 sane mind could conceive is the PROPOSE
tion advanced in one of the papers of that
city that the remains of George Wash
ington should be removed from Mount Yer
non 10 New York,
The thought is one that would not be
entertained for moment any where out
of Gotham. and is. indeed, not worthy OF
consideration. Against carrying it into eff
fe-t the people not of Virginia alone. but
a the whole country would. if need be,

content with what she has. For making
Srant's last days days OF humiliation and

more than the usual length of time to con-
slider the varied matters bearing upon the
