THE FoRBEARANoE of Turkey during
the wsr forced upon her by Greece and
throughout the entire negotiations for
subsequent peace, is the subject of al.
most unanimous commendstion by the
intelligent people of the whole of Eu.
rope, and by most of those of this coun.
try who are at all familiar with the cir
cumstances of the case. Indeed, the
"unspeakable Turk" in the entire mat.
ter has put to shame those who speak
evil of him, and affords plain illustra
ton of the necessity of knowledge as q
prerequisite for judgment.

In BIS speech at North Adams, yes
terday, President Mckinley said "no
State has prouder history than Mas.
sachusetts." But when the country
was involved in war with England,
Massachusetts, declared for secession
and sent delegates to the Hartford con.
vention to effect that purpose unless the
war of 1912 should be brought to q
close, and was very lukewarm in respect
of the Mexican war.

THAT THE administration wing of the
republican party in this State ia stick
ing together is proved by the fact that
in every county the Office holders, and
those who hope to be, have held or are
holding meetings, endorsing the action
of the State, committee in opposing a
State convention and State ticket at
the coming election. But the conven.
tionists are doing likewise, and, so far
as heard from, their meetings are
larger and more enthusiastic, and the
indications now are, the members of
the executive committee to the con-
trary, that the Lynchburg convention
will be largely attended by the leading
white republicans from nearly all the
counties in the State.

WONDERFUL SURGICAL FHAr.-A

WONDERFUL SURGICAL FEAT.-A
wonderful fsst of surgical operation
has been performed by Drs. Parsons
and McCaughon, of the Children's
Hospital, St. Louis, upon nine-year-old
Lille Stanenius. They constructed for
her palate and nose and upper lip.
She is an orphan and was sent to the
hospital from the Episcopal Orphans
Home. Her face was deformed and
was frightful to look upon. The sur.
geons saw but one way to remedy it
and that was by an operation. The
palate was gone and her nose had
grown over and attached itself to her
harelip. The case was singular one
and called forth the most delicate of
surgical work. The operation was
successful, even beyond the anticipa-
lions of the surgeone.

THE FIL1BUsTERs, finding that the
thinking, conservative people OF the
country will not accept any of their
utterly groundless alleged reasons for
Selling Cuba, the indisputable territory
of nation with which this country is
at peace, and which has never done it
any harm, now render themselves
ridiculous by saying that the negro
and scalawag insurgents in Cuba should
be recognized and war with Spain be
brought on, as hygenic measures, and
to prevent yellow fever in Cuba and
the danger of its importation into this
country. Why, yellow fever is an en-
demic of Cuba, and has been since the
discovery of that island, and probably
ever since the creation thereof, and
that the prevalence of it there, and
the danger of its importation here
could possibly be prevented BY the de.
feat of Spain and the success of her ig-
norant, semi.civilized and superstitious
insurgent subjects, no intelligent man
believes.

Colby Never Refused to Play.

Just at this time the Colby foot bal
team is furnishing considerable subject
matter for Maine newspapers The aii
of the song they all sing is from
Orono's Same Old Story" At the
opening of the season the Journal in
sizing up the teams of the Maine Col
lege League, considered the u of NJ
team, not one of the strongest, but the
strongest of the league The Journal
had right to this judgement and 50
of course had right to be surprised
that Bates should handle the men from
Orono as they did. Colby started in
the season light and weak and opened
the season OTTER but very little prac-
tice. Colby's manager gave U. of M.
the same opportunity that he did the
other teams Of the league to get on 1
game, but the offer was disregarded
until it was too late. Mr.. Webster now
wants game with Colby on a date
very near to that of the Colby Bow
doin game, too near to be comfortable
for Colby. Colby has nothing, this
year, to be ashamed of in the way of Il
record. Colby never refused U. of NJ.
anything within reason. Whatever
you say about Colby you cannot truth
fully say that Manager Corson did not
give U. of M. the same chance as ne
did the others, and the others took
their chance, as did Colby. The sup
porters of the Colby team had rather
see the team defeated than to have
it charged truthfullly that the team
took opportunity to squeal.
