CRETAN DIFFICULTIES.

The beated appointment of II Governor of
Crete by the Powers may not end the troubles
of that unhappy island. 1t is by no means
sure that the Sultan will acquiesce in the ap-
pointment. There have been rumors that he
would object 10 II, and would make his OBJ
lection potent through some sensational stroke
of statecraft or of arms. Danger Of such a
complication Is by no means past. Indeed II Is
almost too much TO expect that either the Sui
tan or the Cretans themselves will without de-
mur accept the settlement OF a foreign Gov
ernOr over the island. The example Of Samos
and the Lebanon has been cited as the proper
one to be followed In the case of Crete. But
the Governors of those two provinces are ap-
pointed by the Sultan from among his own
subjects That Is very different from having IN
alien appointed by allen Powers The latter
NAV be resented by the Cretans themselves as
not consistent with true autonomy and 1t will
not be easy 70 prove logically that they are not
right.
Passing that by, there are other difficulties Of
a serious nature. The Turkish troops must be
withdrawn But the Sultan, having we'll
founded apprehensions concerning the safety
Of the lives Of his Moslcm subjects In the island
declines to withdraw the troops until the In
habtants Of the island have been dlsarmed To

tariff possco more than three months ago, AMI
a test Of its influence upon prices is in order.
Its opponents have insisted. in farming regions
where higher prices for farm products are bene-
fetal that these arc in no degree due 10 The
new tariff But in manufacturing regions.
where every advance increases the cost of
living. they have continued TO assert that the
tariff makes everything dcarcr from the cradl"
10 tho grave" As such reasoning Is flaGrantly
dishonest 50 advocates OF the protective sys-
TEN are bound to distinguish between advances

vances resulting from higher duties on imports.
