NOT OUT OF THE WOODS.

They have an inadequate conception
of the resources Of duplicity and insin-
cerity at the command of the Turk who
imagine that his consent to an armis-
tice to discuss terms of peace was tan
tamount to yielding to the demands Of
the powers. It is very apparent that
the difficulties Of the allied nations in
bringing the sultan to time have only
just begun The bone Of contention has
been and is to be the occupation of
Thessaly. The Porte has definitely de-
termined, we believe, that the annexa-
ton of this province Of Greece is to be
it's principal gain and the first condi-
ton of the close Of hostilities with
Greece. The Turk does not allow him
self to be turned easily from an end
that he has in view, and his favorite
device is seeming to yield in order that
he may obtain a flrmer grip upon the
situation. He knows better than any
one else that the alleged concert of the
powers is a rope Of sand. He knows
why they have previously permitted
him to massacre $4,000 Armenians, and
needs no larger measure of their i'm
potence.
Turkey is now in possession Of Thes-
sally. Greece Is unable to drive her
out by force of arms. She cannot be
expelled from that territory, if she
chooses to remain there. by anything
short Of actual armed compulsion by
the powers. Does any one believe that
this will be resorted to-? Does any one

Chief Of Detectives Schweitzer is in receipt
of a letter from Duluth asking the where

have been employed on local paper last
summer. His parents have not heard from
him since Christmas, and fear he may have
met with some misfortune which has pre-
vented him from communicating with them.
G. ]. Crosby, living at liz University ave-

He was taken to his home.

The vote of Senator McEnery is
equally well understood. He considers
that his business in the senate is to Sc
cure legislative favoritism for the SUI
gar planters of Louisiana. They de-
mand that the tax on a commodity Of
which the people of this country con-
sumo $90,000,0O0 worth every year at
present prices shall be regulated and
fixed in such manner as will secure a
profit to the small body of growers Of
sugar cane in Louisiana. 1t matters

vor of protecting a few people in one
state at the cost of all the people in
forty four others.
Thus we have the principle of protec-
ton set plainly before us. 1t is the
hideous and naked power of money in
politics. 1t means that the legislative
function, high and sacred as it was in
tended to be, as it must be in every ma

and the demands of powerful financial
interests, using politics corruptly to
swell their bank account. Shameful as
this is on the part of any man, it is a
double disgrace when chat man calls
himself a Democrat, and turns traitor
to his party and it's faith at the bidding
of a local interest in his constituency.
The place for such men is in the Re-
publican ranks. If the Democratic par
ty is ever to be true to itself, is ever to
command the enthusiastic devotion Of
this nation it must reject the abomina-
ton of commerciaism, not merely as
represented by the trust, but as it
shows itself in the meaner and greedier
influences that are asking and receiv-

nothing but the dirty rag labeled "pro-
tection' to cover it's naked immortality.

Collector Gibson Accused Of ViOlat-
ing His Authority.

L. Favilla, the proprietor of a con-
fectionery store at Fourth and Mime
sofa streets, was charged in the police
court yesterday by Charles Gibson, d
collector, with assault and battery.
Gibson claims that he visited Favilla's
place of business Wednesday to collect
a bill and that he was forcibly elected
by Favilla and his son, who also
threatened him with a bar of iron.
Favil1a's version of the affair is
somewhat different. He claims that.
when, in answer to an insulting de-
mand for a settlement by Gibson, he
informed the latter he would have to
wait for his money, the collector flashed
the star of special police officer and
intimated that a failure to pay the ac-
count meant arrest. Gibson was then
put out of the store, Favilla claiming
that the city machinery couldn't be
used against him in the collection Of a
private account.
Gibson was called to account by
Mayor Doran for using his special star
in his collecting business, but after
hearing the latter's statement Of the
Favilla trouble, the mayor postponed
any action pending the outcome of the
case in the police court. The case was
continued until today, bail for Favilia
being fixed at $25.

Say MuehIberg Was Too Anxious to

Adjt. Gen. Muehlberg and Col. Shan
drew, of the Third infantry. national
guard, will go in few days to Olivia.
Renville county, where there is to be
mustered In the new company of the
Third to take the place of Company F
at Fergus Falls.
The company at Olivia = has been
diligently working for the past two
Or three weeks in anticipation of being
admitted to the guard. and when the
mastering in papers have been made.
the military storekeepers will attend
to the transferring of the company
arms to Olivia. The boys will be
obliged to buy their own uniforms, az
the state buys. them none until after
the first annual inspection, which will
occur in the spring.
There are said to be 100 members of
the raw company, but of these there
will be only seventy-six admitted TO
the regiment as company.
The Fergus Falls people do not seem
to be entirely pleased at the mastering
out Of their national guard company,
and it is broadly intimated that the
disruption of the company is due to
the fact that Lieut. P. O. Field, who,
finding he could not be elected captain,
wrote a letter to Adjt. Gen. Nuremberg
asking that the company be mustered
is said, without ascertaining whether
or not the sentiment was in favor of
such move or not.
He learned something Of the views
of the Fergus Falls people yesterday
when a delegation, consisting of SEN
ator A. B. Cole and A. L. Hilton, for
merly captain of the mustered out
company, waited on him and stated to
him the case at length.
Having given his promise to Olivia.
the best the adjutant general could do
was to promise his visitors that if
there was a wish to keep their conf
pany in, the guard, they would be con-
sidered for the next vacancy. 1t is
said that the interest in national guard
matters has been at low ebb for some
time past, and this fact probably
strengthened the notion Of the adjutant
general that Field represented the sem
timent of the town.
There is much feeling over his ac-
tion, the result Of which was not
known until the daily papers reached
Fergus Falls, but it appears that it
is too late now to do much for the
mustered out company.

ever recalcitrant the Turk may be, they
would actually march against him in
the field? Is any one so ignorant as
to suppose that the allied forces Of
Russia and Germany and Austria and
Italy and France and England could
or would be put in motion against the
armies Of Turkey in order to restore
Thessaly to the, Greek dominions? The
supposition is preposterous.
The powers imay. fume and threaten,
and send in ultimatums and issue proc
lamations Of the wonderful things that
they are about oodo. but they will no
more lift the hhndlof power against the
sultan in Thessalysthan they did in Ar
menta. He isr.safe from foreign inter-
vention, and he. kpows it. England IS
said, indeed, TO have announced, prac-
tically, that she. will abandon the sex
tuple ALLIANCE unless it compels the
Turks to evacuate Thessaly. What
then? Suppose she does. Why need
this disturb the powers of Constantf-
nople? Will England, that has suffer-
ed humiliation and disgrace unparai-
leled in her history, in order to Keep
the peace and prevent her Turkish
bonds from becoming worthless, now
venture all that she has feared, and a
war with some other power as Well
over the question Of the retocession OF
Thessaly? Would the Turk himself be
without allies at such a game? Is not
the open disruption of this alliance but
one more trump in the hand that he
holds? Would not Russia, the only
power that Turkey really breads, be
willing to allow the Turk to retain
Thessaly if that province was to be
Differed and administered by agents OF
her own under a mere nominal Turkish
suzerainty?
The whole Eastern question at this
moment exhibits the incompetence and
impotence of the so-called concert of
the powers. Every advantage is on the
side Of Turkey. And there is no pos
sible means in sight today by, which
she can be compelled to relinquish her
demand for ThessaIy if she chooses to
stand by it, The difficulties of the pow
ers have grown with every step In this
iniquitous business They eliminate in
the virtual mastery of Turkey and her
ability to insist upon terms of her
own making, up to the point of a gen.
eral clash of arms, which Europe dare
not venture Cowardice and CONNER
cialism, upon whose deaf ears not even
the death cry Of humanity can make an
impression, bring their own reward.
The bloody and beastly Turk can defy
Europe and civilization with safety, be-
cause they have intrenched him in a
position wherethe is mightier than they.

POLK COUNTY BUILDINGS.
Commission Is Appointed to Apurafse
Their Value.


Their Value.
Gov. Clough yesterday named Ezra
G.. Valentine, Of Breckenridge; E. G.
Holmes, of Detroit, and Andrew Grin
deland, of Warren, as a commission
to inspect and appraise the value Of
the county buildings of Polk county
This step Is made necessary by the
fact that Red Lake county, newly or
ganized, is an off-shoot of Polk. and
must stand part of the floating indebt-
edness of the other county. This is
provided for by chapter 14S Of the
General Laws Of 1893, which sets forth
that before this Indebtedness is pro
rated the amount representing the
value Of the county buildings, which
must stand as an asset to the credit
of the old county, must be deducted
from the total debt. When this has
been done then the balance will be
divided proportionately and borne by
the old and new counties. Hence the
appraising commission.
