THE TERMS OF PEACE.

Turkey is not to be permitted to rean
the fruits of her victory over Greece
1t seems; the. powers will arrange the
matter to suit themselves, giving as
little consideration to the wishes Of
Turkey as to those of Greece. 1t an
pears the Turks are not to be per-
mitted to take Thessaly and make If
part of their country; and what must
be still greater blow to Turkish pride
is the fact that the combinations are
not to be abolished. This is an official
recognition by the powers that Turkey
is semi-barbarous nation, and that
her courts are not to have Jurisdiction
over Greeks.
The continuation of the capituIa-
tons continues Turkey on the same
plane as that on which China stands.
This can only be gall and NORWOOD

no faith in the honesty, integrity or
ability of the native judges; that they
mistrust them today as much as ever
they did, and that the Armenian mas

an already practically bankrupt ma
ton. But in view of all the circnm
stances of the war and of Greece's ag-
gression in the first instance, Turkey is
entitled to make a demand for some in
demnity; modern usage will sanction
this.
1t is not at all improbable that it
will yet develop, not Immediately, that
Greece was used as a cats paw, the
enthusiasm of her people having been
taken advantage of TO ascertain what
it was possible 10 do in the east and
to force the hands of various powers.
if that could be done Greece was inn
petuous and hasty, but grievously hath
she paid for her impetuosity and haste.
And the hand of no power has been
forced
