THERE is, il seems, good reason to
expect that the Armenians may again
be the victims OF persecution by the
Russian and Turkish governments. 1t
seems that England is the only
European nation that takes any in
terest in the fate OF these poor people,
aud England seems TO have little in
fluence now among the powers. 1t is
to be expected that If such o1trsges as
those that occurred before should be
repeated, large section of the Amer
lean people would be found to advocate
the immediate use of the military and
naval forces of the United States
against Turkey In another great "wsr

movement should be discountenanced
until our own badly damaged fences
are repaired, at least.

THE report OF the proposition of the
car looking to retrenchment OF the
armed force of all nations, with a view
to general disarmament in the not far
distant future, comes to us with every
evidence of reliability. The possibili-
ties involved In such action on the
part of the car are stupendous, and
the act itself was so entirely unlocked
for by the rest of the world, that its
effect has been astounding. The Lon
don press declares the document to be
one OF the most important in the his
tory of the world, and
certainly when its vast possibi-
llties are considered it is entitled TO
rank with Magma Chsrta, and far
above the mass OF treaties and con-
ventious that have patched up quarrels
and covered gaping breaches for sea-
SOD. That the czsr should have taken
this step is all the more significant in
view OF the present relations of the
Russian government with England.
What do we find? On Saturday the
newspapers report'that all signs point
10 etrtOuS COuulCb UcbWGcu lug lduu
and Russia, over the China dispute.
The situation has assumed an aspect
that bodies i'll for the preservation of
peace in the world. On Sunday, the
czar calls upon the nationsof the world
to join in conference having for its
object the ultimate accomplishment of
universal peace. We may well won
der at the motive tina. prompted
the car TO take this stsp. But let US
not for one moment doubt his entire
sincerity. 1t is no stage play fer effect.
Rather let Us believe that it comes
from n full realization of the tremend-
Gus responsibilities that rest upon this
young ruler, and q desire to do some
thing that will stand out through all
the ages rs an act glorious even to
sublimity.
