A Precedent for Intervention.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer Dem.N y

Intervention in behalf of suffering Cuba.
In 1921 Greece threw off the Turkish yoke
after centuries of oppression just as Cuba
threw off the Spanish yoke in 1895. The
Turks sought to put down the rebellion.
but with as little success as mas attended
Spanish arms. The war was marked by
dreadful barbarities on the part of the
Turks, but barbarities no worse than those
which have been committed by the Span
iards.
At last. in 1927, a treaty was signed by
England, France and Russia by the terms
of which il was stipulated that the three
nations should mediate between ME
Greeks and Turks. the mediation being
based largely on humanitarian grounds.

"If Christ should Come"
New York Observation-Disclosures Rep).

The Rev. Dwight L. Moody said yester-
day that If Jesus Christ should come and
reign as king upon earth" He would be
unlikely TO- carry a state in the United
States" This is probably true Reignine
kings, so far as we have observed, rarely
arrange TO have their titles tested by
referendum. They usually resemble the
Western orator who described himself as
content to take the status quo as I find
them" MIR. Moody however, was not
hampered by these obvious reflections. He
devoted himself TO considering the proba-
bic fate of Jesus Christ if He were to be-
come candidate for office in the United
States. Would the Republican party want

1t is a little difficult 70 understand how
the Fire Commissioners could accept the
proposition to have Chief Mcguire de-
posed in consideration Of providing him
with new Office in the department car
rying a salary equal TO the one he now re-
ceives. Should the proposition be accept
ed, it would be an admission on the part
of the commissioners that there are good
grounds for . charge of Incompetence
against the chief, that they are willing
that he should be deprived of command
Of the department, and that they might
have removed him themselves except for
the fact that they wished 10 keep him Ia
an Office paying a good salary. Further
more, it may be doubted that City Council
would readily agree 10 create a new office
for the benefit OF Me. Mcguire.

and using figures of speech and arguments
which are beneath his dignity, in his ad-

Better Quarantine wanted.
New Orleans Times-Democrat Dem)

AT present, however, we are in quest
of some national quarantine measure
which can be utilized with effect on a sud
den emergency; and if we cannot get quite
what we want we shall take what we can
get and Try to make the most of it, As
the Spooner bill is out of the question for
this year, let US have the Caffery- Wyman
measure if we can get it. But things san
itary will never be on a satisfactory basis
until a department of public health shall
have been established.

the night. Sac retired at the re -ular

indicated the fact that the spirit and

made known every body, who knew
the estima bic old lady. went t"ply

Funeral services were conducted, at

Gowen, in his forcib.e and attractive

large crowd in attendance evinced the
and the expressions of regret over her
departure. and the frequent reference
to her noble, Christian character and
her pure life, reveale / the fact that
every body was her friend.
