The DEMOCRAT publishes in another
column today some expressions from
the Sultan of Turkhy with reference
to the missionaries. ANY fair mind
ed person must admit that there is
much truth in what Abdul Hamid says
and there is no question that if the
conditions were reversed and mission
aries from Turkey worried and har-
assed the government of the United
States as much as our missionaries
harass the Turkish government, they
would be driven OFT of the country in
short order. In attempting to teach
the subjects of the Sultan a new
religion, our missionaries are certain
ly teaching disloyalty and breeding
ssdition among the people.

The men who belong to the Unions
boycotted the whole Dewey celebra-

grand stand is being built by non
union men. These cranks have even
gone so far as to try to prevent q
number of girls from singing in the
