The situation in Europe looks more
warlike just nov than 1t has for many
a year. srhe Turks not long ago be-
gan their old habit of assassinating
Christians, and Turk has gone go far
as to murder a Russian consul. Russia
demanded the punishment by death
Of every person directly or indirectly
responsible for the killing of her ser
want. The usual excuses, promises
and delays ensued, until finally the
Russian government dispatched a
fleet Of war-shipS to COnStantinopIe,
and this fleet Is now on the way. All
this year there has been unrest and
desultory warfare on the borders Of
the Balkan states, until at length the
engagements have become Of such
magnitude that they may be desig-
mated by the name of battles. The
Macedonian Christians, in particular,
seem to be desperately in earnest, and
the reports say that In the fighting.
SO far, they have had the best of It.
It seems incomprehensible that the
civilized powers Of Europe should a.
low the Turkish government to exist
year after year and decade after de-
cade, when its history Is a drama Of
cruelty and murder. But the great
powers are intensely fearful that q
war which would wipe the Sick Man
from the map Of Europe might not be
confined to its original sphere, and
that some one country would possibly
secure the lions share Of the spoils.
Hence it is that Turkey has been
allowed to perSecute Christians with
out anything more serious being done
to disturb her than the making OF
protests by the powers. But the
ihurderipg of accredited representa-
tives Of foreign governments is y Sc
rious matter, and 1t appears from the
press dispatches that the great powers
have almost reached the point where
the destruction of Turkey will be
allowed. There would be no sorrow
on the part Of civilized people should
the brutal Turk be- deprived Of his
power for evil.

Fred Kuhn Gets
Long Sentence
Lad Wanted in Astoria Given
Three and One-haII Years by
Portland Court.

The authorities Of Clatsop county are
anxious to again get Fred Kuhn into
their custody, but. the man has just
been given penitentiary sentence at
Portland, Kuhn is about 10 years Of
age and more than a year ago was ar
rested for larceny from a dwelling He
was employed at Locksley Hall, Sea-
side, and roomed with a. man who
worked at the hotel One morning he
rose early and helped himself to some
money belonging to the man, but was
detected and arrested. At the trial
his guilt vas clearly proved. on ac-
count of the youth of the lad, Judge
Mcbride agreed to suspend sentence
during good behavior Kuhn promised
faithfully that he would thereafter be-
have himself and seemed very grateful
to the authorities for their considera-
tion.
His promise was no sooner made
than broken, however, and after Kuhn
left Astoria he commenced his misdo-
fngs again, He went over to Wash
mgton and his unlawful acts resulted
In his arrest. Half a dozen times ne
was in trouble, and at Portland recent
ly he was arrested for forgery. He
was tried before Circuit Judge Cleland
and found guilty. Yesterday he was
brought into court for sentence and
given three and one-half years in the
penitentiary at hard labor. When the
court pronounced sentence Kuhn
shrugged his shoulders and smiled
family evidently having expected q
much longer term.
In the circuit court this morning
Judge Mcbride issued bench warrant
for Kuhn, whose misdeeds have filed
the local authorities with desire TO
secure custody of the lad and mete out
the punishment to him that his clatsop
county career iustifies. However, the
sentence pronounced by the Portland
court places him beyond the reach OF
the local authorities. At Portland
