It is told of a Confederate veteran
who fought in the Spanish war that in
moments of excitement he thought he
was fighting the Yankees. A biogra-

a similar story of Lord Raglan. a vet

In 1854 Raglan went to the Crimea.

NO THoRoUeHFARE.

The Glob e congratulates the
board of aldermen on the attitude it
has taken in regard to the paving Of
Rosabel street, from Fifth street to
Eighth. The members have unani-
mously agreed on the necessity for
such new pavement. and it only re-
mains for the assembly to concur with
them.
Nobody can deny that the street is
little more than quagmire. Nobody
can deny that it is an important pub
lie thoroughfare and that it's immedi-
ate repair means so much added TO
the convenience of the general pub
lie. Therefore it should be put in good
condition and that Immediately. This
will be done if the assemblynen per-
form their duty, for the board of pub
lie works has promised to give the
Improvement immediate consideration
when the order for the streets repair
is sent to it.
A few property owners who reside
on the street must not be permitted
to interfere with the comfort of the
general public. A policy that opposes
the repairing Of the street now mere
ly because of the expense attendant
upon it is a short-sighted one and I'M
becoming any citizen who has the well
fare of the city at heart. That so con-
venient a thoroughfare should be
closed up merely because of the self
interests of few would seem a RI
diculous and petty thing. Therefore
T e Glob e hopes that the assem-
blymen will see the matter in the right
light, and that they will vote the way
the people desire them to vote.

SECRETARY MOODY is
SEVERE ON THE ENSIGN
Disapproves the Court Martial Find
inqs in the Case of Workman.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept. Is. -
Secretary Moody has disapprOved the
findings in the case of Ensign Ward
K. Workman, Z. S. A, who was tried
by court martial and acquitted of the
charge of "culpable inefficiency in the
performance of duty" Workman on
Jan. 6 last off San Juan, was in
charge of third gun division on the
Massachusetts, including the two
S-inch guns in the starboard after tur-
ret, when one of them, during target
practice, exploded. injuring nine en-
listed men, all of whom afterward
died. The court of inquiry found
Workman guilty of error of Judgment
in giving an order TO open the breech
Of the gun for the purpose of return
ing to electrical firing while the gun
was loaded and the lanyard was led out
and hooked to the trigger. The court
recommended that no further proceed
ings be had. The secretary, however,
ordered a court-martiaI on the basis
of the courts findings and Workman
was acquitted by this court
Secretary Moody differs from tho
courts finding that there was insult
ficient evidence to prove that the Ian
yard led out and was hooked when
the opening of the breech was given.
In his statement the secretary says:
Being under orders to fire by cleo
IrlclIy ana seeing NO. NOI the crew.
had cooked the lock, and thus broken
the circuit. the accused ordered the
breech to be opened with the gun
loaded and the lanyard led out and
hooked to the trigger of the lock. 1
am of the opinion that the accused
failed to exercise the care which was
required of him; that in giving the
order to open the breech of the gun
he was negligent; that the death of
nine men resulted from his negligence.
and that in what he did and failed to
do in the premises, he was guilty Of
culpable inefficiency. Ensign Wort
man failed to exercise the care and
skill and foresight which the United
States has the right to expect from one
who holds it's commission as an Of
ficer of the navy"
The action of the secretary does not
affect the courts findings.

either for or against the nomination
of any candidate for mayor. AS an
individual, the president is, of course,
keenly interested in the success of any

THE SILENT TURK.

The SILENi IOhk.
Race and religious prejudices may
have much to do with our view of the
Turk. His religion, with its revolving
blood-thirstiness and fatalism, is so re-
pugnant to Occidental ideas that he is
abhorred even of those who hold them
selves free of religious prejudices. His
history is rife with dreadful stories of
cruelties inflicted in the name of re-
ligion-and that history was written
largely by his political and religious
adversaries. It may be-prebably is
very largely. true, But the silence of
the Turk in these days is not under
standable.
The modern Turk is educated beyond
the teachings of the Koran The Turk
that rules and with whom the Occident
comes in contact, is rather better edu-
Gated than those he meets. He is gifted
with the natural diplomacy of the ORR
entail whose aim is to dissemble. He is
generally linguist He knows the pol
itics of the countries with which he
deals quite as well as do the men with
whom he has to do. He has only one
that is the Russian, who is quite as
cruel, just as bigoted and much more
ambitious than the Turk. It is rather
strange that in these days the Turk
does not rise to the conditions and de-
fend himself through the usual ave-
nues for spreading information regard
ing world affairs.
For some months we have been
shown day by day that the Turk is in
dulging in ferocious attacks on the
Christians of Bulgaria and Macedonia.
Most of these reports have come
through sources. easily controlled by
Russia. We have believed them be-
cause we are convinced of the fixed and
dreadful idea held by the Turk that it
is a virtuous act to destroy an unbe-
lever. But though this may be the
fixed idea of the individual Turk it is
absurd to suppose that it is part of
the governmental policy of a people
who know the value of diplomacy quite
as well as they do the virtue of the
sword.
1t is strange that a people capable of
the remarkable things that have been
accomplished by the Turks in making
the worse appear the better reason
should allow this awful indictment that
has been framed in the happenings of
the last few weeks to stand without
refutation. The reports of Turkish
atrocities are SO circumstantial as to
be quite believable and it is possible
that the Meslem feels that he is MAX
ing his last stand in Europe If this
last be true then the world may be
prepared for the most sanguinary war
of modern times, war a Poutrance.
But the silence of the Turk may yet be
broken. st. Petersburg dominates the
politics of Bulgaria; it inspires the
Macedonian. And st. Petersburg does
not move at the instance of the die
tates of humanity or Christianity as we
know it,
America may view the situation in
the East dispassionately until our own
people or interests are attacked.

The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-09-17

Mr.. Balfour suggests in no uncertain
tones a commercial revision that may
! lead to internecine strife. Mr.. Allan, in
his Interpretation of the language OF
ST John, finds sufficient authority
therein to prophesy a commercial war
that will result in England's destruc-
ton.
Considered alone, Mr.. Allan's contri-
button to the Westminster Review
is sufficiently unique, for he
interprets in novel fashion many
of the prophesies in the Book Of Reye-
lation. Take, for instance, these lines
of st. Johns in the Apocalypse, 'And I
saw another beast coming up out of
the earth and he had two horns. like to
a lambs, and he spoke as a dragon"
This dragon Mr.. Allan interprets to
mean England and he thinks that one
horn might most appropriately be named
"buy" and the other sell" Babylon is
let beast he typifies as trade, or England
sitting on the back of Europe. The
commercial war which appears to be
looming up on the horizon this most
recent Interpreter of the Apocalypse
thinks is the Battle of Armageddon of
Revelation. He does not believe that
it will be followed by chaos. Indeed,
he pictures millennium distinctly So
cialistic in tone, but before the arrival
of that England will have been crushed
commercially. Mr.. Allan finds many
other things in the Apocalypse of pain
full significance to England. He thinks
that Immediately following the Battle
of Armageddon the British empire will
be divided into three parts; that she
will probably lose Australia, Canada
and South Africa. This division will
represent for her the beginning of the
end and her downfall from then on will
be rapid.
Now all of this must be most COM
forting to Englishmen in view of re-
cent developments. In fact. of the
many interpretations of the Apocalyp-
tic visions that have been presented,
this must certainly be the least pleas
ing to the citizens of Albion. But it is
just probable that the jewellers in the
tight little isle may not be disposed to
accept Mr.. Allan's Interpretation. Even
if they look with distress upon the de-
termination of Premier BaIfour and
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain to
make protection an issue, they will re-
fuse to regard England as ''the beast"
London as Babylon, the great, the
mother of harlots and denominations of
the EARTH" and the whole empire
doomed to commercial destruction. For
it will occur to many that there is no
particular reason why Mr.. Allan should
be accredited with broader vision; than
the rest of mankind. The opponents of
Mr.. Balfour's policy may find in the
pamphlet just issued the beginning of
commercial strife, but unless. like other
modern prophets, Mr.. Allan has a fol-
lowing, no one will look upon it as the
beginning of the fulfIIment of a
prODhecY
