why Judge Batchelles Regards Case
Aol BuIEarians a. Hopeless.
Judge George 8. Batcheller, who on
tinues to call Saratoga ''home" despite
fifteen years Of official residence in the
orient, halted long enough at the Fifth
Avenue hotel, in New York, to prepare
for his passage OIL the Deutschland,
outbound to his present post of duty
at Alexandria. Egypt, says the New
York Tribune. He was advanced by
President Roosevelt in 1902 to his
present place as a member Of the su-
preme court Of appeals Of the interna-
tional tribunal. Speaking Of the dis
orders that now SO deeply involve Bull
garia, he said: "Of course, | sympathize
with the Bulgarians. Theirs is the
same struggle that the Cubans waged
for liberty, but it is q hopeless strug-
gle. The Bulgarians lack numerical
strength, they lack organization and
lack both the money and munitions of
war necessary to cope with Turkey,
which has a large army, we'll organ
lied by the Germans. The Bulgarians
can only carry on a guerrilla warfare
and can make a lot Of trouble for the
Turks while also making much for
themselves. The conflict will o 0 burn
itself out, for the reason that 1t Is not
to the interest Of the powers to con-
tribute to the disintegration Of the
Turkish empire. 1t is especially the
interest of England and Austria to
have Turkey stand as a barrier to
Russian expansion toward the Mediter-
rarean.
are practiced and in this connection it
should lie understood that the eastern
peoples have not been trained in the
amenities of modern warfare. The
Bulgarians, described in general terms,
are Greek Christians. They are not
pagans. but Unitarians. They believe
in one God and regard Christ as a di-
vine parsonage teacher and a proph-
ct. They are held together by the ties
Of mutual h%ardships experienced In
their daily lives and in their religious
sympathies. The Turks are bound to-
gether by interest and religion. No
such thing as patriotism exists among
Turks. 1t Is my observation, however,
that Mahommedans are more tolerant
than Christians under similar condi-
tons Of p%royocation. l consider that
the Beirut matter was purely a local
affair. in which we are not called upon
to interfere any more than might some
foreign power If a riot developed in
one of our city streets. The general
feeling and inclination of western
Christian peoples that they should in.
~terfere in Mahommedan affairs is, In
my Judgment, unjustifiable and unnec
: essary. 1t is not our business and is
out of our sphere"

An Educator's Explorine Trip.

President Harper of the University
Of Chicago has succeeded in securing
from the sultan the right to explore
the ruins Of ancient Babylon. The uni
versity has now obtained permission to
excavate in Tel Ibrahim. Application
was made to the sultan for permission
to explore the ruins of Babylon and its
neighborhood in 1900, and after long
delays it was granted. But further de-
lays occurred, and the trade was not
Issued. Then it was discovered that
the Germans had received permission
to explore the same territory. It is be-
neyed that the ruins of the temple in
which ACKNOWLEDGMENT offered sacri-
fees in,5s0 B. G. and also an extensive
library of clay tablets will be uncov-
cred.

PIaus q Great Work.

The few British Home Secretary
Plans . Great Work.
With the exception Of those who are
taking the chief parts In the SO called
Fiscal controversy" now raging In
England no member of the British cab
met has been more talked Of lately
than the recently appointed home sec
rotary, the Right Hon. Aretas Akers-
Douglas, says the London correspond
ent Of the Washington Post. In his
capacity as head of the department of
the government which deals with GRIM
mails Mr.. Akers-Douglas recently laid
before parliament a scheme regarding
the treatment of wrongdoers which.
he hopes, will solve a problem that has
been for years agitating the minds Of
his predecessors. He is going to try
to reform the criminal classes so as to
make them both within and without
the prison citizens. Hitherto prisoners,
irrespective of their antecedents, who
were sentenced to penal servitude-
that Is, any term involving confinement
for over two years-were put to- such
improbable occupations as picking oak
UNI or breaking stones. The secretary
feels that all prisoners are not. hope
less cases; hence his new scheme.
Young men serving their first period
are to be kept under special observa-
ton, and if 1t Is found that the crimi-
nal instinct is not strongly developed
in them they will be taught some use
ful trade. which NAV helD them ia he
come respectable citizens on their re-
lease. Habitual criminals will also be
put to some useful occupation by which
they will no longer be a burden on the
taxpayer, and IL they show no dispose
ton to reform they will be kept in pris'
on for an indefinite period. This fea-
turc Of the scheme is drastic because
It will need a special act of parliament
to put 1t into operation.

CRUSADE ON MoRMoNs.
John Alexander D0wie's Plans to
Invade Utah Next Year.

John Alexander DOwie's Plans to
Invade Utah Next Year.
Mormonism Is threatened with ex-
tinction more absolute than could be
attained by any mere legislation. says
the Chicago Record-Herald. The inner
most fortress of the Mormons at Salt
Lake City is to be attacked next year
by the legions Of John Alexander Dow
lie. Conversion to Zion City tenets"
will be the slogan Of the Dowie battle
array.
'"The restoration hosts will assuredly
crusade to Utah in 1904" said one OF
DIR. Dowie's deacons the other day.
"From Chicago and the neighboring
states we will move 5000 or 1900
strong. In the west Zion has many fol-
lowers, and they will be expected to
Join the army"
The founder Of Zion City anticipates
a decidedly lively campaign against
the serried ranks Of Mormonism. He
thinks that the trend Of affairs will
be anything but dull. No secret has
been made by DR.. Dowie Of his longing
to contrive a conversion OF the Nor
mons, and the deeds that they hope to
do in the Utah stronghold are constant
" being discussed by the citizens OF
Zion.
After the iniquity Of Chicago and
New York, DR.. Dowie, It is understood,
believes Salt Lake City to be the worst
Of remaining wicked American cities.
Salt Lakes superlative badness, accord
ing to DR.. Dowie, is based not so much
on the actual vice there holding sway
or on the number of crimes committed,
but rather on the practice of Mormon
ism, which Is particularly abhorrent to
Zionists.
But the expedition to Salt Lake Is
only a beginning. 1t is nothing more
than a first battle in a campaign. SaI
Francisco has been charted az the scene
OF warfare in 1905, and on it thu
crusaders will move at that time. It !:
said that all the cities on the continen'
which DR.. Dowie thinks in need o.
moral reform and regeneration have
been listed, and they will be attacked
one by one and year by year in due or
der Of their immortality. 1t Is possible
that a foreign expedition to China will
be arranged, DR.. Dowie taking intens'
interest in the Chinese. When the Sal
Francisco warfare Is waged particula
attention will be given to Cinnamon.

Urges Use of Wicker Work Comns.
DR.. G. A. Lindley Of New Haven,
Conn.,. secretary of the state board of
health and professor emeritus in Yale
Medical college, at a meeting Of the
Medical association the other day urged
the adoption Of wicker work collins in
stead Of metallic caskets, says the Chi
cago Record-Herald, 30 as to insure a
quicker decomposition Of the dead and
absorption by the soil, which, after q
suitable time, would be again fit for
use.

THE INFLUENCE OF LAND.
Highest Type of Manhood Comes from
the Country Where There In
Room for Action.

The causes which control the ebb and
flow of humanity between city and coup-
try are among the most subtitle and OBJ
scure OF social phenomena, says the
San Francisco Chronicle. The charac-
teristic of the people of all new coun-
tries is vigor. 1t is due to the abund-
ance of land for all the people, and the
action and reaction between land and
man. The life Of new countries is rude.
but the nour1shment is abundant, and
the pure air sends pure blood coursinS
through the veins. The result is a racs
of strong men. When class distinctions
are marked the gentry gain culture
without losing strength. That is the
highest type of manhood. 1t was seen
in the pre-Augustan age of Rome, in the
chivalry of medieval western Europe,
in the planters of our own southern
states in the first half of the nineteenth
century. The development of the high
est type of manhood involves the con-
demnation of the majority to a rude and
laborious life. But such men can be
propagated from generation to genera
ton only so long as they remain in their
rural environment. In the cities degen-
Grafton occurs. Here and there vigor Is
transmitted through several genera
lions of city bred men, at least in indi
viduals, who maintain the family name
and standing. The tendency is to de-
generation, and the mass yields to the
tendency. The result is seen in the
slums and the potter's field. The new
men who dominate the cities-at least
in America-are country bred

TRIP TO THE DENTISTS.
Western Woman Rode Her Pony Sixty
Miles to Have Her Teeth
Fixed.

"Fhe experiences of city bred girl
on a western ranch are positively
thrilling to me-" remarked the woman
who was reading letter from friend
of her youth, to the Philadelphia Rec
ord. Nov this friend of mine, so she
writes, found herself in need of the
attention of dentist Did she call a
cab or hail a trolley car? She did not.
Rather, she had her pony saddled early
in the morning and rode Is miles to
the nearest doctor of dentistry-Only
it was 80 miles, because she had to go
five miles out Of her way on account
of the freshets. Instead of resting at
her destination she barely had time
to eat a bite when she resigned herself
to the filing, scraping, buzz-sawing
and hammering which is the lot of the
victim of aillng molars. A few hours
of this modern mode of torture and
she was again in the saddle, with the
refreshed pony setting out CALAMITY
to complete his 60 miles. Equines
have way of being 1ight-footed when
their heads are turned homeward AS
for his rider, husband and three
babies anxiously awaited her in the
cool, mysterious moonlight"

To the Readers and Editor Public Opinion.

l see by your paper that | am &C
cused by B. O.. Marsh of making a
false statement in regard TO selling a
piano to Mrs. Ed. Hardness, Mabel,
MINI. Il do not claim to have sold
this party piano, and have never
met the lady, and have not made a
statement in Public Opinion to that
effect But | did sell a Kimball
piano to Mrs. Eta Hardness of that
place.
The terrible charge that am accused
of occurred through an error of prin-
ter at the DEBORAH Republican reading
the name Ed Hardness instead of Eta
Hardness and this is the only paper
that made this terrific mistake.
We have however pardoned this
printer as we found the crime to be of
a mild form, consequently take the
bitter medicine alone.
We are of the opinion the accuser is
little impetuous and has not feel
ings befitting our common nature
Below we give names of persons in the
city of DEBORAH who have recently
bought and placed in their beautiful
homes the famous Kimball pianos:
