A study Of newspapers east and

indicate a growing sentiment that,
while this republic holds out hands

able element among immigrants. it
may be compelled in self-defense at

soberly whether it will be helped or
hurt by the tremendous thrush of I'M

of taking out naturalization papers

there is another element, almost ap-'

fearsome silence, which seems like
some gruesome specter phantom, white

is an outing that takes a man of abso-

this dangerous country takes his life
in his hands. And yet men have for
gotten all trials, have put aside every
human attachment, and, leaving the
land Of comfort and pleasure, have
sailed away to a region that is fraught
with danger and death. And all this

RETURN OF THE CRAWLING.
Fishing Again Good Where Lumber

Fishing Again Good Where Lumber
lag Had Ru1aed It.
Both grayling and trout fishing are
excellent again in the Michigan woods,
in the Pigeon River district" said a
Michigan man In the Philadelphia
Ledger, "since the railroads went into
the lumber woods and did away with
logging in the streams 1t was to the
choking and jamming OF the streams
and the blowing and tearing up Of their
beds by the interminable log drives
that the apparent humiliation of trout
and grayling in their favorite haunts
for years was due. The lumbermen
found that they could get their logs
to the mills quicker, safer and cheaper
by building railroads into the woods,
and, consequently, most of the streams
have been abandoned to the possession
Of their native fish again.
1.-THE marvellous recuperative power
Of trout and their kind when not inter
fered with by unnatural causes Is dem
onstrated in convincing manner by
the extraordinary recovery Of these
Michigan streams from apparent ster-
ility to fertility in trout and grayling.
A catch Of grayling In Pigeon River,
made by Colonel Park, OF Columbus,
Ohio, numbered thirty-three, and
weighed, after 800 miles Of transpor-
tation, over thirty-six pounds, an I'M
usual average for that fish.
Colonel Park also killed a nineteen
inch graying, the largest ever taken
from Pigeon River 1t rose to the fly
before the fly had reached the water
and struck it in midair. The big gray.
ling was landed after a severe and ex-
citing struggle. The weight of the
fish was nearly three pounds and leads
the record"

A complete explanation of the out
RACES in Macedonia Is not easy to
frame, because there are SO many rea-
sons for the conditions In European
Turkey. In the first place, it should
be noted that the district Is inhabited
by hostile and jealous races. Turks,
Albanians, Servians, Bulgarians.
Greeks, and few others live side by
side, each with peculiar customs, and
each dissatisfied with the rule Of the
Sultan. Then they have not the same
religion. The Mohammedan looks
down on the Christian and the Jew;
the Greek Christian cannot tolerate
the Protestant, and the Catholic re-
CARDS the Armenian as hereto. The
task of governing population Of hos
tile races, with differing religions, all
within a comparatively narrow area,
is difficult at best. But Turkish gov
eminent is bad The administration
Of justice Is 80 uncertain that the for
eign powers have insisted that their
citizens accused Of crime shall be tried
in consular courts. But the Turkish
subject must submit to the judicial
imperfections Of the native courts.
Consequently justice, as the American
understands it, is unknown to the av-
erage subject of the Sultan. Along
with the corrupt and procrastinating
courts the people have to endure the
extortion of the tax-gatherers, who
levy what taxes they choose without
interference from any superior 80 long
as the required sum is sent to Con-
stantinople. Out of the uncertainties
of the financial administration have
developed the complications arising
from an unpaid and dissatisfied army,
to say nothing of unpaid officials in
all other departments. Then, to cap
the pyramid of folly, the Sultan at
tempts to look after all the details of
administrai ton, task beyond the
physical power Of any man. Impor-
tant matters are delayed, and the i'm
patient people take things into their
own hands. On this fertile field Of
discomfort the political agitator sows
his seed of Instruction. It was the
Macedonian revolutionary committee
which held Miss Stone, the mission
airy, for q ransom, that 1t might get
money to carry on its work. The pa
triots on occasion pose as brigands,
and brigands, when it serves their
purpose, call themselves patriots. In
the hope of lettering matters, Austria
and Russia prepared a plan last win
~ 49,
cial and civil administration of the
district, and the Sultan accepted 1t.
So far as the plan was applied it fail
ed to pacify the discontinued. and ser1-
GUS instruction began in August.
What the outcome will be is useless
to prophesy. We know only that trou-
BILE will continue until the district is
governed by a strong man who does
justly and loves mercy.

The subject Of advertising is yet In
| its infancy, says the Davenport Qa.)
Times, and we believe the time is not
! far distant when every commodity
which is for sale, every article that
can be sold, will be advertised Hence
| the necessity Of every merchant and
business man becoming familiar with
what is proving the greatest business
problem of the age and the motive
| power which moves thousands Of fac
tory wheels and makes millions Of
dollars for those who use it. Every
man who has ambition to succeed, to
push ahead, to become influential and
wealthy, must use the modern machin-
cry at hand to accomplish such a pur-
| pose.
The profits Of advertising are not di-
rect, as the returns from a sale. New
ertheless, when the proper medium
for bringing an advertisement before
the public Is selected the profits are
usually immediate, although, Of course,
they come in a roundabout manner.
II at times they seem delayed it Is
because the merchants announcement
did not reach the people whose patron
age he seeks or because there is no
pressing demand for the special line
Of wares which he may have for sale.
In either case the profit is sure to
come eventually; for the purpose Of
advertising is to awaken interest In
the bridesmaids goods, and once hav-
ing aroused that interest the wary
merchant will perceive the necessity
Of sustaining it result sure to be
attained by persistent use of great
newspapers advertising columns.
