FOREIGN OFFICERS FOR MACEDONIA
It is easy to speculate on the changes which
one would wish to see in Macedonia There are
national aspirations to satisfy. there is people
with political capacity to train in the art
of self government, there is potentially rich
province to rescue from misery and stagnatIon-
But a sweeping change means and it may
be something better than cowarGice or ind1ner-
ence which hasitates to repeat the terrible
periences of 1877. The problem undoubtedly IS
to find, not the ideal SO ution, but the minimum
of reform which would make the condition OF
Macedonia teierable, without appeal to arms.
Racial ideals apart, the beginning of all reform
IN Macedonia is to guarantee some elementary
security to life and property. 1t is not mainly a
question of Creeds, for in different degrees Chris
tans and MOsle1ns suffer alike. The miserable
viIager finds himself the prey of three classes OF
brigands. He is at the mercy of Bulgarian
bands, half patriots half robbers, rendered des-
perate by intolerable wrongs, and bent only on
making his evil plight SO intolerable that Europe
must intervene. If he receives them with favor,
the Turk will exact reckoning. If he turns
the cold shoulder, the band itself will wreak
vengeance. In the western districts the Alban-
ians primitive bandits with no claim whatever
to any lofty motive levy a still crueller tribute
property, chastity and ife. Lastly. there Is
the Turkish official and the Turkish gendarne,
who CLEAN where the Albanian and the Bulga-
rian have reaped. At the best, these unpaid
with in their hands must live on the
country; at the worst, they may saCs-y tnelr
greed and their lust with little check. The first
reform then, IS to create q trustworthy ponce
which viii at least keep the peace and guarantee
TO the peasant his harvest, to his wife her vlr-
tue, and to both their precarioUS lives The only
way to effect this, 4 correspondent points out,
who writes to the Daily News from COnstant-
nopIe with authority and knowledge. is TO create
a strong gendarrnerie under reliable European
officers. The material is to be had in abun-
dance. The Turkish peasant-soldier is naturally
both kindly and OOedient. 1t is only necessary
pay him regularly and to set reliable officers
over him. The gendarmerie organized in Crete
under Italian chiefs has proved a complete sue
cess, and doubtless a similar but, of course,
much stronger force in Macedonia, Officered by
picked men provided by neutral State,
could achieve no less.-tThe Speaker.

pronounced success, and its various
departments now embrace all The
branches OF modern education from
the higher scientific branches 10 the

ing school, making it one of the most
complete universities In the country.
To this curriculum has now been
added III the line of practical work a

ing Of one hundred lectures, or day,
by specialists on such subjects as ami
maj breeding and feeding, poultry
industry, dairying horticulture, vet.

ed by actual work in the University

This is bringing practical education
down to the ground, SO TO speak. The
