f cerning the preparations of the Turk ish authorities to put an end, once fog
 all to Aremenian discontent with their barbarous rule by putting an end to the Armenians themselves. Fate ha- been against the Armenians on all sides. Divided between Russia, Tur-
 key and Persia, in the last named country alone have they received faI1 and sympathetic treatment. The poli- tical conditions, however, in Persia, and it's relations to the other two couu- tries, have prevented it from aiding in any way the persecuted Armenians
 across its borders. Abandoned entire ly by Europe, they have been given over, like sheep to the slaughter. The Sultan knows well with whom
 he has to deal. Any attempt at active
 physical intervention in behalf of the Arntenians or the other races under his
 oppressive sway would be the signal for
 the suspension of payment on all his
 pecuniary obligations to his European
 creditors. That is the whip which he
 holds over them and their governments, and 1t is a more effective weapon than all the cannon in the forts of the Dar-
 danelles or the MaUsers in the hands Cf his soldiers.
 Russia is. of course. the last country to which the Armenians can now turn for sympathy or aid. The sixty mil lions of dollars of Armenian church property in the pockets of the Russian government are a guarantee to the Sultan that there will be no interfer- ence by Russia with whatever he may do in Armenia; and there is no danger that any of the governments of Wes- tern Europe will intervene. The same reasons that held them back in 1S9C are holding them back now, and will continue to hold them back until the moral sense of Europe is really av ak ened.
 As for the leaders of the Armenian people, they have long since lost ,lI illusions about the fate of their nption. A few years ago there was in the mon astery of Etchmiadzin, in the Trans Caucausus, painting by an Armenian artist of an Armenian church standing solitary in a great graveyard wherein appeared a single gravestone with an inscription to the memory of the article in the Treaty of Berlin guaranteeing the lives and liberty or the Armenian people.-New York Sun.

TIE DEVASTATION OF ARMENIA,

The eXtermination of the Armenian people proceeds at a rapid rate, thanks to the complicity of Europe in the crimes of the occupant of the imperial kiosk on the Bosphorus. According to official information received by the French foreign office, the remnant of the unfortunate race inhabiting the mountainous region of Sassun in Asia Minor that escaped the knife of the Kurd in 1896 has been delivered over to butchery by the Ottoman soldiery: as a dispatch says, "the action of the Turks has been sweeping" and the work of exterminating the Armenians in the mountainous districts of Sas- sun has been accomplished"
 This news cannot be said to be un- expected. for at intervals during the winter just past dispatches have ap- peared in the European papers con-

FEARLESSNESS Is NOT BRAVERY.

Just now when so much is be-
ing said of the bravery of the

sailors, the Boston Herald clearly
demonstrates that fearlesspess does
not arise from special nobility of
character nor is It the result of
civilization and education. In tue
great naval battles that have oc.
Cured in the East, as in the great
land battles, no doubt the Rus

anese, SO do the common soldiers
and sailors of most civilized peo-
pies and many semi-civilized and
barbarian peoples, No people in
the world meet death with more
nonchalance or more grim stoi-
cism, than the Turks or our North
American Indians. To die reck-
lessly in battle is q common trait,
and argues no specia! nobility in
character. Least of all does it
give any indication of the right
eoushess of a cause, or possession
of the traits that make for the
glory of a nation in peace. To

possession of Christian, or even of
moral virtues. Bad men have it

TO CONTINUE.

President Roosevelt's letter of
acceptance of the Republican NOM
ination has been made public.
The letter is very lengthy. Its
opening statement is: "Our ac-
tions speak louder than our words
for the faith that is within us.
We base our appeal for support
upon what we have done and what
we are doing, upon our record Of
administration and legislation
during the seven years in which
we have had complete control of
the government. We intend in
tho future to carry on the govern
ment in the same way we have
carried it on in the past.
If the extravaganza and i'm
perialism of the Republican adj
ministratiun is to continue in the
future as it has in the past, then
the government will become bank
rupt.
Judge Alton B. Parker, in his
speech to the notification commit
zee some weeks ago, said. "The
governmental expenditures last
year mounted up to $3.50, 900, 900,
which is not equalled by any year
since the civil war, with the ex-
ception of the year of the Spanish
war"
That is fact which the official
figures will substantiate. Presi-
dent Roosevelt, however, stands
pat. He declares that the same
sort of a bill will be handed to
Uncle Sam for payment next year
if the Republican party is victori-
Gus in November.
The War Department cost the
taxpayers last year $115, 1000, 900,
which is nearly three times the
cost of the same department the
last year of the Cleveland admin
istration.
The expenditures last year, I'M
der the head of miscellaneous and
civil, were 100000. For the
last year of the Cleveland admin
istration they were only $80,000,-
600.
The Navy Department last year
called for 100000. For the
last year of the Cleveland admin
istration the expenditures on ac-
count Of this department we've
$34 100000.
By one stroke of his pen Pres
ident Roosevelt added $4,000, 900
to the pension roll.
He now declares that the gov
eminent has been run economical
lY in the face of the fact that he
spent 100000 for a stable and
wasted money Oh other useless
ornaments about the White House.

A FEW SUGGESTIONS.

EDITOR JOURNAL-W men came
South, / came to be of help and
to do all I could to get Northern
people here, and am doing all |
can for the South, writing articles
for the best Northern papers to
induce Northern people to come to
! the Sunny South, and am having
placed in each Northern town and
city, at my own expense, a poster
inducing Northern people to come
South. Now, good people of Ma
rietta and surrounding country,
as long as / have made out to the
Northern people that the Southern
people are angels, there is one
thing | would like for the South
ern people to do and that is this,
when Northern people come South
is not to ask too much for the
farms you have for sale. What [
mean is this, sell your property as
cheap to q Northern man as you
would a Southern man. | have
heard of men who come South and
were asked from $500 to $1,000
more than they ever did South
ern man-myself being included
God is no respecter of persons,
! North or South, and we should
not be. Another thing l wish was
done here, and that is when the
real estate men sell land to North
ern people is not to drop them as
soon as they have made a trade;
but look after them, tell them
what to plant, when to plant, help
them to make life a success here.
II people come here and make
failures. they will be discouraged
and return North-that will keep
others from coming.
When III Huntsville, Ala, last
fall, I could not help notice how
the real estate men were doing
visiting the Northern people often
and lnstructing them, and all who
had bought seemed prosperous and
happy land would not return North
again for anything.
Don't let us forget the canning
factory. There are many North
ern people coming South this fall.
Let some real estate man keep
this canning factory before the
Northern people and induce some
one to start one here. Look what
a canning factory has done this
year in Benton Harbor, Michigan:
They put up 100000 cans of
plums, all of which were sold, also
10000 cans of English peas, and
the growers received On an aver
age of $40 per acre on English
peas. Here you could beat that,
because you can grow two crops
each season. Another enterprise
here with the canning factory
would be making peach baskets
and crates. And why not have
the real estate men induce some
Northern person to grow roses here
to sell? A firm in Springfield, O.,
has out over one million rose
bushes in the state of Mississippi,
and they are making money.
Let all the people pull together.
Get every good thing they can to
come TO Marietta, and by so doing
make it the most prosperous city
IN the South and the garden spot
of America.
And to all strangers-North or
South-who come to Marietta l
am ready to give them a person al
invitation to the different Church
es. No matter what Church they
belong TO, l introduce them to the
members and pastors and see they
are made to feel at home. | am
