FRANCE IN MOROCCO.

The concessions made by France to
Germany in Morocco, eliminating in a
conference and Delcassc's resignation
have not availed to prevent the French
government from being drawn by Ger
man policy in North Africa to the very
verge of a military demonstration on
the Algerian frontier, step whose con-
sequence no one can predict.
The one important factor which inhu.
ences both France and Germany in
Morocco, as Mr.. Ion Perdicaris has
pointed out in his article on "The Dis
integration of Morocco, Tin the Inter
national Quarterly" is the possibility
of profits to their citizens in concessions
incident to the Development of back
ward country. France hoped to monop-
olize these concessions, under the agree
ment with England. Germany insist.
ed on being recognized, and demanded
an international congress to decide the
future of Morocco.
Were such a conference, as Mr.. Per
dicaris has suggested, to assume a Ger.
tain guardianship over Morocco, making
the ill.goyerned land a ward among
nations, the world would gain. Nor is
there any reason to prevent the United
States from aiding such project with
its moral support.
But such course presuppOses that,
pending the conference, no country shall
seek concessions or disturb the exist
ing situation. If France expected this
of Germany it showed a similar want
of knowledge of either German manners
of methods. The German Minister in
Morocco has steadily pushed on. A
German concession for building a quay
in Tangier-greatly needed gives a
German grip on the management of
the trade in the chief Moorish port A
loan of S2,5OO,OOO to the Sultan, Abdul
Aziz, personally" gives German con-
troll of his personal revenue and ex-
penditure. In this way this is handler
for diplomatic influence han the loan
of sl2, 100000 made by the French to
the state.

steps, and the sultan emancipated
from the fear of French and English
BY pressure by his German friends, has
resented the aid many Algerians have
given the pretender. now in rebellion
against him by seiEing the leading
figure among the Algerians in North
Morocco. While this revives Moorish
claim of soveeignety over all Moslems
by virtue of their religion, it is gross
violation of French ex.territorial rights
and an open and flagrant insult TO the
French flag.
Nothing possibly remains for France
but demand on the Sultan for idem'
nifty, under penalty of occupying by
a military force, town near
the Algerian frontier, oudja. The
Moorish government will doubt,
less yield, but the step is an extreme
one. and it brings France across the
path of Germany, perilous position,
Turkey will use the influence of the
powers to perpetuate his own plum
der, oppression and misgovernment.

UNFAIR POLITICS.

Ever since the land fraud investiga-
tions began in Portland there has been
an effort on the part of some to con.
meet Senator Fulton with these trans
actions and the old gang who have been
whipped time and again to standstill.
and who are doing all in their power to
get once more in the saddle, have left
no stone unturned TO accomplish thi,
end. Now comes the report from Port
land emanating from the grand jury and
telegraphed all over the country, as
though great crime had been commit
ted. that he wrote letter for one of
the men indicted to the secretary of the
interior, stating that he was an honor
able man and that the claims held by
him under supension be given the at
tention of the department at an early
date. Now what harm is there in this :.
An old friend of the senator comes to
him and asks that he help him get his
matters promptly attended to by the
department, just the same as thousands
of people have done before and will do
hereafter. There is not day passes
but that Senator Fulton has requests
made from business people, old soldiers,
commercial bodies, etc, asking that ne
take up matters with the authorities
at Washington in which they are in
terested. and if he did not give them
proper attention his stay in Washing
ton would be short, for is he not the
servant of the people!
The latest effort to besmireh Senator
Fulton's character is probably done to
discredit his influence in Washington in
the matter Of the appointment of a
United States federal judge.
