Young Turks party Of Turkey is pre-
pairing II fight the Gar.
Russia must be driven out Of Persia.
the Young Turks say. before the re-
forms planned for that country can be
effected.
With Russian influence DESTROYED in
Persia, the Turks propose to form a
kind Of protectorate at Teheran. where
for months bloody conflict has ragged
between the revolUtionists and the loyal
ists- until the Persians are strong
enough to care for themselves.
With a part Of his country in rebel
Hon and nearly his entire army in multi
ny. the Young Turks think It will be
an easy matter to crush any opposition
the Shah may offer to their progress
But Russia, it is conceded. will fight
hard.
The Turkish occupation of the dis
puted territory within what the Shah
claims as his boundary at Urn .ah was
direct challenge to the Car, and one
which, before the war with JaDan
would have been followed by an irnne-
date concentration Of Russian troops
in the Caucasus
Ihe Car did attempt a bluff at con-
cehtraung troops, which Turkey an
sWSFed with such an increase in her
soldiers at Van and on the verv shores
OF Lake Urmiah as to completely over
shadow the additions to the AIusco-
vite force
The Young Turks are firm in the be-
lief that they can whip the Car. Their
army is well organized, and the men are
lnhamed with patriotism unusual IN
the Turkish history while the Russian
army IS dtsorganized, discontented. and

another visit to Sheriff Iaukea yester-
dav afternoon, after having already
visited the office with Rev. DR.. Dore'
mus Scudder Mr.. Rietow is anxious
to have the other curjo stores prevent
ed from opening on Sundays, which is
against the law.
The Sheriff pointed out that he had
already done all that he could in the
matter. that where he made arrests
only nominal fines were imposed. and
that the County Attorney had mol
pressed one of the eases.
He brought to Mr.. Rietow s atten-
ton the fact that, while he had ex-
pressed his opinion against the Sher-
ifs enforcement of one law not so
very long ago, he was anxious to have
this particular law enforced to the
limit
The Sheriff expressed himself as in
sympathy with Mr. Rietow's position,
which is that of a man who loses bust
ness by a competitor s infringement of
the law and whose only recourse is
also to break the law, by doing which
he would stultify himself after having
taken the position he has.
Iaukea again suggested that Mr.. RE
tow make a personal matter of it and
swear out warrant for the arrest of
the offenders, but the latter is. averse
to doing this and so the matter stands
Just where it was. Gas a matter of
fact said the Sheriff, this is a law
that IS honored far more in the breach
than in the keeping. and I am unable
to see what more can do in the mat
