The spirit of revolt among the peo-
pie OF M~onastir, the storm center OF
opposition to continued ~despotism In
Turkey, has accomplished m result
for which missionaries and friends of
humanity have labored for more than
a century. Ii has led the women of
that part OF Turkey to throw aside
their wells, the wearing of which is
enjoined by the Koran. The custom
has beer followed for ages, the Moslem
insistence upon It's observation being
so emphatic that the woman who VIC
lated the rule was either killed or
subjected to the most degrading hu-
initiation.
The veil has been the badge of
woman's inferiority and her acceptance
Of 1t for centuries is explained only
by her belief and conviction that 1t
was a part Of the Moslem religion.
The Young Turkey" organization Of
reformers has played a master stroke
by offering q new Interpretation OF
the Koran by which It is asserted that
the wearing Of the veil was not made
obligatory by the Koran, but has been
used by the rulers to keep the women
Of the empire in subsection and to
deprive them Of their rights. The
women have accepted the new teach
ing. The dispatches describe them as
throwing away their wells and going
about with smiling faces, while the
people generally accept their enamel
patton as one Of the most encouraging
signs of the progress of reform.
History shows that the progress OF
civilization In all nations has been
gagged by the degree of liberty OF
thought and action granted to women.
China's most rapid progress has been
made since the decree of the dowager
empress against 200 binding, a Gus
ton that has prevailed in China since
the dawn of history. Throughout the
world, particularly in the orient, the
larger measure of freedom and liberty
youchsafed to women has marked the
advancement of nations and the eman-
cipation of the women OF Turkey Is
the strongest indication Of the passing
of despotism In that country and the
worldwide growth of the principles OF
liberty.

LORD oRoMER's WARNING.

Lord Cromer's warning, in a speech
In opposition to the passage of the old
age pension bill, that England is max
ing a fatal error in depicting its treas
ury for civic purposes when It should
be saving money for a waA which
seems more or less probable In the not
distant future, is causing much COM
ment and discussion, not only In Eng
land, but In the diplomatic circles OF
the world. The hint is not new, az
magazines and British newspapers have
been full of similar warnings for some
months. but it carries special signif-
canoe, as Lord Cromer Is one Of the
few men in British public life whose
words command attention. He is the
hrst OF the British officials to place IN
direct words the facts about condi-
tions that other oficiGls have spoken
of only In evasive terms. Lord
Cromer makes a formal and en-
phatic protest against the course
Of the liberal government in depict
ing the resources of the exchequer
when there is a prospect that the
awful day may soon come when every
English shilling that can be raised
may be needed for the defense Of the
empire.
Sir Charles Dixie. who poses IS an
expert in foreign AFFAIRS. has attempted
to counteract the effect of Lord
Cromer's address by declaring that
Great Britain is at peace with the
world and that there is not the slight
est cause for apprehension. In spite
OF this, the English people are re-
ported to be seriously aroused to the
possibilities of which Lord Cromer has
limited. Lord Cromer did not name
the power which might aus England
to enter upon a terrible war, but
every intelligent British subject un-
derstands that Germany was meant.

vi MAIL oARRIER.s TROUSERS.

The rights of an Idaho woman, pre-
sumably young and beautiful, and the
rules of the Postofice department at
Washington have clashed and other
more OF less important questions be-
fore the people may well be put aside
until this case is settled and settled
right. It appears that the government
called for letter carriers out IN the
Idaho country and held the usual civil
service examinations for applicants.
The young woman in the case took the
examination and passed with the high
est percentage, thus being placed first
on the list Of eligibles for appoint
ment.
The appointment was as good as
made and the young woman was get
ting ready to assume the duties OF the
position when some discerning clerk
in the department at Washington dis
covered that the regulations pre-
scribed that all letter carriers should
wear trousers. More than that, the
regulations describe the trousers
infinitely, setting forth the size and To-
cation of the pockets, the color and
texture Of the garment and all the
details of their ornamentation. TAX
ing It for granted that the woman
would not agree to wear the regula-
ton trousers, the postmaster general
cancelled her rating and ordered a new
examination.
The young lady objects. She has
studied the regulations of the depart
ment with marked c~arefulness and
has offered the contention that while
the department demands that trousers
be worn and has described the kind
of trousers essential to the appoint
ment, there is not a line in any of
the p~ostofice rules OF regulations
specifying that the rousers must be
worn in full view of the audience. She
insists hat as the rules do not COM
mand that the rousers shall be worn
as an outer garment, she is able and
ready and willing and even anxious
to comply with the department regu-
~lations, even to the hip pockets and
the stripes down the side. She con-
tends that she has complied with all
of the regulations of the department
and has established her qualifications
and ftness for the position by passing
a better examination than any OF the
sex that e its ~rousers outside OF
its other garments. The matter OF
wearing trousers as outer garments or
modestly concealed is n OF taste or

destinies and ambitions clash at every
turn. Only a few days ago a member
of the general stan OF the German
army issued . bulletin in which he
made an estimate of the probable cost
OF the next European war. He placed
the cost to Germany at 81, 500, 900, 900
a yea and showed that Germany
would be able to put 4,740,0OO men
in the field for such a conflict, of
which 900, 900 would probably be
killed, II the war should last for two
years.
No one will contend that England
Is prepared for such a war. The en-
pire has an insignificant army, COM
forces OF Germany and indications are
that within another FIVE years Ger
many will have the greatest navy in
the world. German military experts
figure that the emperor could send an
army Of 200, 900 men to England and
still have a reserve force large enough
to keep France and Russia sufficiently
employed to prevent them from going
to England's assistance, should they
feel so disposed. While there is APP
parently no reason for a conflict be-
tween Germany and England, history
shows that no power in Europe has
ever reached the military supremacy
which Germany has attained without
being compelled to either attack or be
attacked by England. Bourbon
France, Napoleonic France, Spain,
Holland and Russia have had this ex-
~perience, and If there is to be another
war 1t would appear to be Germany's
turn. History and experience suggest
that England should heed Lord
Cromer's warning.

i, rBRrArENEp CAR SHORTAGE,


One of the most encouraging fea-
lures of the business situation Is
found in the fact that the talk in rail-
road circles over the number OF idle
cars that have been lying on the side
tracks throughout the country for
some months has been succeeded by
serious talk of a a shortage later
in the when the crops begin NOV
ing and the delayed mercantile ship
ments are being hurried to their des-
tination. Freight movement is al
ready increasing rapidly, in spite OF
the usual midsummer dizziness and all
indications are the business will soon
be on with a rush. Discussing this
feature OF the situation, Chairman
Knapp OF the Interstate Commerce
commission, in an interview on Friday
said:

talked assure me that business Is settinS

THE noNErARY COMMISSION.

With all Of the furore that was in
dulged in over the Aldrich-Vreeland
currency law passed by the last con-
gress, Indications are that no need
will arise for the employment of the
law in the production of emergency
currency. The demand for money to
move the crops has been met without
any serious drain upon the resources
of the banks. Financial institutions
in the east, where the depression has
been felt most keenly, are gaining in
strength each day. The bank clearings
in eastern cities are getting back to
about normal conditions, while the
west has been able all along to take
care of itself.
Under the circumstances, the new
law will probably become a dead let
ter, as the Currency commission ap-
pointed by the congress is already in
dustriously engaged in collecting data
and preparing to make a report to con-
gress this winter embodying recon-
mendations for a law thoroughly re-
vising the currency system of the
country. The commission has been
divided into three subcommittee, one
of which will go abroad to study
financial laws, another will visit Can
ada to examine the banking conditions
in that country and the third will re-
main in New York, making a study
of American conditions and receiving
the opinions and testimony OF bank
ing and financial experts in this coun-
try. The entire commission Will meet
in Washington in November to frame
its report to congress.
The currency problem is one of the
most important before the country,
and 1t is gratifying to note that the
republican congress has paved the way
for It's prompt and intelligent con-
s%ideration.
