THE TURKISH SITUATION:
The Reaction Against the Rsformsrs
and Constitutional Government.

The Reaction Against tho Rsformsrs
and Constitutional Government.
When Turkey became an empire
with constitution and a parliament
there were many who said 1t was not
yet quite ready for such modern insti-
tutions and that ere long the ship of
state would go upon the rocks. This
has happened within less than a year.
The revolutionary events that have re-
Gently transpired represent a reaction
against the changes introduced by the
Young Turks party. headed by the COM
mittee Of union and progress. The men
at the front in the reform movement
seem to have endangered their continu-
ance in power by carrying things with
too high a hand and pursuing too die
tatorial course.
1t was on July "A. 1908, that con-
stitution was granted Turkey by the
sultan, who did not at all relish the
necessity imposed upon him by the
course Of events. Under the terms Of
this instrument elections for parlia-
ment were held In due course. The
new legislature was inaugurated Dec.
II, since when the empire has been
under a constitutional administration.
The hand of the sultan was forced
and he was obliged to give the country
a constitution by the Young Turks,

altered II the census were to be placed
on a proper basis. The bill which
recently passed both houses of con-
gress provides a special test for those
seeking admission to the service and
makes the places open to all appli
cantS.
The taking of the census is work
Of great magnitude and it will engage
the efforts Of between 5000 and 4, 1000
clerks and some 10000 enumerators. 1t
has been estimated that about 100000
persons have already been trying to
secure jobs under the director Of the
census of 1910. s. d. N. North. The
number of those employed in all ca
pacities by the bureau may reach. 1t is
said. as high as 10000 when the work
is In full swing. The work Of tabula-
ton will be much facilitated by ma
chinery which has been devised since
the taking of the last census and which
will operate to make the methods more
accurate and less expensive.
Altogether the task of making the
enumeration Of the 100000 people
In the United States, Alaska. Hawaii
and Porto Rico and in Guam. Samoa
and the Panama canal zone will be
one Of enormous proportions. 1t will
be the most gigantic work Of enumera-
ton that has ever been attempted in
this or any other country, and 1t Is in
tended to reach the acme Of correct
ness and thoroughness. Not merely q
count and compilation concerning the
population alone. 1t will include CEN
sus Of agriculture. manufactures mines
and quarries.
A census Of the Philippines will not
be included In the coming decennial
census for the reason that one was
taken In 1908. and 1t Is doubtful wheth.
er the Philippine government would
care to bear the cost Of another emu.
meration so soon.
Important changes In the taking and
compilation Of the census and In the
method Of publication Of the returns
will be made. For one thing. the re-
turns will be greatly condensed. The
twelfth census required ten volumes.
1t is the expectation Of Director North
that the thirteenth census will be pub
lished In six volumes or seven at the
outside.
The cost Of taking the census OF
1910 has been estimated at $12. 1880, 900

Since the first days Of it's success the
course of the committee and the political
activities of the Young Turks. particu-

ical sentiment, which has brought out
and crystallized the opposition Of the
Liberals.
The present internal troubles of Tur-
key really reached crisis as far back
as the middle Of February last On
the 18th day Of that month the cham
Der of deputies by an overwhelming
majority passed a vote Of lack of con-
fidence in Kiamil Pasha. the grand
vizier. and demanded that the sultan
place in his stead some one who had
the confidence Of the people, Kiamil
promptly resigned.
The next day the sultan announced
the appointment Of Hussein Hilmi
Pasha as grand vizier. and the latter
began the formation of his cabinet by
the reinstatement Of General Ali Ria
Pasha. whose dismissal as minister Of
war had precipitated the movement
against Kiamil Pasha.
While the foreign correspondents at
that time were not able to give the
true inwardness of the internal stu

present troubles are but the beginning
Of a long reign of anarchy and blood

gobbling Of Turkey by Russia. Prince

dominate the BospOrus and Palestine,
and know Russia is prepared to swal-
low the Ottoman empire as Austria

constitution Is against the MOham-

lam. which Is for the orthodox class
Of the people a terrible crime. When
the constitution was demanded and
proclaimed they did not realize that

proclaimed so solemnly, so it will

diers and officers who would rather die
than be dominated by the heretics. as
they call the liberals and the Chris

there is no doubt that the victory will
be on the side of the sultan"
The prince added that this victory
would be but temporary and that even
tually Russia would prevail and would
crush out Turkish nationality and the
reign of Islam.

terest for Americans for two
main reasons. The first Is the
fact that the movement for
more representative government under
the lead Of the Young Turk party nat
urally inspires sympathy In a country
like our own which stands pre-emi-
nently for liberty and popular govern
ment. The second is the fact that in
the revolutions and counter revolutions
of the past few weeks the lives of many
Americans have been endangered. and
some have been sacrificed to MoSlem
ferOcity and intolerance. The Amer
lean missionaries in Turkey have done
a great educational work, and this has
indirectly stimulated the movement for
reform represented in the growth of
the Young Turk party. 1t is at Mer-
sina. Tarsus and Adana that the dis
orders in connection with the recent
upheaval caused the most loss of life
among native or foreign Christians
and the most damage to property
owned by Christians. Mersina is the
seat of very important educational
and missionary work, and at Tarsus,
st. PauPs birthplace, is the st. Paul's
institute, presided over by Rev. DR..
Theodore Christie. father-inlaw of
Rev. Daniel Minor Rogers. the Amer
lean board missionary who was killed
at Adana while assisting an aged Turk

disagreement as to the real origin and
