Many southern newspapers, as well as a southern bishop, vigorously resent Mir. Rockefeller's large donation for the study and prevention of the hook worm. It is only another way. they say, of calling attention to the fact that the people Of the south are less energetic than those of other sections of the country. In their wrath these papers say that money acquired as MT Rockefeller's has been is not wanted anyway. MT. Rockefeller's mo- tive is certainly not understood. Prodi gal as he is Of his great wealth. he would hardly spend several million dollars advertising his belief that laZiness is peculiar to the south. As to the character of his money, tainted dollar is as deadly to the hOOk-worm as any other kind

a better era for the whole world. Among the benefits to accrue to man. kind he foresees a return to or rather an requirement. by the masses. of of power which has hitherto been held and exercised by the classes.
 MT. Bryan cited the upheaval in Turkey and the improved condition with respect to government, of the people Of Japan and China, and he alluded to the growing clamor of the people everywhere for rights which had lapsed or which they had never exercised.
 The remarks of MT. Bryan. we do not think. could apply to this country for, himself and others. to the contrary there is no division of population in- to masses and classes so far as gov e-nment is concerned. our population itself is a mass. constantly changing so that those who appear to be of the class today. may tomorrow become in- volved in the mass again.
 By superior energy. skill and in- telligence. supplemented by adven- titious circumstances. one may rise above his fellows and for the moment look down upon them. but he is all ways helpless. dependent upon them for any power he may exercise in the government of them. That is. he may at any moment be pulled down into the mass whence he rose
 We do not know whether Mir Bryan repeated il in his banquet speech at Mesa, but one of his slogans of the late national campaign was Let the People Rule" With that sentiment all will agree and all will admit the inference that they do not always rule. though they are supposed to do SO
 But there is no institution which deprives them of their share in the government They are not pressed down by any class nor are those who are momentarily elevated to positions of power raised by class influence. They are elevated by the masses. sometimes wisely and sometimes un- wisely.
 But it may be assumed for the sake of meeting on this question that there are masses and classes in this coun- try. If so. it must be conceded that the class is composed of those who have become powerful through wealth and who are alleged by means of their great wealth to secure legislation favorable to them and oppressive of the so-called masses.
 Undoubtedly special interests have frequently been favored by legislation and special privileges" have been ex- tended, but no legislative act has ever sought to remove a jOt or little of the power that belong to Mir Bryan's masses. None has ever sought to give his classes a more influential voice in the government
 If the people have at times un- wisely used their power and dele gated it to improper men, they have done so at the instance of designing politicians who pretended to be of the masses and were Of the masses.
 Class in society is necessarily an in stitution more or less formally es- tablished. There is no such institu- tion in this country and there never can be unless the masses create il.

CoNSTANTINOPLE, April 2O.-Grand
Vizier Tewfik Pasha is reported to
have resigned and to be now conferring
at the Yildiz Kiosk with the Sultan, re-
garding the city's surrender.
The abdication of the Sultan is mo-
mentarily expected. Representatives of
the Young Turks are said TO be at the
palace, awaiting the Sultan's decision.
The Sultan is trying TO induce EiIrui
Pasha to resume the grand viziership
as a token to the Young Turks of his
willingness 10 DO anything they demand.
Hilni 5ucceeded Kianil Pasha as grand
vizier. being named by the Young Turks
and held office until last weeks upris-
ing. He announces that he will not re-
sumo his office until the Young Turks
resume their control of the government.
Edhem Pasha, the new minister OF

MUCH ANKIETYFE
FOR MISSES BREWER
Friends Fear They Will Not
Escape Turkish
MaSSacreS.

While Justice Brewer has received
word that his sisters, Miss Elizabeth
Brewer and Miss Adele Brewer, are
about to leave Tarsus' for a tour o.
Europe. considerable anxiety IS felt by
members Of the family for their safety
and ultimate escape of the Turkish up
rising.
1t is known that this tour was planned
before the rioting began, but fear now
is that they will be unable to escape
from the district about Tarsus and
Adana without injury.
Miss Adele Brewer has been a teacher
in St Paul Institute. the American col
iege, in Tarsus, for several years. She
lad returned 10 her post but a few
months before the trouble in Turkey
began, and her sister left Washington
only a few weeks ago to join her, Miss
Adele Brewers health having not been
good for some time
In the first uprising at Adana. both
sisters escaped injury. but confirmation
has been received in Boston OF the death
Of d. Minor Rogers. of Meriden, Conn,
and another missionary, believed to be
GerD2an. in addition TO the several
score of Armenians who are said to
have been killed
Turkish hatred of the Armenians is
such that while 1t is believed at the
State department the Misses Brewer
and other Americans viii be able to de-
part peaceably, there still Is grave dan
ger that they may be caught IN a mas
sacre intended Tor the determination
of more Of the Christian Armenians.
For that reason the many Washington
friends of both the women are hoping
they r.il be able to get into safe ter
ritory and within protection Of a stable
government before the Turkish troubles
have reached a climax.

cused OF drugging and bertaying hev,
ana who last week pleaded guilty TO
manslaughter in the first degree. went
out of the criminal branch OF the Su-
prerne Court a free woman this after
noon.
In one OF the most impressive scenes
ever Witnessed in the gloomy criminal
courts building, Justice Blanchard, who
had investigated the case thoroughly,
suspended sentence on the young
woman. and she was turned over TO the
Society for the protection OF Jewish
Women, who took her at once cut of
New York TO a country retreat, where
she will be given an opportunity TO re-
cover her health and reason and take
care Of her child.
There were some tightly women pres
ent in the court room when Sarah Koten
was led into the prisoners box. She
carried her baby closely against her
breast, and gazed with frightened eyes
at the stern robed justice as he took
his seat.
Pause in Court.
There was an impressive pause, and
then the justice began to speak in a
slow voice that at times seemed to
catch in his throat.
Il have carefully examined every fea-
ture Of this case" ne said. "and I have
come TO the conclusion that this woman
is far more sinned against than sin
ming. II is very plain that she is not
a criminal at heart. When she fired
the shot that ended the life % her be-
ira n in
her heart. She had been so crazed by
her terrible experience that she did not
know what she was doing. No woman
who was ever enticed into brOthel
has suffered more than she has, and no
woman ever had such a terrible advan-
tage taken OF her"
