Guns Hidden in Woods.

Comparatively few guns have been sur
rendered and even a smaller number have
been found by searching parties. The
rest arc buried in the woods, ready for
use whenever favorable opportunity is
offered to show their resentment against
the new government.
1t would not be difficult to point out
other mistakes. but none so serious as
these. And, taking all in all. there has
been a decided improvement in conditions.
The finances are in good shape. the taxes
are honestly collected and the money is
honestly expended. The increase in the
revenues is remarkable. and the importers
and other taxpayers no longer complain
of favoritism.
Another sign of progress is the respect
which the officials show to the public
and that is much appreciated There is
still some complaint concerning the ad-
ministration of justice, but such troubles
will naturally correct themselves with
changes in the personnel of the judiciary
At any rate. the least that can be said is
that the courts are no longer used for
political purposes or for blackmail or per-
secutiOn.
The present governmf mt is the best Tur-
key has ever had. and, as Sir Edwin
Pears. the venerable correspondent Of the
London Times. SAYS: Its faults are
those of ineXperie which time will
cure. Experience will give the ministers
greater courage to accept responsibility
and they and the masses of the people
are gradually gaining confidence in each
other and in themselves"
