CONSTANTINOPLE, July ia
revolution against the rule of the
Young Turks is momentarily expect
ed in Turkey, and strange as it may
seem. the Turkish people are almost
a unit in praying for success for the
reactionaries. Two years ago that
the world was startled with the news
that the Young Turks had marched
into Constantinople, deposed Sultan
Abdul Hamid, placed his brother on
the Ottoman throne, and created a
form of constitutional government
with a Parliament, but the mass of
Turkish people have come to realize
that their lot has not been improved
by the change.
While the constitutional govern
ment has swept away some of the
abuses which marked the absolute
monarchy. Il has brought down upon
the Turkish people more and great
er abuses.
The parliamentary government Of
the Young Turks is an empty shell.
Martial law is still proclaimed in
Constantinople, so that persons max
ing themselves politically objection
oble to the leaders Of the Young
..crk movement can be arrested and
thrown i'm prison at Will The Young
Turks have exercised this power "a
