ROME, September 16.-There are IN.
dications that the example set by Ger
many in demanding compensation for
the French occupation of Morocco may
stimulate the ambitions of other pow
ers regarding Africa
The autumn may not pass without
developments in regard to Tripoli,
which, judging by the preparations
now being made in this country, may
take the form of the expedition of an
Italian army corps, accompanied by q
squadron of the Italian fleet.
The Italian Government and people
were sincere when, for years, they de
clared to Turkey that they had no in
tention of occupying Tripoli-on condi-
ton, of course, that the equilibrium of
the Mediterranean and the integrity of
the Ottoman Empire was respected by
other countries. There was only one
occasion, about ten years ago, when
the late Marquis Prinetti, a most ener-
getic Minister of Foreign Affairs, be-
coming tired of the constant pin-pricks
that Italy received from Turkey and
the opposition of the latter to any
peaceful expansion of Italian influence
in the east and north of Africa, pre-
pared an expedition for the military
occupation of Tripoli; but his illness
and death prevented the accomplish
ment of the project.
1t was Prinetti who concluded with
France the agreement by which, while
Italy declared that she was herself
disinterested in Tunis, where in the
past she had had considerable infiu
ence, France, in return, acknowledged
the predominant rights of Italy over
Tripoii
However, since that time no Cabinet
here has seriously thought of under.
taking the occupation of Tripoli-on
condition, of course, that there was no
danger of its falling into the hands Of
any other power, as it is the last rem
nant on the coast of North Africa
which is left unoccupied by a Euro
pean power, and if it should become
English or German or French, Italy
would be shut up in the Mediterranean
as in an iron belt.
Meanwhile different Italian Ambas
sailors at Constantinople have tried t
explain this situation to the TurkisJ
Government, adding that the increas
of Italian interests and enterprises il
Tripoli would insure the territory re
naming under Ottaman rule, as, Will,
Italy did not desire the actual occu
patton of the country, the greater tn,

certain as fate that loose and idle
criticism OF defenses of officials would

standpoint Of good government and

When municipal government is taken

Laundry stamped for Identifying.

In foreign countries some strange
methods are adopted for Identifying
the contents OF the washtub. In some
parts of France linen is defaced with
the whole name and address of the
laundry stamped upon 1t, and an ad-
ditional geometrical design to indicate
the owner of the property. In Bavaria
every patron of the washtub has a
number stamped in large characters
on his linen. In Bulgaria every laun.
dry has large number Of stamps en-
graved with designs, and in Russia
the Iaundries mark linen with threads
worked In arrow shapes, In some
Russian towns the police periodically
issue regulations for laundries.

OF great moment to all classes of
citizens is the rapid strides being
made by municipalities in every sec
tion of the country In the common
undertaking to bring something in the
nature of pure government. There
fore the Spokane system, recently es-
tablished. is worth considering.
The Spokane system is an improve
ment on anything yet undertaken
along commission lines, and largely
for this reason The makers of the
Spokane charter recorgnized the great
est evils in municipal government
secrecy and spoiIs-and boldly set
themselves the task of roofing them
out
The result is that in Spokane there
is no. such thing as partisanship. city
printing or secrecy A candidate for
Office makes oath that he does not
represent any partisan organization
and is the candidate Of no party. And
the commissioners, once In Office have
no city printing to award and are ex.
pressly forbidden to hold anything but
open meetings, every act of which
must be published in the Official Ca
zette. publication that Is published
by the municipality. carries the public
printing and goes to every voter in the
city.
Mark we'll our prophesy- Spokane
is going to have good government 1t
cant fail if the people who sustained
such a reform as this go in the same
spirit. The World speaks with an
authority born of ample experience
and more observation when it asserts
unqualifedB that ninety per cent Of
the munici1ailhroils are caused by the
method of awarding the public print

litieal movement that is not even yet

which were drawn in. but at the bot
ton was this and nothing more. Tn.
derstand, the World makes no com
ment as to the merit of the fight: it
simply states fact to point moral.

be awarded then it would follow as
