THE ITALIAN NATION

A RIGHTEOUS WAR
The Brutal History Of Turkey, Perse-

Inspires the Fullest Confidence in
the Accusations Made by italy as
to the Guilt of the Turkish
Government.

Too many American newspapers are
inclined to condole with the so-called
woes of the weak and unhappy
Turk"
Ignorant prejudice against the Ital-
ian people has inspired half-baked and
badly informed editorial writer's to at.
tack Italy and to defend Turkey most
uniustly.
These are the facts:
The Italians were not in search o.
war. They have enough to do at home
enough need of all the national funds.
But the Italians in Tripoli, because
they were in the minority and not of
the Mohammedan faith, were treated
by the Turks uniustly, and in many
cases brutally and cruelty.
The Turks in their history had be
come so accustomed to depressing and
numbering helpless minorities that
they continued their habits in Tripoli
among the Italians, forgetting that
back of the isolated Italian colonists
in Africa there stood the Italian ma
ton. the power of the Italian army
and navy.
The Turks are learning now that to
attack Italians and ill-treat them is
very different matter from attack
ing Armenians without strength to
fight, or poverty-stricken Albanians.
The Turks are learning a lesson
that they need to learn The Italians
are to be congratulated upon giving
them that lesson.
Tripoli will be taken from Turkey
and will be put in the hands of Ital-
ians able to develop the country and
to give it decent modern government.

with the avowed intention of deyisine
ways and means for defeating the 70.
nomination of President Taft in the
national convention next year and to
secure the nomination of some other
man to head the republican ticket
While the call for the meeting was
silent as to the identity of the "other
man., the delegates seem to lie agreed
that La Toilette is to be the choice of
the republican progressives.
The plans for the conference were
worked up at the La Toilette head
quarters. Walter L. Houser, chairman
in charge of the progressive commit
tee, explains the purpose of the gath
ering as follows:
1t is now simply a question wheth-
er the great mass of republicans shall
rule the next national convention. or
whether the political organization and
the officeholders shall dominate. We
are convinced shat the people, not the
politicians, will dominate if the people
can be made to understand that they
are all agreed on what ought TO be
done. This conference is designed to
bring together the progressive repub-
licans from all parts of the country
and let each sections see that it is not
alone in opposition to the administers,
ton, but that all sections are of the
same mind.
1T is our desire to take the whole
country into our confidence. There
will be nothing in our deliberations
that the entire country can not know
nothing that We don't want it to

WOMAN ON TRIAL FOR MURDER

ontonagon, Mich, Oct. 16.-After
nearly five months spent in Jail cell,
Mrs. Laura Stannard, member of a
wealthy and prominent family OF this
section, was arraigned in the Ontona-
gon county court today to stand trial
for the alleged murder of her hus-
band. On the day of his death Charles
Stannard, the alleged victim of the
tragedy, came home at daybreak in
a condition of intoxication, it is said.
He went to bed after drinking some
coffee, said to have been prepared by
his wife, and soon afterward died in
commissions.
The prosecution allege that strych-
nine was put in the coffee, while Mrs.
Stannard maintains that what she put
in the cup was powder to cure her
husband of the drink habit.
Much public sympathy is felt for
the woman because of her previous
high standing in the community and
the fact that she is the mother of four
little children.

What the sanitary department OF
the canal commission has accom-
plished in cleansing the canal zone Of
yellow fever and other disease is well
known. The progressive wonders thai
have been attained in housing, feed
ing and providing amusement and in
struction to the army of 10000 work
men is less well known. The pestifer-
Gus jungle and swamp have been
transformed into clean, smart-looking,
healthful towns and villages to be
seen throughout the canal zone, all
full of hustling activity and today the
pleasant rendezvous of an ever
increasing number of American and
other tourists. This tran sformation
has cost millions. but they have been
well spent and the uninterrupted and
successful digging of the canal ever
since has been rendered possible
thereby.
Throughout the whole length of the
canal clean, comfortable houses have
been built for the married employees
and their families. Eighteen big no.
tells were also erected for the bach
elors, besides numerous barracks,
messes and kitchen for the laborers.
In these buildings there are under the
commissions care not fewer than 65,-
900 persons.
The white canal and railroad en-
ployes are furnished with free house,
electric light, coal and water, and all
laborers and employees have commits
sary rights which enable them to pur-
chase in the government stores at
practically cost prices, clothes, food
and other necessaries which permits
them to live well and inexpensively
and save a considerable part of their
salaries.
The public schools of the zone are
very good The teachers are Ameri-
can and native. The gardens estab-
lished in many of them have been
such a success that the Panama gov
eminent is adopting the same method
in its provincial schools.

The point which seems to offer the
reatest difficulties throughout the

lany slides occurring from the loose
