in the war against Russia in 1878
and in the brief, almost ridiculous way
in which they disposed of Greece in
1897.
Russian homes still mourn the thou
sands who battered themselves to
pieces against the walls of Plevna, and
the Greeks know from bitter expert
ence that an expedition. against the
Turks is just the reverse of picnic.
Italy has recently evinced decided re-
spect for the fighters able to with
stand her in the African sands. All
Europe. in short, knows that as a mill
tary power Turkey is far from being
decadent, however 1t may be with her
in other points Of civilization.
It is this which has given pause to
Europe when thoughts of taking
vengeance for Christians massacred in
Asia Minor and European Turkey were
in the air. It was this which nullified
the efforts of Gladstone laundering in
English mass meetings against the
great assassin" Turkey has been
dubbed "the sick man Of Europe" but
in at least one of his members, the
army, he has shown great and endur-
ing vitality.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1912-10-26

much can be gathered from the expert
ences Of the past. There is and has
been too much likelihood of the bayo-
nets Of Russia and the other European
powers becoming mixed in friendly or
hostile fashion with those of other
great powers or with the weapons of
the states directly interested.
It must not be forgotten that the paw
Of the bear which walks like a man"
Is extended in the direction of Con-
stantinople and that Russian states
men would like nothing better than to
hear the Orthodox mass intoned in the
ancient church, now the mosque, of st.
Sophia. There is that old, possibly
mythical will Of Peter the Great,
which, according to legend or anthem
tic history, bids his descendants not to
sleep in peace until the Russian might
sits enthroned by the Dardanelles.
{ One thing about Balkan war may
be stated with surety. That is that
the Turk Is mighty good fighter and
yields only when he is overwhelmed.
This Is true individually and collec-
lively of the Ottoman warriors. They
proved their fighting qualities and
their generals displayed their abilities

potent Turkish government, torn by in
ternal troubles, that it might do as it
pleased about the action.
Lightning From tho "War Cloud"
That was four years ago. Last year
came the Italo-Turkish war over Trip
oil, dragged along until recently with
no important actions. The rest Of the
world had almost forgotten that men
were fighting and dying on the African
sands in a struggle that threatened to
be interminable. Peace negotiations
had hardly begun before the old war
cloud in the Balkans" this time a war
cloud with no silver lining, began to
send out the lightnings of real conflict.
Before the world knew it Montenegrin
and Turkish soldiers were exchanging
shots across the border.
This years Balkan trouble came to a
head in August, when Turkish troops
attacked and massacred the inhabitants
Of Bulgarian villages. There were the
usual reports Of men, women and chill
dren butchered by the Turkish soldiery,
Of burnings and lootings. The great
nations have heard so many of these
reports in recent decades and have let
them go unheeded! But little Monte
negro, animated either by desire to
avenge the slaughtered or by nation
al yearning for expansion, or by both,
occupied Turkish territory and fighting
ensued.
Behind Montenegro, that little coun-
try that is hardly more than speck
on the map, stands Russia, with en-
couragement that is called secret, but
