The territorial demands OF the Balkan allies and
Greece upon Turkey tantamount in a restricted
sense. partition Of Turkey in Europe All civilized
persons who believe in political and religious freedom
should glory in the fact and wish God-speed to the
day when Turkish authority in Europe will be de-
stroyed utterly. The present war has permitted OF
great stride in that direction.

PARCELS. POST AND PATIENCE.

VAT THIN week the American public will be in the
" full enjoyment Of the parcels post The handling
OF small parcels will have been shifted largely from
the express companies to the Government. II is
pity that the law establishing the system did not go
into effect week before instead OF week after Christ
mas. Had it done the American public would have
been millions Of dollars richer and the express COM
panes millions Of dollars poorer Those companies have
had their last rapacous dip into the public pocket
for the transportation Of small packages The people
are delighted to such extent by their impending
emancipation that they have suffered the holiday OK
tortion with scarcely murmur. They know that by
ayaiing themselves OF the parcels post in holidays to
come. they viii obtain full measure Of revenge
against greedy corporations that have preyed for
upon the American people and have given
often poor service and courtesy in exchange for
high charges.
We have a few words Of wholesome advice to give to
the Delaware public at this time Il is to exercise
patience toward the postal officials during the first few
weeks after the parcels post system goes into effect
1t will be something new to all the in the
UnQuestionably the system will be faulty at the
outset There viii delay and breakage and other
things to try the public patience but every man and
woman the State should stand by the Federal Gov
eminent realizing that, in it's work OF emancipating
the people from the eXactons Of the express compan
les the government subiecting the entire postal ser
vice to strain and readjusment confusion that time and
experience alone can cure. Those interested in the
express companies would like TO the parcels post
machinery Of the Government break down They
would like TO hear denounced by the public No such
satisfaction should be given to them No matter what
may happen in the first few weeks stand by the Gov
eminent and the postmasters and carriers. Remem-
her that the American Government Is fully capable
OF performing what it has set out to do and thar
while there may be the outset they will be
cured experience is gained and equipment built up.
The express companies, in the hope Of holding much
or the business it otherwise would lose through the
operations OF the parcels post already have announced
impending reductions that almost cut their old
rates in behalf That is another great benefit the peo
pie viii receive through the wise action Of the Taft adj
rninistration putting the parcels post into effect
With a cheap parcels post and cheap express SER
vice the public will enjoy double benefit, all due 10
determination Of President Taft relieve the pub
lie from the voracity OF the express companies.

The socaed Spanish game is such old and

and cupdity Of prospective victim by entreatng him

have the prospective victim draw his money out

trust newspapers have locked out
their union men7 4
Because if the Inter- Ocean did
not suspend publication with its
fellow newspapers of the trust,
the publishers of the Inter Ocean
would be liable to a fine of SIS, 600.
This would be the greatest OPP
portunity in the world for the IN
ter-Ocean if it did not belong to
the trust. It could go out on the.
streets, and it could increase its
circulation ten-fold by supplying
news to a newsless city, and it
could get great advertising con-
tracts, if it were not bound by the
iFonclad agreement of the trust. !
And this trust is not merely
Chicago affair,
Back of the Daily Newspaper
association of Chicago is the
American Newspaper association
And the American Newspaper
association is affiliated with the
Associated Press in an effort to
organize the. newspapers of the
country into one vast trust and
to force the open shop m all
newspaper Offices, just as the steel
trust, the tobacco trust, the beef
trust, and every other big trust
has done in those industries.
As fast as any industry has
been organized into a trust, the
unions have been thrown out and

tabhshed.

them. \
Thus Hearst secured for, the
newspaper he started the support
of the 100000 union men and
women of Chicago. ~
But only a few years passed be-
fore Hearst, having climbed to a
Commanding position over the
bowed back of the trades union
lists, felt that he was strong
enough to turn around and kick
trades unionisp in the face.
Then Hearst joined the Pub
fishers Trust of Chicago, the
ayowed enemy of trades union
ism the most binding clause in
whose agreement is that directed
against trades iinionisrp.
A word about this publishers
trust,
Here in Chicago it is known as
the Daily Newspaper Associa-
ton of Chicago. And it is, highly
organized.
The bylaws of the association
cover almost every eyentuality
possible in the publication of a
newspaper. They even regulate
advertising rates, and they deal
specifically. as The Day Book
showed yesterday, with the at
titude of the publishers toward
trades unionisna.
Why do you think the Inter
Ocean is not on the news stands
this morning?
The Inter-Ocean has been a
scab newspaper for years. There
has not been a union pressman
