In Montenegro. where the father-in-
law of King Victor Emmanuel Ill. Of
Italy reigned. there was little enthusi-
asm at the progress of the Italian
arms in Tripoli
In ten months all was changed. The
government in Constantinople. set up
by the committee of union and prog
ress of the Young Turk party. had
failed to carry out the reforms promis-
ed to the powers for Macedonia and
Albania. Soon there were the old
tales of atrocities that had made lurid
the days of Abdul Hamid.
It has been shown. however. that
atrocities in Macedonia usually follow
ed in the wake Of Bulgar filtbuster-
ing expedition into that vilayet. while
the Montenegrins were not entirely
guiltless in urging the Albanians to re-
volt Soon the tension between Sofia
and Cetinie and Constantinople be-
came strained. and there were armed
demonstrations in eastern Roumelia

SOUTH AFRICAN
DIAMOND YIELD

Some idea of the big profits accru-
ing to the owners of some of the South
African diamond mines may be gained
from the following excerpts of re-
port published in the South African
Mining Journal, of Johannesburg:
"A profit of $2,5S5,454 is disclosed
by the report of the Premier Diamond
Co. for the year ended October 81,
1911, in addition to $11,515, 1865 worth Of
diamonds on hand and unrealzed spec
ial accounts for S65,191. Practically
the whole of the balance (S1,45O973)
was realized in November and Decem-
Der at an advance in stock prices. Dur
ing the company's year $50 per cent
(S4S6,65O) was paid as dividends en-
the preferred shares and 200 per cent
($3S9,320) on the deferred shares. A
further dividend of 800 per cent later
declared payable on the deferred
shares made a total for the calendar
year of 500 per cent, against the previ.
Gus record of 400 per cent
"The earth washed during the year,
IS,325,O00 loads, was a million loads less
! than that handled in the preceding
year, owing to the scarcity of native
labor, but the value per load increased
enough to make the aggregate profit
nearly equal to that of the previous
year. The recovery per load was SO
l-S cents, against n 1-2 cents in 1909
I 10, but the weight recovered per load
fell from O23O to O.213 carat per load
The increased value per load was
therefore due to the increase in the
average value OF the diamonds.
The average number of loads haul
! ed per 24-hour day was 29,O55; tn,
cost mined and washed, 55 ga cents
and the average cost per carat won
$2.37 10. The yield of diamonds wal
1,774,206 carats, a decrease OF 81, go
carats from the previous year. Re
cruiting costs came to 5000 per heaC
, for 1860 natives forwarded by recruit
ing agents in 1911, against $S.47 pc
head for 1907 natives in 1910. Volun
tary natives numbered 1856. The ma
tives received 65 1,2 cents each pc
day and found themselves. The nun

A substitute for hard rubber. gutta

on the market in England under the
name of seagumite. It is prepared

new discovery are said to be that it
IS non-infammable, proof against heat,
cold, oil and weather its insulation
resistance increases with immersion in
water; it is unaffected by dilute sui
phuric acid, which makes it especially
valuable for use in storage battery

LEGISLATIVE BRIBERY.

Bribery IL regarded by the constitu-
ton Of Maryland az high crime, and
the penalties under the constitution
are, that the briber ~ forever dis
franchised and prevented from holding
public office.
In addition to this, the statute law
of the State imposes penalties Of fine
of from 500 I'd $4,000 Oh imprison-
ment In the penitentiary for from 2
to 10 years, or both in the discretion
OF the Court
"a case occurring in Annapolis last
week has brought this subject promi-
nently to the attention az Tho State. In
this case,a young man OF hitherto good
reputation, is charged with an attempt
tO bride a member of the House OF
Delegates, by an offer Of $4,000 for
his vote against the Local Option bill.
The charge was made in the open ses-
sion OF the House, and committee
Cd, who examined the case, and while
stating that the evidence was conflict
ing, reported that it was sufficiently
convincing to recommend TO the House
TO send the case to the Grand Jury
of Anne Arundel County. This was
done, and 1T IN said the States Attor-
ney will have the case ready to pre-
sent to the Grand Jury by April the
18th, next
The young man who ID charged with
this offence, is Mr.. John F. O'Malley
who has for the past 1O years been The
Chief Clerk in the Office OF the Land
Commissioner at Annapolis, and has
recently been appointed State Auditor
by the Board OF Public Works. He
has, I'D to this time, borne a good
reputation. The person who preferred
the charge against him Is Delegate
Smallwood of Prince Georges county,
q member of the present House.
The Courts Of Anne Arundel county
will now investigate and pass upon
the case. If the alleged charge in
proven, and the accused is made to
pay the penalties for his wrongdoing,
which for his own good and a. de-
terent to others, he ought to pay, the
thought that necessarily comes to US,
IL the iniquities of the corrupt legis-
lative lobby.
Here is, young man who is said to
have offered bride to Delegate
Smallwood Of the House. which If
proven is fragrant crime and ought
to be punished, but who bribed O'Mal-
ley? 1t is hardly conceivable that he
should have had personal interest
enough in the defeat of the Local Op-
ton Bill to induce him to commit
such crime, and expose himself to
such penalties. The probabilities are
that he was first bribed and then be-
came briber. The penalties Of our
law are not too severe, for there j.
no higher crime against the State than
the use of money in our legislative
halls.
Young men in the legislature, and
indeed, everywhere else cannot fight
too shy Of the briber. He il corrupt
and essentially a corrupter, wherever
you find him. Shun him as, you would
