THE CRIME OF THE ARMY CONTRACTOR

IT T is stated that Turkish contractors, in collision with officials,
Ii furnished the government with worthless war material,
and that when gunners opened their reserve ammunition
boxes they found them filled with soap. 1t is entirely credible
that these statements are true. When Russia was at war with
Japan the Russian soldiers were pitilessly robbed. They got
rotten clothing, rotten food and worthless ammunition, and
even the Red Cross supplies were stolen and sold by high
officials. In our great civil war the rascal contractor imposed
swindles on our armies that cost thousands of lives. When
Simon Cameron was secretary of war the thieyish contractor
had full swing. Clothing, shoes, blankets, tents and knapsacks
were of worthless quality and make and the food supplies were
bad. Under Secretary Stanton the army contractor was more
closely watched. In the Franco -Prussian war the French army
was outrageously yictimized by contractors and French defeat
was partly accounted for by dishonesty of the army contractors.
There was evidence of this crime during our war with Spain in
the quality of food supplied to the troops. The great Napoleon
had a way of dealing with the dishonest contractor. He had
the criminal tried by a drumhead courtmartial and shot. And
Il crime of greed that imperis an army and a nations cause,
that means sickness and death for the soldier, richly deserves
the Napoleonic treatment.

AFTER THE BALKAN WAR, WHAT?

TT F the Balkan tragedy can be ended at Constantinople by
Ii the submission of the beaten and humbled Turk Europe
can breathe free for perhaps a few years. But no agree
ments that may now be made or forced to avert a general war
can be a permanent settlement of the Balkan question. If
Turkey is permitted to retain Constantnople and the Darda-
neHes her tenure will be no longer than Russia will allow, AT
the first opportunity Russia will be at the Golden Horn and
some years hence the city of the Caesars may be the Russian
capital, to revive the glories of the old Eastern empire of the
Romans and Greeks. Austria is a composite State, likely to
fly apart after the death of the aged emperor. The Balkan
allies are additionally enemies of each other, and the events
of the present war will tend to make them arrogant in their
mutual relations. Convention may define the boundaries of a
state, but cannot make its population homogeneous, and all
these states are inhabited by antagonistic races. Europe may
look forward to continued and even greater complications and
troubles in the near East, no matter what the outcome of the
present war may be.

JERSEY CLAYS AND ART POTTERY.

n DISTINCT American school of art pottery is something
II IL that this country lacks, according to William Percival
Jervis, who at his studio at Oyster Bay molds world
famed creations from the red clay of that section. Mr.. Jervis
points out that "we alone of all the nations are content to have
no ceramic art" There is room here for a government insttu-
ton to develop a typical American phase of what the Oyster
Bay potter calls "the oldest of the arts, the pastime of kings
and princes, the key to unlock the secrets Of the dead past, the
story of the ages" The grand ducal pottery of Carsruhe, Ger
many, is stateaided, and Germany is doing more for the potter
than any other nation by providing technical and artistic train
ing. New Jersey about fifteen years ago provided for a ceramic
course at Rutgers College, and it received an endowment of
$4,000. Instructors were brought from Europe, and the result
was some creditable artistic work in clay in the production of
art pottery. A larger enterprise by the State would be desir-

PRINCETON AND YALE TOMORROW.

I'D RINCETON and Yale will meet on the football field at
LIS Princeton tomorrow in their annual struggle for su-
premacy with the pigskin, and thousands of partisans
on either side, largely of the fair sex, will witness the contest
and give inspiration to the respective teams. A fairer spectacle
than a great university football match, with it's great assem-
bage of witnesses, could not be imagined. And could anything
be more wholesome? Ancient Greece borrowed much of her
heroic and indomitabIe spirit from her great national games,
IN which kings and pOtentates were proud to be acclaimed vic.
tors. The modern world has now revived the Olympic games,
and t is the love of athletic sports that characterizes American
youth and is encouraged in our institutions of learning that has
given America the prominence in these world contests.

A FEDERAL COURT IN NEWARK.

TA OUR-FIFTHS of the business of the United States courts
Ii in New Jersey comes from the northern part of the
State. The fact that Trenton happens to be the capital
is no reason for compelling lawyers, jurors and witnesses from
Newark, Jersey City and Paterson to travel down there for
federal court business. The United States takes no account of
the geographical divisions of the various States. New Jersey
as a judicial district is a unit to the national government. It's
chief city and centre of population are entitled to the habitat
of federal justice. The movement of the Essex county bar to
this end deserves unanimous popular support.
