GREEKS CAPTURE sALoNIKA
Turkish Stronghold Falls After Hard
Eiahtina.

After several days Of fierce fighting
the Greek army commanded by Crown
Prince Constantine occupied the Turk
ish stronghold of Salonika last Friday
at noon. The approach Of the Greeks
after the city could hold out no longer
was marked by terrible massacre OF
the Christian population. The Greeks
imprisoned all of the Turkish officials
and 1t was stated that $1,000 Turkish
soldiers fell into their hands as pris-
oners Of war. There was great rejoic-
ing in Athens upon receipt of the news
and services were held in all the
churches.
The city Of salonika Is thus describ-
ed by writer in the last issue Of the
Christian Herald:
1T was a beautiful day in February
that We last entered the harbor OF
has been less changed with the lapse
Of the centuries than have most Of the
cities of Macedonia.
I'VE had just steamed by glorious
Mount Olympus, the most famous
mountain Of all antiquity, that rises
ten thousand feet sheer from the blue
waters of the Aegean.
There 1t stands today, majestic In
its isolation, cloud-capped and myste-
rious as ever. One cannot wonder that
it was peopled with divinities. demons
and spirits Of all kinds, good and bad,
by the simple folk of the elder time.
Even before passing the mighty
bulk Of Olympus, the city Of Salonica
appears imposing in the distance with
its glistening white houses and min
arets.
I'VE approached slowly and careful
ly, because the harbor had been mined
by the Turkish authorities to prevent
the entrance of Italian gunboats. A
little pilot steamer came from behind a
headland five miles from the city to
lead the way, and at the slowest pos
sible speed we approached the beauti-
full metropolis.
LAS we land at the busy quay we
find all the hustle and confusion Of a
great seaport. We were so fortunate
as to find a friend patiently waiting in
small boat with his much-be-d deck
ed and e-pistoled kavass, who re-
lieved us Of all trouble in landing and
at the custom house. We went with
our missionary friend through the
street that skirts the waterfront and
that leads to his industrial farm school
some five miles out Of the city. Through
the center Of the street runs a track Of
the electric car system of Salonica, and
the whizzing broom stick trains dart
back and forth at a rate which would
have frightened the leisurely camels
and donkeys and their riders of the an
cient days.
CLOSE up to the sea wall, which pre-
vents the waters of the bay from in
undating the city, lie the black hulks
of the modern steamers which call ev-
cry great harbor in the world their
home port. On the shore side Of this
fine street are large hotels, great busi-
ness warehouses and office buildings,
while further on it is lined on both
sides with beautiful residences of mod
ern Salonicans."

FUTURE OF THE PARTIES
Looks Very Much as If Republican Or
ganization May Disappear.

sanization May Disappear.
Commenting the general result OF
the recent election, Joseph Davies
western manager of the Wilson cam
paign, said.:
I'VE have built our Democratic fac
tory and installed our Democratic ma
chinery," he said. "Our platform con-
tains our advertising. There lies ahead
Of us the task Of turning out the pros
perity which our factory is built for
Today we have the Joy of victory. To-
morrow and in the future we shall have
the responsibility of carrying out our
campaign pledges in a way that will
not interrupt the general prosperity,
but will cause 1t to spread little far
ther down.
1T is clear to us that the Demo-
cratic party has now a new chief op-
ponent in Roosevelt's party. AS to the
Republican party: The king Is dead:
long live the king
II think / express Democratic opin-
ion when l say we will be content that
Roosevelts party shall continue to be
the party Of ultimate radicalism, If we
may be the party Of conservative pro-
gressiveness. Our concern shall be
that We do not drop back to the stand
patism that wrecked the Republican
party.
II am concerned to know what will
become of the Republican party
whether it will be absorbed by Roose-
welt or split up generally into parts
which will work into all the parties.
IF disappointed persons do not now
shape national affairs between this
date and the date Of Mr. Wilson's in
auguration as president so that the
party must devote most Of it's term to
correcting the harm, as has been the
case before, there will be little time
lost by the Democrats in justifying the
peoples judgment"
