Grittsnia"
Balkan States Unite.
When this war broke out the Bal
Kan 81, t5s, which for centuries had
quarrellsd with each other, for once
gave promise of acting in concert
The Young Turk movement, instead OF
lettering the conditions. seemed to
| bear down more. heavily on the op-
pressed states of the danger zone.
/ Turkey was facing an Albanian re-
volt and was already at war with
Italy, superior power. Obviously the
time had come for which the Balkans
had been waiting.
Yet we must not think that the
Young Turkey had intendion brought
on this war. Since 1908, when the
constitution was restored" the
Young Turks have not had a fair
chance to show what they could do.
Passiyely and with admirable self-con-
troll, they watched Austria gobble up
Bosnia and Herzegovina. When Bull
garia declared herself independent the
Turks overlooked it, not from fear but
from self-restraint and the desire to
reform Turkish affairs at whatever
cost. Their main desire was a mod
ernized Turkey, and they made several
admirable steps in that direction. But
Turkey has not had a moment when
she was not in fear of external war or
internal revolt. With her varied and
Heterogeneous population it is no won
der that she failed to introduce re-
forms in Europe when she knew that
the result would very likely be civil
war nearer the capital
Not Holy War.
The, Balkan war has not been so far
a holy war. Why? Because it is a
case of Ottoman versus Slav and not
Of Moslem versus Christian The Bal
kan armies contain many Moslems
who are fighting against Turkey. The
Turkish troops contain many Christ
ians; but over and above this is the
fact that the present war is not a war
of religion. Turkey is fighting for her
life as a power; the Balkan states are
fighting for nationality, for govern
ment by and for the governed.
Present indications are that Turkey,
whose army has always been respect
ed as dangerous, has been swept off
her feet before she could prepare her.
self Perhaps, with her back to the
wall, she will execute an advance
which will astonish the world, but
present advices show her as mighty
nation humbled by Bulgarian up
starts ~.
War Is Farce.
And yet after all the Balkan war is
n hug farce. Thousands of men
fighting and dying-for what? No one
can tell. 1t is safe to say. however.
that the real feast will be celebrated
in the European capitals.
The war had to come. If Turkey
wins she will be humbled by the pow
ers; if she loses. her hold in Europe
is lost. We may safely say that no
major power, will eyer hold CONSTANT
nople without q general war. The |
Balkans have put up a magnificent |
fight and they will probably be able to |
dictate their own terms at Constanti-
nople. But will it be only a second |
treaty of San Stefano, later revised by
the powers for their own benefit?

household needed money, and that
she was wholly responsible for his

of motion in the lower branch of
the assembly to pass upon a resolu-

the organization, however. were said
to be ready to vote for impeachment.

ed evidence, and warranted postpone
ment of further consideration of the
Impeachment resolution. The reso-
luton was defeated 70 to 49.

S. S. S will do this positively. It

CHAPTER XII


Answers to the kilograms Chester
Kent had despatched arrived in the
form of night letters, bringing infor
nation regarding the Blairs of Hedge
row House; not sufficient information
to satisfy the seeker, however. There
fore, having digested their contents
at breakfast the scientist cast about
him to supply the deficiency. The
feet of hope led him to the shop of
Elder Ira bennett.
Besides being an able plumber and
tinker, Elder bennett performed, by
vocation, the pleasurable duties of I'M
printed journalism. That is to say,
he was the semi-official town gossip.
A Professor Kent was a conspicuous
figure in the choicest titbit the Elder
had acquired in stock for many years,
and as the Elder had been unable to
come to speech with him since the
inquest (Kent had achieved some skill
full dodging), there was joy in the
plumber-tinker' heart over the visit.
Unhappily, 1t appeared that Kent was
there strictly on business. He did not
wish to talk of the mystery of Lone
some Cove. He wished his acetylene
lamp fixed. At once. IL Elder bennett
pleased.
Glum was the face of the Elder as
! re examined the lamp, which needed
very little attention. 1t lightened
when his visitor observed:
I've been thinking little of getting
an electric car, to run about here in
