euualitarian as the Magyars are oil
garchic. 1t will not be the mere
satisfaction of the ambition Of Serbia;
it will be the liberation of the South
Slav race. 1t may take the form of
a federation. 1t must provide for
the complete equality of the Roman
Catholic and Orthodox religions, and
for the full rights Of the Mohammed-
ans. or there will be trouble. The
Serbians have not behaved we'll to
Albanians and Bulgarians but they
will probably regard their brother
Slavs differently. And their brother
Slavs being so much more numerous
than themselves are not likely to
submit to ill-treatment. So | have
good hopes for the greater Serbia II
our side wins the war. When Serbia
has thus advanced to the northwest
into the lands to which she has a
complete natural right, she could
then be asked to compensate Bulga-
ria in Macedonia, and so settle the
vexed Balkan question. The evil
heritage of the second Balkan war,
that triumph of Austrian diplomacy,
will be abolished.
Lastly, there are the Italian dis
tricts of Austria. The Alpine region
around Trent, where Garibaldi fought
his campaign of 1866, should have
gone to Italy then, and is hers by
every natural right. Trieste also is
mainly Italian, and should go to
Italy. But it is greatly to be hoped
that she does not put up tariff bar
riers against the Slav Hinteriand of
Trieste. Trieste, like Salonica, must
be a free port to greater or less ex-
tent, or else both the city itself
will be ruined and the vast regions
to which it now acts as port will al
so suffer grave economic inconven-
ience. 1t is not beyond the wit of
man to come to such arrangement,
after the break up of the Austrian
empire. That event has not yet TAX
en- place but it may perhaps be close
at hand.
