These events are today's chap
ter of,the continued story, which
is keeping the country at the high
est pitch Of excitement and. sus-
pense. The present situation: is
remarkable, as the government
nominally will be without a prime
minister, and without a leader in

Bye election is held in East Fife.
The writ for the election, which
must give 8 days notice, will pro-
badly be issued tomorrow.

THE TINE FOR THE CRESCENT.

(From the Louisville Courier JournaD
If Japan enters the fight as an ally of

NJ oha mmedans OF North Africa, the Near
East and the Middle East as friends?
The Emperor of Germany has twice Wis
tied onstantinople in the interest of i'm
proved relations between Turkey and Ger
many. He adopted a friendly attitude to-
ward the Sultan OF Morocco IN his trou-
bles with the French when, less than 10
years ago, he visited Tangier. The way
has been paved, thoroughly, for a Ger
man Moslem alliance affecting the Mo-
hammedans occupying large part of
Great Britain's Asiatic possessions, as
well as the Turks, who are an independ-
ent people; the Egyptians, who are chat
ing under English authority: the inhabi-
tants of recently-anneNed Tripol, who
resent the rule of Italy and the Moroc-
cans, who are FESTIVE under French DON'T

The unltication Of the Mohanmedans OF
Europe, Africa and Asia WAS said 10 have
been the dream Of Abdul Hamid when he

AMERICA, SAFEST LAND FOR CAP
ITAI.

From the Philadelphia LEDGER
! War has added a double value to the
thought that America should be place
to invite foreign capital instead of to
antagonize it. Europe. harred and
bleeding from thousand veins, has now
become an unsound place for invest
ments.
| II our interstate commerce commits
sion, our Legislatures. the Congress and
various arbitration boards continue to
render the United States an unsafe place
for Investment, not by war but by legal
strangulation, then this continent fnan-
cally will be but little better off than
war-scourged Europe
The strife in tax-rdden monarchios
gives all political parties in the United
States and all citizens an ideal oppor-
tunity to do something of the most last
ing benefit for their country Without
further ado 1t should be made known to
the world that the United States is going
TO be safe and not hazardous country
in which to invest money.
How can this be done? The interstate
commerce commission should begin by
Immediately reversing Its own foolish
enterprise and business should be en-
couraged. so that they could be certain
in the future of having all the capital
they require
But European Investors will leave their
ronry nortsagcd mt home by this uni
versal war, and they will have every
inducement to buy their own government
bonds. THIS indhceraert will amount al
most 10 coercion, so that the United
states need look for precious little cap
ital from :hht quarter for n long time.
Our own people Will have 20 finance
their own business. That being an un-
disputed fact the ludlcrous assaults up
on business ought to stop to-day Every
ounce OF statesmanship in Washington
should so far as concerns laws relating
to business. be constructive instead OF
destructive.
Laws should hereafter tend to insure
capital of n decent living, Just as arbi-
tration boards and laws now ineure la
Dor decent living. While the great
war is helping to make America the
safest place to invest the savings of the
world our own lawmakers and admin
istrative bodies should do nothing to
counteract that benefcent result
