wv HEN the new King of Albania
w reached his palace the other
day he found that the bed
uteads had not been put up. The rats
began to scamper about the room as
the King and Queen threaded their
way among the ramshackle furni.
ture Of their new home.
The Queen then went downstairs
and found the kitchen decorated In
black. a result of the kind of fire that
was used there and the grease that
had accumulated on the walls.
Everything about the house was
In a similar state of dirt and unpre-
paredness. Even If the place had
been in spick-and-span order It would
not have been very inviting.
These and other circumstances
connected with the new Kings rule
have led an American observer to
describe It as the toughest king Job
In the world"
Disagreeable as the Kings ex-
perience seems likely TO be, that of
the Queen, his wife, will be even
worse. A refined American house
wife would surely rebel at the
thought of living in q country where
there are no bathtubs and similar
convenienoes, and where the average
citizen eats at table with his battle
knife.
Albania is the country that was
the greatest bone of contention in
the recent war OF the Balkan States
against Turkey. Before that war II
formed part of the Turkish Empire
in Europe. II contains about 1,500,-
600 inhabitants. OF these the greater
number ara Mohammedans. They
live in the mountains and are very
nearly savages. Along the coast
there is a sprinkling of more civil
azed people, some OF them Catholics
and OF Italian origin.
At the end of the war Montenegro
occupied Albania and nearly split
Europe into two warning factions by
the action. All the Powers combined
and put Montenegro out. Then Il
was agreed to settle the question by
making Albania an Independent

In the end Prince William OF Wied

Prince who would accept the new
throne. In the eyes OF the Albanians
his chief recommendation was his

one OBSTACLE TO be overcome con-
sisted OF Essad Pasha, the leading
Mohammedan of Albania and
fighter OF the most savage character.
Essad Pasha could probably have
been selected king by his rifie-car-
rying friends in the mountains, but
the principal Powers would not per-
NIT his selection.
Essad Pasha was persuaded that II
would be better to elect an unobjec-
tonable gentleman as king, and to
exercise his own power as the kings
right-hand man. Essad headed the
deputation that formally invited
Prince William OF Wied to accept
the throne.
The King designed q special uni
form for himself to be worn in his
new kingdom. II is of the hussar
style, but unlike any other European
uniform in color. It is Of gray cloth
with green trimmings. The green Is
designed to piacate Turkish sym
pathies, and the neutral gray Is sup
posed to be acceptable to all ele-
ments.
The Kings formal entrance into
his dominions was made by embark
ing on yacht at the Austrian port
or Trieste, on the Adriatic, and then
proceeding to the Albanian port of
Durazzo, half days journey away.
An escort OF foreign warships accom-.
panied the yacht.
Durazzo was chosen as the capital
OF the new kingdom because It is on
the seacoast and has comparatively
civilized population. In case of dis
tress the King could make a quick
escape from here to Austrian terri
tory. Scutari is the largest town, but
1t is In close proximity to the noun
tains and their dangerous tnhab-
itants.
The house selected as the Kings
palace had belonged TO a well-to-do
merchant There was not sufficient
time to put II in repair or furnish It
suitably for king, and besides there
was no money for the purpose.

The King must depend on customs duties for
any revenues he hopes to obtain ia Albania. II
is impossible to collect the taxes from the Al
banians, who live In the mountains and have al
ways rtne ready for an unwelcome visitor.
The correspondents observed that Queen
Sophie, the wife Of the new King looked ex-
tremely pale as she made her entrance into her
new domfnions. She Is a delicate, graceful

The Prince is very rich, and his palace Of

make the change to the rough and barbarous

agreeable. Evidently the glamor OF a crown and
the romance OF the position have led him to face
all its dangers.
Prince William is the nephew Of Queen Eliza

OF Wied. II was Queen Elizabeth who suggested
to her nephew the possibility of becoming King
OF Albania, and coached him in the ways Of get

WHAT HOPE is THERE FOR THE AMERICANMAN
AND WOMAN WHO LABORS?

that the l. W. W. divides the society
of today into two broad classical
tons the employing class ON ONE
HAND and the working class ON
THE OTHER!
To put. our panacea into effect we
may resort to various things-the
strike, for instance. This involves
the withdrawing of the labor power
from the establishment in question,
or from the ENTIRE industry in
question.
Second, we might use sabotage"
this involves the slowing up of pro-
duction in factory by the workers,
the turning out of poor work-in
fact, the interference with the pro-
cess of production so as to destroy
any possible chance for revenue or
profit accruing to the owners from
that particular industry or mill.
If the DESTRUCTION OF PROP
ERTY would gain the point for the
workers involved, we would consider
it reasonable. The fact that PROP
ERTY would be DESTROYED would
not have ANYTHING to do with de-
termining whether we adopted GER
tain plan or not!
EXACTLY the SAME reasoning
applies to PERSONS human be-
ings!
The employers, as a class, are not
at all particular whether they injure
our property or not. THEY take US
into the mills before we are able
before we have even a semblance of
an education, and they grind up OUR
VITALITY, OUR BRAIN AND OUR
MUSCLE into THEIR PROFITS, and
whenever WE cannot keep pace with
the machine, speeded to the highest
notch, they turn US out onto the road
to exc out an existence as best we
can or wind up on the poor farm or
in Potter's field. And we think what
is good for the employing class is
