now, that its befoulers and despollers
are to be told to go from this Eden
to more undesirable regions OF Asia.

4A4N N~S
Constantinople was at one time ~
the history of the world, the moE I'm
rortant commercial city then existing,
and will, when put into better hands
again take it's rightful place, in the
world: The mighty Russian Empire
is entitled to a free, unfrozen outlet
through these straits and seas to the
oceans of the world. She is 0
about to come into her own, and she
will get no more than was designed
by the Creator of the Universe, for
her two millions of Gods creatures.
We are living in great times, n
great things are taking place n
though millions of lives must be snuf-
ed out. yet miilltarism is bound to be
put down, and can only be done by the
mighty sword, seeing that crazy rul-
ers, lured by ambition, will rush to
ruin.
This war can never be settled, now
till it is settled right, and that is an
everlasting burial of naughty MILL
tarism.

Wonderful Making of History.
Editor, Democrat:
With the most powerful warship
armed with the mightiest guns ever
known on this earth, the great Queen
Elizabeth dreadnaught, and many
other English and French naval YES
sells are now hammering their way
through the Dardanelles straight on
their way to Constantinople.
This D~ardanelIe straight is nothing
else than the ancient H~ellespont so
we'll known to the ancient Greeks and
Romans. Caesar crossed the Helles-
pont, SO did Xerxes and so did Alexan-
der the Great with their armies on
pontOOn bridges. This straight
where these warships are now batter
ing down the forts, runs from the
Aegean sea to the sea of Marmora, and
is Al miles in length. and from three
to four miles wide. The sea of Nor
mora is separated from the Black Sea
by the straight Of Bosphorus which is
about LIS miles long and from one to
two miles wide, with places as narrow
as 500 yards. From the ocean to- the
Mediterranean, from the Mediterran-
can to the Aegean, from the Aegean
to the sea of Marmora and from Mar
mora to the Black Sea and all the Rus
sias.
Take up early Greek and Roman
history and this present country
around Constantinople is called By
Zantium, and was SO called till the
Roman Constantine founded the Wes-
tern Empire and this city after his
name. 1t was called the New Rome
and was the official home of the Eas-
tern Orthodox church, while Rome
was the Western.
It may be some Of the Democrat
readers do not know that CONSTANT
nople is one of the most wonderful
cities on earth. 1t has been called
the city of two continents. though lEe
main part of it is in Europe. 1t has
been said to stand upon two promo
tories, rather than on two continents
having q wonderful harbor called the
Golden Horn, capable of floating 1906
ships. When the great b~attleshipf
hammer down all the towers and forts
along the Al miles of the DardennellE
straight, they are still quite a distance
from Constantinople, but is only across
the small sea of Marmora till the Col.
den Horn and the mouth of the Bos-
phorus is reached and the wonderful.

LAND SUIT SETTLED.
E S. Cram Wins About I,IO0 Acres
After Is Years Litigation.

An opinion has recently been handed
down in land suit that has been in
the courts since 1890. The decision
gives to +. s. Cram, as the agent Of
over fifty heirs to the estate of Robert
Cram. about 1,l0O acres of timbered
land lying in the southwestern part of
this county that is said to be the best
virgin timber tract in the county. E.
S. Cram came into possession of an old
book that had belonged to Robert Cram
in which he found copy of letter
that had been written to the tax col
lectoI of Bledsoe county in 1841. E.
s. Cram wrote the Bledsoe county
authorities and learned of the land.
which was in this county by the forma-.
tlon OF this county. Mr.. Cram en-
ployed Smith 4 Mitchell to handle the
case with the result that they recovered
tor him the acreage stated. 1he case
had been in the courts almost rs years.
Mr.. Cram moved here from New
Hampshire in 1909 and has been an
active and energetic citizen in all
movements looking to the betterment
of the county since his arrival.
He has become thoroughly imbued
with the idea that this country. with
its cheap lands and boundless free
range along with the splendid crops
that ere being grown here, is destined
to become the garden spot of Tennes-
see IN the comparatively near future.
He hopes to interest several of his old
IN New Hampshire in
to this section TO open up
farms. He intenIs to give them splen-
did opportunities In that they will be
allowed to select choice tracts and have
a long term of ears in which to pay
for same.
The section Of the county where the
Cram lands lay is one Of the very best
for farming as the land is far above
The average in natural fertility and
with the abundant free range it pre-
'ents most admirable opportunity for
young men to acquire good farm on
easy terms and in few years find
themselves in poss, ssion of farms that
will be worth many times what they
.ost. Our people will wish for Mr..
Cram unbounded success in his efforts
o locate energetic farmers on his prop
,rty as such a course would be Of great
'alue to the county while presenting
plendid advantages tor the new set
lers.
