Turkeys Record in War.

Turkey, which now has been grant
ed an amistice, entered the war in
November, 1914, when she severed
diplomatic relations with Great Brit
ain, France and Russia. She Is the
second of the Central Powers to ask
the Allies for an armistice, Bulgaria
having been given an armistice which
led to unconditional surrender barely
four weeks ago.
Military operations began against
Turkey ON November ;, and Great
Britain annexed the island of Cyprus.
Turkey entered the war a few days
after. the German warships Breslau
and Goeben had sought shelter in the
Dardanelles, which at once was
blocked by the Allied feet. In April,
1915, Allied troops were landed on
the Gallipoli Peninsula, but the cam
paign failed, and the Allied troops
later we're withdrawn.
The British began a campaign
along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers
in November, 1914. They advanced
to within less than 100 miles of Bag

URIF OF TURKS.
Palestine Will Know Their Greed and
Cruelty No More.

"The Turk is gone from the holy
places" says The News Republic,
ttStep by step the British advanced
out of Egypt through the land OF
Edom and the Philistine ~littoral,
pressing the Turk northward until
the whole tangled high land Of Judea
and the plain of Sharon we're cleared
Of the deflement Of his presence.
And now all Samaria and the plain
OF Erdraelon have been liberated by
the last great victory of Gen. Aaenby.
There remain doubtless demoralized
bands of Turks in the hills of Galilee,
but they will soon have been hunted
down. Ali the lands ON this side of
Jordan up to the boundaries of the
where for two generations
Turkey has held only nominal sway,
will have been redeemed. And be-
yond the Jordan the remnants of the
Turkish force are darting wildly
about in Gilead and Ammon, seeking
desperately an escape from between
the British in the Hauran and their
Arabic Allies moving north through
Moab. There is no way out for the
Turks except over the deadly Arab
ian desert to the east. Whether they
go out into the desert or remain to
be made prisoners is all one to the
world. They are thrust out of Pales-
tine, and that stricken land will
know their misrule and greed and
cruelty no more"

dad, but were defeated, retreated to
Kut-El-Uamara, where they were
later forced to surrender.
Early in 1917 the British renewed
the offensive in Mesopotamia and
have continued it successfully ever
since, until now they are within q
few miles of Mosul.
Turkey sent armies against the
British in Egypt and against the Rus
slams in the Caucasus. Both cam
paigns had a measure of success at
first, but the Allies soon drove the
Turks back beyond the Turkish from
tiers.
For several weeks after the United
States declared wal on Germany
Turkey took no action but on April
FL, 1917, she severed diplomatic re-
lations. However, there has never
been a declaration of war either by
the United States or Turkey.
Turkeys war activities, under the
leadership of Germanophile Turks,
like Enver. Pasha, has been marked
by the severity with which the Turks
have treated the subject nationali-
ties in their power.
The Turkish army has many Ger
man officers and the Turkish navy is
controlled by Germans. 1t was re-
ported several weeks ago that the
Germans in Turkey probably would
resist if the Turks opened the Darda-
nelles to the Allies. It is not un-
likely that one of the principal pro-
visions of the armistice will be that
Allied warships shall occupy the Oar
danelles and the Bosphorus and that
Allied troops shall take control in
Constantinople.
