in the seventh century arose in
the east the power which proved
fatal to many another nations be.

lifts it's crescent threateningly
against the cross-the power Of
Islam. The followers of the
Prophet Mohammed swept across
Europe from Mecca to Gibraltar
and finally the Ottoman Turk be.
came the dominant race over a
vast empire in Europe and Asia.
From that time to this the Ar.
menian has lived under his sway,
often peaceably enough, often
unpersecuted. but still separate.
distinct, unabsorbed, tubbornly
Christian. The Armenian had no
national state to rally round but
he had a church. In this cling.
ing to the church and thus cling.
ing to his nationality through
centuries lies the secret of the
Armenian's success. No out.
burst of persecution has sue
ceeded in shaking him from his
national faith. Through thick
and thin, fair weather and foul
the Armenian has stuck to his
church. II
In business life the Armenians
were successful. They were also

money making did no: help them
to popularity with the more indo.

Armenian on the whole had no

Then Abdul Hamid II came to
the throne, engaged 10 the Rus

Treaty of San Stefano, In which

About 1000 B G. history speaks
of a district Armenian people
dwelling en- the table lands near
Ararat, conquered in turn by
the Babylonians the Modes and
Persians, the Selencidae and the
Romans, with brief intervals of
independence. Even under con-
quest, as it was understood by
the ancient orientals, the Armen-
ians were little lnterfered with
as long as they paid the requir-
ed tribute.
In $40 A. D. the interested
figure of Gregory the Illumina.
tor comes brightly into the FORE
ground of Armenia's mideval
history, to influence permanently
the future character and fate of
her people. Gregory was bap-
tized when a child, married early
and had two sons. When he was
caught by the wave of monastic
ism that swept through Europe
iu the Middle Ages, felt that he
had vocation and 5ade farewell
to his wife and the world, for
sock the common ways of men
and entered a monastery. His
later prosecutions, years of prison
visions and miracles obtained for
him the reputation OF saint. He
converted Tiradates the King of
Armenia and baptized 1000 Ar.
menians. Eight years later
Chritianity became the state re-
ligion of Armenia, and to this
day the mummied hand of old
St. Gregory is laid upon the head

Rockcastle County
Asked To Give 1898
For Their Relief

Rockcastle County is asked to
give S396 of the $50, ZOO. 900 TO be
raised for the relief of the Armen-
ians. Rockcastle citizen does the
app al for suffering humanity
touch your tender cord?
Read the brief sketch Of the
Armenian people which follows
and then satisfy YOUR own con-
science what you should do.
Many think of the Armeni-
ans as set of people always un-
dergoing massacre. AS fresh
news about them appears from
time to time, we ask ourselves
wonderlngly.-" Can there still
be Armenians left ?" The tenacity
and vigor of this by no means
numerous race is shown in noth-
ing better than in this, that even
now, after the last unprecedented
outbreak of massacre and depor-
tation, there are still nearly four
million survivors scattered in
Asia Minor. Persia, Syria and
the Russian Caucasus. At least
400, 900 children who have no
fathers and many of them nc
mothers are among these refu-
gees. In them is the hope of q
new Armenia, some day perhaps
to surpass in prosperity and
world usefulness the Armenia OF
ages long ago.
The history of Armenia is al
most as old as history ITSELF. Ar

It is now time to commence
gardening in earnest. and we fear
that past experience will cause
the people to neglect their pota-
to crop. The importance Of this
county producing sufficient pota.
toes for home consumption cam
not be too forcibly impressed on
the farmer. The high prices now
prevailing are sufficient evidence
that any potatoes that might be
raised over and above home con.
sumption would find a market, so
we hope that everybody will con.
slider the Importance of this. crop
and procure the very best seed
and plant with q view of having
some potatoes TO spare. The
poor crop last year makes il more
important that seed be bought on
the market and home production
not risked for :seed. Some of
our merchants have been buying
in large quantities seed potatoes
that have been tested, and an. IN,

comfortable, so Gladstone forced
the substitution of the Treaty of
Berlin IN 1873 for that OF San
Stefano, by which the response.
bility for the Armenians was di.
vided. This was bad luck for the
Armenians, since their sponsors,
the concert of Europe, found II
impossible to act together. By
various efforts at interference
they reused Abdul Hamid's tenn.
per and defiance, and that irri.
tated monarch, hxe a bad tenn.
pered child with too much power,
decided to kill of the Harmless S
subjects in whom other European
powers had so incouvenient an
interest. An outbreak of CHASTITY
massacre was the result, the first
OF a series which we saw culmi
mated in 19Is. $
Now that the theory of the
Balance OF Power is bankrupt, we
hope for better protection Of the
armenian and other small races
under the organization Of League
of Nations.
Geographically, Armenia has
many advantages for future de-
velopment. In ancient days it
consisted of soo,ooo square miles
of fertile table-laud, stretching
from the Black Sea and the eau.
casus Mountains to Persia and
SYRIA. This land rises from the
sea until it reaches a level of
about 5000 feet, shooting up In
Mount Ararat to a snow.capped
peak about 1000 feet higher than
Mont Blanc. The land is fertile,
rugged, picturesque, and rich IN
rivers, Of which the Euphrates.
Tigris, Pison and Araxes are
the chief. These empty their
waters into the Caspian and
Black Sea and the Gulf Of Persia.
1t is good grazing land and fine
for agriculture, producing melons,
grapes, wheat. maize, barley.
oats, cotton. rice, tobace6 and
sugar; while rich deposits Of coal,
silver. lion and other minerals lie
undeveloped beneath the surface
when the season Is at its height,
such is the productive power of
the soil that two melons are said
to be a cancels load.
This is the home from which
the Armenians have been driven,
and to which they must be re-
stored. :;
To keep them alive in the mean
time, and to transport them home
and help them start life afresh
will cost a large amount of mon.
ey. America does not expect to
pay 1t all, but she does. expect
to raise. by voluntary subscrip.
ton, the sum of $780, 900. 600 to.
wards that great end - allowing
on even distribution, the sum of
81. so per person-uot q great
deal for US togive or them to re.
ceive, but it will make all the diff.
ference between life and death to
these sorely stricken people In
the imedimate future.
