Does It Mean Anything?
THE TERRIBLE TURK is such

THE TERRIBLE TURK is such polished
i gentleman when he feels inclined that he
is able. time and time again. to remove the susp-
cions of his neighbors. Gen Sir Charles Town
shend, of the outstanding British heroes of the
world war, was badly beaten in Mesopotamia by
Turkish troops commanded by gentleman named
Nour-ed-Din Pasha He remained prisoner of
in Constantinople for months after his
defeat and finally released to negotiate ,erms
for an armistice.
Now Gen. Townshend is back in Stamboul in
violation say officials of the British foreign office
of his passport He is being entertained lav:shly
by this same Nou--cd-Din pasha. his former
Queror. 1t is pleasant picture-this gruf. fight
ing Ango-Saxon partaking oil the luxurious oriental
hospitality of the polished, gentlemaniy twentieth
century Saladin who SO lately his uncompro-
missing foe on the desert battleeld,. Ncur-ed- Din
Pash&. We presume. intends that it snail be pleas
ant picture for the English people, with whom
Townshend is popular idol 1t is always inter
esting when old foes sit down and break bread
together
But will be far more convinced of the polish
and courtesy Of the Turk when Nour Din Pasha,
some of his countrymen of equally high estate.
entertains Armenian general in an elegant villa
at Stambou and the Armenian accepts the hosp-
tality without keeping his finger the trigger Of
his revolver
Then we should be confident that the millennium
was near. But there is immediate expectation
of such picture
During the Washington conference, General the
Earl of Cavan and Gen. Moltke, both Of whom
had commanded divisions against each other early
in the war, ate dinner together and talked
times at fashionable District dining place. When
the meal was they shook hands like old friends
and true sportsmen That pleasant picture,
almost a symbolic picture. in consideration of the
effort to reduce ornaments then in progress in the
Capital OF the United States.
But We will be far more convinced that the
millennium is near when Marshal Ferdinand Foch
and Gen. Hindenburg sit down at dinner
together and talk old times. Such picture
seems, just at present. impossiblity.

action has he taken in the face of

ment. He denies having obtained
any evidence to justify the con-
clusion that a conspiracy to re-
strain interstate commerce exists.
but admits that charges have been
lodged with the department to that
enect. Just another case of side
stepping. Where is the necessity OF

conspiracies, and would be under
indictment and prosecution by now.
He hopes the strikes may be set
tied without his Intervention. be-
cause these people have votes. and
an election is coming of in Novem-

For the present We feel that the
foregoing are sufficient to sustain
the charges. Maybe we will submit

ture time. We at least reserve the
right so to do.

FIRST ASSISTANT POSTMASTER GEN.
u ERAL BARTLETT denies that postoffice
clerks are forced to work overtime in order to
money for the Department. The Federation Of
Postoifice Clerks, on the other hand asserts this
is exactly what happens-although 1t is in direct
violation Of statutes applying to the service. That
such controversy has arisen is unfortunate: but It
can not be settled by mutual recrminatons.
1ostofice clerks deserve the benefit of every
law on the books to promote their welfare. 1t will
not tend to decrease unrest among this body of
faithful workers to tell them that high postal Off
cials are too honest to violate laws while. at the
same time, the overtime practice continues
The best answer the Postoffio Department can
make to the charges of the workers federation is
to cut down the amount of overtime demanded.
Then the men will have concrete evidence that
their best interests considered above the posi-
bities for penny-savns on the part of the govern
ment.
Assurances that their employers are honest con-
stitute cold comfort for workers if the abuses
tinue. 1t is like assuring gentleman about to be
hanged for crime of which he is innocent that
the law of the land is just. and that jury could
make mistakes.
If there is federation of workers in the
United States least likely to degenerate into any
thing unduly radical it is that of postofice clerks,
who are among the hardest worked and least re-
warded of all government employees.
Mr.. Bartlett. without doubt. we'll by the
postal service workers. But the complaints of the
Federation officials deserve more consideration than
would those of l. w. WIS or international COM
munists. They deserve consideration as coming
from loyal American citizens who desire call to
the governments attention an unjust condition
which easily be remeded
Mr.. Bartlett says there is no unnecessary over
time. But if clerks forced to remain night after
night. it seems that something should be done to
remedy the necessity.

Peace Looms in Ireland.

I RlSH IRREGULARS are making valiant
i but hopeless stand. The remarkable feature
of the civil war now being waged in southern Ire
land is the determination shown by the rebels in
the face of absolutely certain defeat The Free
State troops press forward in orderly fashion.
They are victorious in every engagement. Most of
the irregular troops reduced to mere handful
of ragged men, But they fight on, falling back
from defense to defense, like fanatics.
When the Free State at last accomplishes its
purpose it should recognize that it has dealt with
valiant foes. general and complete amnesty will
be essential in order to .restore good feeling
among the embittered factions There seems little
doubt the government will not follow this policy.
Its leaders best appreciate the feelings and
motives of the rebels since they themselves so
lately in the classification.
The complete victory of the Free State forces
is a matter OF few weeks at best-and will prove
concusivey the ability of the present government
to keep its house in order. After all, it has fought
considerable war. 1t has been estimated that the
battles with the Republicans have cost the pres
ent Irish government much as the Boer war
cost Great Britain-and that was one of the
most notable of recent times.
