Death and other causes have depleted the tory ranks Heyburn of Idaho, and Nixon of Nevada, and Frye of Maine, Lorimer was expelled The old combination, headed by that greatest tory of them all, Nelson W. Aldrich, has vanished. When faft came {nto office in 1909 there was a republican party majority of tories, including, in addition to those mentioned above, such familiar names as these, now all absent: 3 Aldrich of Rhode Island, Bulkeley of Connecticut, Bur- kett of Nebraska, Burrows of Michigan, Carter of Montana, Depew of New York, Dick of Ohio, Dillingham of Vermont, Elkins of West Virginia, Flint of California, Hale of Maine, Kean of New Jersey, Piles of Washington and Scott of West Virginia. ‘ ‘ ‘These were all Taft's friends. They were assistants in passing the Aldrich tariff bill and defeating progressive measures. Now they have all walked the political plank The list of politically dead in the house of representa- tives since Taft came into office would fill a solid column. ’Twoald Be Shameful Tt would be a shame to all Christendom should the Ew an powers listen to the squealing of the Turk and interfere with the Balkan geographical reform—the driving of the unspeakable Turk from Europe It is a religious war. For years the Moslem has bru- tally and mercilessly persecuted, and even massacred, Chris- tian and Jew, and the powers have calmly looked on. the boot is on the other leg, and it is the fanatical Turk who is roaring for mercy and preservation of territory, which has been his field of outrage and slaughter. Cowardice and greed would alone explain interference by the powers at a time when the Moslem is getting pun- ishment which he has well earned by years of crime, All civilizatidén should cry “Hands off!” The right sort of medicine is being administered to the Turk. The Judicial Way The supreme court of New Hampshire gives Mary Baker Eddy’s personalty to the Christian Science church, under her will. The supreme court of Massachusetts bars the church from getting her realty, under her will. O! the holy, infallible judiciary!
