If she accedes, Italy's temper will be

TRIPOLI LIES
Foil FROM IRE
REATER IRAGK
(BY GEORGE DUFRESNE.)
Paris^ Oct. 14.—The Morocco crisis
is over, as far as all danger if a war
with Germany is concerned, bui, the
affair is going to have an after effect
in the chamber of deputies in a little
over two weeks, for the chosen repre
sentatives of the people are veiy in
dignant at having been left entirely
out of the play at a time when na
tional honor was at stake. The whole
thing in a nutshell is this:
France is a republic based on the
sovereignty of tiie people. That sover
eignty is asserted through the na
tion’s representatives. In 1871 parlia
ment was convoked to deliberate on
he Bismarckian demands and vote
accordingly. The constitution deflnse
the rights of the cnambers in nio
ments of grave peril to national in
terests. It is admitted by all that
Fiance has never passed through
such a crisis as the recent one, since
the war w'ith Germany.
For all that the French govern
ment never called parliament togeth
er. Deputies were kept as much in
the dark as to what w'as going on as
ordinary mortals. But in two weeks
time they will . make their voices
heard and they will show the result
of "education” in the recess.
The old peace-at-any-price majority
judging from all the signs* no longer
exists. Radicals and Radical-Social
ists are so dow-nright in patriotism as
conservatives and nationalists. The
proposed cession of the Mid-Congo
has particularly aroused hostility.
The constituencies object to the
transaction absolutely and deputies
hold their constituencies in respet.
Hence the report that the chambej’s
w’ould refuse to ratify the accord if
it included the alienation of the Mid-
Congo.
High Prices «f F«ed.
The agitation consequent on the In
creased prices of food still continues.
The goyerntnent- imagines it. has a
remedy in the establishment of co
operative bakeries and butchers’
shops. In other words, the desire is
to do away with 4:he middlemen. Na
turally those who sell things are in
dignant at the idea of the Govern
ment interfering with the intermedi
aries.
M. Mlllon, ttie president of the Pa
risian '\A.limentatron committee, falls
foul of the' suggestion made by M.
Paul Boncour, the former minister of
labor, that the intermediaries, among
horn must be included the small
traders, should be surpressed. He
points out that if the small shop
keepers were done away with not
only would great so.cial injustice
be committed but an Irreparable
financial error would result.
He suggests that instead of inter
fering with the business life of the
country the government should seek
to reorganize the transport services,
so that the centres of production
should be brought into more rapid
communicdtion with the centres of
consumption. Another suggestion is
that the regulations Imposed on the
import of refrigerated meat should be
suppressed.
The opinion is strongly held that
the creation of municipal bakeries
and butchere’ shops will not solve the
dear food problem. Demonstrations
are taking place in various parts ot
the country. Provisions are attacked
and destroyed when they arrive at
the markets, and the police are mail
ing arrests. / At some meetings the
temporary suppression of the octiioi
duties on provisions which are an
absolute necessity is advocated. The
peasants whose incomes are small
and precarious are in an ugly frame
of i^.lnd. The housewivee, armed with
bludgeons, are chasing those dealer*
from the markets who demand 30
cents for a pound of butter.

Probably no man in all the world
is more to be pitied than the Russian
statesman to who the czar gives
the task of taking up the work begun
by the assissinated M. Stolypin. To
ail appearances the murdered prime
minister succeeded in crushing the
revolution, but Russia Is still as far
as ever Irom sliding quietly, into the
path oi a normal European conserva
tism. The passions of the revolution
and the reaction the habits' of a se
cret police which has become a
censed regiment of criminals, the
long tradition of violence and ruth-
lebsness iji which aw hole nation has
been trained, have still their influ
ence to deflect thfe course of Russian
historv. HOW' it will end no man can
predict but it will not resemble the
quiet and orderly evolution of the
Prussian state, which the late Ai.
Stolypin took for his mod^l.
The apologists of M. Stolyn de
fended his policy on the assumption
that it aimed at establishing, not in
deed a liberal state, but a reign ot
order and law under constitutional
^arantees, on the model of bureau
cratic Prussia. A policy of that type
would have been capable of a P‘a”S-

Rome, Oct. 14.—Tripoli of Barbary
which is the bone of contention be
tween Italy and Turkey, lies far south
of the great Mediterranean highkay.
It possesses little natural wealth, and
this no boubt accounts for its having
escaped the European influences so
noticeable in Cairo, Tunis and Alg.
The capital is crescent in form, being
about two miles from tip to tip and
one mile wide. The inside of the cres
cent is bounded by a magnificent bay,
and the outside enclosed by huge ram
parts, except to the south east, whence
lead the principal routes to the Sahara.
Here, if anywhere is a city of romance.
Pirates and corsairs, doomed by obsol
ete Turkish gunboat s and modern
progress to idleness from their nefari
ous exploits, still throng the marina
cafes. In blue zouaves and loose bag
gy trousers, faced w'ith brilliant
touches of gold and red embroidery,
they remain at heart untamed.
A maze of narrow winding streets
lead from Custom House and ham-
parts to the business quarters. High,
white washed buildings, quaintly cor
belled prejections, and perforated case
ments, whence the harem ladles see
themselves unseen, combine in riotous
fantasy of street architecture. Here
and there the street burrows through
a house or underneath a series of ar
ches, built appearently to keep the
houses from collision.
So by devious and marvellous ways,
Ln inUial period of repression. But it! ^ ^'^ad to the business cen-
was much less than this that Stolj pm . _ _ .
achieved, and there Is no evidence
Successor to Fallieres.
M. Armand P'allieres will cease to
be president of the French republic^
on January 17, 1913. In little more
than one year, therefore, the nation
al assembly will meet at Versailles to
appoint his successor. The presMent
of the senate and the president of
the chamber of deputies, who rank
immediately after the chief of the
state, naturally stand the best chance.
These two exalted posts are held by
Antonin Dubost and M. Henri Brisson
respectively.
The probability that the national
assembly this time may seek else
where no doubt accounts for certain
candidates being discussed in politi
cal circles. Among these is that of
M. Emile I^ubet, whose seven years
at the Elyses were so successful. But
the ex-president of the republic is
neither deputy nor senator. One
would have thought that one who had
filled the highest point in the land
could find a place ready for him in
tke senate on h\A retirement. But no
provision whatever has been made m
the constitution for such contingen
cies.
If M. Loubet is again to be the
president he must first have a seat
in parliament. That is why_he is can
didate for an approaching senatorial
election in the Montelimar district
Should he be returned, a* movement
in favor of his re-election to tlie pres
idency of the republic will take
definite shape.
Echo of Toulon _©isaster.
As an echo of the Toulon disaster
one of the first things the French
parliament may have to do is to
pass a new addition to the pension
law. There is a curious clause at pres
ent which ^akes it necessary for the
death of any servant of the state to
receive official confirmation before a
pension is paid to his widow or liis
relatives. This clause leads to extra
ordinary complications in the case of
the Liberte accident, when men
>vere blown to pieces, wih no chance
for identification.
When it is possible for death to be
confirmed de visu French law de
mands a lapse of two years befoie
that death is considered officially
proved. After thel oss of the Jena
the widow of an officer who has been
blow'n to pieces was left aUsolutelj'
destitute. She had nothing but her
husband’s pay to live on, and the
two-year clause left ber without ft
penny. She applied to the admiralty,
but the admiralty, swathed in red
taiie was quite powerless. And lor
two years or more the poor woman
lived on subscriptions which were
got up for her by tlie brother officers
of the dead man. In the case of the
viberte there are many dead whow
bodies have not been recovered.
Something must be done for their
widows and children surely need as
sistance.

^ “Origin of Kingship”
The “Revue des Deux Mondes” has
„ brilliant article by Frank Bretano
on the origin of kingship. The old
chronicles give a certain color ^
feminist pretensions. Know, all stin-
necked men would deny women the
vote that, in medleaval times, the
sex had its part in the administration
of France. The queen held the purse
of state, and under, her orders was
the Chambrier or Chancellor of the
Exchequer. The hlerarchial order
was; King, queen, and eldest prince.
An old historian accuses the rpyjtl
consort of being too sharp. She made
money out of the bishops for the good
of the treasury. * ,
phillip Augustus was the first King
to break with the feminine tradi
tions; but, down to quite recent
times, the trace of primitive condi
tions i€ found. In the absence of
Louis XIV. Marie Theresa had to
sign and deliver the “lettres de
