SPECIAL TRAIK TO RICHMOND,
YIK6INIA.
One month of the Balkan war hat
amazed Europe even more than it was
amazed when Japan drove Russia back
through Manchuria.
As Ihe World had predicted, it was
“not a little war” that began last
month. Huge armies were put into
the field The allied states are larger,
more j opulous and more wealthy than
Turkey in Europe; more grimly patient
in preparation for war; less fatalistic;
more progressive; better provided with
transportation. They had, it now ap
pears, a plan of campaign which avoided
the misunderstandings which have so
often handicapped allied armies.
The Greeks have taken Epirus and
Silonica, The Servians, with Uskub,
their ancient capital, secure, are
drivirg on toward the Adriatic, where
Austria says they must not stay. The
Montenegrins have taken some territory
and a number of little towns but are
checked at Scutari. The Bulgarians
drove straight at the enemy’s heart
and are pressing the capital to prove
that Turkey cannot now choose her
terms of peace.
The selfish interference of Austria
may prevent ideal terms of settlement,
but with more than half a million of
the allies in the field there will be no
repetition of the full villainy of the
Berlin Congress. The openly expressed
sympathy of the Bohemians with the
Southern Slavs may warn even Austria
to moderate her insane desire to rule
more millions of rebellious, conspiring
subjects.
Constantinohle the allies do not
expect to dispose of. They may fairly
expect to secure for Bulgaria an out
let on the Egean Sea; for Greece, Crete
and Epirus; for Montenegro, Scutari,
and for Servia a part at least of Old
Servia, Upon gerrymandering the
outlines of the proposed principality of
Albana the diplomats of bigger pow
ers may chiefly expend their gift for
evil-doing, though Salonica and Con-
•tantinople will present pietty pro
blems to solve or fumble.

Strenuous efforts are reported
being made in Virginia to stir
sympathy lor the Allens, who shot
Judge Massie, Sheriff Webb, State**
Attorney Foster, a juror and a woman
witness, with a view to saving two of
the men convicted from death. A
preacher is said to be leading the
movement. The shooting up of the
court is still in the public mind, the
killing hav’ng occured last March at
Hillsville, Va. The awful tragedy
stunned and then horrified the nation.
The occasion for the killing was the
conviction of a member of the gang for
a minor offense. The Allens were
desperadoes who lived in the mountains
and set law at defiance at will. They
thought they were greater than the
law. Only a maudlin sentiment that
flourishes when the dead are turned to
dust and the living are in danger o
paying the penalty can explain sach
efforts to save the Allens from the full
and ! satisfaction of the law.
Theirs is an exceptionally aggravated
case, and one where reasons for
sympathy seem lacking, except for
those who abhor the death penalty
under any circumstances. Nashville

sentence of the four gunmen, a death
sentence of gang rule, a death sentence
of the System. And then what?
Foi a little while a purified city; and
then a new Becker, now gunmen, a new
gang rule, a new System, a r'»surrec-
tion of all the evils which we think we
I are burying, unless there is also passed
a death sentence on the conditions which
directly created these evils.
So long as an Anglo-Saxon hypocrisy
persists in making felonious everything
that it '’onsiders shocking, so long as
it brands as crimes those prrcticea
which other broader-minded and equally
civilized nations handle as public
nuisances, so long as an Albany Legis
lature takes it upon itsels to decree a
rigid, standardized, criminally enforce
able code of manners and of morals
for a city nearly half of whose inhabi
tants come from a score of foreign
lands each with its own customs and
standards, as long as such a Legis
lature strives to create fiat chastity,
fiat sobnety and fiat frugality in
conformity with its own professed
ideals, and binds our local authorities
by oath to treat any divergence from
these ideals as crimes, just so long
will human nature, following the
dictates of its foibles, evade such laws
by subterfuge and by corruption.—*
