WHAT FATE FOR ABDCL HAMIP? Sultan Abdul Hamld. sometimes sailed Abdul the Damned. sits with in the walls of his palace awaiting whatever fat may be in store. Near ly four decades ago he gained the throne 'by virtual usurpation, strength ening1 himself by the promise of a constitution to his people. During the Ruseo-Turklsh war. soon after. he easily put constitutionalism aside. Since then he hag been an absolute monareh, governing mainly through the aid of spies. Hi inability no one var questioned, but his moral char acter Is singularly unlovely. Main taining himself at home and keeeplng foreign powers off as much as mas terly diplomacy found possible under the circumstances, he has fought for his own hand first to last. Evident lack of patriotism perhaps contribut ed to Ms overturn us much as his proven enmity for free Institutions. At present his treacherous disposi tion constitutes the great difficulty of the constitutionalists in dealing with him. They can no more trust him to kep faith than the British Parliamen tarians could trust Charles I. It is the wise desire of Abdul Hi mid's foes to avoid any such sudden and violent breach with the past as might Invite reaction, for his position as titular Caliph or Commander of the Faithful still gives him great Strength In the Moslem world and has already occasioned one fanatical out break lo his behalf. But perhaps the constitutionalists will And themselves left with no choice. When Cromwell had wearied of a Parliament which commanded nobody's respect he ap peared before It, and, after enumerat ing its shortcomings drove it forth. "Tour hour Is come." said the etern Puritan theocrat. military dictator, man of Iron; "the Lord hath done with you." Something like what was eald to this Parliament may be, said to 8ultan Abdul Hamld. LAYING WASTE THE LAXD.

In short, mo shown by census reports and so re :' gtrded by people of other sections. . Isn't It time for us to about face and change these things? Secretary TVI1 aon aays that with seven year of good ) farming the average Southern land would be worth $y0 an acre. Is not " that, with all that It would mean, a prise worth striving for?" And as masna in thl hljMv rienlrnhle end everal maxims are laid down. Land must not be permitted to wash; no one must take from his land without i. making proper return to It; the supply v; of humus as well as of plant food must .- le kept up, green crops, turned un er. largely supplying the need; crops moat be rotated, leguminous crops ! playing an important part. Surely these are things easily done, and the reward In prospect Is great.

Many transgressions, as where - - 8a and readily marketable mountain - trees svre stripped of "their bark and left to Insects, proceed from .jnere sblfUessness. With Southern farms . producing only about half as much ' apiece as North Atlantic and North Central farms, it would seem clear s , that our; very wasteful habits cannot be even temporarily profitable.

It has long; been the testimony of those acquainted with him, that the osmarni Turk la a really fine fellow No more temperate mortal exists as regards meat and drink. Brave, har dy aad loyal, he makes one of the best soldier In the world. Cnder or dinary circumstances he appears to be peaceable enough his participation in the racial and religious disturbances of hi empire is probably less than that of any other large element. It has long been believed that If the Turk ever shook off the corrupt despotism which made for weakness without and anarchy within he would give a good account of himself. For years there was a party of progre&s and enlight ened patriotism, and this party, final ly gaining over the army, 'triumphed after many sufferings. Revolution came bloodlesely The victors, or Young Turks, instituted an elective Parliament In which all the empire's rare and religions enjoyed represen tation, the only complaint being against an alleged gerrymander. Ap parently the recent revolt at Constan tinople was Inspired by reactionary elements and had somewhat the na ture of an attempted counter-revolution. The troops outside the city at Ealonikl adhered to the Young Turks. Fighting became Inevitable. The out come was remarkable, not a the vic tory of one party and defeat of an other, but because it did credit to both. Though the troops in Constantinople found themeelves practically without officers or regular discipline of any kind, they committed no outrages whatver; though the troop from Sa lonlkl became masters of the city af ter bloody fighting with the garrison, they kept perfect order; rich and cos mopolitan Constantinople had nothing to fear from either party. The Sul tan, suspected by the victors of In citing the revolt, was made prisoner In his palace through simple military Investment. Military men, according to a published statement, have no opinion about hla status. They mere ly Intervened to save the constitution al regime and will leave Abdul Hamld In the hands of Parliament. The self restraint shown on all sides Is Im pressive. Surely this people must have some genuine capacity for self- government. Unlike the "red fool fury of the Seine." Constantinople does not prepare to "heap her barricades with dead." She considers one revolution enough, and shows no indication of a desire to continue bloodily revolv- ing, off and on, for nearly a hundred years. No one doubts that the constitution al government Is exerting Its best ef forts to suppress the disorders in Asiatic Turkey, where with wild Kurds and Circassians as the chief offenders. there have been orgies of murder and plunder. The Young Turks, In a word, are showing themselves desir able citlrens of the modern world. They should have all proper encourage ment in their present undertakings. As a result of recent observations Dr. Osier announces that while drain age campaigns against malaria in the form of the mosquito have Immense value, quinine can seldom be dispens ed with altogether Wasn't It tni same knight of the chloroform hand kerchief who not so very long ago de- lared that he placed no value upon any drug except nux vomica? Either he has changed his mind or become oslerized. With The London Times, the tradi tional chief mouthpiece of British na tional sentiment, practically coming out for tariff reform which in Eng land means the abandonment of free trade for protection It begins to look a if protection, for thl generation at least, has taken almost a univer sal a hold upon practical economist as the gold standard. Some factionallst sheets in Tennes see want exiBenator Carmack's widow to withdraw her application for the Columbia, Tenn., potofflce rather than have Governor Patterson give her can didacy support. If w ever thanked God that we were not as other new, papers it would be when w saw such a display of senseless rancor and malice. If Mr. Taft doesn't end the Judge ship vaudeville very soon, he will have an experience like that which be fel the heroic Tom Sawyer when Prof. Huck Finn heard him confess without shame that he had helped the nigger Jim run away. He will fall considerable In our estimation. Gentle reader, do you find the tariff a bore? Then you are a man arter Senator Aldrlch's own heart. This statesman and the interests which he so ably represents ask nothing better than that the public should display Incurable Indifference to what he and they write. This monkey-farce of a judgeship contest Is becoming almost insufferable. We should never have expected Mr. Taft to treat an appointment to the Federal bench In any such manner. For the benefit of certain slow-witted contemporaries we rlee to remark that the quotation marks may now be DR. M'BBAYP TO D0CT0BS MED. COLLEGE COUlXTCEMEXT Interesting Addrew Made Last XIght in tbe Academy of Masic Before the Graduating Class of the XorUt Carolina Medical College by Ashev vllle Physician Dot lares That Daily enrpapers Have Been Moat Potent Factor in Charlotte's Growth Crg Young Doctor to B Trae to the Ideals of Service Cpbeid by the Medical Profession Cntil the Public Has Dome to Expect It as a Matter of Course. Ending a year of successful tuition In the science of saving human life, the North Carolina Medical College last night sent forth nineteen young men, candidates, all, for admission to the profession, bearing certification of tbetr attainments. Exceptionally happy was tbe cele bration of the event. An interested and representative audience of about six hundred had gathered in the Academy of Music when the faculty and graduates marched upon the ros trum. Rendering sweet muie in the pit played the Davldon College Stu dent Orchestra. Artificial scenery. aided by potted plants, removed from the background the leat vestige of monotonous aspect and added to the alluring charm of the whole affair. The conspicuous event of the even ing was the address to the graduating class by Dr. L. B. McBrayer. a prom inent physician of Ashevlll and a member of the State board of medi cal examiners. His address proved that not only is he a physician of wide knowledge and of skill, but a thinker and a master of the English language quite as truly. When Rev. W. M. Klncaid had of fered an eloquent prayer for the In stitution which furnished the occa sion, for the doctors-to-be and for the entire profession. Dr. J. P. Mun- roe, president of the college, who was master of ceremonies, introduced In complimentary terms. Dr. McBrayer, the speaker of the evening. Expressing appreciation of the hon or conferred on him by the Invitation to officiate. Dr. McBrayer expressed especial pleasure at being privileged to come to Charlotte. "Charlotte," said the speaker, "Is truly a great city. It is great In Its manufacturing establishments; it Is great In Its busi ness enterprises; It Is great as an educational centre, it Is great as a railroad centre; It Is great a a medi cal centre; It Is great In Its news papers No other agency, probably, has been so powerfully Instrumental In compassing Its tine expansion as that of its splendid dally papers. It l great in its wealth, it is great in culture; for Its noble men and Its lovely women. I am here to Join with The Charlotte Observer In say ing that Charlotte Is the greatest city in all tlte Southland with the lngle exception of Aahevllle. (Laughter.) I will also Join my friend. Mr. Cald well, Mr. Dowd and Mr. Taft, and al most everybody else. In recognizing the fact that the Mecklenburg Decla ration of Independence was signed right here." A MEDICAL CENTRE. Dr. McBrayer expressed a high pinion of this city as a medical Mecca, possessing in addition to the college f medicine a corps of ef ficient hospitals The Charlotte San atorium, li declared, is not excelled by any intltutlon North or Bourn, large or small. "These splendid hos pital facilitle and the excellent re (ults obtained therein are only pos sible on account of the high attain ments of the Individual members of the profession of your city, whose reputation la not confined by State lines. 1 "The college from which you gradu ate,'' the speaker continued, "was the first medical school for whites to recelxe a charter In this Slate; but, long before this. the preparatory school of medicine conducted by the president of your fac ulty. Dr. Mull roe, especially the quiz course to pre pare young doctors for the State board, hospital, army and navy and other examinations conducted by the same distinguished gentleman and educator, had an enviable reputa tion." Its reputation, he said, has ex panded pari passu with Its growth in equipment and curriculum. ' Everyone who enters upon our noble profeMion owes it to himself and his confreres to be a success. And 1 do not use the word In the latter day acceptation of the term, from a financial standpoint, only; though I would not have you believe for a moment that I decry this stan dard altogether It Is my opinion, after mature deliberation, that the doctor is paid less, in proportion to the service rendered, than any other man, be he laborer, artisan or pro fessional man; for who can measure the alue of the human life?" "Success Is a relative term and it ha been truthfully said that there Is a dignity In mediocrity as well as a dignity of greatness and the best doc tor is often one of whom the public hears least. Eah member of this graduating class has but one chance in one hundred thousand to become the greatest physician In the United States; and but one chance In two thousand to become the leading physi cian in this grand old State, but each one of you has one chance in one anywhere to attain the happiest and most useful lot given to man; that is to be a vigorous, w hole-souled, in telligent, up-to-date physician. BELONGS TO PATIENTS. " No physician has the right to consider himself as belonging to him self Is a saying attributed to Aris totle, and it has become a maxim, ac cepted as uch by 11 the people. They expect from you the heroism of con stant service not the kind that does one flaring deed that makes men stare and shout but the kind of courage that, regardless of personal risk, is never wanting. They expect you to give up days and nights, sleep and pleasure to the battle with dis ease snd vice." If unwilling to make the sacrifice, the speaker reminded his hearers that It was not yet too late to turn back. To be successful one must be loyal to his profession, to his patient and to himself. The accumulated knowl edge of the centuries, laboriously compiled, is the student's for the asking. Journals supply the cream of contemporaneous knowledge. The great achievements of the pro fession may be considered in erss We have the era of, ansesthesia. a greater boon to mankind has prob ably never been discovered. The a medical license law.' and fori many years we stood at the head ta tbe galaxy of States m the high standard required of the man who .would ea ter the profession. But -such is not the case to-day. Our Stat Legisla ture t has from time to time lowered our standards, aad that, too, over tbe protests of the physicians of the State, while many of oar sister States bavs been raisin r theirs: and when we bave asked our Legislature to Im prove our laws, they have given us a stone when we asked for bread and why? Because the politician thinks that the influence of tbe il literate voter is worth mere to him than the influence of the doctors. w must, and will show him that he is mistaken." ) Tbe medical colleges have answered the appeal but they cannot give a man a medical educa tion who is fundamentally deficient In learning. "J congratulate the stu dents of the North Carolina Medical College on the fact that one-third of the students this year are graduates, while many more of them have had one, two or three years work In some literary college.

REAL OMNIPOTENCE. "I have seen," exclaimed Dr. Mc Brayer. "in the darkness of midnight the forked lightning leap from hill to hill, from crest to crest, and cut and shiver the Inky clouds into rivers of fire, while the thunder rolled and reverbrated in the distance, and the universe trembled In the titanic pow er of the storm kind, and I exclaim ed. 'How beautiful, how grand, how sublime In the omnipotent power of God!' But. my friends, the most beautiful, the grandest, the subllmest creation or manifestation 'of God's omnipotence Is a man, created la hi own Image, who loves his fellow man. One who ministers to the wants and necessities of his fellow msn as soft ly and gently as the moonbeams fall upon the midnight sea, one who vis its the sick and fills the room with a MAKE READY NOW. Time to Let Southern Power Com pany Know Who Are to Avail Themselves of the Offer of Free Power For Electric Illumination For May 20. The committee on the decoration for the 20th of May wishes the at tention of the Charlotte public di rected again to the desirability for taking Immediate steps to this end. It Is hoped that the illumination by citizens and business establishments may far exceed that of last year when the Democratic State convention was entertained, and afterwards the Re publican. The Southern Power Com pany has agreed to furnish the power free. It Is necessary that those who will avail themselves of this oppor tunlty notify the company not later than the firBt of May, so that the proper arrangements may be made and the necessary material procured. The work of the committee, which has to do primarily with the public illumination, has resulted In a plan which when realized will dazzle by Its beauty. A part of the decorative scheme will be the placing of seventy monuments, of wood, but painted white, and bearing the lettering. "May 20th. 17 7 5." along the streets from thn Southern station down East Trade, down South Tryon to More- "MIBEWfl ib or I Jln...

"To-night I wish I were an orator, that I might paint for you a word picture, that would portray more graphically and heautlfuly than sculptor's chisel or artist's brush, the greatness and glory of the medical profession. Could I borrow from the sun his cheery smile, from the moon her golden beams of light, from the outhern zephrys their softness, from the rose its fragrance, from the rain bow its celestial beauty, from the babbling brook Its laughter and song, from the sea Its awe and wonder, from the valley Its serenity, from the mountains their majesty snd put these down upon a piece of azure blue sky, with comets for commas, and planets for periods, I might then paint for you the picture. Until then, let u be true to our trust. "After all. we cannot fail to real ize that we ar econstantly fighting a foe that oiust sooner or later accord ing to the Immutable laws of nature, come out victorious. From the edict, All that is born must die. all must submit to the dominion of death.' there is no appeal and after a little while they will say of each member of this graduating class, of each member of our profession, as they did of the great physician 'He saved others, himself ha cannot save.' And when the day of capitulation shall arrive, when that inevitable hour shall have come, may a certain grim adversary recognize a noble foe and gently deal with the doctor." At the conclusion of Dr. McBray er's address and when the applause had subsided, the diplomas were pre sented to the graduates. The follow ink were the graduates: Messrs. 6- L Autry. R. L. Brown. R.

The advertising fair and sample sale at No. 21 South Tryon treet under the auspices of the ladle of the Church of the Holy Comforter opened yesterday with marked signs of suc cess.

To the Editor of The Observer: Geography, like history, should be kept straight. Referring to the, propos ed government survey of the Pee Dee river from Cheraw, S. C to Blewett's Falls, you ay in yesterday's paper: "There Is enough water In the Yadkin between Blewett's Falls and Cheraw to float a boat such as plies between Wilmington snd Fayettsville." As a matter of fact there isn't a drop of water in the Yadkin river anywhere In the neighborhood. It is the Pee Dee. or the Great Pee Dee. I was born snd raised within the sound of Its mighty voice, have boated on Its bosom and fished for suckers along its shady banks. It bears the name of Pee Dee from the confluence of the Yadkin and the Uwharte, thirty-five miles above Blewett's Falls and fifty miies above the South Carolina line, to where It empties Into the ocean at' George town, S. C. Col. R. T. Bennett ssys in his obituary to the late John B. In gram, of Anson county: "Hard by, the Great Pee.
