The Greek* ar* a fighting race. Their history is lull of war and blood, victory and defeat, suitering and rejoicing. They know that Turkey is a greater power than Greece, .uid this does not dis- j nay them. Nothing dismays the Greek*. Deter-1 mined as they are A*al^mt, they have) plunged into thhi war na gayly %$ though | they were going to the Olympic cimfti. It cannot be raid that thrir king has dragged thetn Into a war. Th? impelling power has been the people. and If (he ktng ao desired he could net r*-train them. From the coast* and mountains the courageous Greeks are flocking to the national standard. More than thte. they are hurrying to Gree<<? from every part of the world. The Greeks of our <>wn country have been going back ever since they received notice that .they were wanted. and going as fast as they could raiae i the money to get there. ... Men of other nationalities, aympathlz ing with the Grecian cause, arc juuhur the Greak standard. us other men did nearly three-quarter.* <?f a century ago. All the world believes the cause of Grc^ce to be Just. p. Greece i? a small country with about 2.000.060 population. but all told there ar? r about 11.000.000 of Greeks, several mil* j'.; Hons of them under 1>irklBh dominion. In Albania and Macedonia ar?? many more Greeks than Turk*, and it Is liie hope and belief of the Greeks at Hon)'* that the most of their own blood and religion In Albania and Macedonia will be triad of || the opportunity to Join them, v.- Evidently. the Greek* are not. looking b' for a line of retreat, nor dp tjioy for a moment entertain the thought of defeat. S If the powers of Europe will withdraw t. their moral support from Turkey history p; may record that it wan reserved for i Greece, weak in numbers awl poor In money. to break th>? backtK>ne of the Turkish emplr? in Europe. Till* WoUlO oe UndiHU an a. t>iu|)UvOJ, I Mild yet It Is possible to see how the result f may come up to this desirable end. As I for the Greeks, they are acting as though ?hey had heard a voice from heaven commanding them to wade In and ck*an out the Turks. ElhtlbcrU Oplioilala Vmlth. F; ETthelberta. Opttmisu. Smith Is going to I, be married, and presently she will be preII siding over her own household. She will have servants to command and trades people to deal with, the cooking to super: intend and the whole household economy to direct and guard. b?* She does not know the least about any K of these things. Nor does she know how & to cot out a garment or to sew it by hand | or by machine. If sumebody had need of fl ft housekeeper EtfteiDena i^pumiau I, Smith would never be thought of. A person seeking a housekeeper wants one L who known how to keep house. This is I. not among Ethelberta Optimista's accomplishments. 8he has been "off to school." She has ' read seme Latin, learned to say "good j/ morning" in French, and with the assistance of a teacher, painted a picture which is the Joy of her parent* and the embarrassment of her critical friends. But they do not teach housekeeping - and sewing where Ethelberta went to school, and her mother never bothered ; - herself about practical things of this klod. So tt Is that Ethelberca Optimlsta Smith Is about to direct a business of | which she Is ubsolutly, woefully and b hopelessly Ignorant. I J* Somebody Is responsible for this and many somebodies will continue to be responsible for more of it until the people [. who ought to be more thoughtful | on this subject conclude that it ! is not fair to the girl and to the man she may marry to launch h? r out as the head r- of a business of which she has no know Ir edge whatever. The Ethelberta Opti j- vnlsta srnitns are w ?? iuur-u hcmuk i' there in In store f<?r them many a bad f- rj quarter of an hour, many an umbarrcssJ ment, many a heartache. Men are supposed to be stronger than wom"n. and yet It In not an every-day I occurrence that a man la placed In a position of control and direction In a business which ho knows nothing about. Why expect more of our young women than ; we do of our young m^n ? Territorial Appointments. The Republican party I* pledged to b homo rule In the territories, and so far an Kg.' President MeKlnley can contribute to jjr that result the pledge will b? kept He f. baa been a?ked to go on In th?? had old [ way, Bending to the torrltorlo* m?'n K.-\ whose abilities are not highly apprerlnted at horn?*, and he has come dmvn with a square refusal that took nway the breath of the aspirant*. By this tlm* our organised territories have within their own limits enough capable rn?*n to All all th<? offlcox they have to nil. The Republican party w?*j , right to declare that in this fespect tho territorial shall have home rule, and (he President doe* himself credit to resist all effort* to Induce him to disregard the party'* promt*?. The name rule mi*ht well be applied to the District of Columbia, within which are a? good men aa there are anywhere in the country. There Is no need to *o otiUtde Ot th?* Dijuricl vC Columbia lu fill any local office. PimbijIHUIB Investigation shows a sorry slate of affairs In .iome of the mining regions of Pennsylvania. There h actual want, almost starvation. and llt'.)e?hope for the future. It Is explained that the men found in this wituatlm are to a large ex font a cheap grad* of foreigners brought into1 the coal region* to take the places of American workmen who want better wages. This to a considerable exteat 1* true, and yet this class of wage-earners is made up of th* very kind of men who can live on very little money. Hungarians and Italians, who have never known the pleasures of the table. When.these men and their families are reduced to the verge of starvation, the inadequacy of their compensation Is made apparent. Surely It should not be necessary in this country to degrade any human beings to this level. ii, in oracr iu ram wiiijwmf ". ? mast br cut down so low iu IbJi, thtrc IB omethlnr radically wrong In the coal Ira Jr. And If the situation cannot l>e any better than this. It la because there haa been auch tbnmt-cutuni: anion* operators a* to make It uwwiry for them to cut the living out of the wages of their employes. The eagerness to do bu-:n-? at any CMC baa a tendency to brine down wages and to degrade labor, but It Is an ugly blot on this country when men who hare worked at all cannot get along better than the souli In the raining regions of P?nnavl wtnLi. For the past four year* we have not had a high tide of prosperity In West Virginia. Our coal Industry haa not done well. Coal operators have lost money or stood still, but with all this our miners have not bi*n farced down to the low lever of the miners of Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania they seem to be looking ta the legislature tr? solve the situation. How this is to be done remains to be developed. A solution by legislation Is not easy. The better way to get at it would be for the coal operators to agree that living wages are as rightfully a part *f ?be cost of production as the price of the lard or the royalty, the cost of their mules and the cost of their feed. They can't starve their mules. They should not starve their men. President McKlnley honored the craft of working newspaper men when he appointed oa first assistant po*tma!>ter general Co!. Perry S- Heath, a comparatively young man of rigorous character and a Rood representative of lib calling. From the beginning Colonel Heath has put the stamp of success upon the administration of hi* responsible offlse, and he la winning golden opinions from all suns of people. The success of one of its devotees in so important a position reflects *reat honor on American Journallsm. Thwe ?vbo profess to know txy that the trouble in Hraztl is In f?et the advance movement of a scheme t . overthrow the republic and restore the empire. The son-in-law of old !>om Pedro is believed to be the real moving spirit. Perhaps the republican Idea has not yet taken deep root In the Brazilian mind, and yet it will probably be some time before the old emperor's family will be abls to restore the knocked-down throne. American republics have troubles of their own, but they do not degenerate Into monarchies. About two years ago, when the New York Sun was trying to break down the Associated Press In the Interest of the United Press, of which the Sun was an Important part, that newspaper publish-J - 1IK-I >?- r,.Hk It Vnvod (,t the Washington Star. Now the Sun has made an abject apology in addition to paying Mr. Noyes several thousand dollars. And the United Press Is dead beyond ressurrection. The Associated Press was never so strong as It Is to-day. "Two yrnithful despot*" is Mr. Gladstone's fellcKlous characterization of the emperor of Russia and the cmporor of Germany. And the fate of Europe is to a large degree In the hands of thc3c green youngsters. Monarchy is a great thing in its way. If Europe did not hold so many Turkish s<*curltlep, that may be reduced to Insecurities, Europe might take a different attitude towards Turkey. Are we to expect civilization and religion to tftand between men and their money? When Jerry Simpson compels Speaker Heed to do something the speaker does not wish to do Jerry will be so old that earthly affairs will no longer have interest for him. Then Ijp won't want to compel the speaker. When England looks on Greece and Turkey her bosom must swell with pride when she contemplates her own attitude in respect of each of them.

It is surely fair tu lay at the dooi i.f that lawsuit all Hie repudiations ot Mate debts since scored up against th? honor and honesty of the United States A writer In Self Culture for April ha? flKured uj> the repudiations of the several states. They aggregate about J 150,000.000. This is a pretty large-sized blot upon our national escutcheon. Ii took a good many states (o furnish this shameful total in a period of about hull .1 century ThU total does not lnciud< the repudiation of ordinary claim* And floating debt*, but only the bonds repudiated. With two exceptions all repudiation I* chargeable to the South. t< itates once tainted by slavery. Th? two Northern exceptions are Minnesota nnd Michigan. Both made mistakes independent of all moral considerations The Michigan bonds were trivial Ir amount. Only a few bonds of an Issut were ever sold, and th?* state never got a dollar of the money, in- bank seiitn* th'*m falling. Of cours?? that vol no ex cuse. The state mad? fhe bank Id "" n? ? n.? f.niIt of the bond buyer that the state did not get Its money. The actual amount was nol given. Minnesota behaved better. Ther? was rascality, but the state paid th? boud holders all they had given for thf bonds. Instead of th* tace value. That was not no bad. but It was unfortunate It took several years fo. th?' *tj i- to recover from the stain and setback. The Southern mates really had no excuse. only that they were poor, and th< money was most of it squandered It li hard for a man or a state to discharge h debt that is largely In the nature of paying for a dead horse. Mississippi started the ball. The Legislature of thai state formally repudiated In 1842 a lot ol bonds authorised in 1538. Ten yean later n batch of bonds which had been issued In was repudiated. The entire financial public of Europe felt th# fhock of Mississippi, and one would have supposed that state credit would have received a blow from which then: could be no recovery, but the effect soor wore off. Kvsn Mississippi Itself had a chance to repeat its ahameful history a second time. The one encouraelnff feature of all this business Is that the** repudiation! are none of thorn recent. The latest occurred a quarter of a century ago. They all belong, we may hope, to the past. Most of them were directly traceablo tc the demoralization of slavery, others tc the distraction* and detractions of reconstruction. They will all noon bf mere matter of history, the Individual! originally tho parties In interest all d'-ad, and the bonds all gone, or if treasured at all. kept only as souvenirs.

Baltimore American: It Is not an easy matter to measure the strength of the two nations. The Greek* nre thorough aroused, and arc buoyed up toy an Intense hatred of the Turk and by a spirit of patriotism that bodes well for their success. The Turks ore great fighters against a weaker host, when they know that victory means plunder and plllac-. They are religious fanatics, and their warn have often tnkf>n the form a crusade for the crescem, nui they have no love for the tyrant who rul?*s over then*. Neither country la well supplied with the sinews <?f war. Their treaaurien ?r?* empty and their credit is way l>elow par omontj the money-lenders of Europe.
