MONTENEGRO TROOPS
MARCH ON SCUTARI
Montenegrin Threats Were Considered
Lightly by Turkey, Which I Not
Ready for War ea Frontier,
London. Eng., Oct. 11. The fall of
the Turkish city of Scutari is immi
nent. Unless Turkish reinforcements I
arrive soon the town, with its maim- I
faeturies of firearms, will be taken by
the advancing Montenegrin army. The
Ottoman government took ligntly Kbn-
tenegrin threats, and the Turkish mil
itary authorities were not prepared on !
that frontier as on the Servian and j
Bulgarian borders. I
King Nicholas, with his Montenegrin j
troops, followed up their success by '
capturing the fort guard in Tushi, thus j
paving the road for an advance on
Scutari and an official telegram re- j
ceived by the consul of Montenegro in
London says the advance has begun.
It is pointed out here that the way j
cannot be traveled without serious i
fighting, as the Albanians in the vi
cinity have been aroused by Turkish
emissaries and are expected to join
the Ottoman troops. News from other
parts of the Montenegrin frontier is
more conflicting.
If, as is generally believed, Monte
negro precipitated her declaration of
war as a part of the strategy of the
Balkan allies, the unpreparedness of
Turkey on her frontier must have In
fluenced her decision.
Montenegro Claims Victory.
Montenegro claims the first victory
in the Balkan war by the capture of
the strong Turkish, position on Detch
ltch mountain, whose commander sur
rendered with the bulk of his forces.
Montenegrins also crossed the frontier
near Berana and according to the
Turkish account, have been repulsed.
Th situation meanwhile is as puz
zling as before. No declaration of war
has been issued by the other allied
Balkan states and there is no news of
their ministers having left Constanti
nople. It cannot be definitely said
whether Montenegro has acted Inde
pendently, with the motive of forcing
a conflict so as to render the efforts
of the powers to preserve peace nuga
tory or in accordance with a strategic
plan arranged by the Balkan coali
tion. TURKS HAVE FORCE
OF 400,000 MEN
Ottoman Government for Month Has
Been Concentrating Forces Sorrth
of Bulgarian Frontier.
Constantinople, Turkey, Oct 11.
(Wireless from a steamer in the Dar
dendelles to Kustenje Rumania.) No
fewer than 140,000 Turkis htroops
from Asia Minor, it is estimated, will
be concentrated within a week in Eu
ropean Turkey. This will bring the
force of the Turkish army to 400,000.
Turkish officials say the depots are
full of stores and arrangements com
plete. If the Bulgarians are counting on
the superiority of their organization
and the greater rapidity with which
their army can be mobilized to give
them a material advantage, they will,
according to Turkish officers, receive
a disagreeable surprise.
The Ottoman authorities for months
have been strengthening defences and
concentrating 'troops in the important
zone comprising Adrianople and Kirk
KJIisseh, j list south of the Bulgarian
frontier. Since the general mobiliza
tion was ordered a great stream of
men has been pouring into the dis
trict at the rate latterly of 20,000
dally.
Turkish officers recognize the splen
did qualities of the men in the ranks
of the Bulgarian army. '
The .reliability of the Christians serv
ing in the ranks of the Turkish army
is one of the great problems of the
moment . or the Ottoman command- j
era The Armenians are expected to
behave loyally, but it is said that it i
would show ignorance ot human nature
to expect Greeks to fight against j
wreeKg or Bulgarians against Bulga
rians, and there are many of these na
tionalities in Turkey.
The feeling among the native Chris
tians may be gaged to a certain ex
tent by their efforts to escape from
service by the payment of a tax or by
bolting abroad.
MONTENEGRINS WIN
BATTLE WITH TURKS I
Fodgoritza, Montenegro, Oct. 11. i
Montenegrins have captured Detchitch j
mountain, while the Turkish com- i
mander and officers, with many sol- J
diers, have surrendered. Strongly for- '
tified positions were occupied by the
Tucks on Detchitch mountain, which
commands the roH t Scutari and re-
inforcements were brought up, result-
ing in a general engagement, which
extended along the line for several
miles. King Nicholas remianed at his
headquarters at Fodgoritza, while
crown prince Danilo directed operations
at the front.
Meanwhile a great battle was on
near the Turkish town of Tushi. about
15 miles south of Podgoritxa. At 4
o:lock in the afternoon the Turkish
commander on Detchitch mountain,
with his officers and a majority of his
troops, surrendered. The Montene
grins captured four guns.
The Montenegrin standard was
hoisted over the captured position.
There were heavy losses on both
sides, but the Montenegrin camp gave
itself over to rejoicings on the first
victory of the war.
A division of Montenegrins command
ed by Gen. Vokotuch crossed the fron
tier near Berana.
I TURK STUDENTS
CLAMOR FOR WAR
Constantinople, Turkey, Oct 8. (De
layed in transmission.) A violent
storm of opposition has been aroused
by the Turkish government's decision
to grant reforms in Macedonia.
Some 2008 students, armed with re
volvers marched to the porte, clamor
ins for "war and no surrender." On the
way they met the minister of war to
whom they shouted "we want war."
The minister replied:
"Nobody wants peace.
Arriving at the porte, where the min
isters were sitting- in council, the stu
dents, whose numbers had swollen to
more than 6000. broke the windows of
the grand vizierate, shouting, "we will
not have the treaty of Berlin."
The grand visler, Ghazi Ahmed Mukh
tar Pasha, assured them that the appli
cation of article 23 of the treaty of
Berlin did not mean autonomy or in
dependence for Macedonia, was received
with hisses. He persisted, however,
saying that the longer it was delayed
the better it was for Turkey; but the
cries of "hurrah for war" continued
unabated.
Eventually the grand vizier promised
to receive a deputation of the students
and the crowd dispersed.

ROOSKVKIT NOT A "PROGHESSIVB."
El Paeo. Tex., Oct 10.
Editor El Paso Herald:
"You might search the country wide
and you could not find a better man
for president of the United States
than Taft" so said ex-president
Roosevelt just after Taft's first nomi
nation for the presidency. Now I
paraphrase this by saying, "You might
search the country wide and you could
not find a worse man for president
than Roosevelt"
Mr. Roosevelt I- saji Mr. advisedly)
i i not a "progressive.
He is an "ag
gressive." He has attacked the lion
in his lair and lanced him. without
provocation. He has treated Taft
with ingratitude. He has treated Ia
Follotte with contempt, and because
he cannot rule the Republican party
be is trying to ruin it
I rredicted Taft's nomination suc
cessfully; new I predict his election,
which prediction will also be verified.
Rooievelt considers the people one
mass of credulity. Geniuses are only-
one removed from loois. They iook
upon tli peot-le as but one removed
from themselves and all fools. Mr.
Roosevelt's "Onward Christians
March" is the senith of hypocrisy.
There is nothing in his entire career
which discredits him more than this.
This is plainly practicing upon the
credulity of the masses.
This graft has been exploited upon
the superstitious, by self-styled smart
men. since long before
unnst
was
conceived. Faith is blind
and
loses
the end it works for.
Mr. Roosevelt is discredited in his
home state, New York. The Demo
cratic party is asunder there. New
York is, as usual, the pivotal state.
Thus, it is seen that the Republican
party will carry New York and Taft
to victory. B. I. Egerton.

DOGGIBS AND STOGIES.
Editor El Paso Herald:-
In the cars of our city lines are
posted two notices one, that dogs
most not be carried on the cars,
penalty $25; the other, that smoking
is not allowed on the cars, penalty
J10.
While the dog notice Is well ob
served and r:gidly enforced, the smok
ing notii-c seems to be a dead letter.
Whether it is because so many who
should lo-. after the enforcement ot
the law sm ike themselves, or it is a
propaganda in favor of "personal lib
erty," w! know not: but from the
number of smokers that daily try to
fill the cars with tobacco smoke, we
have abut concluded that men, wom
en and children who do not smoke,
have n: rights that smokers are
bound to inspect
The smoker should not deprive us
of the pure air that God has given us,
and fill our mouths and nostrils with

HARRIS KRUPP,

no smokers in it got such a dose of
smoke fn a Fort Bliss car that she
was very sick for several days in con

ever so slight why could not the

sickness and injury caused by inhal

Some of tnese days this may be tried.
I am not a smoker, but have been

I fancied myself immune, but one day
in a crowded Boulevard car, a young
man in front of me kept puffing away
at a cigaret and a man behind me
had a big black cigar, so rank It must
have been made of "skunk cabbage;"
he kept pulling .and puffing for all tt
was worth. Thus I was between "two
smokes," which was too much for me,
and I had a racking headache for the
balance of the day.
Personal liberty? Suppose half a
dozen men should get on one of these
cars some morning and begin to eat
a lunch of garlic and Hmburger cheese.
Wouldn't a loud protest arn an from
the occupants of that car? The of

THE SAXTA PE'S FRB16MT SERVICE.
t.-,. . Paso, Oct io.
Eaitor El Paso Herald:
One of my fritnds called mv atten
tion to the clipping attached which ap
peared in your paper October 8, under
the heading, "Trade of the Silver Citv
District"
TVe are getting accustomed to criti
cism in the papers, some of which we
think are. not exactly fair, but we have
felt that it was the policy of The Her
ald to give the railroads some consid
eration. I believe your paper was one
of the strong advocates of the trade
excursion which you speak of. and I
sincerely hope that the reasons you
have given for the necessities of the
trade excursion are based on more
facts than are contained in the article
referred to.
There is always room for improve
ment in our freight service, but a care
ful canvass of the real shippers in El
Paso will show that, we have no serious
complaints about the handling of
freight between El Paso and Silver City
district.
Several of the largest receivers of
freight in Silver City are in El Paso at
present. I have talked with them, and
one calls my attention to the fact that
about eight years ago he had a car
load of freight which moved though El
Paso and that it never reached Silver
City. I hoped this was a closed Inci
dent but possibly the source of your
information, regarding our serviee mot
discovered this car, hence, his report of

corns, bunions, callouses and warts. It
works painlessly, but it shrivels 'em
