and iimonj; the moi-t powerful figures
in Turkey. Djemal I'nsha is com
niamler of tho Turkish forces in
Syria and is reported to have adopt
ed severe measures to crush the rev
olution. The proclamation of the grand
sherif, addressed to all Moslem
brothers, follows:
"We were one with the jvernment
until the unionists appeared. Since
then ruin has overtaken the state,
which now has been drawn into this
fatal war. We bore with the union
ists, notwithstanding their departure
from the preceplH of religion, until it
became apparent that Kuvcr l'asha,
Djemal l'asha and Talaat Itcv abso
lutely ruled Turkey, iluinir whatever

handed twenty-one of the most hon

women were bereaved of Ibeir natural
protectors and subjected to foul tis

Dinting again yestorday on speedy cor
rupt practices legislation, threatened
to delay adjournment of congress and
precipitated a heated exchange be
tween republicans and democrats of
charges that each party had raised' a
huge campaign fund for use In the
coming elections.
In connection with his plea for ac
tion on his hill, Senator Owen de
clared that the existing contributions
law was a fraud upon the American
people; accused senate republicans of
deliberately trying to defeat his meas
ure and charged that the so-culled
lumber trust had sent $40,1)00 into
Oklahoma to defeat his renominatlon
because he voted to deny William
Lorimer a seat In the senate.

regret to say that many of those who
assisted in discrediting those men
hoped thereby to persuade the coun
