No longer will the beadsman bo kept busy satisfying the whims af the "Sick Man ot the East." The people's rights and their liberty are now safeguarded and they are willing to forget the eruel past and call the Sultan blessed. While tbe establishment ot the constitutional government came as a surprise to th aeople.

all knew that something must be done by the Sultan or be would be driven from the country. Few thought that be would yield so completely as he has done. For many yeara a great political party baa been growing up In Turkey. It took the name af the "Young Turks" and labored for the re-establishment of the constitutional government. It carried en a revolution unlike any revolution in history.

Bloodshed was aoi part of Its creed. It worked silently, but effectively. Few knew the proportions to which It had reached, sod all were surprised when they learned that more than 90 per cent of the soldiers of the country were allied with the movement and were sworn not to raise a saber or to "fire a shot in defense of the Sultan against the-Young Turks.

This message came like a thunderbolt In the Ylldls Kiosk. The Sulton waa furious. He sent for Ferid Pasha, long his favorite, and dismissed him on the spot. He then summoned the former Grand VUler.
