time there has been raised up a wiser 

 and more benevolent generation of dip- 

 lomats? Yet the Near East is always 

 hoping for a solution and end of the in- 

 sufferable conditions which, under the 

 Old Turks, made, and now under the 

 Young Turks are making, of the Otto- 

 man Empire a byword.

 Bulgarians, Greeks, Servians, and the 

 very Turks themselves are suffering, as 

 for ages, from the blight of Turkish 

 rule. Of these unfortunate peoples, the 

 Albanians are among the first who should 

 receive the attention of an unselfish out- 

 side world.
