The postponement of the settlement of the Balkan question is but a temporary truce. The Porte has pursued its usual policy of procrastination, but the end is in sight. The world is beginning to see that the Empire of Turkeytis a myth; that its Sultan is a. specter; that its power is but vapor. \ ‘ The \B511E§n' “Preh'ipdtentiari“es \have presented an ultimatum to Turkey upon which speedy action must be taken. The Porte it is stated has decided to call a National’ Assembly, but any gathering of government o that he might evoke would not have signi as representative of~ any power, for there is-no patriotism throughout the land over which the Sultan appears to have dominion. The hour of the Turk has struck, and none know it better than the Great Powers of Europe who dare .not_thwart the Balkan peoples in their plans. .

The Grand Council of the Ottoman Empire, according to the press dis- patches of this morning, has decided in favor of accepting the proposals put forward by the European APowers,.for the purpose of bringing about the conclusion of peace. Adrianople will be ceded to the Balkan States, and the future disposition of the Zlilgean Islands rests with the victors. The rule of the Turk in Europe thus virtually comes to a close, after twelve hundred years of alien dominion. The State Highway Deparbmenb is to be reorganized should a. bill incroduced by Sengbor M tirbaugh beceme an e'na‘ct- ment of the Legislature. The measure eonforms with the ideas of Governor Sulzer, and there is liable doubt‘) but; than it. will become a law.

With the surplus on hand at the heghming of the year 1912, the receipts were a Iittleover $5,000. The chief saurce of revenue is the pew rents, which amounted to $1,616. .The regular Sunday basket offerings were $758, and the Christmas collection 8540. During the year there were expended nearly- $2,300 on an addition to and repairs to the parochial residence. - The spiritual side of the Church work was very satisfactorily shown.
