Excerpt from Facts About Armenia: Sassoon as Reported by a Native; Mr. Gladstone's Speech and Dr. Dillon's Article on Armenia

By his clear declaration in full Parliament as to the very special kind of the Sultan's independence, lord salisbury, the Prime Minister, quietly withdrew British support from the Ottoman throne. Abd-ul-hamid would tremble to the marrow Of his bones were he capable Of comprehending the full meaning of that solemn declaration. The Press heartily applauded the noble lord, and continues its campaign with encouraged hope. The waves Of opinion are now in greater fury roaring around the accursed Porte. According to all indications the thunders shall never hush until the thunderbolt shall strike and consume the disgraceful mechanism which has too long been tolerated to work human misery and demoralization. And that will be indeed a glorious achievement to the credit of the nineteenth century.

This philanthropic movement of Opinion was effected by the publication of the facts Since the last Armenian massacre, the horrible character Of Turkish misrule has been brought to growing light day after day, and the world stands now convinced that the Government Of the Sultan is not merely corrupt and weak, but that all its energies are used to execute the fiendish plan of exterminating the Christian Armenians at their historic home.
