This argument had such an authoritative effect on people's minds that it could be used to sanction any kind of abuse. A curious instance of this was the toleration dis- played regarding the fanatical agitation of a daily called Volcano and secretly supported by the palace. Although the dangers connected with such an agitation were clearly perceived, no action was taken against the Volcano, because " there existed clerical papers of the same nature in France and other European countries. " On th...e same grounds the organization and public demonstrations of a reactionary Mohammedan League were tolerated. The atmosphere of Constantinople seemed to be full of explosives. In different parts of the provinces also, there had always been some kind or other of trouble and revolt. Lack of control was noticeable everywhere. The extrava- gant waste of energy and the resulting social deficit prepared a situation where strong and restrictive action was bound to appear. On April 5, 1909, Hassan Fehmi, the editor of the opposi- tion daily Serhesti, was mysteriously shot on the street.
