Its plan of government is to be prepared by an assembly of nobles. There is to be national militia, religious freedom and free navigation of the Danube. The Danubian fortresses are to be razed The tribute to be paid the Porte is to be settled by the great powers, and Bull garia is to assume her share of the Turkish debt. The Russian troops and provisional government shall be withdrawn within nine months.
 Eastern Roumelia is to have self-govern- ment and a Christian governor, but the Porte may fortify the frontiers. A European com missioner IS to determine the form of local government. The boundaries of this province are not given.
 Roumania, Servia, and Montenegro are de clared free; and Bosnia and Herzegovina are to be occupied by Austria.
 The Porte guarantees religious liberty throughout his remaining territories. Reforms are promised in Crete.

 The foregoing is single instance of many. A city government employs some irresponsi- ble ruffian as policeman he abuses his au- th0rity. and the court orders him to pay dam ages. He is then put in jail for four days till he can take the poor debtors oath. If cities are not responsible for the outrages of their policemen, in this state, as they are in many others why are not sufficient bonds required of the policeman for the proper discharge of his official duty2 This is required of all other officers, even of town constables.
