BoLoYY's personal character. He has four
times challenged mon to . duel, and each
time publicly cbastised them on their re-
fusal. A signal demonstration OF fearless
ness was the arrest Of Major PANITzA by the
Prime Minister himself in the dead Of night.
The danger Of the partially revealed plot
was imminent, and PANrrzA's reputation for
violence made tho question Of his seizure
difficult. There was no time 10 lose, and
rather than trust to subordinate officials, who
might be In league with the culprit or cowed
by him. STAMBoLoFF decided to act himself.
Unsrmed and alone he entered the bedroom
and babe PANITxA follow him as his prisoner.
A loaded revolver was lying by the bed. but
the desperate never thought OF resisting the
domination Of . courage superior to his own.
Mr.. srAMBoLoFF explained in detail to
his English visitor his political principles
and purposes. The Bulgarians, he said.
were determined to show their contempt for
Russia and their resolve not to be bullied by
her. Their country waa to be sure. only .
little State, but 1t formed an impenetrable
barrier. 30 long as 1t was suffered to exist
to Russian advance. STAMBoLorFs funda-
mental aim, It seems has always been
confederation OF the Balkan States. Slngly.
they must fall In the end, and, when they
are out Of the way, Russia can do what she
likes with Constantinople. But just as they
are necessary to Turkey. 90 Turkey Is neces-
sary to them. Any other power once lodged
at Stamboul would mean the end Of tho
Balkan nationalities. The Bul9arians are.
therefore. anxious to keep up tho bond with
Turkey II she will only shake OF her inde-
cision and lethargy, and afford them moral
support through her recognition OF their
self-won political status.
II Turkey refuses such recognition. Mr..
SrAMBoLoFF avowed his conviction that
Bulgaria would declare herself independent.
He admitted that such declaration would
be followed by war. possibly with Turkey.
but moro probably with Servia, urged on by
Russia. But war he does not seem to fear.
Its worst outcome would be q Russian occu-
patton, and that - he frankly admits, would
be tho result Of the present anomalous situ-
alton. should this be permitted to continue.

Justice to Foreigners.

hard case was reported In tho news
papers yesterday morning. An immigrant
arrived at this port on his way to Lathrop
Pa. whore he expected to find employment
This was his third visit to America, but
when the immigration officers ascertained
that he was an Irishman by birth. and had
never been admitted to citizenship In the
United States. they detained him and de-
cided to send him back to Ireland.
Any law which requires such q decision
Of tho Federal authorities seems unneces-
sarily harsh in its operation. It is difficult to
see what harm could como to the Amer
ican people from allowing this immigrant
to land hero for the third time to pursue his
peaceful way into the neighboring common
wealth Of Pennsylvania.
In the same papers which published this
poor mans story appeared statement of
the principles just adopted by new politi-
cal and social organization at Rutland,
known as the Vermont Citizens Alliance,
having been formed through seces-
sion from tho National Citizens Alliance.
The declaration Of this body contains an in
teresting passage in reference to tho privi-
leses Of foreigners In this country. I'VE
demand" says tho Vermont Citizens' ALI
ancc. the passage OF laws prohibiting tho
alien ownership Of land, and that Congress
take early steps to devise some plan to OBJ
tain all lands now owned by aliens and for.
eign syndicates."
There is Just ono way In which Congress
can obtain tho lands to which foreigners
have acquired legal title in tho United
States; and that Is by paying for them.
Under tho Federal Constitution. neither
the national Government nor any State
Government can deprive . person Of his
property without due process Of law; and
due process Of law does hot include confis-
cation. In order to get back any lands now
lawfully owned by others, tho people must
pay for them out Of tho public treasury.
Amid the present tendency to exclude for
eign competition Of every sort, lot US not
forget the principles OF natural justice. Let
us be fair to foreigners.
