ysding that no obstacles should be
put in the way Of organizing the
different Christian communions of
the Turkish Empire seems to be the
shadowy preteuce on which the Boil
garian principally, which is nomi-
nally under the suzerainty OF Turkey,
now comes toward
The fact seems to be that the i'm
broglio of Turkey with Greece gives
Bulgaria a chauce of which she is
eager to avail herself The other
Balkan States may easily cone to the
similar conclusion. There is no one
OF them which does not nurse griev
auces against the political conditions
prescribed by the Berlin treaty.
which defined their positions. In the
case of Bulgaria. that people we've as
much the sport Of international sci
fishness as Greece has more recently
been BY the treaty of Sautefano,
which was so quickly upset, Great
Bulgaria was created, with seaport
at salonica, a scheme which filled
the Bulgars with passionate enthusi
asm. Tue substitute in the Berlin
treaty was an arrangement by which
the proposed political plan was abro
gated. The great nationality was
cut in two, onehalf leJt in direct sub.
lection to the Turk, the other al
lowed to exist as an autonomy under
Turkish suzerainty. This has rank
ed bitterly ever since IN the hearts of
the Bulgarian people, aud it is 10y no
means surprising that they take ad
vantage of the present situation.
That the nominal demand made is
merely cover for a large purpose
seems to be in reason. The impe
rious manner with which the Brlga
rians have presented an ultimatum
carry ing the threat of instant war
leaves no other conclusion.
With this p aspect looming befo:
her, Turkey will scarcely venture to
send the reinfOrcements called for
by the situation in Thessaly. She
could not venture to strip herself of
a powerful defence against complied
tons SO dangerous. A Bulgarian
army pouring into Northern Mace
dchia and co operating with the
Greek would completely cut her
communications, aud the Turkish ar
my in Greece would be paralyzed.
At war in the Balkans, the effect of
Turkey would plainly be, from II
military point of view, that she
would be compelled to fall back
from any further Invasion of Greece
and assume a strict defensive In Ma
cedonia. If the Bulgarian threat is
more than pure bluff, it may we'll be
the deus ex macbina to compel
prompt Intervention of the Greek
Powers. 1t is we'll understood that
the whole philosophy which underlay
the absurd European policy Of the
last three months is the desire to re
tain present political divisions in
tact. With war raging in the Balk
ans, the contOgiOn of which would
quickly spread through all the prin
CAPABILITIES, that diplomatic dream
would speedily be made hopeless.
l addition to this, the confederate
powers themselves could scarcely
hope to keep them selves aloof from
mutual embodiment. The precipi
tation of this new factor in the Eas
tern war problem would be of the
most far reaching consequences. All
those who sympathize with gallant
Greece in her struggle will welcome
such a change in the situation, if it
comes about-N. Y. journal.

ing State election if the silver
men insist upon pushing through
the convention platform reiter-
ating and endorsing the silver
plank adopted at Chicago last
year. Several informal references
have been held among the leaders
OF this wing Of the paIt.~, aud it is
their purpose to make fight
against the endorsement in spe-
citic terms of the currency plank
of the Chicago platform. They
are anxious to see the breach i'm

dOrsement of Democratic princi-

This is the same old story that
has been sent out from Richmond
for the past month. No reasons
can be assigned for sending ont
these statements unless il be that
the minority wing of the Demo
cratic party are only playing a
game of bluff. The Democratic
party in Virginia is DESTROYS of
having harmony with in the ranks
OF the party, but such statements
as the one above are not calculat-
ed TO bring about the desired re-
suit. The Democrats won last
year without the and of the gold

Republicans were scattering bood-
lie in all parts of the State, and it
Is not supposed that the silver
Democrats, who ave in the MAORI

principles simply to satisfy those
who felt called upon last year to
vote for Mckinley and the Repub

pie had charge of the party, or if
Mr.. Cleveland had been the nomi-
nee last year, these very same
people would now be favoring the
endorsement of the Chicago plat
form.
It's all we'll enough for breth-
