Gives Official Attitude of the
Powers In Regard to the
Reform Scheme
NO CHANGE IN THEIR VIEWS
Neither Turkey Nor Bulgaria Can Ex-
peet Support From Any Quarter in
the Event of Open or Secret Re-
sistance to Plans of the Powers =
Contents of Note.

ST. Petersburg. Sept. 24.-The Rus
stan government has issued an official
note reiterating that the attitude OF the
powers in regard to the Austro-
Russian reform scheme for Macedonia
is unchanged and that consequently
neither Turkey nor Bulgaria can expect
support from any quarter in the event
of open or secret resistance to this
scheme.
The government. after pointing out
that suggested reforms were at the
outset amended with good results,
continues:
These, however. did not satisfy the
Macedonian committees which have
sprung up in the Slav states. The
probability which had become appar-
ent that the Christian population would
calm down under the influence of re-
forms deprived these committees of adj
favorable ground for the realization OF
their revolutionary plans. While pro-
Calming their object wa protection of
their co-religlonists against Turkish
seek to attain their selfish aim of modi-
flying the administrative system in the
province SO as to convert 1t into Il Bull
garian Macedonia, to the detriment of
the rights and privileges of other
Christian peoples, whose interests are
equally dear to orthodox Russia. AS
the leaders found no support among
the Bulgarian element in Macesdo-
mia, they eXerted themselves to raise a
general insurrection by cruel outrages
and terrorism in order to hinder the
OF projected reforms. I'm
happily. in spite of the precautions of
the Sofia government, the Macedonian
agitation spread considerably in Bui-
garia itself. finding support among
those who mistakenly reckoned that
the outbreak thus caused would compel
Russia to alter her program and pro-
claim herself the champion of the un-
realzable plans OF the leaders of the
revolution.
This fatal conception, against which
Russia gave incessant warnings, has
brought upon the Christians In Turk
isl vilayets grievous oppression, which
Will only end when the incursion Of In
surgents from Bulgaria and revolution
ary activity OF the committee cease.
Not until then can immediate applica-
ton of reforms needed by the popula
ton and by which they will be pro-
tected from Turkish atrocities be in
sisted upon, the most energetic en-
deavors having failed to bride the fa-
naticism OF the Mussulmans.

Two children We're born to them and
they lived happily together for three
years. During that time Taylor was
stationed at Colts, Nd, and Boothwyn

the misinformation which prevails in
regard to some legal matters in the
state. 1t was stated that the Bulletin

examined except by naming them. Ii
Editor Brant had examined the acts
Of the general assembly he would nave
discovered that the state Of Iowa does
not provide for giving certificates to
osteopaths as physi6 - and they are
not so classed nor q ally recognized
as such. Osteopath certificates on

The reference to osteopaths as some
thing entirely different from the phys
icians is something sought by the os-
teopaths themselves, and the certi-
ficates they get are not the same as
the certificates to doctors. At the same
time there is movement on foot here
to compel the governor 10 appoint an

The effort is to be made to have an
osteopath named in his place. He is
of the homeopathic school. 1t is now
claimed there are more osteopaths' in
the state than either homeopaths or
allopaths.
