EMPEROR FERDINAND
Opens Bulgarian Parliament in a Calm
and Pacific Speech.

Sofia, oct 2S.-The fourth national
Bulgian Assembly was convened for
its autumn session this afternoon. The
speech from the throne was read by
Emperor Ferdinand and was eminent
ly pacific in character. He defended
the recent course of his government
A typical passage of the message is
as follows: -.-., ~ Nt,
"Peate ana prosperity are inscribed
on the banner which Ts'as unfurled at
TirnoyO Oct S, and count upon my
valiant and progressive people to as
SiSt .nc',in the defGnne of. our righteous
causeG of securing peace and spreading
the uwOrit of civilization in the Bal
kans .a
Continuing the Emperor promised
to reimburse all just claims against
his government. He MADE no refer
cnce to Turkey, but he mentioned his
recent reception by Emperor Francis
Joseph as proof of the benevolent at
titude of Austria Hungary.
He closed in expressing the hope
that Russia would not desert this new
Slavish empire, which was her own
off spring.
He defended the recent course OF
his government.
His Majesty drove from the palace
to the Parliament and this was made
| the occasion of a brilliant military
display. The Bulgarans, who appar-
entity are very fond of watching the
| army, We're masscd in great crowds
| along the route which was Tired with
special troops from the garrison. with
| regimental flags, that for the most
part were new as few the Buigarians
regiments have participated in any
| fighting
| A salute Of II guns was fired as tho
ace ground in the center Of the town.
| The Emperor's carriage moved quick
| ly through the streets, and everywhere
| His Majesty was greeted with en-
| thusiastic cheers which were. redoubled
| when Ferdinand reached the build
ings The cabinet awaited His Majes-
ty and led the way into the Chamber
taking their places around the foot Of
the throne. The King seated himself
and read his speech. He then arose
and uncovered and called for cheers
for "The Bulgarian CZardom and peo-
pie" to which those gathered within
the building, heartily responded
The Bulgarian National Assembly is
one of the most Democratic Legisla-
lures in Europe. 1t is composed of a
single chamber and it's members are
elected directly by the people.
