the people are more able to understand the benefits of a constitution, and 1 was heartily glad to restore 1t, notwithstand- ing influential advice to the contrary. My will is definite and unalterable, and henceforth the constitution will regulate the affairs of the nation. The cabinet which Kiamil Pasha has formed will full fill our decisions.
 T regret to be compelled to announce to the representatives of the nation that the Prince of Bulgaria and the governor general of Eastern Rumelia have deviat- ed from the path of loyalty and pro- claimed the independence of those pro- vinees. l also regret to announce that Austria-Hungary has made the illegal move of proclaiming the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which tempo rarily are occupied by her contrary to in- ternational good faith and treaty stipula- tions. My ministers are occupying them selves with these grave questions and hope they will receive the assistance of parliament.
 Our relations with all the powers are excellent and 1 anticipate that with the good offices of the great friendly nations, all these questions will be peaceably and fayorably settled.
 Financial Situation.
 "The budget of the empire will be pre- sented to you, the financial situation be- ing the chief matter for your considera- tion. Public instructions and the strengthening of the army and navy will also occupy the most serious attention Of my government. Three other important questions will be presented to you.
 T am hopeful that your labors will prove fruitful of good for the empire and the people, and with this hope, 1 hereby proclaim the formal opening of the new parliament.
 'I am happy to see assembled here the representatives of the people and hear tily salute them, it being my will that the constitution be faithfully observed and jealously guarded. I pray that God will bless your labors and grant divine assistance"
 The Sultan's address was greeted with outburst of gerat applause Follow ing this speech, Maxi Bul Eshraft, rep resentative of the descendants of the prophet, offered a prayer invoking the Iord's blessing upon the constitution and parliament and beseeching that He grant long life to the Sultan and his dynasty and bestow His divine guidance upon the Ottoman nation so that the nation will endure forever When the prayer was ended, his majesty leaned forward and spoke as follows:
 T am very glad to see around me our parliament which 1 open today Let the representatives of the people pray the AL mighty for the continuance of fruit fitness of the labors of the chamber. May God bless your efforts.'
 The Sultan, after resting while in an adjoining room, left the chamber and returned by the same route along which he came. As before he was enthusiastic ally cheered by enormous crowds.

Faith Of The Fathers.

The Philadelphia, Record, ar
old line Democratic paper that
opposed Bryan in scotland in
1900, pledges him it's support
this year in the following edi-
torial:
Under a deep sense of the
responsibility therein involved,
the Record has determined to
support the candidates of the
Democratic party. There is a
drift in both parties away from
safe constitutional lmoorings.
But on immediate and vital issues
that divide the political opinion
of the Nation the Democratic
party is most firmly rooted in
the faith of the fathers.
"For 80 years the Record, day
in and day out, has striven for
tariff reform. 1t will fight on
under the lead of Mr.. Bryan,
who believes the protective
principles not only unjust, but
unconstitutional. twill fight
on for unfettered ln'trade and
equal rights and, under what
ever leadship the war is waged,
in the belief that the good of the
masses is deeply involved in the
result.
