thereof without previous consulta-
ton with the other powers. and in
this case especially with Turkey.
Sir Edward Grey, the foreign Sec
rotary, in an address today before
his constituents at Wooler. Northum-
berland. with reference to the near
east. repeated the terms Of the British
note. He hoped and believed that
nothing had happened thus far that
would lead to a breach Of the peace.
If it became the practice Of any pow
er, at will, abruptly to violate treaties.
he declared, public confidence would
be undermined. There was q risk,
however, that what had already &C.
CURED, would lead to further ques-
tions which would entail complica-
tons.
"The feeling is growing in Europe"
said the foreign secretary. that ar
maments should be diminished, but
we cannot expect to see expenditures
on ornaments decrease II people live
under the apprehension that treaties
can be suddenly altered without the
consent of all the powers who are
parties to them. In the present
case 1t would be very desirable to
lose no time in assuring Turkey that
in revision Of the Berlin treaty, the
interests and status of Turkey will
receive full consideration.
I'VE honestly desire to see things
SO fairly guided that the result of
any changes may not be to discour-
age, but to give support to the new
government in Turkey and we shall
use our influence to that end. 1t is
desirable to bear in mind that any
sighting of the new regime in Tur-
key may give military direction to a
move that is now peaceful. 1t might
imperil all reforms in Turkey and
might plunge Macedonia and Armenia
back into that deplorable state which
they were in a short time ago.
"The material and practical changes
which have been made in the past
few days are not so great. Bulgaria
has declared her independence, but
she had autonomy before, and the diff
ference between autonomy and indie
pendence is not great from a practi-
cal point of view."

DOUBLE VOTE OFFER CLOSED
Subscriptions Pound in BY the Scores
Was a Lively Fight

Subscriptions Pound in BY the Scores
Was Lively Fight
The double vote offer closed last
night and it looked like every body
in the state was going to be added to
the subscription list of The Times.
They started early and continued
voting all day. Old men. young men.
ladies, children, everybody seemed
anxious to cast Times ballot for
the young lady Of their choice, and
the contest department was kept busy
receiving subscriptions. answering
inquiries, and responding to the de-
mands and needs of the young ladies
who are working to secure the beau
tiful prizes offered by the Evening
Times.
AS the race nears the home stretch
everybody is becoming interested.
Business men, professional men,
county officials. society ladies, school
children, all classes and ages are en-
gagged in clipping coupons and secur-
ing subscriptions, for their favorites.
But the end is not yet. and although
the regular schedule of votes has been
resumed, every contestant has a
chance to win up until the last min
ute. A race is never lost until the
goal is reached, and there are still
hundreds of subscriptions to be had
for the asking.
The published report will show what
some OF the contestants have done
What it will not show is the number
of votes some of the contestants are
holding back. Take 1t as tip that
there will be some surprises before
/ the final count, and nobody knows
who will win.

So long has 1t been since there has
been fire in East Grand Forks. that
Chief Burke of the fire department
had a drill at $3.50 o'clock this after
noon in order to brush up and keep
from getting stale and the whole af-
fair was SO we'll carried out that the
people of the city need have little fear
but what the fire fighters are COM
petent to their duty under the guild
ance Of such a director as Chief
Burke.
A shack was erected for the pur-
pose on the corner Of Third street
and Kittson avenue and q good blaze
was rkindled therein. The alarm was
sounded and Tom and Jerry and the
other two beasts rushed to the wa
CONS as though they could never for
get how 1t was done in days gone by.
The boys soon had the stream playing
on the blaze and the fire which had an
excellent start before the alarm was
sounded was extinguishei before one
could say "Jack Robinson"
The East Grand Forks fire depart
ment are indeed deserving of praise
for their attention to duty and now
have things systematized in such a
manner as to avert the danger of
former years of having valuable prop
