NOSLENS CLING
To ADRIANOPLE
ConCede All But BeIeaguered
City and Aegean Islands.
Peace in Sight.

LONDON. Jan. 2.-Although hopes of
peace in the Balkans We're higher to-
day than at any previous time since the
negotiations began, in consequence of
the latest proposals of the Ottoman
delegates, the pathway to a satisfac-
tory treaty is by no means clear.
Rechid Pasha. who has assumed lead
ership Of the Ottoman delegation de-
clared today that Turkey would give up
neither Adrianople nor the Aegean is
lands without satisfactory returns.
we believe our course so far has
been JUSTIFIED in the eyes of the world"
said Rechid Pasha. Turkey can not
relinquish Adrianople and the Aegean
islands upon the basis of the terms as
they now stand In our new counter
proposals we made concessions which
in our minds should prove acceptable
to the allies"
Powers Refuse to Intervene.
The declaration of Rechid Pasha fol-
lowed telegra phed report from the
Turkish capital that the powers had
refused to intervene, on Turkeys re-
quest, unless the, Ottoman government
consents to give up Adrianople and the
Aegean islands.
From today's angle it looked az
though the success OF the negotiations
now hangs upon Adrianople ana the
Aegean islands. Turkeys present atti-
tude upon the disposition of Adriano-
pie and the Aegean islands is this:
First-The porte will treat direct with
Bulgaria as to the status of Adrianople.
Second-The porte is willing to al
low both questions to go into the am
bassadorial high court for settlement.
No Meeting Today.
Although there was no formal ses-
sion today of the plenipotentiaries in st.
James palace, the Balkan envoys met
among themselves and the Turks also
held meeting. II is understood that
G. Movakoyttch. of the Servian delega-
ton, made an impassioned appeal to
his colleagues IN behalf of Servian rep
resentation in the conference
1t was expected that there would be
an informal meeting of the ambassa-
dor in the foreign office this afternoon
for discussion of the status of Scutari
which Is claimed by the Montenegrius.
Because of the strategic Importance of
that city, commercially, its disposition
Is of high interest to Europe.

SIDELIGATS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
BY JAMES B. NEVIN.

The grand young junior county Of
Georgia-Wheeler-is trying mighty
hard to get its new hat on straight, but
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-01-02

Shall the buzzard, long protected by
the strong arm OF the law in Georgia
because it has been rated the greatest
scavenger ever. be outlaWed and its in
discriminate slaughter permitted here
after Oh the theory that it is a men
ace and not benefit to society?
The buzzard surely will be given
over to the hunters if the word of a
number of eminent Georgia physicians
weighs anything in particular with the
next legislature.
The fly, once hailed as the scaVenger
par excellence. long ago was unmasked,
as it were, and given over to the swat
ters and Differs. The fly came to be
recognized not as a benefactor. but as
an enemy.
For years we have been 50 busy eX-
terminating the flies that next spring
there likely viii be several flies less
than there were last spring-not so
many less that you viii be able to no.
tice it as a physical fact, perhaps, but a
gay and festive few less. anyway.
The buzzard, so many medical sharps
nowadays hold, is spreader OF disease
among animals-indeed, one physician
goes so far as to say that there would
be no hog cholera were there no buzz
yards at large around and about this
country. And as cholera curtails the
annual hog crop more surely than all
other evil cases put together. anything
that lessons the cholera peril is more
than ordinarily well worth while.
To be sure. even if the protection Of
the law is removed from buzzards, there
will be no particularly fine sport in
shooting them-for in the matter OF
buzzards, as in the matter Of polecats,

Well
Still if Strengthening buzzards win put
a crimp in the spread of hog cholera,
many Georgians will march forth glad
ly to the slaughter, of course,
1T is true" said well known Geor-
gia legislator in Atlanta today. that
the state capitol should have an annex,
in order that the departments may be
taken care of amply, and ] favor, more
over, the suggestion of a distinct and
separate annex devoted to the courts Of
review and the library.
above all things, l think the state
should take better care of it's magnifi-
cent library.
Georgia has one of the very finest
Libraries in the entire nation. Not two
per cent of the people perhaps, realize
just what a splendid library it Is. If
it were destroyed. 1t never could be re-
placed-and if it were possible to re-
place it, the expense Of the replacing
would astonish the taxpayers out of
their boots.
Il have occasion TO use the library
frequently The librarian always is so
courteous, and the library itself is so
nearly complete that it is a genuine
pleasure to go there. And it may be
therefore, that my interest is unusual
anyway. I look upon it as one OF the
states biggest and best assets
what l started out 10 say. however
is this Georgia should lose no further
time placing that library in fireproof
building If an annex for the depart
ment of justice is erected, it should. by
all means. have a fireproof section. TO
be devoted exclusively to the library.
1T is entirely possible as the ma tier
stands now, that we shall awake some
fine morning and find our great library
gone-gone because of a fire against
which it now is but feebly protected"
Despite authoritative Hsser-
tons to the contrary, there is well
defined rumor going the rounds-a ru-
NOR that has interested some states
men of south Georgia profoundly
the effect that Senator Hoke Smith is
being very seriously considered for a
cabinet place under President Wilson.
and that there is possibility of mis-
accepting.
The senator never has said that he
would not, in any circumstances, accept
place in the cabinet. He has said that
he prefers to remain in the senate-but
he has not said that he might not be
brought to prefer the cabinet.
Mr.. Smith, as secretary OF the inte-
rior under President Cleveland left a
record OF efficiency that yet is talked
about in Washington. 1t is realized
that he would fit very snugly into that
berth again-although the suggestions
that he will 60 into the cabinet as an
attorney general. if at all.
1t is known that. of all cabinet
places. the attorney generalship ap-
peals more to Mr. Smith. If he should
be rendered that place and accept. he
would take hold of the department OF
justice in a way that likely would cause
the rafting of a good many dry bone
throughout the nation.
And the Smith cabinet rumor per
sists! 1t viii not down, There may
be nothing in it. Of course, and yet a.
good many people think it may come
true!

The Second Day at Gettysburg.

II is hard to write about the second days battle
at Gettysburg without reviving two vOuminous
cOntroverses-the Sickles one on the Federal side
and the Longstreet one on the Confederate. IT
would not be profitable to go far into either Long
street may have been little slow in launching
his attack on the Federal left wing Yet there IL
little to show that he had received any order 10
attack in the forenoon or that he was dilatory in
the afternoon When the assault came 1t far
more crushing and far better sustained than was
Pckett's charge on the day following for which
Lee was solely responsible
Sickess forward movement from the main Fed
eral line gave Longstreet great opportunity. The
advanced position taken by the Sd Corps had some
advantages, but IL also had obvious disadvantages,
especially that of putting the corps out of touch
with the rest of the army and cutting 1t off from
easy support. Meade was taken aback by the fierce
Confederate attack Sickles's exposed salient.
But no commander in chief ever labored harder and
more inteigently than he did TO retrieve a difficult
situation. All authorities agree that troops
could have been handled better than Meade handled
his after the second days fight
For the first time in It's history the Army Of the
Potomac was able to make its strength and yaOr
tell 10 the utmost After three hours Of desperate
hand-tO-hand fighting against Longstreet 1t knew at
last that the hobgobn of inefficient leadership
which had pursued it from the beginning had been
laid. That demonstration was the overshadowing
feature of the bloody second day

The New Balkan War.

The formal action Of Greece makes a new war
in the Balkans reality, though how far 1t will ex-
tsad is vet matter of anxious speculation. Servia,
Greece and Montenegro would be pretty evenly bal
auced against Bulgaria. II Rumania were to join
them Bulgaria would be almost hopeessly outnum-
bered Then the question would arise whether
Austria-Hungary would aid the country with which
for years she has had close secret understanding.
Each side blames the other. The fundamental
facts are these: The antebellum treaty was made
in the expectation that Albania would be parti-
toned among Montenegro, Servia and Greece; on
which account Bulgaria would take the major part
of Macedonia. But Austria Hungary interviewed
and had Albania made separate state under her
protection Therefore Servia and Greece demanded
compensation in larger shares Of Macedonia. But
Bulgaria insisted that the treaty must stand,
though in circumstances very different from those
which were expected when 1t was made.
The question of interest now is, Did Bulgaria
know, when the treaty Of alliance was made, that
Austria Hungary would rob Servia, Greece and
Montenegro by having Albania reserved to become
presently a new Bosnia?

The Spells Serpent Creeping In.

The best friends of the administration must WISH
that the Postmaster General had thought little
longer before he sent his notice to the postmaster
of San Francisco that his resignation was desired
This postmaster has served under four admlnistra'
lions. his record is unimpeached and his present
term of Office does not end until June. 1916. When
Mr. Burleson became Postmaster General he issued
a statement to the effect that postmasters gener-
ally would be allowed to serve out their four-year
terms. in accordance with the sound precedent
observed after preceding shifts of power in national
affairs from one party to another.
WHY should that precedent be disregarded mere
ly in order to get a Republican out and Demo
Graf in ahead of the schedule time? Hasn't the
administration got into trouble enough in Cali
fornia through the inconsiderate attempt OF two
Cabinet officers to tie up litigation in the federal
courts there for the personal convenience of an
other newly appointed federal offceholder?
President Wilson has been a stanch friend or the
merit system in appointments All his past assoc1a-
tions have aligned him against the spells system
He still talks about freeing administration from the
vicious grip of the spokesman. Yet Mr.. Burleson S
effort to force out Postmaster Fish and some OF the
purely political appointments which Mr.. Bryan Is
making in parts Of the foreign service when
should be kept out of politics seem to show that
the Presidents high ideals Lave not sufficiently
IMPRESSED those who are exercising authority in
his household Here is an 'insidlous" revival OF
craftsmanship on which he should set his heel

Rochefort, Citizen-Marquis.

The Marquis Victor Henri de Rochefort-Lucay
long ago belonged to history, His unlucky partci-

the logical ending of his public career. All since
was anti-cnmX. But for generation he was one
of the most picturesque and enigmatical and by
no means least forceful figures in France
nobleman of the old regime by birth and taste,
he was In profession and practice the most demo
cratic of citizens. fre-eatng duellist he was one
of the most tender.hearted and sympathetic of men,
A lion or perhaps rather a tiger, with his pen in
the tribune he roared gently as sucking dove
To the public political gladiator to his friends he
was an art cOnnOisseur and a philanthropist
lie played the part Of agitator Supremacy well,
and did France much good service as we'll as some
harm But that was his full political measure.
Constructive craftsmanship was to him an unknown
art 1t was the knowledge of that fact that embit-
tered his life But his caustic criticisms were some
times worth much other mems building

SPINNING WHEELS AND VOTES
Also Ribbons and Metaphors Bedeck
the Suffrage Problem.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: One would think that an accom-
plIshed anti" like Mrs. Hazard (who
addressed herself TO The Tribune yester-
day. for the furtherance Of her cause
could and would find better figure OF
speech 10 clinch her argument than the
following:
You cannot make a spinning wheel
mUre valuable as a machine by decorating
IL with ribbons. and you cannot make
women more valuable industrially by Civ
ing them the vote"
one is forcibly reminded OF the old
song in Babes in Toyland." which might
mirthfully expound such a problem as
Mrs Hazard unconsciously suggests. viz. !:
II spinning wheels and ribbons equal
women and votes. how many women and
ribbons could win a Derby? This, OF
course. is a problem 10 conjure with. Suf-
frage, too. is a problem. But why
in the peaceful solution of so weighty a
question. should Mrs. Hazard liken votes
TO ribbons? Why. II the ants are so
seriously fighting. should they engage in
a warfare against ribbons?
