The Royal Rosarians, Mission.

The invasion of the winter tourist
centers, Sacramento, San Francisco,
Oakland, San Jose, Los Angeles, San
Diego, Pasadena, etc, by the Royal
Rosarians of Portland was a great
success. The actions were sharp and
decisive, the sieges always ended in
unconditional surrender to the gay
warriors in spotless white, bearing
the rose, the emblem of their native
city, the City of Roses"
The Royal Rosarians, organized to
assist the good work of the Portland
Rose Festival Association, has per-
formed a great service to Portland
to Oregon and to the Pacific north
west.
About 100 business men and their
wives left Portland December % by
special train, via the Southern Pa
cific, over the beautiful Shasta Route
and THE Road of Thousand Won
ders." All the principal cities OF
California were visited The Cali
fornia tourist season is now at it's
height. Thousands upon thousands
of tourists, some wealthy, others
with only moderate means, from all
corners of the United States, Can
ada and foreign countries, are now
wintering in delightful, sunny Calf
fornia.
1t is estimated that in the parade
at the Floral Festival at Pasadena
alone the Rosarians were reviewed
by more than 100000 people, most
of them tourists.
The Rosarians were the subject of
hundreds of kodak snapshots, as well
as of the moving picture operators,
seeking material for the picture
shows on all the great circuits.
The advertising value of the visit
of the Rosarians to California can
not be estimated OF the people who
saw them, met the members, or re-
ceived a personal or printed invita-
tion to visit Portland and the Pacific
northwest next Summer, many will
come this way. We hold that, if the
people come to Oregon, they are sure
to be fascinated with our beautiful
country and many will remain per-
manently.
The Royal Rosarians are doing a
splendid work in the development
of Oregon, by inviting people to Ore
gon. Let us do likewise.

step in the direction OF peace.
A Sofa dispatch gives reports from

are sick, without medical aid or the
means OF obtaining warmth
Turkish and Bulgarian delegates

The Turks demanded that they be al.
lowed to retain their arms, the Bull.
garians refused to grant this.
Some difficulties are being met
with at the ambassadorial conference
in London, and the question of the
frontiers of Albania has been aban-
doned for the moment, as it has been
found impossible to reconcile the de-
sires of Austria for an extended AL
bania and accept the suggestions of
Russia for narrowing the boundaries
Of the new state.

detailed memorandum presented by

BURNING COWS HIS PASSION
Indiana Firebug Declares to Police

Evansville, Ind.-The mystery
surrounding string of inceu-
diary fires was cleared up when Wal

the police that he had burned the
dairy barns Of four milk companies
here.
Suspicion was diverted from Bru-
ner for a long time because he ap-
pcared to be simple minded and harm
less, but an investigation by Police
man Zumstoin showed that every
where Bruner worked there was a
blaze, which came at night, and de-
stroyed barns and animals.
Questioned for his motive in firing
The structures Bruner said he wanted
to hear the COWS below in fright
when they were in the blazing barns.
THAT was music" he said to the
chief.

TURKS HALT PEACE PLAN
EFFORTS TO KEEP ADRIANoPLE
PREVENTS END OF WAR. -
Roumania Menaees Bulgaria With In
vssion Unless Frontier is
Rectifed

London, Eng.--The pendulum OF
peace in the Balkans swings between
the fall of Adrianople and action by
the powers of Europe. Advice, sug-
gestions, good offices, pressure and
friendly oflers-all that diplomatic
Technology has been able to invent
have been attempted by the powers
to bring the conflicting parties to
terms over Adrianople, but the re-
luctance of Turkey TO cede the holy
city" is only surpassed by the deter
mination of the allies to win their
point to have it included in the terri
tory OF Bulgaria.
Several so-called intermediate
courses for solving the problem, by
neither entirely separating Adriano-
pie from Turkey nor entirely giving
it to Bulgaria, have been refused by
both sides. AS an indication of the
stand the allies have taken. one of the
Bulgarian delegates said; Adrian
ople is the Alsace-Lorraine of our
war"
Turkeys hopes that she may be
able to save Adrianople undoubtedly
have been revived by the threatening
attitude of Roumania. In this Rou-
mania is believed to be backed by
Austria, as otherwise she would not
urge her claim so theoretically
against Bulgaria in contrast with her
pacific position of fortnight ago.
The powers are awaiting the result
of representations to be made to the
Constantinople government by their
ambassadors in the Ottoman capital.
Their note probably will be delivered
Monday to the Porte.
