COUNCIL VOTE FAVORBLE
Finally Takes Action On Note Handed
to Porte On January 17-
Berlin Skepticai.

COnStantlnOple, Jan. 2S.-The grand
council of the Ottoman empire has
voted in favor of accepting the propo.
sals put forward by the European now.
ers for the purpose Of bringing about
the conclusion of peace.
The Notes important.
The note handel to the porte Jan.
Il by the European ambassadors ct
Constantinople called the Ottoman
governments attention ito the grave
responsibility it would assume II, by
resistance to their counsels, it should
prevent the establishment of peace.
1t would have only itself to blame if
The prolongation of the war had as a
consequence to put in question the
tate of the capital and perhaps to ex-
lend hostilities to the Asiatic provinces
Of the empire"
The document continued that Gin
that case the Turkish government
could not count on the success of the
efforts of the powers to preserve it
from the dangers against which they
already had warned it and which they
once more warned it to avoid.
Would Need Support.
The powers then called the atten.
ton of the Ottoman. government to the
TACT that after the conclusion of peace
1t would have need of the moral and
material support of the powers to re-
pair the evils Of the war, to CONSOLE
late its position at Constantinople and
10 develop it's vast Asiatic territories
The note pointed out that the Turk.
sh government would count on the
efficacy of the benevolent support of
the powers only SO long as it deferred
to their counsel. inspired by the gen.
eral interests of Europe and Turkey.
The powers then advised Turkey to
consent to the cession of Adrianople
and to leave to them the fate of the
Egean islands.
Report Heard In Paris.
Paris.-It was rumored that the
porte had decided to cede Adrianople
% the allies, following the advice of the
powers note, according to dispatches
received here today from CONSTANT
nople. 1t was said that the national as.
sembly urged the steY and the minis.
Try acquiesced. There was no verifica.
ton in diplomatic circles.
Many servians Imprisoned. pssA
London.-The prisons of the Hun.
garian city of Szogedin are crowded
with Servian agitators and the law
courts there are overwhelmed with
work, according to dispatch received
here today. Trial by jury has been
suspended by the government in sew
eral places in Hungary owing to the
fact that the majority of the jurors
are Servians and invariably acquit
their fellow countrymen.
Report Is Not Credited.
Berlin.-The reported willingness of
Turkey to give up the fortress of
Adrianople and to make peace on that
basis is received here with skepticism.
The belief prevails that Turkeys re-
oily to the note of the powers will show
only an inclination to meet the wishes
Of Europe SO as to pave the way for
further negotiations. The Turkish en-
bassy here also regards as improbable
the report that Turkey is willing to
cede Adrianople.

Many possiblities-some of them unpeasant-rsside
this tariff bill passed CALAMITY by Mr. Wilson of Princeton
and by Democrats of large confidence small experience
The certain result of lower tariff is this: MORE
AMERICAN MONEY WILL co ABROAD AND MORE WORK
FOR AMERICANS WILL BE DONE ABROAD
Not the ingenious mind of Professor Wilson get
away from that fact,
Foss of Massachusetts, elected as Democrat has gone
back to the Republican party. That is NOTHING.
He has moved his great factory the States to
Canada. THAT IS SOMETHING
The work that American citizens did in the United
States for Foss will be done by Canadians Canada They
will get the work and the wagesand the United
will pay the bills
Think that oUer!
Under this tariff manufacturers MAY be forced to sell
goods cheaper And they MAY do this without actually
ing money. Let us hope
If they lose they will stop manufacturing or like Foss send
their factories country where labor cheaper money
be borrowed cheapy where lower-and
they II bring the goods to sell here.
Hundreds of millions of American money USED to stay
here will out of the country under the tariff may
feel the need of that later.
Merchants will be able to sell things more cheaply
They will from abroad and be the product labor that
costs less of other cheaper foreign conditions be
very nice-Cheap shopping a deght-IF YOU HAVE THE
MONEY WITH WHICH TO SHOP.
But for all work done abroad some one must lose his lob
here And losing your job is NOT delightful
And may office little some individual cap
able of checking the stealing trusts without driving work and
money out of this country. Let's hope so.
Hitting workngmen the head with a club is surely not
the ONLY possible method of dscouraging the trusts
They say tariff trade will discourage trusts
Possibly that is so.
If you take the tariff off STEEL wool etc. you may discour
age the steel and wool trusts and so on
But when you do that, what happens?
Those discouraged trusts as first step
shut down their plants and discharge men.
Might it not have been possible discourage trust thevery
WITHOUT sending American work abroad-and sending
American dollars with it pay foreigners for the work?

TT is greatly to the credit of
the proprietors of the Column
bia Theater, San Francisco, that
they ventured to offer to the thea
ter-going public the Mission Play"
This pageant-play is sweet and
pure and charming-and deeply
religious. 1t is greatly to the cred
it of the theater-going public of
San Francisco that on the opening
night a crowded house received the
play with unanimous approval aud
fine enthusiasm.
The daring which produced the
piece, the crowded house, the pro
found enjoyment of it in all its
parts, are significant. These things
are immensely encouraging. They
justify our belief in the essential
rightness of our common human
nature. They stimulate every
movement directed toward the
elevation of taste and the improve
ment of character. They lend fire
and wings to our conviction that
the great majority of men and
women at the present time would
rather have the good than the bad,
and rather do the right than the
wrong-the choice put squarely
before them. One remembers with
more than a thrill of satisfaction
that the best plays draw the big
gest crowds. Forbes-Robertson in
THE Passing of the Third Floor
Back" and Maude Adams in Chan
tecler," and a dozen other good and
great performances during the last
year or two, and the vast crowds
which they have commanded dem
onstrate that there is no need for
theater managers to wallow in I'M
pleasantness. They can make
money while they are making men
and women happier and better
II is the same all over America.
III the big cities and in smaller
places experience has shown that
the exploitation of female immod-
esty is not essential to a dramatic
success, One feels a deeper joy
in living as one sees that the pest
things pay best.

The Mission Play" tells the
story of the planting OF the mis-
sions to the Indians of California
$50 years ago. The heroic figure
Of Father Junipero Sierra lives
again. He has been some time en-
California soil when the play
opens, but with simple art We are
made to understand that he was
in his Old-World home. Professor
in famous university, with the in
stincts of a scholar, a doctor OF
divinity, a powerful and eloquent
preacher. the missionary spirit
burned hot in his soul. A career
of dignity, honor and triumph in
vited But hardship allured. He
turned from the ambitions and
prizes which Europe held for him
TO a strange and solitary land by
the far Pacific, and to savage
tribes believed to he hostile. SUI
perstitious and cruel. What glo-
ries upon gIories waited for the
man who should brave their saw
agery, love them In their unloveH
ness, and win them for Mother
Church!
The record of his conservation

Mr.. Osbourne's conception Of the
great padre is perfect. The high
est praise must be accorded to his
work. 1t could not be better done.
From San Diego in the south to
San Francisco in the north, over
600 miles Of mountain and desert
inhabited only by red men, Juni-
pero and his colleagues made their
way. Along Fl Canine Real they
planted their missions. First Of
the idealists of the Golden State,
we rejoice to do him honor. Be
meath the crosses which he planted
Catholic and Protestant unite to
keep his memory green.
TT might be thought that a ques-
L tion would arise in the minds
of devout Christian people, and
more especially, perhaps, in the
minds of members of the Catholic
Church, as to the propriety Of
bringing upon the stage the priest,
the cross, the rite of baptism and
the passionate prayers of hero
souls. l can only say that it was
all so beautiful, and so real. and it
was all done in such exquisite
taste, that | do not believe there
was a man or woman in the place
who found irreverence in it.
A disputable point is reached in
the third act, which. by the way,
is the least impressive part OF the
play Here we have the missions

the pageant is, if not denunCiation,
at least protest against the Mex
ican policy which laid them waste.
