BULGARIA. NAY be
KEPT OUT OF WAR
THAT Is THE BELIEF OF MILL
TAIsY EXPERTS IN
LONDON.
They Believe that Bulgaria Will
Make Only an Armed Show
Against Serbia to Force
Concessions.

LONDON. Sept. 22-Despite dis
quieting reports the belief is held
in some quarters that Bulgaria may
yet be kept out CT the war Sever
al diplomatic agents took the view
that Bulgaria will only attempt to
secure concessions from Serbia by
making an armed show. If Serbia
refuses Bulgaria will then withdraw
her menacing attitude without
striking a blow.
Despite the Bulgarian mobiliza-
tion the greatest confidence is felt
in military circles that Serbia will
stand against the Austro-Germans.
'The Austro-Germans must use
at least 100000 men to make any
headway against Serbia, one mill
tary expert said. II do not believe
that many men will consid-
er this as fact when the Russians
have checked the Germans in the
east
The Serbian army has large sup
plies of ammunition in marked con-
trast te the situation with Serbia
early in the war. Since Serbia
first inflicted crushing defeat
against the Austrians in December
she has been supplied with every
requirement for modern army.
The Austro-German bombardment
indicates a planto advance along
the Moravia valley as the ground in
this region gives great natural adj
yantages to the Serbians.

The Trade Boosting Trip.

Today Washington's trade boost
ers" start their auto trip around the
circle of nearby Maryland and Vir-
ginia towns, for the purpose of ac-
quainting the buyers of those locali-
ties of the advantages of dealing with
the local houses. The plan is well
conceived and should bring results.
Washington is a natural trading GEN.
ter for large area, for both whole
sale and retail dealings. 1t can sell
as cheaply as other cities. Its facili-
ties for moving goods are excellent.
For buyers who come to town it Of
fers superior attractions in features
that are lacking elsewhere.
With a band to wake the echoes
and with energetic statesmen to set
before the people the practical rea-
sons for doing business with the
Washington houses this trip should
serve as a valuable stimulus. 1t will
have the advantage additionally of
acquainting the merchants of the
capital with the country round about,
bringing them into touch with locali-
ties which perhaps they have never
before visited. In Maryland especial
ly the roads are so good that it is
now easy to travel through a wide
area, while Virginia is doing some
thing in the same way, though not
enough.
A close community of interest ex-
lists between Washington and the
nearby Maryland and Virginia Sec
tions. Many of the workers in this
city dwell in the two states. In every
line of business there is a reason for
close ties. All that is needed is en-
terprise on the side of the Districts
business men to carry far and wide
the word that they are capable of
serving their Maryland and Virginia
customers satisfactorily, and this en-
terprise is now being shown in the
trip that is expected to bring steady
and increasing currents of trade into
Washington.

The G. A. r. Encampment Plans.

All preparations for the coming
6. A. R. encampment are we'll ad-
vanced, and there is no doubt that
as result of the unremitting labors
of the citizens committee for sew
eral months past Washington will
entertain the veterans of the civil
war in a manner that accords with
the standard set on the two other
occasions of their reunions here.
Everything possible has been done
in anticipation of the event. An
elaborate program has been pre-
pared, with provisions for the COM
fort and the entertainment of the
thousands who are expected to at
tend. The city will be tastefully and
appropriately decorated, stands will
be provided for the reviewing of the
parade and facilities have been pro-
vided for the holding of the many
meetings incidental to this great an
nual reunion.
This year some of the national
conventions that usually are held in
Washington have been located on
the Pacific coast in consequence of
the two California Panama exposi-
tions, which have proved a strong
attraction for travellers. The G. A. R.
veterans, however, wisely decided
against such long journey. mas
much as they are now we'll advanced
in years. Washington is their ideal
meeting place. Here they are on the
ground of the most stirring events
of the civil war period. and within
easy reach of some of the most sig
ni6cant encounters OF that struggle.
Washington has many souvenirs for
the men who fought over fifty years
ago. and whenever they come here
it endeavors to make them welcome
and to entertain them handsomely.

The Naval Inventions Board.

Secretary Daniels announcements
as to the personnel of the new naval
inventions board justify the expecta-
tions of the public regarding its
character. The men chosen to ad-
wise the government in the matter of
naval improvements and advances, in
the course of the development that
is imperatively demanded by the ma
tional situation, are leaders in their
lines of research and scientific activ-
ity. They were chosen by their re-
spective organizations, representing
the highest degree of technical and
scientific advancement in this coun-
try. While some of the names are
unfamiliar to the public. they are by
no means unknown to the world in
which big things are done. The true
scientist is, as rule, a modest man,
seeking no publicity and content to
progress along his line without adver-
tiscment. Some of the more eminent
of these technicians have publicity
thrust upon them and thus become
widely known by the people. 1t mat
tiers not, however, whether these
twenty-five men now named to aid
Mr.. Edison in the important task in
view are conspicuously before the
public. Their works stand as their
guarantees, and the fact that they
have been named after a most careful
canvass of the country is assurance
that the United States will get the
best advice possible and the benefit
of the most advanced scientific
thought. The navy cannot fail to be
stronger and more efficient for the
work of this board of eminent Amer
leans.

cratic senator's who in 1894 helped Mr..
German recast the Wilson tariff bill
in behalf of higher protection rates
on a number of articles of American
production was James Smith, jr. He
was denounced by the free traders for
his position, but could not be budged.
The Underwood tariff is not popu-
lar with the manufacturing interests
in any of the states, and is as un-
popular in New Jersey as anywhere.
True, her two senators voted for it.
But in a verdict rendered at the polls
in one Of her congressional districts
since the passage of the law the ex-
preston was decidedly against the
measure. 1t will please the repub-
lican managers if they are able to de-
velop the tariff into commanding, if
not the paramount, position in their
effort to recapture control of the
country.
This, however, has nothing to do
with the denomination of Mr.. Wilson.
He stands for the Underwood law as
do the other democratic leaders, no
more, no less. They all stand for it.
Mr.. Clark, Mr.. Underwood, Mr..
Bryan, Mr.. Marshall and others,
whether in Congress or out, gave
their approval to the measure which
at the time was guaranteed to re-
duce the cost of living, raise enough
revenue for the support of the gov
ernment, and hearten business, but
which failed in all three particulars,
and is still a failure.
