GREEKS DESIRE REGENT
DURING KINGS ILLNESS

MILAN, June 26.-Telegrams from
Athens state that the immense majority
OF the nation desires that regent be APP
pointed as the King will be unable to
direct affairs OF state for the long weeks
which may be fatal to the interests of
Greece In this crisis of her history.
1t Is believed that, in spite Of the infu-
ence Of Queen Sophia, a sister of the
Kaiser, who threatens to leave Greece If
war Is declared against Germany, the
Crown FRINGE would follow the policy of
ex-Premier Venizelos. Others regard him
as 100 young and would prefer his uncle,
Prince George.
That Turkey regards the situation as
critical, but fears rather the attack of
Bulgaria, is proved today by the feverlsh
haste with which Adrianople is being .put
in defensive condition. The garrison
has been reinforced by $4,000 men.

RELATIONS MAY BE SEVERED

The diplomatic tangle in which the
United States and Germany are IN
volyed is likely to result in a sever
ance OF relations between the two
countries. 1t is the opinion in Berlin
that such will be the wind up of the
controversy and Washington is shar-
ing that opinion.
And then the United States and
Germany Will not be on speaking
terms, which does not mean that they
will be Oh fighting terms.
Won Bernstorif, the German ambas
sador at Washington. is exerting him
self to prevent the official declaration
of unfriendliness, basing his action
upon a belief that a misunderstand
ing exists. He is moving in good
faith to bridge the widening breach.

AMERICAN CONFERENCE

ton last week between the representa-
tlves Of all American nations. has
marked a new epoch in the relation
snip between the United States and
the leading countries of South Amer1-
ca, particularly the great ones,
Brazil, Argentine and Chile.
1t was plainly the wish of all those
present to form a sort of invisible
union so that if any aggressive
union in Europe should suddenly "po
mad" as has recently been done and
attack any nation in North and South
America, that they will have to at
tack all, In other words, the ma.
tons in the new world are going to
ADOPT the motto of the famous hero
OF Dumas novel D'Artagnan, namely:
: All for one and one for ALL" This
is simply an addition to the Monroe
Doctrine. which served notice on all
the European powers that they are
not to enlarge their territories by ac-
qulslt'ons III the new world. The
burden of the Monroe Doctrine has
heretofore rested on the shoulders of
Uncle sam alone, but in the future

GoLLMAR BROTHERS PARADE
Reveals Character of Show

The Gollmar Brothers show which
exhibits in Pierre Monday, June 21 !,
features everything connected with
1t, from the street parade to the CON
cert. The press of other cities have
only made the most favorable com
ment for Gollmar Brothers parade.
Even when the show visits territory
whefe 1t has never been, its magniti-
cent street pageant so agreeably sur
prlses the public that they are sure
to crowd the immense tents.
1t is i'll the parade shat the manage
ment of circus can show to good
advantage the stability and character
of the aggregation. II it is cheap
concern, giving only ordinary per-
formances. its parade will demon
stmte the fact. If it is really meri.
torlous the street display will tell
the tale. The splendid equipm ent
OF the great Gollmar Brothers circus
is shown to excellent advantage in
WV oiS f1IduC, anu IL Is hiWaYS COM
p'lmented The horses are in fine
trim, and the tableaux, wagons, dens,
cages and chariots are resplendently
decorated with costly carvings, gilt
and varnish. An unusually large
number of dens are open in the par
ade, and the general public is given
a free exhibition of fine array of
wild animals. All in all, it is pro-
nounced by many as the finest and
best circus display ever seen upon
any streets. But it is in the circus
performance that the new show
excels.
The parade of the Gollmar Brothers
show will start from the lot at 10
O'Clock sharp and traverse the prin-
cipal streets.

THE REAL DIFFERENCE

President Wilson's insistence that
Germany conform to the internation-
al rules in order to protect American
ilVes has been as soft as velvet and
as strong as steel.
But the official German idea seems
to be that while this insistence ia yip-
orous i'll words the United States will
be mild in action.
Germany invites discussion of
things that the United States has said
must be answered promptly and defin-
itely.
The United States wonders at this
and cannot understand. German
writer's complain that Americans
cannot think themselves into the
mind OF another nation"
This mey be true, but the German
government recently has demonstrate
ed by its attituds in response to the
presidents policy that it cannot think
Itself into the mind of the United
States.
The people of Germany and of the
United States are not antagonistic.
But the systems of both countries are
so vastly different that they are bound
to be antagonistic.
Germany has been preparing for
war for many years. For almost the
same length of time the United
States has been working for q con-
tlnuance of peace. The United States
was not even mildly interested in the
German military theory. Our states
men have smiled when some enthusi-
astlc German scholar or soldier wrote
oook aud told how Germany was to
conquer the United States, some day.
1t might be true that Germany could
DO 1t, but why mention it? Why
should the United States be interest
ed in the military theory of Germany
or in any other military theory
Besides, we said, this militarism
was largely eostIy plaything. It
was not Gesnrany's principal motive.
Germahy was advancing rapidly in
| soelahstic ideas, in laws for the pab-
| lic welfare, in all things that we're
the opposite OF mllitarism aud armed
oppression.
But, all at once the German military
theory became vital issue. It is
now recognized that everything done
by Germany was subordinated to this
system, 1t was the German funds-
mensal-and one directly opposed to
the Ideals of America.
It's efficiency cannot be questioned: !:
but that system and that efficiency are
directly antagonistic to the American
method, 1t has become apparent that
IT Germany wins in this war, the Unit
ed States must conform to a similar sys-
TEN or tace very real danger. Ger
many has made this plain in her atti-
tude IN dealing with our government.
6eset as she is by enemies, she does
not fear another; her military theory
rules. and it's back bone is efficiency and
| fearlessness.
Germany does not understand Presi-
dent Wilson'S insisteucc, or does not
give HIM credit for saying what he
means. Germany's attitude has been
unresponsive.
