The Stamping Tour.

The third announcement is now
made respecting the Presidents pro-
jected stumping tour. The first was
for q start almost Immediately after
the submission Of the peace treaty ia
the Senate. The second was for q
start that would land him in San Fran
cisco about the middle Of August. The
third is to land him there about the
middle of September. Is the third to
be the chosen? Or will there be an
other announcement
The first postponement was we'll JUS
titled. The President had just return
ed from q protracted siege Of hard
work abroad. The warm season was at
hand, and a transcontinental railroad
journey. broken by speaking stops,
would prove severely taxing on the
Presidents physical strength.
The second postponement was justi-
fed in the fact that departure from
base at that time would be inoppor-
tune. It would interrupt the confer
enccs with individual Senators inaugu-
rated by the President.
If his third announcement sticks,
the President will have the weather in
his favor, and good deal of light on
the Senate's attitude toward the peace
treaty which should stand him well in
hand on a stamping tour.
But there is q reason now for such a
tour that did not exist when the tour
was first projected. There is an Amer.
lean feet in the Pacific which has
aroused pride and interest throughout
the whole of the western country and
particularly on the western coast. And
6 review of that fleet by the President
would be an event Of the liveliest mo-
ment to the people Of that section.
So that the case stands like this: IF
an agreement should be reached soon,
bringing about the ratification Of the
peace treaty on terms satisfactory to
both sides, the tour will be justified
with the review Of the fleet the princi-
pal object. IF the treaty is still undis-
posed Of, both supporters and oppo-
rents celebrating and emphasizing
their arguments, the tour win enable
the President to address the crowds
that win gather to hear him ON both
the treaty and the feet.
The Presidents address ON submit
ting the treaty to the Senate was in
general terms. The conferences on
the subject he has been holding with
senators have been confidential. As q
result, the general public is still with
out information about treaty details
which It desires.
A tour made with the treaty as his
leading subject Of discussion would
necessarily draw some Of those details
from the President; and thus win the
discussion in the Senate be increased
in interest and importance. Hence the
attention that will now center on the
subjects Of the treaty, the tour and the
feet, considered singly or grouped.

Bulgaria's Demands"

Bulgarian delegates at Paris have
presented, it is reported, to the peace
council q memorandum stating Bull
garia's demands in the way Of terri
tory. Macedonia, Thrace and the Do
brudja, according to this claim, must
be Bulgar soil.
The position Of Bulgaria in the war
has not been of an exalted character.
It is, however, to be always remem-
bered that there was q marked diff
ference between the Bulgarian peo-
pie and the Bulgarian government.
The former were pro-entente, the lat
ter was decidedly pro-German. Pre-
mier Radoslavoff, rejecting the. views
Of King Ferdinand, played fast and
loose in his negotiations with the en-.
tente, seeking extortionate terms or
oncessions for declaration against
the central powers. 1t is believed that
at no time was there any thought OF
Bulgaria's entering the war on the side
Of the entente save ON terms that would
make her the overwhelmingly domi-
nant power in the Balkans, to the
detriment Of Serbia and Greece. And
there was NO chance Of such conces-
sions being granted. The entente diplo-
matists undoubtedly wasted time in
dealing with the government at So
fla, which was steadfastly maintaining
the most intimate relations with Aus
tria and Germany. Finally Bulgaria
went into the war definitely on Ger
many's side, the specific price being .
connected" boundary along the Ma
rita river, giving Bulgaria bit Of
Turkish territory and complete con-
troll Of the railway to Dedeagatch oh
the Aegean sea. Thus Turkey was
made to pay the price Of Germany's
accession Of an ally, losing a portion
of the city Of Adrianople. Bulgaria
was to obtain larger concessions in the
event Of success, including Macedonia
and dominance throughout the Balkan
peninsula.
During the war Bulgarian troops
wrought the most terrible cruelties
upon the people of the territories they
occupied. They slew and tortured
civilians, pillaged property, outraged
women; in fact, faithfully followed
the example Of their major partners in
the war. Animosities long engendered
were infamed to the utmost. Today
the name Of Bulgaria is anathema
throughout that part of the world. To
place Bulgaria in control of Macedonia
and Thrace would be, apart from any
consideration of equity, to insure .
perpetual conflict in that region. to
make the Balkan problem more diff
cult and dangerous than ever before.
The effrontery Of the present demand
for Macedonia, Thrace and Dobrudja
is characteristics. Justice demands that
Bulgaria be reduced to a minor and
inconsequential part in the Balkan
equation. IF the Paris council cor
rectly settles these territorial ques-
lions, admittedly difficult owing to the
conglomerate mixture Of races between
the Danube and the sea, it will ex-
clude Bulgaria from any part in the
government Of the peoples who have
been SO cruelty wronged by her in the
course of her unholy alliance with
Germany.

Would Try Allied
Statesmen Also

COPENHAGEN, Aug, 6.-The for
rner Prince Henry of Prussia, in a
letter to King George, published today
by the Hamburger Nachritchen, says
the truth about the war may be had
from the allied statesmen, and he sug-
gests that if the former German en-
peror is placed on trial the statesmen
also appear.
The letter asks King George, "in-
terest to desist from demanding the
name of justice and his own interest
the extradition and trial of the for
mer German ruler. The letter, which
is signed, "Your humble cousin
Henry" charges that England plotted
Germany's commercial downfall.
eff the allies want the truth" the
former prince says, "the leading
statesmen of Great Britain and her
allies should also be brought before
the tribunal as primarily and urgent
~ suspected of guilt in the world
war"
The letter continues: Germany
and her brave people have ben hit
severely, but they are not yet dead
The German spirit which now seems
dead still lives, and will one day awak-
en- to full consciousness of the dis
grace and shame which have been
inflicted and will one day demand a
reckoning"
The letter charges that it was SOLE
