BULGARIA SHOWS NO OUTWARD SIGN OF WAR; ANXIOUS RESUME

The Bulgarian government and peo- pie are extremely anxious the United States should establish active trade

There is great need of farm implements, machinery fabrics and manufactured articles of all kinds The United States appointed consul to Bulgaria in May. but he has not yet arrived in Sofia. The Bulgarians are hopeful he may be able to bring the two countries into closer commercial relationship. There is an immense accumulation of tobacco and altar of roses which the govern
 uent is anxious to dispose of. There has been so little demand for altar of roses, due to the war, that a mum Der of peasants have turned their
 ,se gardens into vegetable farms.
 The stores of Sofia gradually are .hlling up. Goods are Altering thru from Italy, France and Greece. The low rate of exchange, however has placed heavy burdens on the local merchants The Bulgarian franc which at par is worth 20 cents, is now equivalent to only 1 cents. The American dollar and the Greek draCh- ma Qranc) are the only moneys that ell at their face value.
 Until peace is signed by all the Balkan States, the French and Italian armies may continue to occupy Bull garia. The Greeks now are massed in large numbers in Macedonia and along the Bulgarian frontier. The Italians. by their moderation and de- pertinent have won the favor of the Bulgarians, but the French army has a large force Of Colored and other colonial troops here and are extreme ly unpopular. The Bulgarians com plain of frequent attacks on women and other disorders by these colored soldiers.

 abundance of food in the country, the health of the population is good, and everybody is devoting himself to the active pursuits of peace
 The war has become only a mem ory in the minds of the thrifty and philosophical Bulgarian peasants, who are so absorbed in their agricultural and household pursuits that they have little time to think of the past. But all eyes are naturally turned to Paris, where the destinies of Bulgaria are being weighed The attitude of mind of the people might be described as one of hoping for the best but ex- pecting the worst"

All the oldtimers in this district know Wada, Ina Jap, who took the first dogteam from Fairbanks to Daw- son with the news of the gold strike that resulted in this camp. Wada, by the Dawson News, is now enrOute to the Aarctic ocean on prospecting tour backed by New York capital.
 He left Fort McMurray, Alberta, about the middle of August for the mouth of the Mackenzie river, trans porting himself in canoe with his supplies. He is going into that coun- try to endeavOr to re-make gold dis covery which he made when a mem Der of the crew of a whaling ship which wintered at Herchel island be- fore the Klondike was struck. This is his sixth trip in there during the last two years. Every time he has attempted it something has happened to prevent him reaching his destina- tion Twice before he was within twenty-five miles of the place and had to return. He went in there from Nome by Boring straits in 1905; over
 .. from Dawson in 1908, and this time is going down the Mackenzie river. He also went by ship one time. He is well outftted and expects to be able to get to the place during the coming winter. Wada says that there and that if he makes a discovery, as he hopes to, prospectors will soon know about 1t, as he will be out again in the spring.

NOTED GENERAL COMES AS AIDE
 BEGAN RULER

NEW YORK.-(By MaiD-Lieuten- ant General Baron Jacques, who, ac- cording to his own assertion, occupied

 international show" in 1914, is the
 which is accompanying King Albert on his visit in the United States. Tall ! straight as an arrow, General Jac- ques looks like the fighting man he is and has been from boyhood, for he is one of the professional soldiers upon whom Belgium relied when it
 made the great decision which held up the German army until French action.
 General Jacques was in command of the Twelfth Regiment, one of the crack military organizations of Bel gium, and was stationed at Liege where General Leman was in com mand
 T had never been impressed by the bOmbast of the German soldiery and l had full confidence in my own men," said the General as he sat in a plainly furnished cabin on board | the George Washington on the voy- age to New Yok and talked of the | early days of the war.
 We first came in contact with the Germans on the bridge at Wise, and after a sharp fight drove them back capturing the flag of the 97th Bran | denburg regiment.
 That fight aroused the people, and | immediately We had more than a thou ! sand civilian volunteers, digging
 trenches and helping in every way possible. General Leman issued a proclamation in which he said: Big | Germany has invaded our country i'm posing an ulitmatum which consti- tutes an outrage. Little Belgium proudly accepts the challenge. The | Belgium army will do it's duty. The people of Liege only ask to be allowed to do theirs.'
 | During the discouraging days which | followed, when the Belgian army was | compelled to retire from place to place until it at last had to give up Antwerp and begin it's slow retreat along the coast General Jacques neV- CT doubted the final outcome, and encouraged his men by pointing out that when the reached the Yser river the backward movement would end. And so it did.
 My regiment had orders to hold | DiXmude till death and we did. Not until high command decided to evac- uate the town did we leave our places" said the general.
 "The war is over, but the Germans
 still have arms and men. It is up to the allies to see they do not use them again. I look upon the Ger man as barbarian who still has in his heart the desire to conquer, because he is trained to it from the cradle
 This war was not a war entirely oi

 They believed they would be able td

Going To the Fair.
By Niksah.

UOl1g 10 the fAlTs
All over the United States this
is the open season for going to the
fair. During this and last month,
thousands of county, state and
community fairs have fiourished,
and there are still more coming.
County seat hotels that have never
had more than three guests at
time since last fair week are again
overlooking with humanity. The
country people everywhere, having
cut the corn and stacked the hay,
are hitching up the team or crank
ing up the fiivver to go to the fair.
Everyone in the United States
used to go to the fair, before our
cities became so large; it was then
an occasion when farmers and city
people met and mingled. 1t is that
no longer Most of the people in
New York and Chicago never saw
a county fair and wouldn't go half
a block to see one. They have no
interest in prize roosters and NAM
moth sQuashes, nor yet in three
shell games and calliOpes.
Yet if anyone wished to study
the United States of America in
all its geographical variety, he
could not do better than to travel
about in the fall of the year and
visit as many different fairs as pos
sibIe. He would learn more about
the different varieties Of American
people, and the regional variations
of American industry in one fair
season than in a year of ordinary
He would see the fairs of the Fir-
ginia and Maryland horse country,
where racing is the leading attrac-
ton and more fine horse flesh
changes hands than he ever
thought existed. He would go to
the middle west where corn and
hogs are supreme, where the coun-
ty fairs are expressive OF all the
fairness and wealth and SNUG pla-
cidity of one of the richest farming

Special Moline servlce)

was a quiet and undemonstrative
crowd that heard the radical
speaker. Debacht spoke consider
ably Of communism. revolution and
OF revolutionary action.
Revolution" he said, 'is a stage
of transformation in society. We
must destroy completely capitalism
and establish communism. Using
the capitalist machinery to estah-
lish socialism is all tommyrot. The
capitalist society exists only to pro-

Debacht's goal seems to be the
establishment of the United States
workers Of the world, He made a
more or less dramatic appeal for
something on that order at the end
