BESSARABIA: SHAPED LIKE
A PITCHER WITHOUT
A HANDLE

R0umania, since the conclusion OF
the World war. the largest Of the
states Of southeastern Europe, owes
much Of this increased area to Its re-
cent annexation Of Bessarabia, pre-
ylously part Of Russia.
Bessarabia, the former Russian
province lying between the Pruth and
the Dniester rivers, and bounded on
the south by the Danube and the
Black sea, might be likened In shape
to tall, slim pitcher, without han.
die. 1t is completely bounded by wa.
ter except at very narrow point at
the mouth Of the pitcher. The Dnies-
ter river forms the eastern boundary
Of the province. Flowing out Of the
crown lands at Gallcia, the river runs
east In general direction for approx,
mately fifty miles. Then 1t turns
southeast for ninety miles to Dnlester
bay, an arm Of the Black sea. some
fifteen miles from Odessa, Russia's
principal port on that inland body Of
water. The Pruth river, flowing out
Of Gallcla, runs east for about twenty
miles, then turns southeast for hun
dred and ten miles. and then slightly
west Of south to Its confluence with
the Danube.
Bessarabia Is little smaller than
Vermont and New Hampshire togeth.

wooded off-shoots of the Carpathian
mountains In the northwest. It might
be said to be the vineyard Of Russia,
beinga great producer Of wine. The
pcpulation Of $500, 600 Is made up Of
Moidavians, Little Russians. Poles,
R0umanlans, Bulgarians, Jews, Arme-
nians. Greeks. and Tartars. More
than 100000 Of the inhabitants live
nltf tie soil. The capital is Klshinef,
which Is located almost at the center
Of the province. To the west Of Bes.
sarabia lies Roumanian Moldavia, and
to the east the Russian province Of
Podolia and Kherson.
The original Inhabitants of Bessa.

lans. Because 1t was the key to one
Of the approaches toward the empire
Of Byzantium, the province was In.
vaded by many successive races dur.
ing the early centuries Of the Chris.
tian era. Trajan incorporated It with
the province Of Dacia. and In the next
century the Goths poured into 1t, to
be followed In turn by the Huns. and
Avars, and the Bulgarians.
In the seventh century Thraclan
tribe. known as the Bessi, settled
there and gave to the land Its name
Between I'LL and 1872 1t was the
great bone Of contention between the
Ottoman Turks and the Russians
The Russians lost and recaptured II
five times In that century. After the
Napoleonic wars, It was definitely an.
nexed to Russia. and Its frontier
pushed southwark SO as to include
the delta Of the Danube.
Az result Of the Crimean war
Moldayia was given Dobrudja and
other territory. but under the treaty
Of Berlin In 1873, following Russia'a
mastery Of Turkey and the congress
OF Berlin. Russia secured all Of the
territory east of the river Pruth. Bes
sarabia remained part of Russia
from that time until the dismember.
mept Of the cars empire. following
the Russian revolution.

PAWNEE Bill
HiNTRODUCEO

Aoot rIAuuy the HdWuce OiA WuS
introduced In the House OF the Co
dorado legislature.
The Enterprise man spent few
days in Denver during the week and
talked with several Of the members
Of the Senate. 1t is too early to
form very dfienite opinion OF the
chances for the bill to pass
In this respect, we clip the fol-
lowing from the Weld County News;
County Division Alive Again
The problem Of the division of
Weld into two counties, the new
county to be known as Pawnee coun-
ty. is to be live issue before the leg
lslature according to present indica-
tions. Representative Abbey, who Is
known to be committed to the divi-
sion plan, took with him to Denver
former Representative C r.. Graves
Of New Raymer. editor CT the En-
terprise. who assisted him In becom-
ing acquainted with his duties and
the mazes OF the capitol. It is also
said that Graves has assisted In the
preparation Of the county division
bill and that fund has been raised
among the residents. The fight
waged by Greeley and other valley
residents against the proposal to d.
vide the county will not be made this
year. the general feeling being that
It is matter Of primary Importance
to the people living within the limS
Its Of the proposed new county and
that the people Of Greeley and VI
cinity are concerned In much less
degree.
The appointment OF Representative
Abbey to membership on the COM
mittee on counties and county lines
places him in a strategic position
to engineer the bill to q successful
finish in his own house. as the mat
ter undoubtedly will be referred to
that tcommittee when the bill isintro-
duced. Among members Of the leg
islature, however. there Is a feeling
that the present IL no time for the
establishment of new governmental
units unless they are necessary. and
1t Is possible that fight Will devel-
ope which will result in the defeat
Of the measure or which will at least
keep 1t in committee until the session
adjourns.--Greeley Tribune.
Mr.. Foster is a very keen Judge
Of appearances, and is probably able
to exercise correct judgment as
well or better than most observers.
1t Is our opinion that the vote on
the Limon and Flagler county bills
at the last election will not help mat
.ters for any division bills this win
ter II Is not known whether other
county division bills will be before
the legislature or not. At least two
more are talked Of. One would di-
vide Las Animas county, and another
would take parts OF Lincoln and Ell
bert, but Is entirely different from
other bills that have been after some
Of Lincoln county territory.
Lincoln county seems to be un-
fortunately situated. and, seems sub
ject to raids from all angles of the
compass
The Pawnee bill Is the same as the
bill Of four years ago, with the same
boundaries. and the same provision
that the people shall select the coun-
ty seat.

about 8 o'clock yesterday morning a
man called at Bishop J. J. LAWYERS

and asked the priest to come with Elm
