Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. SOFIA. July 21.—Suffering defeat after defeat at the hands of its for mer allies and friends, the crowning humiliation coming at the hands of the Turks, who recaptured Adrianople without opposition, the warlike spirit of the Bulgarians has been tamed. With the Roumanian army within a day’s march of Sofia, the Bulgars are ready to accept peace at any price. The retaking of Adrianople by the Turks seems to mark the utter col lapse of Bulgaria’s resistance to the attacks of its former allies and its former enemy. Apparently Bulgaria’s recent crush ing reverses are largely due to dis sensions among its commanders in the field and the lack of confidence on the part of the Government in the heads of its army. From present indications it is like ly that Bulgaria will be shorn of the territory which came to it as the result of the victories over the Turks in the recent war. Already the Sofia Government has offered Roumania an important terri torial concession to cease hostilities, it is likely that the other Balkan States will claim a large share of territory as the fruits of victory. Peace arrangements probably will be made without the assistance of the powers, the Balkan States being in sistent upon settling their dispute without outside interference. Atlanta ■=* Pope ’s Swiss Guard Is Shorn of Honor Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. ROME, July 21.—The Pope’s Swiss Guard to-day was deprived of its mil itary status at the Vatican.

Win#, therefore, should be the sense in crippling or in any way weaken ing the present game laws? Who. also, is demanding that they be tampered with? The impression is that only the most selfish of interest** are behind the movement to harm the game laws, even though sorr^e ot ; the members ad vocating same imay not know that, and that the. movement should Aot succeed. qjeprgia was many years In get- the* point *iWra-It realized the ..necessity Of preserving its game.

The Legislature gladly and willingly testifies to that! Judge Carl Vinson’s announcement for Congress has aroused consider able interest throughout the State, and particularly in the Tenth District. Few men in Georgia Reserve more credit thaji Carl Vinson. -He began life with practically' nothing, arid while he does not own any great num ber of coupon bonds yet, he still is getting along from fair to middling well. He has served his county creditably in the House of Repre sentatives. and Inst session was Speaker Pro Tern. If elected to Con gress. he will make a first-class mem ber—no doubt of that. Vinson used to be a newsboy in MilledgeVilld, and later along becam something of a magnate in that busi ness. With the savings of several years, he. went to Mercer University, where he graduated with distinction and honors. He is now a practicing attorney j in Milledgeyjl]e, .and is judge of th*- County Court of Baldwin. Therfe' are thfee opinions prevailing in the Legislature with respect to the Western and Atlantic Railroad—the State’s biggest piece of property. One faction inclines to sell the road outright, a second faction inclines to extend it to the Atlantic Ocean, and a third faction inclines to let it alone and re-lease it as It now Is. The present lease expires in 1919. and. therefore, the matter of the road's disposition is already a matter of great concern, and speculation is general as to just what will become of it. The present Legislature will make no immediate specific recommenda tions. of course, because there no* only is plenty of time left in which to adjust , the matter, but anything this Legislature might do would, perhaps, be subject to revision by future Leg islatures—unless a hard and fast bar gain were entered into at once, which is not within the range of the prob able. The Western and Atlantic’s re lease, or sale, or extension, is a prob lem of far-reaching complications, involving not only* the finest property the State of Georgia has. hut the set tlement of a question pending between the State and Chattanooga, involving the State of Tennessee. Prohibitionists generally In Geor gia are watching developments in Ma con with interested eyes. A number of saloons in that city have been closed by process of in junction. under the act permitting the abatement of nuisances, and if that movement Is sustained by .the' Supreme Court, it Is contended that the prohibitionists of Georgia will need no further Tippins bills, Webb bill, or any other sort of bills, to make prohibition effective. At least one case will be carried up promptly from the city of Macon as a test. Upon, it prohibitionists are building their fondest hopes, while the other fellows are unjlously watch ing to see what happens. Sisters Run Looms For Mrs. Wilson WINSTON-SALEM, N. C.. July 21.
