TTIE OMAIIA DAILY BEE! MONDAY. AUOURT 11 th Bulgarian patriarch of til Mi privilege and force th paopla to coma under the authority of tha Greek patriarch. En couraged by tha authorities, tha Greek blahop and archimandrite forced their way Into the Bulgarian church, burned tha prayer books and employed menace to nmnl tha people to acknowledge tha patriarch. The archimandrite of Salonlca declared In a recent aermon that tba ul tan did not want Bulgarian exarche In his empire. If they remained they would ba exterminated. In addition to tha decrea banlehlng the Bulgarian tradesmen from Constantinople and Salonlca tha porte adopted measures to ruin tha tradera elsewhere. Tha gov-' amor of Monaatlr Issued an order April B. forbidding Bulgarlana to go abroad or aven to Constantinople. Thla order waa Interpreted to prevent Bulgarlana going to any larga city and forcing them to deal anly with Turkish merchants, which would gradually ruin them. Tha provincial ad ministration employed every possible means to Install Mussulmans in the Bul garian villages. On tha slightest pretext tha Bulgarlana were forced to ell their lands to the Turks at any price tha latter chose to pay. Cane of Revolt. Burdened with taxes, liable to perform statute labor for tha Turkish land ownera, tha population la reduced to sv state of serfdom. This la one of the principal causes of discontent and when Is added tha exactions of tha tax-gatherer It la not difficult to understand why tha wretched people should revolt from such a despotlo government and aervltude. In conclusion the memorandum aaserts that tha foregoing exposure once mora con demns Ottoman administrative government In Europe. It saya: "Not long ago tha porte denounced these revolutionary movementa as being fo mented by Bulgaria and tried to put tha responsibility on this principality. Today It must acknowledge that It Is Its bad administration which? Is tha only causa for tha trouble. From sad experience, the porta must learn that systematic pereecu tlon, cruel injustice and bloody repression do not restore order and peace In a coun try. . Tha porta -accepted In principle tha project of reform which It has not put into afTect. It baa declared that tha project la Insufficient Lastly tha porta formally . promised the Bulgarian government to cease the arrests of Bulgarian priests and schoolmasters, reopen tha churches and schoola, release tha prisoners and punish tha offlctals guilty of axactlona, In short to adopt a policy of Justice and amelioration, "Not only haa the porta failed to observe a single ona of these promises, but it has enacted aterner measures of repression, to giva only ona example: It la prescribed as a condition of hla release that a Bui garlan prisoner must furnish either finan cial or personal aeourlty, but In tha latter cose the surety must ba by a Turkish sub' Joct of non-Bulgarian origin. It la easy to comprehend that tha Imprisoned Bui garians find it impossible to obtain release under such conditions. By thla and other similar acts tha Ottoman administration tan ba Judged. What must ba tha result of all thla? Tired of waiting tha fulfil ment of promises of better conditions and driven to despair tha Bulgarian population have thrown themselves Into a revolution, which Is now spreading In an Ottoman province 160 mile from the Bulgarian frontier. "The causes of this revolution, are today known. Tba responsibility la fixed and tha porta can no longer accuse tha Bulgarian principality." The memorandum baa made a strong im pression In diplomatic clrolea. Tba Aus trian diplomatic agent has already called on tha premier to expresa hla anxiety re garding the results that may anaue from its publication.-The French and Italian agents also expresa uneaslnessy although they took a less "gloomy view.
