BULGARIA FREE
OF BOLSHEVISM,
SAYS KING BORIS
People Too Sensible and Too
. Busy to Bother With
Revolutionary Schemes,
Asserts Sovereign
(Correspondence Associated Press)
Sofia, March 23. King Bom of
Bulgaria is confident that there is
iot much danger of the spread of
bolshevik doctrine among the peo
ple of l"'s country. In an inter
view with fhe correspondent of the
Associated Press, he declared that
fhe Bulgir.tn people are too sensi
h.e and to tngrossed in their daily
agricultural pursuits to bother with
revohftionary schemes of govern
ment. The king discussed with the-xor-tespondent
the disorder and chaos
n iuss:a ana tne disturbed in
ternal situation in Germany, and
asked the correspondent's opinion
wifcther tolshevism would obtain a
hold on the new German republic
ir other European countries.
The interview took place in "the
room in which only a few months
iko the young King Boris' father,
King Ferdinand, had abdicated. The
youthful monarch, who is only 25
years old, is very modest, demo
cratic and unobtrusive in manner.
His whole appearance and bearings
suggest the student rather than
royalty. In fact he might be taken
for an American cpllege man. He
has delicate, refined features, alert
but kindly eyes and a quiet, gra
cious address, and speaks excellent
English. His favorite occupation is
mechanics and engineering. He is
able to drive 'a locomotive and al
ways operates his own automobile.
, King Popular Among Troops.
The king wore the drab uniform
of a major with a medal awarded
for bravery at the front on his
breast. He is extremely popular
.among the Bulgarian soldiers with
whom he fought side by side for
three years in dangerous positions.
On the walls of the room in which
the king received the correspondent
were autographed photographs of
the crowned heads of many nation,
but that of the former Emperor
William of Germany was conspic
uously absent. A volume of the ad
dresses of President Wilson rested
on a writing table, and in a book
case nearby were several American
books and Bryce's "American Com
monwealth." The king expressed pleasure in
meeting the American correspond
ent who, he said, was the tirst,
American to visit Bulgaria since
the beginning of the war. His first
question was to ask if his vibitor
had any news relating to the peace
conference in the doings of which
the young king displayed eager in
terest. He declared that the Bul
garian people would long be grate
ful to the United States for ' its
course toward Bulgaria during the
war.
"We have always had an un
shakable confidence in the friend
ship and good will of your coun
try, and the highest admiration for
the splendid principles of your pres-!
ident," said the king. "It is this
feeling which gave us reason to
hope that at the peace conference
the small but industrious Bulgarian
people will have their most power
ful support in the American repub
lic and its illustrious president. In
the early years of their national
awakening, it was the sons of Amer
ica who gave the Bulgarians the
Bible in their own tongue.
"I think that the great mission
which Providence has laid upon
President Wilson will he felt most
beneficially in the Balkans v here
the nations are awaiting justice and
harmony in their political relations
in order to be able to enjoy en
during peace, productive labor and
true moral and cultural progress."
Referring to the work of Amer
ican schools in Bulgaria, King Boris
(declared that their influence upon
education, culture and progress of
the country was enormous. It was
in the American schools at Con
stantinople and Samokov that some
of Bulgaria's best statesmen ob
tained their early training, he de
clared. The king expressed warm
appreciation of the services of
Dominick II. Murphy, formerly
American charge d' affairs in .Bul
garia, and declared that Mr. Murphy
was largely instrumental in bring
ing about the cessation of hostil
ities in the Balkans. Bulgarians,
the king said, would always remem
ber his sympathetic, friendly atti
tude. v
The king paid high tribute to the
British forces in the fighting on
the Macedonian front, for their
bravery and their clean methods of
fighting. "Gas attacks," he said,
"are unsportsmanlike and an in
human method of warfare."
His fondest hope, said the king,
was to visit the United States after
the conclusion of peace. He said
he had a strong desire to see Amer
ica's great universities, manufactur
ing plants, railway systems and pub
lic buildings,

All-American Jewelry
Introduced on Markets
Throughout Country
Chicago April 18. Ail-American
jewelry or native stones and rr.etals
is being turned out in increasing
quantities by jewelry manufacturers
in the United States. A product of
restricted trade conditions during
the war, the native jewelry has won
a vogue which seems to have given
it a permanent place on the market.
The v new jewelry has a more
abundant source of gem supply in
the United States than is generally
known. Few realize the richness of
this country in precious stones and
semi-precious stones that are mined
in 27 states of the union. From
the beginning of the present century
until 1914, when the war broke out,
the value of precious stones annual
ly produced in this country was a
third of a million dollars.
The lowest value was $208,000 in
1906; the highest, $534,280, in 1909.
The output in 1914 was $124,651.
Since then there has been a steady
increase due to the demand for
native gems in jewelry. The in
crease in the value of gems pro
duced in 1916 was 28 per cent more
than in 1915 and 75 per cent more
than in 1914. These are the latest
figures of the U. S. Geological
Survey.
Chief among the native stones
are sapphire, garnet, turquoise,, opal,
tourmaline, topaz, jasper, peridot,
chrysoprase, amethyst, agate, chal
and most of the western Pacific
cedony, carnelian, sardonyx and
several forms of quartz. Montana
is rich in sapphires; New England
in garnets. Jewel stones are found
in greater or lesser ' varieties in
Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Mis
souri, Arkansas, Texas, Colorado,
coast states.
HCWTOGR.OW
TOMATOES
Tomatoes are adapted to growing
in every garden, whether large or
small. To have a supply early in
the season, the seed should be sown
under cover four to six weeks be
fore the weather becomes warm
outdoors, and the plants should he
transplanted once or twice before
setting them in the open ground.
Indoor plants should be gradually
hardened td outside conditions.
This can be done by placing the
boxes , or pots in which they are
planted outdoors for several hours
each day when ' the weather i.;
warm. They may be left out all
night when there is no danger of
frost. Plants for the main or late
crop can be started outdoors after
the ground has become warm.
Two methods are in vogue for
growing tomatoes in home gardens.
In. the small garden the plants may
be set two feet apart in each di
rection and then pruned to a single
stem and tied to stakes. Wnere
plenty of land is available, the
plants may be set three to four feet
apart and allowed to grow natural
ly upon the ground. It should be
borne in mind, however, that by
trimming and tying the plants to
stakes a better quality of fruit is
obtained, and that the fruit' will
ripen earlier than when they are
not trimmed and trained. From 25
to 50 tomato plants will be suf
ficient for growing in the home
garden, and this number will fur
nish plenty of tomatoes for sum
mer use and for canning. Unitod

Herbert Creel' Lights Fire
With Brother George's News
Political Difference Between Head of U.' S. Publicity
Bureau and His Farmer-Brother Appear Irreconcil
ableFather Fought Under Gen. Stonewall Jackson.
When George Creel writes to his
brother. Herbert B. Creel, of Sea
beck, Wash., politics is never men
tioned. By tacit understanding po
litical topics are ignored as futile
and profitless subjects of discourse.
George, as head of the bureau of
public information, is engaged in
running a publicity bureau for the
democratic administration, while
Herbert; a republican since he cast
his first vote, occasionally takes to
the campaign platform in behalf of
the G. O. P.
The political, differences in the
Creel family do not attain to the
importance of a schism. Herbert,
on his ranfh at Seabeck. in Kitsap
county, contemplates the ballyhoo
conducted by Brother' George with
considerable amusement and a great
deal of tolerance, while George is
saddened by"he efforts of his elder
brother to promote the fortunes of
the republican party.
Herbert builds fires in the kitchen
range with the "literature" from his
brother's bureau and occasionally
tries to balance thefamily's political
efforts by writing to newspapers or i
by making a G. O. P. speech.
"Our father was Capt. Henry Clay
Creel, who fought under Stonewall
Jackson in the civil war," said Her
bert Creel." "I was raised a radical
democrat, and it was not until J vis
ited the Centennial exposition at
Philadelphia in 1876 that I realized
there was another side to the ques
tion. I never shall forget the pic
ture that city presented upon the
occasion, of my visit. The Stars and
Stripes 'waved everywhere and the
cadets from West Point in their
smart uniforms were parading. I
felt grieved that we were against
that glorious flag and thej govern
ment that it represented. I was
sore at heart that I could not add
my voice to the mighty diapason of
cheers when the federal soldiers
marched by.
"The thought that came to me
then, that the political party which
I had been taught to believe pos
sessed all the virtues, actually was
the party of sectionalism, became
a settled conviction later that fear
when I heard the campaign speech
es of Hayes and Tilden and the
inaugural address of President
Hayes in the following year.
"In the Garfield-Hancock xcam
paign in 1880 I heard the democrats
charge the republicans had bought
the election and I asked whose
votes they bought. If votes had
been bought they must have been
democratic votes and I then became
convinced that if this were true I
could never belong to a party that
would sell out. If republicans were
unpurchaseable,,! felt that the prin
ciples of party must be worth stand
ing for and fighting for. There and
then I became soured on the demo
cratic party.
"The democratic party never was
and never can be the party of the
whole nation. A party cannot fight
for spates' rights and be friendly to
a strong,, centralized government.
The democratic party is the party
of sectionalism. So long as it is
jealous of the power centered in the
federal government it cannot stand
with the whole nation.
"From tjtHl campaign on I became
as staunch a republican as I had pre
viously been a democrat. I cast my
first vote for James. G. Blaine and I
have voted for the candidate or the
republican "party ever since." -
At Seaback, on Hood canal, Her
bert Creel is achievingvthe ambition
ot a ntetime to nave a model farm.
Five large springs oh the most ele
vated pare ot nis tarm turmsh a
natural irrigation system and suffi
cient water to supply several farms.
He has been a resident of Seaback
for three yeara and for the last 20
years has been a citizen of this
state.
Before coming to the Puget Sound
country he resided in Spokane. In
the campaign of 1900 he was drafted
a republican speaker and one of the
interesting developments of his serv
ice on the G. O. P. platform was a
joint debate with a democrat, which
continued for six nights in-various
towns in Lincoln county.
Herbert Creel was born in 1861 at
Jefferson City, Mo. He received his
early education in the public schools
at aistervme, va., ana at tne epis
copal High school at Alexandria,
Va. Later he attended Chelton
academy at Philadelphia and Ken

Russ as 'Guideski'
Saves Name From
Becoming 'Mudslu
London, April 18-. Away up in
the frozen, snow covered Archangel
front, 25 gobs (Yanlc sailors) hold
ing an isolated sector, got the news
that an allied drive was on. Arch
angel was the objective.
"Cmon guys, let's go," brayed a
self-appointed leader. "Up and at
'em I Give these Red Bolshys hell I"
The whole gang "yip-yippedl" and
started nut for a "touchdown." They
went through that Bolshy line op
posite ,'efn like Yale wading
through the prize foot ball aggrega
tion of Podunk Centre.
But they didn't stop at the goal
post they kept on going. They
drove their sectoKof the Red line
seven miles beyond the city limits..
They became lost in a swamp "and
were surrounded by bolsheviki. The
situation was serious. v
"Hain't this a helluva note?"
chirped a gob. . "You wise guys
oughta listened t' reason an' let the
poor muts go after we reached
Archangel. How we gonna get
outta this mess?" gloomingly then
suddenly a grin, I ve got it.
"Hey, you. Whiskers" he. prod
ded a ragamuffin bolshevik prisoner,
"You get us outta. this swampski
so we can get an even break at
cracking these birdskii around
hereski, or your name is mudskit"
" The Russian showed the way out
of the swamp and the French cam
up with reinforcements, helping thtf
anks to escape.
The story was brought to London
and givM first-hand to the Uni
versal by some of the gobs who
participated' in the stunt. They
landed hgre with some half hurfdred
other American sailors who arrived
irom fwatnerine mroor, Murmansk
and Archangel. They are the real
veterans of the United States navy
in Arctic waters, for they have been
on convoy and land duty around
northern Russia since last May.
They are the remnant of the his
