West Virginia and B. j. Sage Of

"Why Solid South; or, Reconstruct

1t undertakes to nulratc fairly and
dispaSsionatcly, i'll II concise and pop

showing how the Republicans OBJ
tanned control and how they lost it,
figures and facts as to the shrinkage

if Lincoln had lived he would have
been able to defend that plan against

Each chaptcris signed by it's author,

and the claim Of the book in it's pre-
face, written by Gen Herbert, it's cdi-

Ovcrstatcd.
The race question and race trou-

statement is made that there is no in
tcntion to agitatc for the repeal of the
18th amendment or the deportation
of the negroes. Educational and
material statistics of many kinds are
given In support of the contention
that the negro is prosperous and that
the South is solving for itself the
negro question.
The book is dedicated to the busi-

mrnt that they arc Interested in con-
tinuing the prosperity fsthe South.

RUSSIAN ATROCITIES.

Tyranny.

Tyranny.
The frequency with which the
Russian Outragcs are brought before
the public by the indefatieoble
george kennan, makes the subject
little tlrcsome. The latest and most
sensational of all--the massacre Of
the political cxiles in Yakutsk--is
treated afresh i'll the April Century,
wherein Mr.. KEENAN, shows quite
conclusively that the explanation
made by the Russian government is
absurd. He concludes his summary
as follows:
One of the executed men, two
hours before the rope was put about
his neck, scribbled hasty farewell,
note to his comrades in which he
SAID: We are not afraid to die, but
try--you--to make our deaths count
for somcthing-wlite all this to Ken
nan. The appeal to me shall not be
III vain. If | live the whole English
speaking world at least, shall know
all the details of this most atrocious
crime
However this may be, the world at
large, and we of America as u part Of
1t. cannot but feel Il deep interest in
what is going on in Russia. There
can be but one end to the total sup
preston of liberty which the govern
mrnt Of Russia exercises this day.

leans were deceived for while with
the roscatc views Of what rejuvena-
ted Russia would surely accomplish
in time.
1t soon became evident, however,
that there was no hope for modcln
civilization III Russia, until she should
pass through the same furnace which
tried France, and in the nature of
things, the trial will be even more Sc
we're. The Tyranny of the French no.

that which the governing class of
Russia exercise without limit, and

the innocent alike with the guilty.
