A TOPPING MONARCHY

The Gear of Russia wanted to give
the people more liberty, but his wife
insisted that if he did so his five month
old son when he ascended the throne
would have less power. The argu-
ment of this foolish and narrow mind
ed woman had its weight and the
Car now finds revolution sweeping
over his kingdom and the streets of
the capitol running with blood.
The Russian soldiery who cannot
cope Nth the Japs in battle are now
indu' ging in massacre of unarmed
men and women. The son Of the
Car will never reign on his fathers
throne for it will take a search war
rant to find the throne inside year.
The peoplehave tired of such absolute
monarchy and are fighting for the.-
liberties and a republic ruled by the
people, If the royal family escape
with their lives they will be in more
than ordinary luck.
Thus the bloody French revolution
will repeat itself.
The sports are hitting the faro game
pretty hard in this city during the last
few days. The Mason Valley sports
seems to have things all coming their
way.
