CAR TREMBLING FOR LIFE
All Semblance of Law in Russia De-
stroyed.
POLICY OF BEsTIAL REPRISALs
World Will Be Appalled, by Reign OF
Lawlessness and Deeds of Vio-
lence, He Now Thinks.

Maxim Gorky yesterday issued a
hysterical appeal to the American
people for help for his suffering
countrymen. He pays his comph-
ments in no mistaken terms to the
car and draws a revolving picture
of what he thinks will happen in
Russia in the near future. Amer
lea is not doing her duty in the
premises, he declares.
NEW YORK. July 2s-Maxim Gorky to-
day made public an appeal directed to the
people of America to help the people of
Russia to free its body from the para
sites which suck it's life's blood" The ap-
peal was in part as follows:
THE car has dispersed the douma.
This small man, trembling on his throne
for his life and power like an aspen leaf.
has with one stroke OF his pen destroyed all
semblance of law in Russia and called into
life a new series of murders, robberies and
outrages.
The Russian government will now In
augurate a policy of brutal and bestial re-
prisals. The hangmen and thieves sur
rounding the throne and supporting it with
blood-stained hands have Of late heard
many bitter and insulting truths from the
lips OF courageous and honest men. They
will avenge themselves for 1t, and their
vengeance will be severe.
Will Appall the World.
"Embittered, accustomed to shed blood
and encouraged by the reign of lawness-'
ness, they will once more appall the world
by their deeds. They will commence TO
annihllate and destroy the leaders of the
people. and having destroyed the leaders
they will again declare war on the peopole,
the unarmed and defenseless people who
are dreaming of peace and civilization, and
who had been lmpatiently hoping for
the triumph of justice.
"The black. blood soaked wings of death
viii fiutter over the country for months.
The exhausted earth will swallow thou
sands of corpses of men whose only crime
was the desire TO live human life. Many
women and children will perish from bull
let's. swords and clubs. Many crying out
RACES will be perpetrated. The world will
be seized with horror and indignation.
Here and there public meetings will be
held at which the speakers will eloquently
denounce the czar and his band of sayages.
The speakers will be rewarded by applause
and the public win leave the meetings in
the proud conviction that they have re-
sponded to the call Of the unfortunate peo-
pie OF foreign land and thus discharged
their duty TO humanity. At the same time
the blood of the Russians will flow in wide
streams.
An Appeal for Help.
care we civilized people are we not?"
Gorky then asks He declares that he
thinks not, and that people who live quietly
when everything around them is soaked in
blood are simply satiated animals.
III such crying horrors occur as those
which we now witness in Russia he says.
"true men and women cannot remain quiet
at their sight"
He closed with an appeal for help for
Russia, and asked
Are there in this country living men, and
will they hear me?"

Mr.. G. F. Borah, Judge ad hoe

Mr.. @. F. Borah, judge ad hoe,
has rendered his decision in the
court house case. In his opinion
he refused the demand of the
plaintiffs, holding that the police
jury are the judges as to whether
or not the parish should have a
new court house or repair the old
one, and that as no fraud or abuse
OF power was either suggested or
proved, the determination of the
question was solely within the
discretionary power of that body
and could not be hindered by the
court. This case was tried on it's
merits, but an appeal will likely
be taken to the supreme court, and
If that body affirms the decision
just rendered, that will likely end
al controversy on this much dis
nssed question. Franklin
