Mr.. Leonard Dobts, tiagman on the
l.. & n. Railroad, on making u coupling
at Elizabeth on last Friday afternoon,
kicked at the coupling pin to make it
go down into the socket, when his foot
got caught between the bumpers, and
the train, backing at the time, mashed
his foot badly, breaking a bone, and
placing him in disabled condition.
That he escaped death under such a
perilous position is miraculous. He is
young man and we'll thought of, and
his misfortune is to be regretted.

Not only is it not to your advan-
you cannot do it conscientiously be-
fore God. To defend the old gov
ernment means to do what was done
recently in Odessa, Sevastopol, Kief
Riga, the Caucasus and Moscow, /.
e., to capture, kill, hang, burn alive,
execute, and shoot in the streets,
killing children and women. But to
Join the revolutionists means to do
the same: to kill people, throw
bombs. burn, rob, fight with soldiers,
execute and hang.
There fore laboring Christian peo-
pie, now that the cars government
calls on you to fight against your
brothers, and the revolutionists call
on you to do the same, you evidently
not for your own benefit alone, but
before GOD and your consciences,
must and should join neither the
old nor the new government and
take no part in the un-Christian do
ings either of the one or the other.
And not to take part in the doings
of the old government means not
to serve as soldiers. guards, con-
stables, town or country police; not
to serve in any government institu-
tons and offices, county councils

Not to take part in the doings of the
revolutionists means: not to form
meetings or unions, or to take part
in strikes; not to burn or wreck
other peoples houses, and not to
join any armed rebellion.
Two governments hostile to one
another now rule you, and they both
summon you to take part in cruel,
un-Christian deeds. What can you
do but reject all government?
People say that it is difficult and
even impossible to live without a
government, but you, Russian work

HARTMAN HILL
FIGHT ON THE
COAST

The withdrawal of the engineers
of the Union Pacific working be-
tween aeSttle and the Columbia riv-
er has created CONSERVATION among
real estate men on the Sound. 1t
was rumored that the Union Pacific
would not build to Seattle but would
use the Milwaukee terminals. The
reason given by railroad men for
the sudden withdrawal of the engi-
neers is that the fight between Har-
riman and Hill has been transferred
to the proposed liAe from Van
couver along the north bank to the
sea and north to Aberdeen. This
will be an extension of the north
bank line Hill is building from Ken
newick to Vancouver.
1t has been denied that this ex
tension Is proposed, but j. c. Bar
torn, formerly of the Union Pacific
is now surveying the route for the
Northern Pacific and Great North
ern. He is the authority for the
statement that Union Pacific engi
neers have lately been sent into the
district to combat his locations and
to survey a competing route for the
Hartman system. The matter OF
route there depends to some extent
on first locations. just as it did
along the upper bank of the Co
lumbia.

You, Russian working people,

1t was for you to live with little
land and large taxes and customs
duties and wars, which the govern
ment devised, you lived, till quite
that it was impossible to live with

However badly the cars govern

only one government. But now,
when it has come about that a part
of the people has rebelled, and,
ceasng to obey the cars govern
ment, has begun to fight against it;
when In many places instead of one
government there are two, each of
them demanding obedience, you can
no longer humbly submit to the
powers that be, without considering
whether the government rules you
well or i'll; but you have to choose
which of the two you will submit
to.
