Russian Officer Tells How Wolves
Devour Dead and Wounded
After Battles.

%Petrograd, Dec. 25.-The presence
of the wolf as a. new terror on the
battlefields of East Prussia and Pc.
land, is described in a letter sent by
a Russian officer to a Riga 1ewspa-
per.
Wounded in an engagement Which
had driven the Germans from their
trenches he found himself later to be
the only living soul left on the field
Of dead. Pulling himself together,
and leaning on his sword he walked
as best he could toward the supposed
shelter of his comrades in the woods.
Gust as l reached the edge of the
wood" he says, 81 stopped in terror.
From the distance there came the
bowling Of a, wolf. 1t sounded unut'
terably melancholy and dreadful in
the still autumn night. Another wolf
answered, in the same lo1g-draWn,
dismal note. The bowling drew near
er,% presently heard it ! ,around me,
without pause, growing louder and
more exultant every moment.
81 am no coward. I am a sports.
mar and have killed many wolves in
hunts, but what I heard that night
| never can forget. The chaotic howl
ing which enclosed me like a chain
kept coming closer and closer, draw
ing to the center of the circle where
| was standing.
~ saw clearly there was nc chance
of saving myself when the circle had
closed finally upon me. II went run
ning-how l managed it l don't know
towards some bushes a hundred
yards away. I reached them and
dropped to the ground. l was resolv-
ed to fight as long as | could. l had
my loaded revolver and my sword.
"The wolves came nearer, and their
bowling filled the night. Now they
were at the border of the wood. In
the darkness l could see dim shad-
oWs moving slowly between the trees.
LAS they came out OF the wood
from different directions they drew
together into one great dark hero
and stood thus for some minutes.
Then another wolf howled-and from
somewhere out on the battlefield, and
all at once the pack began to move.
| Without haste, in a little deliberate
trot, they went past me, past the
very clump of bushes where I was sit
ting with drawn revolver. Not n
turned toward me. I watched each
one as he went by, expecting that
he would spring at me. l don't know
how many there. were, but there were
very many-all trotting so quietly to
the field where the dead bodies were
lying.
II was mercifully allowed to- lapse
into Inconsistencies soon after. At
sunrise l was picked up, still uncon.
scious, by a Cossack patrol"

REFUTEs WoRsT's STATEMENT,

REFUTES WORST'S STATEMENT.
In yesterdays mail the editor of the
Tribune received a most timely letter
from Ralph w. Wheelock, member of
the Minnesota state board Of control,
and active at one time in Dakota pol
itics during territorial days.
President Worst speaks sighting
ly Of the success of the board of con
troll system. VIE have found no bet
ter answer than this excerpt from
Mr.. Wheelock's letter:
"As to the results by the board OF
control system since it's organization
fourteen years ago, there can be only
one verdict in the minds of all those
who are familiar with it's operations.
It has not only conserved the finan.
cial interests of the state by improv.
ed methods Of accounting, a closely
scrutinized system of purchases, and
closer cooperation in the administra-
tive departments of the several ilsti.
tutions, but it has ALSO improved the
personnel of the entire organization
through the operation of practical
civil service regulations, and has
brought about a spirit of cooperation
that has assured the best possible
results in the care and treatment of
the ten thousand state charges for
whose welfare it is responsible"
Mr.. Wheelock says further that it's
functions in cooperation with the uni.
versity have worked out very success
fully. The Minnesota board of con-
troll supervise all building construc-
ton in connection with the u%niversi-
ty.
The Tribune urges even greater adj
ministrative powers being invested in
the state oord Of control over the
financial management of the educat-
iional institutions than obtains in
Minnesota.
A board of regents, if created,
should have as ex.oficio members,
the Governor, Superintendent Of Pub
lie Instruction and the Attorney Gen
eral. This would place at least two
members of the state board of equal
izatiol in intimate contact with the
needs of the various institutions.

And all about was a silence, intense,
profound, the stolid resignation of
despair, the solemn Stiffness of the
death chamber, b~roken~only by the
tread and whispers of the attendants.
Rents in tattered, shell-torn uni
forms disclosed gaping wounds, some
of which had received a hasty dress
ing on the battlefield, while others
we're still raw and bleeding. There
were feet, still incased in their coarse
shoes, crushed into a mass like jelly;
from knees and elbows, that were as
if they had been smashed with a ham
mer, depended inert limbs. There
were broken hands, and fingers al
most severed, ready to drop, retained
only by a strip of skin.
Most numerous among the casual
ties yer the fractures; the poor arms
and legs, red and swollen, throbbed
~intolerably and we're heavy as lead.
There were yawning assures that laid
open the entire flank, the knotted Wis
cera were drawn into great hard
Jumps beneath the tight-drawn skin,
while as the effect of certain wounds |
the patient frothed at the mouth and
Writhed like an epileptic.
Here and there were cases where
the lungs had been penetrated, the
pUncture now so minute as to permit
no escape Of blood, again a wide, deep
oriice through which the red tide of
life escaped in torrents; and the in
ternal hemorThages, those that were
hid from sight, were the most terrible
in their effects, prostrating their vic
tim like a fash, making him black
in the face and delirious.
And finally the head more than any
other portion of the frame, gave evil
dence of hard treatment; a broken
jaw, the mouth a pulp of teeth and
bleeding tongue, an eye torn from it's
socket and exposed upon the cheek,
a cloven skull that showed the pal
pitating brain beneath.

American Rule For Americans

Grover Cleveland split his party up
the back when in power less than two
years because he was an Anglo-maniac
on the money question. The party
did not recover from it for twenty
years. Woodrow Wilson has split his
party again because he is all Anglo
maniac on commerce thru the Panama
canal. Both used the mighty power of
patronage of office to drive men to vote
against their party platforms, their
political belief and actions for years.
The speech of Champ Clark against
repeal of the Panama Canal toll bill
proves that a big mistake was made in
not nominating him for president in
1912.
His speech in Wednesdays daily
papers should be preserved because it
is not only one of the greatest orations
eve given in Congress but also one of
the most patriotic which beats true
not only to Washington's farewell adj
dress, but also to Jefferson's Declara-
ton of Independence.
Woodrow Wilson is proving himself
to be an Anglo-maniac, un.American
and a b~etrayer of his party platform.
After reading Champ Clark's speech
in Wednesdays papers, if you believe
it has the right ring, send a postal to
James E. MARITIME also to William
Hughes, U. S. Senate, Washington,
D. c.. asking them to vote against the
Panama toll repeal bill.
