POLES MENACE CAR
Ten Million Of Them In Russia
Hate the Government.
Have Been Forced TO Surrender Their
Nationality, While In Austria and
Germany They Were De-
Gently Treated.

- -
Russia does not present an unbroken
front TO Austrian or German arms.
There can be little doubt that the
most restless element in that vast en-
pire Is made up Of the ten million or
more Poles who have been forced to
surrender their liberties, their Ian
guage and their nationality to the
government in st. Petersburg.
On the other hand, 100000 Poles
within the boundaries OF Austria-Hun-
gary are expected to give whole
souled support to Emperor Francis
Joseph, out OF gratitude for the en-
lightened policy pursued by his gov
eminent with respect to that people.
The spectacle OF the Poles of Russo
rising against the St Petersburg gov
eminent and joining In sympathy with
the Austrians will be a natural result
of the treatment the ten million have
received as subjects of the car.
Russians and Poles, although both
Of the Slavic race, have nothing in
common politically. Antagonist be-
tween them has been handed down
through the centuries, and It did not
die out but famed higher after the
smaller nation had been dismembered
and absorbed in part by Russia.
Russia denies her Polish subjects
everything that savors of preferment
in military and political life, although
they come Of a fierce race, ambitious
to rule. She attempts to force the
Russian language on the Poles. In
this she has succeeded in large meas.
ure, although the Poles cling tena-
ciously to their ancient tongue and
their traditions.
The Poles Of Russia are ardent revO-
lutionists. It is said The conserva.
tives belong to the National league,
which is described as an organiza-
ton to conserve patriotism, and the
radicals are to be found in the ranks
of the Socialist party.
Germany's policy toward the Poles
within her gates has not been pur-
sued with the ruthless severity Of
Russia. The Prussian effort to "dena.
tionalize" the Pole in the Fatherland
is not calculated to make the Poles
love their rules, but little blood has
been shed in the last sixty years
There appears to be no disposition on
the part of the Poles in Germany to
rise against the government.
The Poles living in Austria-the
third nation that aided in the dismem.
berment-have been permitted to rule
themselves, to all intents and pur'
poses In Galicia the Poles have. OBJ.

0LD-TlME FRIENDS AT WAR
Four Of the Nations Involved Have
Been at Peace With One An
other for Century.

Germany and Russia have been at
peace more than a century. They
were the first great powers to declare
war on each other. Germany and
Great Britain have been friends, Of
ficially.. since Napoleon's efforts to
place the whole continent in a state of
hostility against England. Now Ger
many and the United Kingdom are
about to begin fighting.
Great Britain and Austria-Hungary
have been on good terms for hun
dred years. They never. have clashed
over colonies or trade. They have no
reason for enmity, but their alliances
and obligations make them foes,
against the win Of their governments
and their people,

Warning Royal Folk of
Europe Closely Related

Kaiser Wilhelm is a grandson
Of Queen Victoria. His mother
was the British Queens eldest
daughter and bore her mothers
name.
The Car Nicholas is married
to a granddaughter of Queen
Victoria. His wife's mother was
the queens second daughter
and third child. the Princess
Alice Maud Mary, who married
the Grand Duke of Hesse, a
German state. One of the
younger daughters of the Grand
Duke of Hesse and his English
wife was the Princess Alix. She
is the czarina.
The mother of the car was
the Princess Dagmar of Den
mark. One of her sisters was
Queen of England during the
reign of Edward VII. Ex.Queen
Alexandra of Great Britain aud
the Dowager Empress Dagmar
of Russia are sisters.
For many generations the
Russian royal family has be-
come more and more German in
blood through a long series Of
marriages between its grand
dukes and German princesses.
The Romanoffs are as German
now, in that respect. as their
kinsmen, the HohenzOllerns,
who reign in Berlin.
1t is a fine family miXup

jority of the populations of Germany,
England and France are opposed to
this war. The kaiser emphatically
does not want war And yet, the war
is raging. Let some keener mind
solve the grewsome riddle. If were
to guess an answer to it, l would say
RUSSIA fight between the highly
civilized nations fomented by the mis-
cradle intrigues of a petty Balkan
state. Russia has yet to make her
first substantial offering on the altar
of human progress.
A thousand times rather would !
prefer to see the organization and
genius of the Teutonic races regulate
the continent Of Europe than to per-
nit the autocracy of the Romanoffs
to extend it's sway by a single prov
ince. My heart aches to see the Ger
man national life, fostered with such
loving care for so many years, made
the stake in a war brought about by
! the inflated ambitions of the Russian
Slav.
To shut down the laboratories and
clinics and deprive the German gen
ius of it's opportunity for furthering
science is alone a crime crying to
heaven for vengeance.
War deals in human life as reck-
lessly as the gambler in money. I'm
agine the point of view of a com.
manding general who is confronted
with the task of taking a fortress
That position will cost him 5000
lives; it will be cheap at the price;
for it must be taken.
He discounts 5000 human lives as
easily as the manufacturer marks of
5000 for depreciation. And so 5000
homes are saddened that another fae
may fly over "a few feet of fortified
masonry. What a grim joke for Eu
rope to play upon humanity!
l feel sure every American will
join in the hope of an early and last

Preliminary returns show that 50 per
cent of the Republican vote was poll
ed while not ever As per cent Of the
Progressive party vote showed up.
There was al encouraging increase
in the Republican registration, which
is giving the leaders of that state
every reason to hope for an old-time
majority this fall.
Capt. John D. Fredericks has been
nominated to oppose Hiram Johnson,
the Bull Moose candidate and present
incumbent. California is going
through the same experiences as 9th

the most nexible systems in any
of the states. There seems to
be considerable discomfort over its
operation. Progressives, through q
vicious clause in the law, have beer

Italy, 1,343,0 7O; Ireland. ~1,352,155.

Der shop. His face was also burned.
Mr.. Pilski has been having a few
repairs made at the barber shop and
some Of the electric lights fixed. The
work was not quite completed and
the downstairs lights were turned of.
He had to use the gasoline stove in
the basement, however, and started
to light it in the dark. Some gaso-
line escaped and the match when
lighted set it on fire, causing the ex-
plosion.
Outside Of the injuries to Mr.. Pill
ski and the breaking Of a window
very little damage was done. Prob.
