The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1917-06-09

AL Jolson has a part greatly to his
liking in "FTriday." He makes his
first appearance as a chauffeur, who
accompanies his millionaire employer
on dream visit to the island home of
Robinson Crusoe. Friday, as might
be expected" is a droll, worthless sort
of character, with strong penchant
for getting into trouble even in such
an out of the way place. Cannibals,
pirates, sprites and weird animals and
reptiles aid and abet him in this, af-
fording a decidedly spectacular back
ground.

A FIRMER RUSSIA.

One good result of General Korni-
offs revolt that was not a revolt
seems to have been the strengthens
in Of the government and the weak
ening of the Bolsheviki. 1t has been
fairly well established that Korniloff
acted not against Kerensky, but in his
behalf Korniloff had heard that the
BClsheviki were plotting to seize the
government. He thereupon prepared
to concentrate troops in Petrograd to
defend the government against them
Then came Vladimir Lvoff to ask
KOrnilOff, on the part of Kerensky,
about the reorganization Of the gov
eminent. Korniloff declared in favor
of a dictatorship. inasmuch as | had
pointed out the necessity of partici-
patton in the government by Keren-
sky and Savinkoff director of the
ministry of war;" Lvoff carried back
wCrd, either by mistake or intention,
that Korniloff was planning to make
himself dictator. The preparations.
for the movement of troops TO Petro-
grad lent color to the report.
The reply Of kerensky to the word
carried back by Lyof was to order
Kornilof to resign as head of the
army. Korniioff, knowing the danger
in which the government stood from
the Bolsheyiki, and having fair evil
dence to make him believe that Ker-
ensky and Savinkoff were false to
Russia and her allies, refused to give
up his command. Only too late did
he learn that ne had been made the
victim Of a traitor

by the allie, and will try to restore
the fighting power of the Russian

At about the time that Ademiral

umph over England through the 1

was drawing up his resignation-a

men in the German navy had revolt

BIG AIRPlANES.

In the general emphasis on the mil
itary operations on the western front
the spectaeularly huge airplane which
the Italians are using in their Aus
trian offensive has been overlooked.
This plane is called the Caproni, and
during the latter part of September
members of the Royal Flying corps
Of Italy demonstrated the machine in
a practice fight from Langley field
to Washington. On that occasion ten
men were carried, the idea being to
demonstrate what Italy can do in
the big airplanes in which she has
specialized.
The Germans, too, are turning to
the larger type of plane. The Gotha,
which has been used i'll most of the
raids on England, carries three air
men and three machine guns so
mounted that the under the tall
osition-formerly the one first OBJ
ject of every f1yer-not only has lost
all it's advantage, but is a definite han
dicap to the man attaining it. The
largeness of the attacking planes is
one OF the reasons why the British
have made such a poor showing in
their air defense. 1t has been OF
fciaTy stated that the ordinary type
of warplane that is being used on the
Anglo-French front is not match
for the raiding Gotha when pitted
against it singly. Presumably the
former hesitancy on the part of the
British government to announce pro
gram of retaliation was dictated TO
some extent by a knowledge OF the
handicap under which British war
planes must make punitive raids over
German territory.
The Italian airmen gave their dem
onstration in this country chiefly to
draw attention to Italy's needs for
spruce timber, motor and airplane
parts. They hope to induce the Unit
ed States to include the furnishing of
these essentials to the general war
program so that in the spring the of
fensive against Austria may be resum-
ed with the attackers well supplied
with the biggest airplanes in use on
any front.
The large airplane has the double
advantag of not only being the best
for war uses, but Of being another
step toward the commercial utilization
of the air in peace time. It is much
better fitted for making the spectacu-
lar advances in aerial science attain

GOLD HILL VOTES
FOR IRRIGATION
up-dver irrigation system I,onds
Approved by Vote Of Four to One.
Helps Grants Pass District

The land owners under the Rogue
River Irrigation district yesterday
voted on proposition OF bonding
the district at the rate OF $50 per
acre for a fund TO complete their
irrigation project. The result OF the
vote was ~ In favor and six against.
This result means much to Grants
Pass and especially the land owners
under the Grants Pass Irrigation
district. because OF the fact that the
two districts are planning TO build
practically one system to serve both
sections. II now remains only for
the land owners under the Grants
Pass district to approve the proposed
bond issue and the means will be at
hand to complete the entire system
and put something like 5000 acres
under irrigation probably during
next season.
The vote at Gold Hill being four
to one In favor OF the bond issue is
indicative OF the general realization
which is coming to the land owners
OF southern Oregon. that bringing
water to the lands OF this section
is an immensely desirable piece Of
improvement. Talent recently FORM
