Sees No Sign of Peace.

On the occasion of the third anniversary
of the commencement of the war between
Russia and Germany the official news
paper, The Army and Fleet of Free Rus
STA, says no sign is visible either of a
military solution of the situation or of a
reconciliation between the opponents.
Summarizing the last twelve months
events. the newspaper asserts that Ru-
mania's defeat was the first undoubted
proof that victory by the allies was at
tainable only by indefatigable and stimuli
taneous operations on all the fronts.
This lesson was taken to heart" the
newspaper adds, land, considering Ger
many's failure in 1916 at Verdun and on
the Somme and her defeats by Gen.
Brussiloff. there seemed to be an excel
lent prospect for a decisive success in
1917 The events following the Russian
revolution are the cause of the present
disappointment.
The enemy has not hesitated to re-
sort to any means which would enable
him to take advantage OF the back
wardness of the mass of the Russian
soldiers and their susceptibility to in
citement by agitators. the result of
which was the fraterniZing between the
trenches and serious Russian defeats.
The cause of the entente has been
saved from disaster only through the
heroism and self-sacrifice Of Great Brit
ain and France"

the allied forces from Old Greece, Thes-
sally and Epiris. IN accordance with the
decision Of the Balkan conference AT
Paris. rs being rapidly carried out The
last Franco-Brltish troops left Pireaus
Monday. The withdrawal from Corinth
and other occupied points was preyi-
ously executed. The Italians are SINH
larry preparing to leave Janina and
other sections OF Piraeus, retaining only
a small triangle near Aviona, in AL
bania.
The unanimity of the allied action is
a source of satisfaction, as the Italian
aspiration desired a wider field, but
yielded in the interest of the united
action to withdraw all and leave Greece
to the Greeks.
Preparations are under way TO call

REVOLT LEADERS ISSUE
CALL TO SAVE RUSSIA
All Elements Are Urged to Rally
Around the Provisional
Government.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PETROGRAD, August 1.-The old
guard of the revolutionaries. including
George Pleknahoff, Nicholas Tschal-
kovsky, Catherine BreshkovsEaya and
Vera Zassulitch, have issued ringing
appeal to all citizens to rally round the
provisional government and save the
revolution and country from mortal
danger.
Negotiations for strengthening the
cabinet with constitutional democratic
ministers are threatened with a break
down, owing to difficulties with the So
calists as to the future role they Will
play in the council of deputies and also
on the question of Premier kerensky's
program of reforms.
A letter addressed to Premier kcrcn-
sky by three constitutional democratic
candidates for ministerial posts de-
clares categorically that the cabinet
must not be interfered with by outside
organizations. to which the newspaper
Isbestiya CisuStiya, the organ of the
councils, has replied, declaring that NJ.
Kerensky will not consent to any dimi-
mutton in the Importance of the coun-
ellis, a otherwise no preventative of
the revolutionary democracy could re-
main in the cabinet.

To Restore Power Of Army.

The newspaper proceeds to expound
Russa's program for the fourth year
of the war. which it says consists of a
restoration of the almy's power by the
following measures:
First, clear definition of the limits
of Russia's present liberty. the limits
to correspond to the backwardness of
the population and the army
Second, the taking of the severest
and most merciless measures for re-
esta blshing military discipline, disre-
garding the criticism of irresponsible
persons
Third, the restoration of the shaken
authority of Russia's most disinterest-
ed and self-sacrificing servants, her
officers"
In the army and among the civilian
population. says the newspaper, are
sufficient healthy and patriotic elements
to encourage the hope of speedy re-
establishment of the country's military
strength.

Analysis of Situation.


The article states:
THE fact is that the Austrian govern
ment is supported solely by the German
minority of the Hapsburg subjects. and
even in this element will stand back of
Emperor Charles only in so far as he
stands back of Germany" The attitude
of the rest of the people, it is stated. is
best expressed in the public pronuncia-
mentos of the Czech people. which led to
the Imprisonment of the deputies. and
which. it is stated. ARE correctly classed
by the Austrian government. by Germans
and Maygars, as demands for the dis
memberment of Austria Hungary"
The present situation of affairs in
Austria, it is stated, really amounts
to a revolution, even if a bloodless one.
No other kind is possible. In Bohemia
90 per cent of men between the ages of
seventeen and fifty-five are in the
army. Bohemian workingmen, like Bel
CLANS, have been deported in thousands
to work. IL ether Austrian lands, and
the women, the children and the old
men. without arms, cannot make an
armed rebellion. If. Notwithstanding
.,ll this, there have been great riots in
Bohemian and lIoravian cities. it is the
final proof of the firm will of the
Czechs to break away from Austria
forever"

Division in Parliament.

The article calls attention to the fact
that the Austrian parliament recently ap-
proved the war budget submitted by the
government. 1t is stated that out of SO
deputies OF the Vienna reiChsrat, so took
no part III the sittings; that out of 105
Bohemian deputies. 10 We're not present :
that the Poles, with so deputies, refrained
from responding on the final vote; that
against the budget voted the Czechs, the
JugosIavs (the latter including the Ser
bians, the Croatiaus ana the Slovenians),
Rumanians and Italians. and that the

q numerically larger population than that

1T would seem at first sight" the
article states, that the Representatives
of the races Of Austria voted confidence
in the government" abiding to the
fact that the war budget was passed.
But, the article says. the above analysis
shows a different conclusion.
Mr.. Tvrzcicky points out that the
leader of the Independent Czech depu-
ties, Prof. Masaryk, is in exile, con-
demned to death in his absence. Three
leaders Of the Czech delegation, in
Guiding the chairman of the United
Bohemian Club. are in Jail charged with
high treason. The names of still others
under arrest or sentence are mentioned
with the fact that Deputy Fresl has
committed suicide in Jail.

SNEEzlNG ONCE FATAL SIGN
Superstition Was the Origin Of
Phrase, "God Bless You'll" Still
Heard in Europe.

Sneezing from very remote times
has been regarded with superstition.
Our forefathers went to bed again IL
they sneezed while putting on their
shoes. A sneeze to the right was
deemed lucky; to the left, Of evil por-
tent. To sneeze near a burial place
was very unlucky, says the London
Telegraph.
Tradition has it that sneezing was
at first fatal sign-every human be-
ing sneezed but once and then died
but Jacob petitioned the Creator to
remove the sneezing ban and succeed
ed. Thence arose the once universal
custom of saluting a sneezer with
God bless your or MAY you live
longw The custom still obtains In
some parts of Europe.
In England not only was n sneezer
blessed, but friends raised their hats
to him as well. In an old book, "The
Code of Conduct" 1t is directed that
IF his lordship sneezes We are not to
bawl out God bless your but bow to
him handsomely" All over the world
the sneeze was recognized. Whole
nations were under orders to make ex-
carnations when their king sneezed.
Sneezing was believed to be sure
cure for hiccups and was also looked
upon as sign Of sanity. II ancient
and universal belief goes for anything
1t is good to sneeze.

MILK ONLY IN
 FAIR CONTESTS

It has been thought best to change the specifications heretofore an nounced in the premium list of the state fair and in the daily papers, concerning the milk and cream con test for which the health department of the city has offered two $25 silver cups.
 Due to the fact that under present conditions so many milk dealers are not delivering cream at all, it was decided to eliminate the cream from the running and offer the two silVef cups for the best grade A milk and the best grade B milk.
 Announcement of the manner of conducting the contest during fair week will be made later. The cups to be given may be seen today in the show window of Hege 6 Co.,, to- gether with a general window display of state fair premium cups that Hege & Co. have engraved.
