Rank and File Not Misled

These soldiers committees, one in
each regiment" said Mr. Sack, will
see 70 e that the rank and file are not
misled by false statements cmanating
from the forces behind kornilOf.'
Russia, said Mr. Sack, wanted above
all three things order in the country,
success at the front and preservation
Of the gains Of the revolution.
"Kornilof." he added, "by his blood
and iron methods, may be able to give
Russia the first two. kerensky can as
sure all three. believe that korni-
lofts move has reestabished keren-
sky's reputation as revolutionary
leader. Even :he Bolshev!ki-t Max
imslists behind Kerensky in the
present crisis. Kornilotf's move, there
fore, will result in the reunion OF the
entire Russian democracy and place the
great majority of the armed forces OF
the nation behind Kerensky. korni-
lofts move, if successful, would en-
danger the fruits of the revolution. All
the generals must at all times remain
under the control of the Provisional
Government. Otherwise we shall have
the old regime reinstated in Russia to-
morrow
Details Of the recent visit OF Keren-
sky 10 Moscow, which is being men
toned as the possible capital OF Russia
since Petrograd has been menaced by
the Germans, were received here to-
day.
Chernov, the leader Of the Russian
peasants. warmly received Kerensky,
and the president of the Moscow Coun-
Gil Of Soldiers Delegates welcomed the
young leader on behalf of the soldiers,
saying:
I'VE, the chosen representatives OF
the soldiers OF Moscow. are glad 10 tell
you that the Moscow garrison trusts
you as IT'S leader and comrade. The
Moscow troops are going TO fulfil their
duty toward the Russian people, their
country and the cause Of liberty. Your
faith in the soldier Is ample assurance
that the army is still alive. Long live
our comrade, Secretary kcrensky!"
Replying, Kerensky said in part:
Certainly, tho army is still alive.
All that until now has been hindering
the army in its organization has been
lust q disease from which the army ls
bound 20 recover The army, organ
lied, will be the strongest bulwark OF
the revolution. Long live the reyolu-
tionary army in Russia"
And that night, in one Cf Moscow
theatres. Kerensky said:
Comrades and fellow citizens: We
are all enthusiastic when We arc %
gether. know that deep down IN your
hearts, in the hearts o. many, there
are fear and doubt. The enthusiasm
springs from the consciousness tina.
New Russia, born IN liberty, will never
die; that the struggle with monarchy
is ended forever, that no power on
earth can take liberty away from the
people who have freed themselves, and
nobody can block the great drive OF the
creative forces OF a free people.
while rejoicing over this, we at the
same time realize that our country Is
living through Il period of storm and
stress. a period OF acute suffering
Comrades, was there ever a people
who secured their right TO liberty
without suffering and martyrdom?
Every nation had 20 wade through
streams OF blood and tears. We shall
be happy 70 die knowing that VIC are
laying down our lives Tor great ideals.
for the future happiness Of Russia

In that triumph I have absolute and

Early to-day all reports indicated
that Kornilof was gaining the upper
rand in the conflict with the govern

lorted as approaching TO within thirty

svowed intention Of seizing control Of
the government.
They occupied Writza, on the Pe,ro-

 How the president can expect to continue his peace propaganda in the face of the charge by the allies that he is playing into the hands of Emperor William is not ap parent, unless, have already mentioned, he has up his Sleave.
 To bring about peace is laudable endeavor but to do it in such manner such time that either side in the present world would merely start in getting ready to fight again would be wrong
 Germany has evidently come to the conclusion that she cannot bring the war definite end and that more fighting useless although she is convinced that she can fight on for years.
 The Allies the other hand are convinced that Ger many be smashed within short time and they pro- pose to do 1t for fear of future strife.
 One rift in the cloud comes from the labor confer ence at Manchester England, which endorses Wilson's world peace plan and asks British representatives to aid This indicates that the workers see the futty of this war but eniSmenS continue and until the opposition to fighting on far stronger than at present peace seems out of the question.
 World peace plans are me but we should be careful about how we try to force them Europe unUi after this war is over.

 to sell on commission the coming season.
 We have to send out seeds the latter part of

 the next June. We trust you will keep the seeds
 on sale and sell as many as you can of them next

 Doesn't that jar you? No wonder that the tlanspor- ation companies eXertng themselves to bring tour StS to Alaska and let them know their country before they visit foreign countries.
 If we were to institute inquiry the chances are that would find that this same Down East merchant is preparing to take trip abroad next summer to take the rust off of him and get little educaon when matter of fact he knows nothing of the country he lives in That must think that Alaska is mush- rOOm that Kechkan is Far0ankS when the truth is that Ketchikan is to Fairbanks than Chicago is to San Francisco with much difference in the climate if not more Obviously Eastern States should have night school for the merchants with Alaska as educators and law compelling them to attend They are so doggone rusty that are ashamed of them. - Ketchkan Pro- greSSive-Miner)
