REVOLUTION LEADER IS
FORMER new YORKER
Leon Trotzky Was Prominent in
Radical Circles on the East Side
Last Winter. .s
NV Associated Press.)

New York, Nov. 9.-Leon Trotzky,
president of the central executive
committee of the Petrograd council
of soldiers and workmen's delegates,
was the editor for a few months this
year Of The Novi Mir New World),
a Russian revolutionary paper pub
lished in this city. He arrived in
New York, Jan Is last, from Spain
and remained here until the over
throw Of the emperor, when he re-
turned to Russia. While here he was
prominent in radical circles on the
east side.
Persons who knew him in this city
declare that he established a news
paper in Russia more than fifteen
years ago and because of his revolu-
tionary tendencies, was often in jail.
He was sent to Siberia in 1905 and in
1912 for participation in revolution
ary plots. After his release the Sec
ond time he went to Berlin, where
he started a newspaper, but when
the war broke out, he was ordered to
leavs.
He lived short time in Switzer-
land, then went to Paris, and started
q newspaper advocating peace. The
Russian ambassador had his paper
suppressed and he fed to Spain,
where he was promptly thrown into
prison. After his release he came to
the United States with his wife and
two sons. The immigration authori-
ties permitted him to land when he
declared that he was not revolu
ZIONIST but a disciple OF Karl Marx
and desired to bring concord among
the nations.

designated as German vice chancel-
Tor, according to a semi Official tele-
gram received here from Berlin. II
adds that the appointment of Herr

Prussian state ministry, is considered
probable.
There have been frequent reports
during the last few days from Lon

TO whether Herren Won Payer and
Friedberg would be appointed to the

ported that Chancellor Won Hertling
would not designate anyone for the
vice chancellorship, but would leave
the office vacant.

FEW SUPPORTERS
OF ANNEXATIONS
Proposed Settlement of
Eastern Problem Bitter
ly Attacked in Germany
(By Associated Press.)

Copenhagen, Nov. 9.-The proposed
settlement of the eastern problem by
annexing Poland to Austria Hungary
and Courland and Lithuania to Ger
many has few friends in Germany,
aside from the proponents of the idea.
Virtually the entire press opposes it.
The Conservative and Nationalist or
gans are against it because they fear
the effect of such a step upon their
own anti-Polish policy in regard to
the Polish provinces of Prussia. The
Liberal and Socialist newspapers are
indignant at the attempt to decide a
question involving the whole future
of Germany behind the back Of the
reichstag, and also resent the efforts
to overturn the anti annexation peace
policy set forth in the reichstag reso-
tuition.
The Socialist organ, Vorwaerts, of
Berlin, declares that this adoption of
an annexationist policy in the most
irretrievable form puts in the shade
the crisis regarding the chancellor
ship and all other developments of
the day. 1t reminds the government
that the Hapsburg monarchy, two
parts Of which are absolutely non
German, while in the third the Ger
man element has a hard struggle to
retain its influence, may at no distant
time become a military danger to
Germany.

NO DEMAND FOR QUACK
GRASS ROOTS.-,BOLLEY
5otanist Declares Investigation Fails
to Disclose Any Firm Paying
For Them.
To The Editor:

10 Tne EDITOR: <ea e.
There was lately running in the
Fargo papers a notice to the effect
that there was a firm somewhere in
Minnesota which was engaged in the
purchase of dried underground stems
Of quackgrass. BY oversight of the
writer of the article no address OF
the Arm engaged in the purchase of
quackgrass stems or root stalks was
given. The result is that a very
large number of letters are coming
to the experiment station asking
specifically how to get in touch with
this firm which claims to be in posi-.
ton to buy and handle the under-t
ground stems OF the quackgrass for
medicinal purposes. After a good deal
of inquiry it has not been possible
to locate the address of such firm
Those interested in the matter will
kindly take this as an answer to the
many letters which are coming to the
department of botany of the North
Dakota Agricultural college regard
ing this matter.
