Attitude of Empress.

"The most interesting personality
OF the old regime was certainly the
Empress. The Emperor was thor
oughly antiGerman. Probably the
Empress was snti-ally and pro-Ger-
man, not so much out OF love for the
Germans as because she believed Il
was her mission to maintain absolute
monarchy in Russia for tho sake uf
her husband and her son. She thought
Germany much less lanL erous in this
respect than England. She would say
that the Gernans must be 'chastis"d,'
but she was ready to cede Il certain
amount Of territory to them II she
could secure thereby an early peace
and save absolutism.
"The revolution naturally has been
attended by some wavering and un-
certainty. The Duma and the provis-
ionaI government are still seeking
the right path. but their influence Is
growing every day. Within two
months, when the constituent assem-
bly, is likely to get together, the out
look should be clearer and the post
tion consolidated. The extremist sec
tion of the Committee of Workmen
and Soldiers may cause trouble, but
the bulk of the workmen are thor
oughly patriotic and clear sighted.
They answer the extremist proposals
by saying, we will listen to you after
the war They know the war must
be won and .Ha Germans beaten II
their libertie' - be assured.
THE same to the men in the
trenches. Ma. Iiers said to me,
Now we can go bayonet the Ger
mans without feeling some one pull
ing us back The army at the front
has been REINFORCED by some 10000
ex-agents Of police. They are mostly
sturdy. courageous fellows, who had
been the tools of the old regime. The
secret police system that was the
bane OF Russia has been swept away"

Mr.. Post still nj Large

1t was more than three weeks ago
that Theodore Post and Manford Cal
way escaped from the county Jail.
Manford Immediately returned TO de-
wise plans for another escape but Mr..
Post is still at large, Thus far the
authorities have found no trace of the
young man and all diligent effort has
been unrewarded
Many stories have been circulated
to the effect that he had been seen
in various places. 1t was reported
that on the very evening of his es-
cape he talked with a citizen of the
town, who met him near the log piles.
Another narrative, which seems not
to be without foundation is to the
effect that Skowhegan party met
Post on the highway between Win
throp and Augusta and gave him a
ride to the Capitol city
1t appears that the young man has
made a clean get away but he has
many friends back here who hope
that he may return.
