Russian Extremists Beaten
By Kerensky In Congress

If the Petrograd Bolsaeyiki would
recognize that the congress was the
real organ Of free Russia they would be
repudIsting them selves. The Bolshe-
wiki still believe ia the rights of the
majority.
But IL is next TO impossible to prove
10 them that they are in the minority
They called an all-Russian congress,
but when this congress proved anti
BOlshevIk they claimed II was not rep
Tesentatlye Of the majority. So they
fastened 20 call another congress.
IL may be confidently expected that
the next congress IF IL ever conyenes,
viii again demonstrate that the BOlshe-
wiki are In the minority. The great
opportunity Of the Bolsheviki is gone
unless another counter revolution
breaks out. Russia has declared her
self for moderation. sane government,
national unity and internal peace. And
the disturbing BolSheviki will hence
forth ind their path strewn with more
thOrns and greater obstacles than ever.
There are three outstanding phases
of the Russian situation to-day. The
first is the fact that the cardinal issue
of the struggle between kerenSky and
the extremists has been solved in favor
of the former. This issue was the Ques-
tion of coalition government. Il ap-
pears from the PetrOgrad news that ne
CCtiatiOns still continue for the fOrma-
ton Of a coalition ministry. But the
fact that five representatives Of the
Democratic Congress are partIci pating
in such negotiations is in itself a great
victory for kerensky.
The second phase is the factor which
makes kerensky's victory incomplete.
u is the setting up of the preliminary
parliament of 3O5, chosen by the demo
cratic congress, 20 check up the &C
Invites of the Provisional Government.
Much depends on the prerogativeS OF
the parliament Conflicts are likely be
tween II and KerenSky's government
on the other hand. IL might prove of
value IN case the BolshevikIs new con-
gress should challenge the Provisional
Government. In that event the psrlIa-
ment would back Kerensky, and un-
doubtedly command the support OF the
nstion's majority.
The third phase is furnished by the
Bolsheyikl. They are IN the minority.
but that does moi eliminate them. The
Bolsheviki expected 10 take over the
government without resistance. They
failed They may. however. try TO do
+, bv force. That would mean blood
shed. Ii is certain that the Bolshevikl
won't reform so soon. IL is also GER
tain that they will continue their de
Structive activities. although greatly
Handicapped.
The defeat Of the Bolsheviki cannot
be cons dered as their end. but under
q strong government their damaging
mower may be curtailed

tage over the man in the street is con-
siderable, for the word in itself signi-
fles large fighting force so complete

is what our marine corps is-a fully
equipped little army representing In
fantry, cavalry, artillery, signal serv-

ators and hospital service.
The varied nature of the marines
duties is reflected in the dress uniform,
his dearly priced "blues," writes
Charles Phelps Gushing in the New

of the infantryman's, but the stripe Is
red. like that on the uniform of the
artillery. His coat is a dark nautical

they are yellow, like a cavalryman's.
AS an example of cosmopolitanism, his
cap device bears q relief map of half

wings surmounts the globe and q
fouled anchor shows in the back
ground. To tell" a marine at a glance
(whatever his uniform or his rank)
look on the front of the hat or the
cap for that globe. 1t is the distin-
