"SABOT.AGE"

Sabotage, as practiced by the kais- CT in his violation of American neu- trality for nearly three years. is term which explains. scores of incl dents which occurred in various parts of the country but which seemed all ways to vanish into thin air when thy were investigated. The kaiser did not desre that his agent pull any rough stuff" but ordered them to do whatever they could to injure his ene- mics. without actually killing Ameri- cans and rousing the wrath of the American people.
 Former ambassadors official cor respondence, in the hands of the Am erican officials, is proof of the brutal Prussian doctrine that necessity knows no law" A system of sabotage, by which intuition making was ham, pered at every point. through strikes, through "break downs" in machinery, and even through "accidentaP explo- sions. was carried on under the di- rection of the Germany embassy at Washington The German government was adroit enough to order its agents not to wreck or undermine railroad embankments lest an investigation of the trouble bring about unpleasant revelations. It was a cunning scheme but it was a gross insult to the Uni ted States.
 The word sabotage came from Ger many. During the peasants war eight or nine centuries ago, the poor peo- pie, who rose up against the bishops and nobles, carried a sabot, or wood- en shoe, on the top of pole as their standard. Sabotage in the modern sense is associated principally with the syndicalists and direct actionists who try to defeat capital" by every device short of murder. As worthy associates of the I. w. w. whom they financed, the German autocrats have employed the I. w. w. methods in this country.
 A terrible indictment of the Ger man governments persistent under hand attacks on the United States when it was at peace with us, has been drawn up by the American state department from official German rec ords; yet it occasions little surprise in this country that nation which would make war on women and chill dren is capable of undermining a friendly neutral.

SECRETARY LANE GIVES VIEWS
Says Ample Transportation Will be Provided for Getting Coal to
 Tide Water This Year

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. e. Secretary Lane, in a letter to Sem ator McNary. said the reason the big operators were slow to invest in the Matanuska coal fields is because they have doubts whether Alaska coal can compete with the coal of the Pacific Coast states or compete with Calif- ornia oil. He said that if plans mater ialize that the government will have provided ample transportation from Matanuska to tide water before the close of the season.

THE RUSSIAN BOLsHEVIKI

The main thorn in the side of the Kerensky government in Russia is not the German but the "Bolsheviki. Immediately following the revolu- tion little was heard of this group of radicals because it possessed no par ticular power. but it has gained strength during the past few months and now controls the councils of workmen's and soldiers delegates of both Petrograd and Moscow.
 The term Bolsheviki was used for the first time in 1903, when the Rus sian social-democratic party split in two and the majority. led by Lenine. the radical who was banished from Russia for a time by the Kerensky regime, accepted this name. The meaning of the word, which is Rus sian, is "the majority" The Russian information bureau in New York
 points out that until the present war the Bolsheviki, including Lenine, re- ally represented a part of the Rus sian social-democratic party and could
 be recognized as socialists of the Mar xiam school differing from other Rus sian social-democrats only on ques-
 tions of tactics.
 Lenine and his following have been
 changed remarkably by the war. The Russian government claims to have information that Lenine was in the pay of the German staff. When the arch radical reached Petrograd and
 made his first speech prominent Rus
 sian socialists told him the point of
 view he represented was not social ism but "anarchistic deology." The
 Bolsheviki are anarchists. in prac- tice if not in theory, and this, it is
 asserted, accounts for the growth of their power in a country just emerg- ing from tyrannical monarchy. The writer for the Russian informa- tion bureau says that Kerensky is not less socialistic than Lenine, and that
 vital difference between them is that Lenine would establish socialistic state immediately while Kerensky sees the follow of such policy in the face of a foreign war. The Bolsheviki are the knd of revolutionists who dis credit the revolution more than any counter revolutionists.
 That a clash between Kerensky and the Bolsheviki will come is now pre-
 dicted. and unless the hyper-radicals are eliminated disorder will follow and the fruits of the revolution will
 be lost. The hope of the situation is
 in Kerensky's appointment of coali-
 tion cabinet representing at least S5 per cent of the people.

GERMANS SHOT FOR
 REFUSING DUTY ON SUBS

LONDON, Oct. 26.-Reliable re- ports received here by way of Hol- land indicate the growth of a strong disinclination on the part of German seamen to serve on submarines. This news, the authenticity of which is not doubted, is to the effect that sev- eral seamen already have been shot for refusing to perform U-boat duty. The shootings are said to have occur red prior to the mutiny in Wilhelms- haven.

TO CHURCH SUNDAY January 2S.
After a house to house campaign had
been made and more than 900 homes
visited and over 900 enrolled for the
different Sabbath schools, the results
cannot be estimated; the churches re-
ported an increase of both church and
Sunday school attendance.
The workers are interested in the
young people and have endeavored to
awaken the parent to the sense OF
their duty in sending their children to
the Sunday school. There are more
than $4,000 Colored people in Kansas
City, $3.50 girls, 5000 boys attending
public school. Think of it! 1856 Col
ored children and less than 1000 in
Sunday school! The gospel was car
ried into all the homes by the inter
ested and earnest workers in an en-
deavor to save the parent in order to
save the child. May God bless the
workers. Lift up your eyes and look
on the fields, for they are white, al
ready to harvest. Truly the harvest
is ripe but the laborers are few"
