FOES PERIL RUSSIANS
SLAVS WARNED OF DANGER BY
NEW GOVERNMENT.
Petrograd Declares Expansion Idea
Has Been kbandoned-To Fight
for Liberty.

Petrograd, April 11.-The provision
al government has issued a lengthy
proclamation directing attention to
the grave danger Of a German effort
to deliver Adhesive blow at Russia
and the necessity of Immediately con-
centrating all of Russia's forces for
the defeat of the enemy.
Russia has renounced all idea of ter
ritorial expansion, according to a
statement Of Minister of Justice Ker-
ensky.
The proclamation issued by the Rus
sian provisional government reads:
Having examined the military situ-
alton the Russian government in the
name of duty and country has decided
to tell the people directly and openly
the whole truth.
''The regime wlsch now has been
overthrown left the defense OF the
country in a badly disorganized condi-
ton BY its culpable inaction and its
inept measures it introduced disorgan-
ization into our finances, into provi-
sioning and Che TRANSPORT and supply
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1917-04-12


The provisional government with
the active cooperation of the whole
nation will devote all its energies to
repair the serious consequences of the
old regime. The blood of many sons
of the fatherland mas been shed free
ly in the course of these two and
half years of war, but the country still
is capable of a powerful blow at the
enemy who occupies whole territories
of our state and is nOW-in the days of
birth Of Russian Notwithstanding
us with Il new ais decisIs uSfas.s~
''The government deems it to be its
right duty to declare now that free
Russia does not aim at the dOmina
ton of other nations, at depriying
them to their national patrimony or at
occupying by force foreign territories,
but that its object is to establish
durable peace on rights of nations to
decide their own destiny.
''The Russian nation does not lust
after the strengthening Of it's power
abroad at the expense of other nations.
Its aim is not to subjugate or huInil-
late anyone. In the name of the high
err principles of equity, it has removed
the chains which weighed upon the
Polish people. But the Russian ma
ton will not allow it's fatherland to
come out of the great struggle humil-
lated and weakened in it's vital forces.
''These principles viii constitute the
basis of the foreign policy of the pro-
visi0nal government which will carry
out the popular will while observing
the enga gements entered into with our
allies.
The provisional government of free
Russia has no right to hide the truth.
The state is in danger. Every effort
must be made to have it let the cOun-
try respond to the truth when it is
told, not by sterile depresSiOns and not
by discouragement, but by unanimous
vigOr with a view to creating a united
national will.
THE provisional government which
has given its solemn oath to serve the
people, is firmly confident that with
the general and unanimous support of
each one and all it will itself be able
to do it's duty to its country to the
end. LVOFF,
'President of the Council"

THE REACH
1917 GUIDE

The 1917 Reach American League
Guide-the official handbook of the
great American league-has just made
its welcome appearance, thus
ushering in one more base ball season;
function which it has fulfilled each
Spring for 35 consecutive years. This
long continuation of publication alone
has served to make the Reach Guide
the standard annual publication of the
base ball world, without considering
the merits of the contents of the book,
which is edited by Francis c. Richter,
the veteran base ball writer and au-
thority. This year the Guide has been
rearranged, being grouped into four
distinct sections, method that makes
it especially easy to search out mat
ters of reference and record

ticipate in, an eight-piece orchestra
furnished excellent music for the oc-
casion.
We understand from some of our
visitors that they appreciate fully the
courtesy and kindness entended to the

all speak in the highest terms of Grand

WHAT THE
AMERICAN FLAG
MEANS To ME-
(By Howard Lyons, Class of I'D.

(By Howard Lyons, Class of '10.
To me, the American Flag is
symbol of liberty, a symbol of honor,
a symbol which represents the great
est nation in the world. It stands for
everything which is right and good.
1t is the symbol of hundred million
Christian people, and should be, next
to the Bible, dearest to them.
The stars and stripes stanu for the
fact that all men are created equal.
1t stands for law and order, and a.
bove all, it should never be insulted
or dishonored as has been done in the
last year, for every time disrespect is
shown to the flag it is felt by the mil
lions of people who hold the emblem
dear to them. The American flag is
the one and only flag for which every
man in this country should gladly lay
down his life. Our flag has never met
defeat and in the worlds war in which
it was forced TO take an active part, 1t
shall and will live up to its record
which does not register one defeat and
in case I should be called to serve 81
pledge allegiance to my flag, and to
the republic for which it stands, one
nation, indivisible with liberty and jus
tice for all.

articles written by students at the

sidered.
The banks of the county agree to
loan money for this purpose at the
rate of six per cent. Boy or girl to
sign note with some responsible par
ty.
Calves will be purchased by banks
through the Wood County Agricultur-
al School, and turned over to purchas-
er.
The boy or girl getting calf agrees
to give it good care and bring it to
town to be sold at some time in the
spring of 1918 If owners of calf de-
sire to retain animal they can bid it
in at the sale. Sales will be held at
as many places as necessary to dis
pose of calves. At time of sale notes
and interest will be paid and balance
of money will be turned over to own
ers of calves.
Each boy or girl should keep re
cord of cost of raising calf. In this
way they can tell how much actual
profit they are making
Arrangements to join the club
should be made by May first. Talk
this plan over and make arrangements
with your banker.
This plan will put more and better
cattle in the county.
What is more important it will give
the boys and girls more interest in
livestock and in the farm in general.

Arm Blast Kills 112 and Mains t21 While at

Chester P, April 1O.-One hundred

men and girls, are known to have lost
their lives and 121 were injured by a
series of terrific explosions today in
the shrapnel building of the Eddystone
Corporation, at Eddy
stone one mile from this city. Many
of the injured were mortally hurt and
it is feared the final death list will
reach $50, while some who were hurt
will be manned for life.
How any of the 800 or more en-
ployes in the building, in which were
stored approximately 10000 SHELLS,

as there was scarcely a fragment of

Fire added to the horror and most
of the bodies were SO badly charred
that Identification was impossible.
In the absence of any official state
ment, many theories as to the cause
of the disaster, one of the worst ever
experienced in this section, were ad-
vanced. Rumors of plots and arrests
of persons both inside and outside of
the plant were numerous, but all lack
ed confirmation
Twenty Philadelphia detectives
were sent to Eddystone soon after
the explosion on a rumor that it was
the result of a plot.
