UNDER GERMAN CONTROL.

What sort of a government Russia has to look forward to under Leniue and Trotsky direction is indicated by the demand which has been made in directly upon Great Britain for the re- lease of the Russians held in London under suspicion of being German spies. This action is taken through a threat made to English residents of Petrograd to the effect that they will be imprisoned unless such action is taken by their government. This would amount to the saf1at- thing as holding such people as hostages in or der to secure the freedom of those who have brought suspicion upon them selves as working against not only the interests or Great Britain but Rus sia itself.
 When the revolution overthrew the czar and a new government was set up in Petrograd one of the first things to be done was to break down and de- stroy the discipline of the army. It was pointed out by those who knew what could be expected from such a procedure that it meant disaster to the government. Failing to profit by the advice the prophecy has come true and those who are now in control are going further and manifesting their disregard for all law and order in ether nations.
 When a government demands the release of such prisoners it presents its weakest front, It shows how thor cughly 1t is under the control of the nation which 1t has been fighting and how ready it is to turn and bite those who have been it's friends. Such hos tflity plainly shows how completely Lenine and Trotsky are guided by German influence and feeling.

 Dear Uncle:
 Just few lines to let you know
 that I am still enjoying good health. I received your letter dated Sept. 24 you, as I thought that you hal for gotten me.
 I cannot tell you much about he trip across the pond or about tire places where we go, but 1 will tell 2S much as I can.
 The voyage across the pond was fine. for We had fair weather most of the time. When it was rougn we had waves about 30 feet high, and the boat did some rolling. We landed in quite large city but did not stay there very long. We have since travelled quit9 a bit about the country and am now in s nice place where I think We will stay for a while. We get a aoI of reports | about the war from tho French sol diers. l met a French soldier shat was in the battle about Nerdun ana he show ed where he was wounded six times. The people here treat us good, for they think that an American soldier is 1 just it
 We get good meals ani have plenty to eat. for I am getting fat and nave | gained in weight also. We have some weather over here, for it is rain today and tpnorrow for l a change we have heavy fog. It showed last week and was about 1 three inches deep. I do not like this country as I do l the States and will be glad when I get back again so I wish they would let us get at the Huns and finish them. When I get back I will be able to tell more of my story, as it io lave told about all I am allowed, so I will have to change the subject If I had a camera ] would he able I to get some great pictures. for I ha ve often wished 1 had a camera. I heard 1 that George Auburn was among the ones that was in the draft. I am getting to be some so1die" and i like it more and more as I go along. | I am glad 1 joined when I did. for 1 I got. in a regiment that has good name. They call it the Fighting 1 Ninth and I guess we can live up to l it when the time comes. I am now going to tell you some real news so here goes: I have raised l a mispla ced eyebrow on my upper lip and it is growing fine. I think I will close for this time. so give my regards to all.

EVERY POSSIBLE PROTECTION.

The destruction of more waterfront property in Brooklyn, the yard of the Morse shipbuilding and repair com pany, demonstrates as only such af- fairs can that too much attention can not be given to the protection of es- tabiishments which are involved in advancing the war work. At this yard there were several of the German ves- sells, which had been taken over by this government. undergoing changes and repairs. It was a point at which the enemy agents might be expected to strike with the torch or a bomb and the fact that a portion has been destroyed in fire. the origin of which is a mystery, gives ground for the belief that the enemy aliens. in this country are concentrating their efforts on the crippling of the plants which are able to give the country the great est service.
 That the plant was under guard at the time does not necessarily indicate that such protection is useless. It

makes it more apparent that greater vigilance has got to be exerted. that the throwing of guards about water front property and war industries is vital and that if there are any loop holes which are not properly taken care of. or if greater scrutiny of the employees is required there should be no hesitancy in taking the necessary steps to obtain it. What has happen ed without guards is known. We are finding out the protection which is being secured from the present sys- tenn of guardianship and if sterner measures are necessary they must be taken.

In olden times there was certain Pich Man wsio was clothed in purple and fine. linen and who dined stump tuously every day. There was also a Reggar who lay at the, gate of the Rich Men and begged for the crumbs from the Rich Mans table and was refused them.
 And it came to pass that this Eseh Man died and lifted up his eyes in Hell
 This is an old story. You have heard it often. It can be repeated in 1917, for the Allies are asking oisls' the crumbs from the Rich Mans tah1s and if they are not given we will lift up our eyes in hell.
