It was Peter the Great who
moved the seat Of government
from Moscow to Petrograd, his

and after 200 years the govern

its present head, Nikolal Le-
nine, back to the historic CAPT

as have the government archives, but
today the first anniversary of the
Russian revolution, marks the actual
transfer of the new government, and
is celebrated as a national holiday.
Some of the bureaus and many of
the archives have been placed at
Niji-Novogorod, but most of the min
istries are in Moscow, where they will
remain Indefinitely, unless the Ger
man invasion should render further
reterat necessary. Trotzky remained
at the head of the council of COM
missioners for the Petrograd COM
mune, which has organized its own
ministries of the army, navy, finance
and supplies.
The delegates to. the congress are
arriving by every train. Of the 1000
expected. 400 now are here. The in
dications are that Lenine retains a
firm grasp on the situation and that
the congress will vote to ratify the
peace. The members of all parties
and factions, however, are asserting
that the peace necessarily will be
only temporary, affording an oppor-
tunity for the demobilizing of the re-
naming fragment of the old army
and the forming of new Socialist
army.

Win the problems raised IN this de-
bate. ME- Iees-Smith's speech is a
presentation of what he conceives Is
the governments policy with regard
to Japan and Siberia. 1t is entirely
oblivious of the facts I have lust
brought before the house and is based
on a profound understanding of what
any human being had ever thought,
contrived or desired with regard to
Allied intervention, japanese or 9TH
erwise, in Russian Affairs"
H. B. Lees-Snith, a Liberal in
questioning Mr. Balfour as to the
British attitude, had declared that if
Japan entered Russian territory and
occupied it at the mandate of the alli-
aRce, it followed with almost abso-
lutte certainty that this territory would
not tbe returned.
IT cannot let this debate end" said
Mr.. Balfour in conclusion, without
repudiating to the full MIR. Lees
Smiths suggestion that Japan would
be moved by selfish and dishonorable
motives in any course which may be
discussed in Japan, either among her
statesmen or with the Allies.
Japan has behaved with perfect
loyalty and If she gives promises with
regard to Russian integrity or on any
question connected with Russia, she
would keep them as she has kept all
promises she has made in connection
with this war in any great public
transactions with the United States
and the Allies. I draw no distinction
in this matter between japan and the
Allies who make UP the great body
of the beTligerents on the Entente
side
THE decisions the Allies may have
to take will not be without difficulty,
but the principle on which those de-
cisions may be arrived at will be
neither unfair nor hostile 10 Russia
and the Russian revolution. Our OBJ
ject is to see Russia strong, intact,
secure and free and if these objects
can be obtained, then and then only,
viii the Russian revolution bring forth
all the fruits its best friends desire to
see."

FORMER UNITED
STATES SENATOR
STEPHENSON DEAD

Marinette, Wis, March 15-Former
United States Senator Isaac Stephen
son died early today.
Aside from the fact that Isaac
Stephenson, during his service as
United States Senator, enjoyed the
distinction of being the Oldest, as well
as the wealthiest Senator in the upper
house of Congress, he ranked as one
of the greatest producing Iumbermen
in the nation.
Born near Fredericton, N. B., June
IS, 1929, he spent his early youth on
his fathers farm and in working in
the lumber woods. He had practical
ly no schooling. His early political
career included two terms in the Wis
consin legislature, and three terms in
Congress.
In May, 1907, he YVES appointed to
fill the unexpired term of Senator
John C. Spooner, resigned, and was
elected to- succeed himself, in 1909.
Republican farmer., 1918-03-22

The Allies point of view was that
they should help Russia in protecting
herself against Germany. Although
he did not think Germany would
send an army to V1adivostok. he said
he had absolute faith in Japan's 10y
atty in carrying out any decision
reached by the Allies
Discussing the situation in Russia,
Mr.. Balfour said
IF Russia had not been at war
it would have taken many years to
complete the beneficent course of the
revolution. When autocracy fell al
most without blow, Russia immedi-
ately fell into chaos. It is untrue to
say the same thing happened in the
French revolution, for there the eff
feet was not the disintegration, but
the integration of France. Precise
lys the opposite happened in Russia.
The revolution came and all the old
divisions between regions and creeds
became marked and prominent.
sit must inevitably take time be-
fore we will see the end of that pro-
cess and to know clearly how much
of old Russia, if any, ought to cease
to form part of new Russia, and
how new Russia will be constituted.
1t is very difficult process in time
of peace and prosperity, but how
can you carry it on in time of war
with remorseless, persevering and
quite INSCRIPTIONS enemy at the gate.
There will be classes, some from
patriotic, others from selfish motives,
ready to welcome anything promising
a semblance of stability and order in
the government. When that times
comes I can imagine Germany trying
to re-establish possibly the old form
of autocratic government. We
should then have Russia snorn of
some of its fairest provinces and
with kind of autocracy far worse
than the old autocracy, because it
would lean upon a foreign power for
continued existence. If that came to
pass all our dreams of Russian deveI-
opment and Russian liberty would be
gone and Russia would become a
mere outpost { the Central powers.
This is the real difficulty of dealing
