RUSSIAN PEASANTS
 GLAD ID BE FREE
 0F B0LSHEVIK RULE
AFTER LONG REIGN OF TERROR THEY NOW HAVE PEACE AND FOOD AS RESULT OF occUPA- TON OF COUNTRY BY TROOPS OF THE ALLIES

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN NORTHERN RUSSIA, Sept. IS, Correspondents of the Associated ess.)-Russian peasants in this dis trict are glad to be freed from Bol- shevik rule.
 "The Bolsheviks promised us that we would have land and peace and plenty" one sturdy old man said to the Associated Press correspondent, but we soon learned what was their real theory. It was just this:
 Tonight I go over and steal your COW and tomorrow night you come back and cut my throat and steal it back"
 The peasants here are now settling down to what they hope will be order and tranquility after a long reign of Bolshevik terror.
 All along the roads here one finds. in the evenings. peasants walking back to their houses with little bags of food, given them by the allies. Now. and then, they are given a can of jam. a luxury even for the rich iR Russia now.
 In one village, which the allies had not yet had time to reach with their food supplies. the correspondent found one peasant family eating swan. which they described as exceedingly tough.
 'Tt was a sacred bird with us be- fore" one Of the peasants apologized. but we have no meat and the Bol- shevilJs killed the fish in our lake with bombs from their airplanes."
 The peasants are working willingly under the kind treatment of British and American Russian-speaking sol diers. They were very glad to build an aviation field. cutting down many acres of thick timber. because they were told the field would be theirs for cultivation after the campaign.

Trains Fairly Well Filled.

The trains are unbelievably SLOW
but they are fairly well filled with
curious travellers. In our apartment.
for example, was the German consul
from Prague and a German engineer
officer, who had been eight days on
the road from Rumania. where he
had rebuilt the American oil derricks
destroyed in the Rumanian retreat.
One bore had been cleaned out and
was now in good shape, producing
twenty carloads daily. There was also
German infantry officer from Ga
licia, who had not had much to eat for
months. These men were all in civil
ian clothes for good reason.
Americans are well received, for
German hopes are also in America.
Seeing my uniform. the German OFF,
Ger from Galicia asked: What are
you and why are you travelling In
Germany during war time? Are you
on diplomatic mission"
NO." replied. Il am travelling for
amusement. The war is over"
Startled to Learn War Is Over.
He appeared startled, but SO far he
is the only man whom I have met
who thought the war was not over.
In the railroad station in Berlin I
was handed a circular issued by the
German democratic party to the effect
that the object of the organization
was to secure freedom, peace and
work for the returning soldiers. In
their honor the houses were decorated
with banners, and flags were flying
from many of the buildings. In
restaurant a few tables from where
Count Won Bernstorff sat I met Herr
Kramer, former manager of the Carl
ton Hotel in London, who spoke re-
gretfully of his twenty-nine years
spent in England. He smilingly re-
marked that he had passed three years
in a British internment camp.

GERMAN THOUGHTS
TURN FROM WAR
Central Nations Seek Food
Supplies; All Who Disagree
Are "BoIshevists."
HOPES ARE in AMERICA

BY A. n. DECKER.
By Wireless to The Evening Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1918.
BERLIN. Germany, December A.
Four years Of war have made war a
habit for many. but not for Germany
and much less for Austria, where the
whole thought Of the people is con-
centrated upon finding something to
eat.
True, in the hotels and better res
taurants one finds enough il one is
able to pay the price. The real hard
ship of the food scarcity is falling upon
the poor in the cities. where a crust
of bread and SOME cabbage soup are
insufficient to provide strength with
which to resist disease and maintain
the morale.
Effort to Exclude Bo1sheviki.
The last thought Of Austria and Ger
many is to resume the war wantonly.
The armies have been disbanded and
all the material lost; the officers have
lost the power over the men which
made them resist so long.
In Austria one travels freely. No one
thinks of showing or demanding pa
pers. At the German frontier they are
more strict. for the authorities are
making sincere effort to exclude the
bolsheviki who, If the truth be told,
are more or less of a myth.
In these countries any one who dis
agrees Is bolshevist. In travelling
through Austria I was told that there
was bolshevism in the next town,
but on arriving there found that all
was calm. In Prague I heard Of one
Russian who had been caught and was
said to be a bolshevist. AS he was.
provided with plenty of money, per-
haps he was just plain swindler or
thief who had escaped with his loot.
Bolshevism is always just beyond.
On the Observation-Disclosures from
tier the control is quite strict in the
effort to exclude undesirable charac-
tiers. In my case there was the usual
wartime examination of passports,
which came as a surprise after the
freedom of movement I had expert
enced in Austria. One German soldier,
who was being examined, could not
talk German. He had forgotten his
native tongue. after having been
prisoner in Russia nearly four and
half years.

UDGESHlp SPECULATION.

LAWYERS are wondering what Governor
Mlliken will do in the matter OF the APP
pointment of associate justices of the su-
preme court to succeed three, all Demo-
Gratis. namely, Justices Haley and Han
son, whose terms are about to expire, and
Justice Madigan, who has Just died. OF
course, nobody knows what is running
through the governors mind, but the
"dope" which obtains most credence is
that he will name two Democrats and one
Republican, 1t is believed by some law
yers that the lamentable decease of JUS
tice Madigan will improve the chances of
Justice Haley's reappolntment and it has
been generally thought for some time
past that Justice Hanson would succeed
himself The appointment OF a Republl-
can in place Of Justice Madgan Is anti
cipated by many. Later on Justice Bird,
also Democrat, will probably retire, as
he will have reached the age limitation,
when he may, if he chooses, retire on
pension of 81, 800 year. Governor Mil
liken has habit of keeping his lnten-
lions regarding important appointments
to himself until he is ready to make them,
and all dope as to whom he will name
is taken by the wise ones with several
grains of salt. The bench is now equally
divided politically, but it seems to be
everybody's guess that before 1918 has
passed there will be five Republicans,
possibly six, on the bench.

AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. 49, Col. John j.
Dooley, formerly chief of ordnance of
the Maine National Guard, is now a
major in the United States Marine Corps.
Immediately upon the breaking out of
the war, Maj. Dooley went to Washing
ton and offered his services to the Gov
eminent. He was wanted particularly
as an expert instructor in the use of ma
chine guns He was given a captains
commission and set to work, and it was
not long after that that he was asked to
establish a machine gun school.
The school of instruction opened at the
