THE NEW UNREST IN RUSSIA.

The reported assassination of Gen.
Count Won Mirbach, German ambassador
to Russia, is, in these days, matter of
relatively small Importance except as it
seems to typify new attitude on the
part of the Russian people toward their
German masters. Heretofore, the atti-
tude of the Russian people has been
largely that of stolid passivity under
which they took things as matter of
course, only too glad to be rid of the
bother of war and to be able to resume
their agricultural duties or to follow
their wonted yocations The Russians
wanted to be left alone to carry on their
small routine of life Such a state of
mind was very disturbing to the people
of the entente world because it gave
threat that the Russian people would
never bestir themselves to establish
correct form of representative govern
ment and, too, because it gave Germany
an undue advantage in more ways than
one. Americans, as we'll as British,
French and Italians, have looked on the
situation with growing apprehension,
fearful lest the Russians should be swal.
lowed up in the world transformation.
Now, however, there will be reawak.
ened hope because of the evidence in the
reported assassination of Count Won Mir
bach that the Russian people are not
wholly eomplacent, are not thoroughly
satisfied with the conditions under which
they find themselves under the domino
tion of the German autocracy. There
perhaps is reason to hope that the Ger.
man ambition to disorganize Russia may
yet be thwarted even though Russia is
not restored as a powerful fighting force
on the side of the allies

The Kaiser,s Reward.

The kaiser, oh that hated name,
Killer of babes and slayer of men,
His reckoning is coming as sure as fate,
As he'll find to his sorrow when it's too
late.
He'll beg on his knees, like the coward
he is,
To be freed from the terror that's sure
to be his
He cannot escape, though his remorse
may be deep,
For as he has sowed, so shall he reap.
The millions he caused to be murdered
at sight
He will see at his bedside all through the
night,
And his days will be harassed just as
well.
And life will become regular hell.
His power win be over, he'll want to die,
But even Satan, hell's prince, will pass
him by.
Beast of Berlin, poor deluded Hun,
His day is over, his race is run.
