POOR OLD RUSSIA

It is amusing to read the editorials
in the various papers regarding Rus
sia's situation. No two have the
same idea as to the cause or cure for
the conditions in Russia. Frankly
without more thought it would be
hard for US to map out a program
for the reorganization of the Rus
sian government, but the cause seems
to be easily enough discovered.
Terrible conditions" exist in Rus
STA according to most writers. We
must take that with salt. No doubt to
certain class in that country condi-
tons appear terrible, while to others
there is little terror in the situation.
The autocracy has been smashed
bodily. The ruling classes have been
brought down to conditions that have
all the time been the lot of the slower
classes" And who is to blame?
One of the most enlightened
writers has said that whereas before
the revolution the country was gov
erned by "autocracy Of the rich," at
present it is an "autocracy of the
poor"
This being the case it would seem
that the blame for conditions should
rest upon the "autocracy Of the rich, !"
for causing the conditions as would
foster a revolution, and if through
their high handed methods they pre-
cipitated revolt why waste sympa-
thy in their behalf?
The poorer classes of Russia are
no doubt as well or better off than
they were before. Never were they
more than slaves, receiving barely
enough to keep soul and body to-
gether, and under present conditions
they are at least free. If they make
mess of the government they will
then have done no worse than the
Gear and his crowd.
The awakening of Russia should
be lesson to the autocratic govern
ments, and other forms of govern
ment as well. There are limits to
human patience that must be consid-
cred. ..--.-.----.
The Russian autocracy sat on the
safety valve too long. They paid no
attention to the pressure, thinking
that as long as they could keep the
steam from escaping they were safe
And all Of a sudden they were up in
the air looking for place to light
and when they did light they found
themselves in the same position as
those whom they oppressed.
1t may be wise for the Allies to
step in and help reorganize Russia
but they would well be careful as to
where they place confidence, as the
despised lower classes have had 6
taste Of freedom, and they are moi
going to relinquish any rights fol
the sake of reorganization.

OF
SUGAR NECESSARY
THERE WILL BE SUPPLY READY
FOR CANNING IN THE NEAR
FUTURE.
Hamp Williams Receives Word That
Modfies Recent Ruling Relative 70
Killing and Selling Hens.

There will be no relaxation on the
part OF the government where con
serratiOn of sugar is concerned. or
iicials at Washington who are hand
ling this feature for the United
States food administration have as
sred Hamp Williams. federal food
administrator for Arkansas, that the
large canning plants would be per-
mitted to have enough sugar for their
purposes, and that arrangements were
being made 70 get a supply for home
canning production
In view OF the sugar situation. the
following telegram from Washington,
which Mr. Williams received and sent
to- his county food administrators, is
Of considerable interest.
AT the present time there is in
preparation a comprehensive plan for
controlling the delivery Of sugar to
all manufacturers, regarding which
YOU will be fully advised shortly. In
the meantime tire government is de-
sirous of conserving sugar, and many
manufacturers OF less essential food
products have practically reduced
consumption TO meet the govern
ments request
LAS a result of the shortage thus
created numerous small plants are
starting up throughout the country to
supply the demand due to the short
age thus created. 1t is manifest that
actual conservation cannot take place
if new plants are permitted to make
up deficiency caused by conservation
practiced by old established plants.
"You are hereby requested to ar
range with sellers in your state that
no sugar be delivered to any manufac-
turer of less essential food products
OF which sugar and flour are ingredI-
ents, who have started the business
since January /. 1918, unless first APP
proved by the food administration,
Washington
Mr. Williams also received word
that the rule issued in February
which prevented the dealing in live
hens or marketing same until April so
had been amended, and that after
Midnight. April 10, licensed dealers
and others may deal in live or freshly
killed hens.
The order was issued by officials
Of the United States food adminisra-
tion in the interest of conservation 81
eggs, and. it is reported. got excellent
results. 1t is believed the order like
others that have been issued has been
generally observed throughout the|
state. There was only one violation
of this ruling called to Mr. Williams
attention The alleged offender rel
sides near Little Rock and is reported
to have sold freshly killed hens Jo|

and make answer TO the charges pre-
ferred against him

merly had the benefit in certain other

liauor backing, thereby breaking dowT
Mr.. Lewis's reputation for accuracy

of course expects to have vital bearing
on certain other grave charges which
Mr. Lewis made against Mr.. Hearst
Mr.. Lewis will now probably real

Senator Brown diagram 1t for him. thai
Mr.. Hearst's recent attacks upon hin
