Brags on Efficiency of Government.
II do not mean that administrative
measures should be concealed from
our people. Of course mistakes have
been made by the government-doubt-
less many and grave mistakes. IN
the circumstances that was inevitable,
but is it necessary for US to stand on
q housetop and proclaim these mis-

Considering everything, Mr.. Stone

reiterated, is to elect a congress out of

of the Republican national committee
the Missouri senator said, before he
introduced his star witness he would
cite the statement made to the press
by Mr.. Wilcox regarding the incompe-
tence of the Democratic party and its
effect on coming congressional cleo
tionS. He said a meeting of Repub-
lican leaders had been called at St
Louis on February IL to inaugurate a
winter campaign.
Colonel Roosevelt has engaged a
hall in st. Louis to make a war speech
the day before the committee meet

'I now introduce my star witness:

Citing criticisms of Mr.. Roosevelt's
editorials, Senator Stone continued:

For example Roosevelt denounces
the president and the government in

not question the right of congress to

Hits Barber Shops Too.
Humphreys and his war with the
union BARRIERS get theirs, too, in the
order. Humphreys, proprietor of the
National hotel and barber shop, start
ed an agitation among the local bar
berS some time ago in regard to the
practice of staying open a little later
in the evening" Now comes Dictator
Danner with the official and final or
der that all barber shops in the coun-
ty must close their doors at o'clock
in the evening, nor must they open
them again till o'clock the next
morning. This applies except on Sat
urdays when the shops can stay open
until 10 o'clock in the evening.
Perhaps the biggest hardship on the
youngsters will be the closing of the
dance halls altogether. Not for min
ute will the dance halls be open until
the present order is revised in this re-
garland the revision will probably
come after the summer sun solves the

WHY BoIsHEvTKT WITHDREW.
Minority Believed Assembly Intended
to Overthrow Socialism.

Petrograd, Jan. 21.-The declaration
of the Bolsheviki delegates to the
constituent assembly adopted by them
prior to their bolt from this body, was
published in full today. In part it as
serted:
The debates have shown that the
Social Revolutionaries of the Right,
as in kerensky's time, are nourishinS
the people on promises and phrases,
but in reality are opposing Socialist
measures such as appropriation of
lands, the naturalization of banks and
the control and annulment of state
debts. Not wishing to condone these
crimes of the enemies of the people,
we declare we are quitting the assem-
bly,"
Lenine Order DisSoiving Congress.
The Bolshevik: decree dissolving the
constituent assembly read in part:
THE constituent assembly was
chosen from the old election lists and
it now appears as an expression of
the old bourgeoisie regime expecting
geoisie republic opposing the October
revolution and the soviets' authority.
The old bourgeoisie parliament
tariSm has seen its day. 1t is unable to
cope with the tasks facing Socialism.
Only institutions such as the soviets
are able to overcome the opposition
of the rich classes and to create a new
Socialist state. The refusal to recog-
nize the soviets' authority and the re-
storing to the bourgeoisie of the lib
erty they have won would be a step
backward toward bankruptcy of the
workmen's and peasants revolution.
The Right Socialist Revolutionaries
are openly fighting the soviets and
supporting the eXploiters of labor. The
central executive committee therefore
orders the constituent assembly dis
