Illinois editors today by an attack
on the War departments order that

Mr.. Kelley characterized the order
as "assurd, cruel, Infamous and inn
possible"
The editors were the guests of the

Mr.. Kelley, in addition to criticising
the War department order as infict-
ing the cruelty OF uncertainty in
thousands of homes, remarked that
there were all together too many pub

Petrograd Newspaper Declares
1900 Soldiers Reached ST.
berian Post in January;
B0Isheviki Armed.

| London, Friday, March S.-Detail.
of an alleged landing of japanese
troops at Vladivostok in January arc
given in the Petrograd newspaper
Novaia Zhizn Of January 10, which
has just been received here.
The paper says that the japanese
cruiser Mikado arrived on January Il
and was followed by two more cruis-
ers on January Ia.
-Four thousand soldiers were landed
and numbers of officers continued to
arrive in Vladivostok daily, accord
ing to the newspaper. The Japanese
admiral assured the local workmen's S
and soldiers council that the arrival
of ships and troops should not be con-
sidered as the beginning of military
operations, but they were there to
protect Japanese subjects.
The message to the Novaia Zhizn
says the Vladivostok public was
alarmed and the revolutionary COM
mittees were concentrating bolshevik
troops.
Information concerning the re-
ported entrance of British and Japan
ese cruisers into Vladivostok harbor
was asked OF the British and Japanese
embassies in Petrograd on January
20 by the bolshevik government. The
embassy in Petrograd Immediately
issued an official statement denying
the japanese forces had been landed
at Vladivostok. 1t was added that
the presence of a Japanese cruiser at
Vladivostok had no connection with
the situation in Russia. The British
embassy said that British warships
had gone to Vladivostok to protect
allied subjects against possible dis
orders

ONE AMERICAN STARTS.
The first reports of the encounter
were that another raid had taken
place, and all along the line details
were being awaited eagerly. lnves-
igatior showed that one American
started what there was OF an Of
fensive. The name Of this man IS
mentioned in all reports Of the affair
and he has been congratulated heart
ilv bv his officers and comrades TOT
his courage and level-headedness.
The sentry saw the patrol advanc-
ing, and looked on as the Germans
began to drop cautiously into the
trench. He knew that an American
natrol was out along the wire not tar
awav and counted upon its help after
he opened FIRE. There were four i.ien
in the American patrol. By the time
five Germans had entered the trench
the sentry thought he should delay
no longer. especially as the under
officer who was leading the Germans
had approached within a few yards
of him.
German Leader Falls.
The sentry opened FIRE rapidly with
out challenging. The German leader
fell at the first crack of the rifle. The
others in the trench hurriedly sought
projections, but they were. not quick
enough, for the sentry's bullets caught
some OF them.
AS the American began firing
German some distance outside the
wire shouted, "Come out, come out"
The Germans needed no second ir1-
vitation. In fact, those who were
still in the wire already had started
out. The small American patrol saw
the enemy trailing back across No
Mans land, under fire from the sem
try and from Americans at point
further along the line. The patrol
joined in the fray and helped to speed
the Germans on their way by hurting
a large number of hand grenades.

CAST DECIDING VOTE.

CAST DECIDING VOTE.
To Trotzky probably more than to
any Of the other bolshevik leaders Is
due the present situation in Great
Russia.
He was said to have cast the decid-
ing vote on the question whether to
send delegates to Brest-L -Litovsk a
fortnight ago.
Germany in its ruthless demands
shattered his program Of self-deter-
mination and nonresistance.
It was Trotzky who made public
the text of secret documents ex-
changed between former Russian
governments and foreign govern
ments and It was he who proposed
the armistice to the central powers
early in December, which eventually
led to the abortive conference at
Brest-L -Litovsk.
The negotiations were disrupted in
mid February and hostilities were re-
newed. The Germans then submit
ted partial peace terms, but Trotzky
took no part In the conferences.
Trotzky's resignation is the second
among the Russian leaders forecast
by Berlin. On February rs Berlin re-
ported that Ensign Krylenko, COM
mander of the Russian armies, had
been superseded.
Lenine Sole Survivor.
A dispatch received in London
Thursday said Krylenko had resigned
owing to differences with the council
OF peoples commissaries. Trotzky's
resignation was forecast by Berlin
last Tuesday. The Withdrawals Of
Trotzky. and Krylenko leaves Lenine
as the survivor Of the bolshevik ruling
triumvirate. Trotzky also is president
of the Petrograd council of workmen
and soldiers delegates and was ap-
pointed food dictator with unlimited
on February 20.
Having escaped from Siberia, where
he was sent for political offenses,
Trotzky was an exile at the outbreak

Some Information
About Post Office and
Concerning Mail Matter

Postmaster Huckestein has received
a number of war orders in regard to
the activities of the postoffice, and
believes that the people of Salem are
not immune from criticism in regard
to the matters mentioned in the orders.
They will be posted in the post office
building for the public to read.
Many letters are being sent to Swift
zerland, in care Of the International
Red Cross, for delivery in enemy coun-
tries, particularly that portion of Italy
now occupied by the Germans. The
post office department wants the in
formation circulated that the Interna-
tional Red Cross cannot perform such
a duty, and that the letters will be re-
turned.
Postmasters Of the central offices
for each district are asked to report
each branch office which has not sold
thrift stamps during the month, or
where the sales indicate that but lit
tie attention is being paid to the work
L is inoended, it is thought, to see that
the stamps are sold, even if the post
master has to be eliminated in the eff
fort.
The postmaster is asked to closely
question the senders of money orders
to persons in neutral countries. 1t has
developed that many of these have
found their way into enemy hands, and
a closer watch is to be made to. prevent
the practice becoming a greater men
ace.
The enemy propaganda that the gov
eminent intends to contfscate supplies
of canned goods and preserves is de-
MED in the poster received today
which states that this is far from the
intention
