Lenine and Trotsky, Rasol nikow, and Dybenko, the Russian di- vision of our general staff operating in Finland is ordered to Petrograd for the disposal of the information department of the staff" Among the officers named the Major Luberts whose cipher signature is given as it appears on the two surrendered Ger man circulars mentioned above (Doc- ument No. 3, and Lieut.. Hartwig, whose cipher signature is given as it appears on the receipt for the two circulars. And an indorsement on this letter from the German General Staff records that the German officers assigned to Petrograd had appeared "before the military revolutionary committee" and had "agreed on con- ditions with regard to their mutual activities"
 What their mutual activities were to be is sufficiently indicated by Doc ument No, T. which is a photograph 1 of letter signed in cipher by this Major Luberts and his adjutant, Lieut.. artwig. They notify the Bolshevik | leaders, on January 12, 1918, that "by i order of the German General Staff'' l the German intelligence section "has | informed us of the names and the | characteristics of the main candi- | dates for reelection" to the Russian Bolshevik Central executive Com mittee," and "the general staff orders us to insist on the election of the fol- lowing people" They add a list of Russian leaders satisfactory to the German General Staff. The list is headed by Trotsky and Lenine. They were elected, and the rest of the present Bolshevik executive commit tee were chosen from the same Ger man list.
 Document No. 28 gives evidence of the quid pro quo. It Is a photograph of a letter from the president of the German Imperial Bank to the Bol- shevlk commissar of foriegn affairs It is marked "Very secret" and dated January 8, 1918. It says: "Informa- ton has today been received by me
 from Stockholm that 50,OOO,OOC roubles of gold have been trans ferred to be put at the disposal of the
 peoples commissars," which is the
 title of the Bolshevik leaders. "Thii

FREDERICK THE PACIFIC.

Austrians will commemorate to- morrow the 50Srd anniversary of the birth of the Emperora Frederick III, who was also Frederick ", as king of Germany and Frederick V. as archduke of Austria. While the em- pire was at this period elective, the crown became nearly hereditary in the house of Frederick, of the 3aps- burg line, who was also the last Ger man king to be crowned Emperor of Rome and King of the Lombards.
 The career of Frederick is not cal culated to excite much enthusiasm in these stirring times. for he was sur named The Pacific" and while his reign was marred by almost constant warfare, he had none of the qualities of a successful leader of men. He was born in Innsbruck on Sept. 21
 1415, his mother being a Polish prin- cess. In 1439 he ascended the throne as successof Albert the Prodigal. Be- ing of an exceedingly cautious dispo- sition, he accepted the proffered i'm perial dignity only after a medita. | tion of Several weeks.

Lists of German and Russian spies watching the British, French and American embassies in Petrograd are given in Document No. 23, and finally, in Document No. IS the Bolshevik leaders are warned that information concerning ''the connection of the | German government with the Bolshe- vik workers has leaked out and that Russian troops are hearing of it. Letters are given to show how the | Bolshevik leaders and the German officers arranged for the assassination of Russian Nationalist leaders (Doc- 1 uments s5, 39 and 52), for the de- | struction of the Polish legionaries in the Russian army Documents 40 to | 42), for the Reorganization of Ru- manian army and the deposing of the Rumanian king Document No. 37). for the substitution of officers satis- factory to Germany in command of Russian troops instead of, patriotic Russian generals Documents 31 and 32), for the suppression of patriotic agitation among the Russian soldiers | Documents IS and 1D, for an attack upon the Italian ambassador in Petro- grad and the theft of his papers

agents in Russia and obeying German orders to act against all Germany's enemies and even against Russia itself.
 Moreover, these Bolshevik leaders acted as German agents by suppress ing their own socialist revolution in the Russian provinces where their doctrines interferred with German plans of annexation. Document 46 is the original letter from the Petro- grad department of the German Gen eral Staff, addressed to the Bolshevik Commissar of Foreign Affairs.
 It reads: According to instructions of the representative of our General Staff, have the honor once more to insist that you recall from Finland Litva and Courland all agitators of the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet of Workmen and Soldiers Deputies" And in Document AT the general staff orders the Bolshevik | to cease the agitation in Finland which had finally led to the German landlords being declared outlawed, and to take immediate steps for the restoring of the rights of the above mentioned German landlords
 Another group of letters (Nos. 3S tt 36) shows how the Germans cheated the Bolshevik leaders in their deal l ings with the Ukraine and made 2 separate German peace with the anti Bolshevik leaders in that Russian province.

 In spite of the fact that he was an ardent pacifist and lover of peace. wars filled nearly the whole of his reign, which was the longest of any German emperor's, lasting for 53 years.

FELLOW VOTERS:
lam a candidate for Governor 81 the Republican ticket and have pledged
mvsef to three things if nominated and elected:
1 An economical business administration fr Vermont;
2. State pay for all Vernonters IN military service;
3. Bnefsession oflegsltur, dealing more especially with war measures
BETTER BUSINESS SYSTEM NEEDED
am conducting n political warfare against any public officer, but
the system that permits large sum Of money to be drawn from the treasury
without voucher is entirely wrong, and has resulted in the present situation
at the statehouse.
You may remember that l called your attention in 1906 to the need
of a better business system and predicted a deficit ifs such methods we're
pursued. In my opinion, such deficit will continue if the present system of
handling the states cash is not changed. t.
Heected Governor should, with the authority of the legislature, estab-
Esh modern methods of handling state funds on voucher.
CULTIVATE IDLE STATE LANDS
State institutions should be self supporting. Large sums are paid
tut annually for hay, straw, produce, fuel, butter eggs, beef pork etc, used.
in various state plants. The state owns 100 acres of land in connection
with such institutions and IS 900 acres of woodland. These lands should
PAY FOR OUR SOLDIERS AND SAILORS t.
Under the present law, Vermont volunteers in service receive state pay
fs only one yea after enlistment. Many of them have served O than n
year and their state pay has stopped. believe Vermont should pay every
man and woman in military service for the full duration of The war and shall
urge such legislation if elected governor.
Vermont needs better roads. A great deal of money is spent every
year for this purpose much of which is wasted. Taxpayers are entitled to
100 cents O the dollar for highways, and better roadnaking methods
would give them morem mileage of good roads each year.
Aboishing unnecessary Offices and commissions will save money enough
to pay the soldiers and sailors, do all the states work economically and give
better schools and highways.
On these grounds I ask your vote and influence at the primary on Tues
day, September 10th.

Laying aside all partisanship the
governorship nomination in the re-
republican party stands about like
this today: If Clement can hold the
local option vote and draw heavily
from the other candidates he will
win at the primary. If Clements
following is negligible and Howe
holds the people as has been shown
in many instances then he is a Win
ner. If on the other hand Darling
gains as his managers claim there
will be a walk over for him. Viewed
from a fair summing up the contest
today is between Clement and
