THE COSSACKS.

Hutchinson (kan.l News: We are
hearing great deal about the Cossacks
nowadays and we are likely to hear
more about them. To most of us this
name means a wild.looking man on
horseback riding like fury, swinging a
sword over his head and soaring the
daylights out of the enemy-if the
enemy is like us.
And that imaginary picture is almost
true. For centuries the Cossacks have
been professional soldiers Every man

Every Cossack boy was raised to be

other occupation he considered beneath
his dignity. The Cossack cavalry be.
came the spectacula. part of the Rus
sian army, not always as effective as it
seemed, but especially useful in sup.
pressing riots and revolutions. shooting
down unarmed Russians and Jews. and
making the ear sleep well at nights.
The CossackS are not Russians. a sort
of Tartar race and they have never had
the habit of refusing to shoot and kill
or cut and maim when the ear com.

The native land of the Cossacks is in
southern and eastern Russia. There are
several tribes of them like the Cos

fact the Germans never considered
them serious opposition, for they We're
not up to the latest scientific methods
of discipline and killing.
The CossackS were always loyal to
the czar until the revolution of last

years and had learned that the Rus

But the CossaCks are not socialists and
they do not yearn for democracy. They
are against the bolsheviki and are being
organized by the conservative elements
of Russia to overthrow the present gov

this kind of fighting than they would
be opposite German trenches and
against German machine guns. They
might even help the czar back to the
throne. They know that under re
public their peculiar privileges would
not be continued and they would be
forced to work for Il living.
The Cossacks are not quite, as dan.

days. In this age, when a spectacled

they inspired is somewhat lessened
But they are not for peace and they
are ready to put Russia back into the

Distribute Whiskey
To Flu Sufferers

Judge Sanford instructed Deputy
u. S. Marshal Jake Carter this morn
ing to go to Bristol and distribute
100 gallons of whiskey to the suf-
ferers of influenza in that city, also
to take 100 gallons of whiskey to
Kingsport for the relief of influenza
sufferers in that town and community.
The whiskey to be distributed will
be taken from the government store
house in that city, in which they have
more than 1000 gallons of confs-
Gated whiskey, the majority of which
was taken over when the large Gouge
distillery near that city was taken
over by the government more than a
year ago. This may indicate that
other communities will be treated
likewise in the distribution of whis.
key by the government to influenza
sufferers.

''Flu" Tightens
Grip On Nation

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Reports
to the public health service today
from 35 states showed that Spanish
influenza still is on the increase in
most parts of the country. Condi-
tions in army camps also were less
favorable, the 4,79I new cases re-
ported to noon today showing that
the disease apparently was stationary
after the marked decline noted for
several days.
The epidemic still is more pro-
nounced in the western section of
the country than it is west of the
Mississippi river, due undoubtedly to
the more crowded conditions in the
large cities.
