The report Of the assassination Of
the former car of Russia has been
confirmed and, Of course, the bolshe-
wiki turned the trick. The nefarious
scoundrels in this organization would
assassinate their mothers if they
thought by so doing benefit to them
selves would result. Had they assas-
sinated the kaiser it would have placed
an altogether different complexion on
the deed, but by numbering Nicholas
nothing could possibly have been
gained. While car Of Russia he did a
great deal toward lettering the con-
dition of his people and the fact that
thousands Of political prisoners were
sent to Siberia was the fault of his
horde of advisers, who virtually
owned him body and soul and COM
PEELED him to do their bidding!
Nicholas was merely absolute mon
arch in name only-Kraputkin, the
libidinous monk, later assassinated,
being at one time the high ruler at
court.

Der Berliner Tageblatt says that a
wealthy mans son who chopped off his
trigger finger, after being notified to-
report for army duty the following
day, was ordered by the kaiser to be
taken out and shot. This goes to
show that the kaiser possesses no
sense of mercy. That boyle was only
16-was doubtless attacked with the
malady known as cold feet, which is
mild form of insanity. He should
have been permitted to live, for the
loss of finger would not have pre-
vented him from performing mental
duties such as powder monkey Of
,gravedigger, where his nerves Woule

A millionaire member of the tariff
commission, William Kent, urges the
ways and means committee to advance
the income tax to point which will
compel rich men to get along without
buffers, Wallets, footmen, chaufeurs
and other servitors. This would i'm
pose great hardships upon many equity
old plutes. Were they even to suggest
hiring females to perform these SER
vices their wives would throw bric-a-
,brac or perhaps brickbats at their
heads, and, so far as waiting upon
themselves is concerned or persuading
their wives to so do, that is entirely
out Of the question. Probably Million
aire Kent has succeeded in solving the
problem.

JoHNsoN,s CONDEMNATION.

Ex-senator Victor JOhnSOn OF
Center City, Chisago county, both Of
whose parents were born in Sweden,
is rather severe in his criticism Of
Isanti county. It is just as he says,
many q. the good people Of that county
have been misled and deceived by willy
agitators and dernagogues, but we
cannot help believing that at heart
the people Of Isanti county are loyal
and on sober second thought they will
see the error Of their ways. The wave
of fanaticism which seems to have
swept Isanti county, will soon recede;
it has already spent its force.
We reproduce the first paragraphs
Of Mr.. Johnson's red-hot interview,
which appeared in the Minneapolis
Journal Of the 10Th ult.
"My first impulse after seeing the
results of the late primary election in
Minnesota was to publicly apologize to
Judge MCGEE, and admit that he was
right" said Victor Z. johnson of Cen
ter City, former state senator, today
Mr.. johnson was author of a letter
to the Journal, published just after
Judge McGee's appearance before the
senate military affairs committee in
Washington, protesting against Judge
McGee's alleged statements about dis
loyal sentiment among citizens of Ger
man and Swedish parentage.
1T is impossible" Mr.. johnson con-
tinued, 'to feel anything but the deep
est modification and humiliation at the
astounding returns from some Of the
Swedish counties like, for instance,
Isanti. The spelling Of the county S
name should be changed to Insanity.
A county which will give such large
vote to convicted disloyalist, as
against grand old Knute Nelson, who
at 18 years of age shouldered his mus
ket, fought and bled for his country,
and ever since has stood like a beacon
light of true blue Americanism,
should be bodily lifted out of Minneso-
ia and transferred to Prussia.
"But / still hold the fault is not
wholly with the people themselves;
and still hold that we Of the Swedish
blood are the most susceptible of all
peoples to the wiles Of the agitator,
advantage Of which weakness is al
ways taken by the professional dema-
gOgue"

Some of Hank Ford's fool friends
are still urging him to run for seat
in the United States senate upon the
grounds that he would make an excel
lent statesman, and maybe he would.
But Hank should turn a deaf ear to
these fellows and continue to give his
services to the government in the
capacity of expert tinsmith. Artisans
of Hanks skillfulness are exceedingly
scarce, while fellows capable Of filling
senatorial seat are as plentiful as
cutworms in the cornfields.

The fuel administration, having
made detailed survey Of the coal re-
quired for war and industrial pur-
poses and for domestic use, now
knows the worst Of bad situation. It
says that economy alone can avert a
coal famine and urges everyone to con-
sumo as little Of the product as posi-
bic. So if we are to avert the priva-
tions and disaster attendant upon a
coal famine we must cooperate with
the fuel administration to the fullest
extent.

THE PAN-GERMANS' TERMS.

Count Won Room, an important mem
her Of the Prussian upper house, sets
forth in an article the amazing IL
political commandments Of pan-G Ger
mans. They are:
No armistice, by sea. or land, until
the British forces have left France and
Belgium and the Germans are in
Paris.
Annexation of Belgium territory,
which, though having administrative
autonomy, is to be under military and
economic control Of Germany. while
Flanders is to be independent, and the
coast up to and including Calais lis to
be annexed by Germany.
Annexation of the Briey-Longway
region. 8
France to surrender Belfort. Toul.
Verdun and all territory to the east Of
those. forts.
Return Of all German colonies, in
GLIDING Kalachow.
To bring about freedom of the seas,
England is to surrender her fleet and
coaling stations yet to be decided up
on; Gibralter be turned over to Spain.
The whole Of the, British navy to be
surrendered to Germany.
England to return Egypt with the
Suez canal to Turkey, as we'll as oc-
cupied Turkish. territory.
The evacuation of Greece and the
restoration Of King Constantine.
The division of Serbia and MOntene-
gro between Austria and Bulgaria.
The payment of indemnities Of $45,-
000,000,O00 by America, England and
France, and the provision of necessary
supplies of raw material.
The occupation Of French and Bel
gian territory to continue till the
agreement is carried out, the costs Of
occupation being betrayed by the
enemy Copyright, 1918, by New
York Times.
The surprising thing about these
pane German demands is their extreme
moderation. We had expected that if
the Huns were victorious they would
demand the cession Of Canada and all
Of the United States east of the
Mississippi river and an indemnity of
at least 100000 100000. But before
England and the United States pays
tribute to the Beast Of Berlin-Wil-
liam the Damned hell will be con-
gealed from center to circumference.

Woman suffrage bumped up against
another obstacle in the senate the other
day and the resolution will probably
not come to a vote for long time.
A flibuster turned the trick although
the suffragists charge President Will
son with the offense. The female suf-
frage lobbyists, who hang around the
halls Of congress, should be told to go
home and sit down until the war is
over. They constitute veritable
nuisance at this time when Legislators
have so much important work on hand.

In the earliest days of New England
history" says Our Dumb Animals,
"when there were no stoves in the
churches and women took hot potatoes
in their muffs, men sometimes brought
their dogs to church to serve as foot
warmers. For this privilege a charge
was made of sixpence dog" And
this very thing will be necessary the
coming winter if people who insist
upon attending church as everyone
should do not heed the fuel admin
istrator's orders and skimp on coal.

Couldn't Work the NOrwegians.

Freedom county went about three
to one for Burnquist, and this must
have been expected by the Townley
men after the unsuccessful efforts they
made in that and other counties in the
two southern tiers. A letter from one
of the league organizers who had
been working in Freedom fell into the
hands Of a loyal American and is pub
lished in the Austin Herald. The or
ganizer complains to ''Mr. Quist," who
was the head organizer with head
quarters at Austin, that ct can't ,du
nothing with these Norwegen," and
wishes he could get into a German set

spelling and composition was repro
