ALLIES MUST AID RUSSIA.


With the exception of sending few companies from
allied governments to increase the forces that bat
ting for the salvation of Russia Possibly the allies
perfectng plans which have not yet been revealed but
the public can judge only by what is known, and the
situation as it appears the surface is grave indeed
Calls for assistance have been sent out by the Czecho
Slovak military leaders who control the Transsberian
railroad but these calls seem to be unheeded Presum-
ably President Masaryk, of Bohemia, who has just ar
rived in Paris from Washington will lay before France
and England the desperate straits of the proay forces
in Russia and the necessity of immediate assistance if
the boshevik be prevented from destroying Rus
STA an dthe Russians
The small force of Americans in Siberia is worth little
or nothing The United States might as we'll have kept
out 1t is contributing the pacifcation of Russia
but rather to the proongaon Of disorder by sending
insufficient and Contemplate army" The bolsheviki
will impress upon the Russian peasants the apparent fact
that the United States is merely pretending befrehd
them while in reality deserving them and the peasants
will be forced to believe what they see what they
hope.

bnsk at the eastern foot of the Ura for the winter
This is the point long ago agreed upon by the allied stats
suitable stronghold from which to operate in defend
ing the Transsberian railroad and eventually to thrust
the boshevk out of central and northern Russia Gen
Dietrichs the Czecho-Sovak chief of staff reminds the
allies that they accomplish this task if they will send
renforcemens but that the CzechoSoYak forces alone
cannot hope to do the work.
The allies cannot afford to neglect Russia while they
go forward with peace plans. Russia and peace in
extrcably ntermngled. Unless Russia is restored to
order and good government there will be world peace
The bolshevik fast driving Russia into a bog OF
famine and anarchy, from which may arise miasma
that will poison the whole world 1t is absurd to at
tempt to ignore nation of 100000 libery-loving
people inhabtng territory comprising oneseventh OF
the earth That tremendous force will work either fol
evil for good vast scale affecting the population
of all other countries The allies for their own safetys
sake and for the sake of civilization should Immediately
send forces to Russia to cooperate with the people in
throwing off boshevism and setting up free and stable
government.-W Washington Post

Writes Home

A. E. r., St. Nazaire, France.
My Dear Grandfather:
Although / am many miles away,
am thinking Of you, for | have not
forgotten that today is your birth
day, and want you to accept my
heartiest congratulations, and l hope
you will live to enjoy many more
years of good health and prosperity.
Yesterday and today have been
great days Of celebrating in France,
for Germany has signed the armistice
dictated by the allies and the kaiser
has left Berlin and gone to Holland.
One year from now on your birth
day hope to be at your celebration
in person.
At II o'clock a. m. yesterday when
we learned of the good news every
whistle and church bell began ring
ing and did not stop until night. All
work ceased and the American and
French soldiers went arm in arm
about the town. The old gray-haired
folks became young again, and cele-
brated like a child with new toy.
It was a wonderful lsight and one
never to be forgotten. can imagine
how you and all the home folks were
thankful when you heard the good
news, for many an one is thankful
that it is only a matter of a short
time before peace will be signed. AS
soon as peace is signed / will begin
to count the days before ] will be on
my way to see you and all the folks,
for / am under an impression that
we boys who were wounded at the
front will be among the first to leave.
This is a nice country in some
parts. would like to be with the
regulars once more. The weather is
fine and I am in the best of health.
Has mother received my Liberty
bond yet. will close.

HOLLAND AND HoHENzoLLERN.

The chances that William Hohenzollern will have to
for his crimes before an international tribunal
daily increasing So are the evidences of his per.
sona guilt Herr Kurt Eisner the head Of the Bavaran
republic promises revelations of the most sensational
description backed up by documentary evidence in the
kaisers handwriting The feeling in entente coun-
tries that William II should appear at the bar of out
ragged humanity has gained force as to be practically
unanimous.
Holland which must be regarding her self-nvted and
most unwecome guest sort of white elephant" will
surely make opposition to his extradton The Dutch
proposes solution of the kaiser prob
EN- that has much to recommend it. 1t is that Holland
should intern the imperial criminal for life in one Of the
Dutch colonies, either in the East or West Indies If
this plan accepted by the allies the kaiser would
be disposed of without getting into the limeght of
spectacular trial before international tribunal There
is always the danger that he will pose as martyr and
receive the sympathes Of maudln sentimentalists
If the Dutch proposal should be accepted, he could
be promptly hustled off the stage on which he has strut
ted and atttudinzed for over quarter of century
and passed into oblivion the worst possible punishment
for poseur" Of his caliber Of course there is always
the fear that Dutch colony might prove not ST. Helena
but Elba But the would hold good of any other
place of inernment which the allies might select The
only place of exile that would meet with popular approval
lis probably Devils Island where the unfortunate Captain
Dreyfus spent nearly ten years of his life.
From the point of view of poetic justice Devils Island
has much to recommend it. wind-swept spit of sand
lost in the ocean, the kaiser would there be alone with
his thoughts and would have time to mediate on the
horrors his mad ambition let loose on humanity. Than
that no greater punishment could be imagined In com
parison with the blank wall and the firing squad would
be mercful end.-Washington Post.

Gated No other agency or will do this The editor
in proportion to his MEANS does for his town than
any other ten men, and in all fairness he ought to be

CON KFESSION DOESN'T
SAVE BOLO PASHA
TRAITOR EXPECTS TO DIE
AND CAUSE OTHERS TO
DO THE SAME.

Paris, April ll,--Bolo Pasha, con-
demned to death for treason, but
granted a reprieve of indefinite du-
ration on his plea that he had i'm
portant revelations to make to the
military judicial authorities, enter
tains no doubt as to what his ulti-
b ate fate wi be, according to the
P&it Jc,,rnal today. 1t quotes him
Il viii 0 to Vincennes, but 9th
ers wi ',I I rely follow" Ut is at
Vincen u hat French military exc
cutions : place.,
Bolo continuing his 'revela-
tons" bul the utmost silence is pre-
served in official circles as to their
trend. He will be heard again to-
day, which is expected to conclude
the hearings.
The newspaper La Nictore does
not take the view that the prison.
er's execution is imminent. What
yer importance may be attached to
Bolo's llth hour confession, it says
one result is certain, which is that
several days will elapse before his
execution, as the things he reveals
will have to be investigated and cor
roborated or disproved, "and the
willy Bolo has doubtless gained All
indefinite postponement."

Makes Dire Threat.

Dublin, April little govern
ment has gone mad says the Free
mans Journal in commenting upon
the proposal to extend conscription
to Ireland. Lloyd George, the
quondam Boer champion, announc-
ed the decision yesterday 10 carry
the war into Ireland.
Every one in Ireland knows
what the result will be"
The Irish Times says:
1--WE are sure the government did
not reach its decision without hay
ing made its plans to overcome, il
it cannot propitiate, the resistance
which may be offered from Ireland
Only one thing that could be more
unfortunate than the total exemp-
ton of this country from compul-
sorry service-the enactment OF
compulsion and subsequent hesita-
ton to enforce it in the fact of law
less and disloyal threats"
The Irish Independent says:
The basis OF the government
policy is so apparent that all its in
tertionS are suspected. No minis
try that has ever ruled Ireland since
the penal days has more Justly in
Cured the eXecrations of people
whose liberties are sacrificed tc

LYNCHED GERMAN IS
BURIED WITH FLAG
OF UNITED STATES

st. Louis, No, April 1.-The dy-
ing wish OF Robert p. Prayer,
hanged by a mob at Collinsville,
ILL.,, last Friday that he be buried
with an American flag was respect
ed yesterday when funeral services
for the dead man attended by more
than 500 persons were held from a
local undertaking establishment. A
large flag was draped over his body
and upon it reposed numerous floral
tributes, most of them from persons
who had not known the man.
The services were in charge of 4
German branch of the Odd Fellows.
OF which Prayer was a member, a
short sermon i'll English being
preached by the Rev. w. S. Simon,
pastor Of Jesus Evangelical Church.
Burial was III St. Matthew's Gene

U-BOAT TOLL IS
MUCH LIGH TER
ONLY SIX BRITISH CRAFT
ARE LOST DURING PAST
WEEK.

Washington, April 1l.-Another
drop in the sinking of allied mer-
chantmen by German submarines
is noted in current reports. The
British losses of six ships, includ-
ing four Of more than 1900 tons,
is the next lowest weekly total since
February 10, 1917. The lowest week
was that of November II, when one
large and five small vessels went
down Last weeks total was Is.
One Italian and two French mer-
.chantmcn are reported as lost.
Ii is believed in Washington that
the falling off in submarine eifec-
tiyeness is due to the fact that the
Germans are turning their attention
from merchantmen TO transports.
Departures of American troops for
Europe, it is said, now are three
times greater than some time ago,
and it is probable the Germans may
be preparing for a huge submarine
offensive against the troop ships.

PBUILDIN c NOW
IS IN SPEEDY RACE
AMERICA AND THE ALLIED
COUNTRIES WILL BUILD
100000 TONS IN 1918.

Chicago, April IL. .- American
shipbuilding, the most vital factor in
American war activities, was dis
cussed by one in the thick OF the
practical work today at the meeting
OF the shipping section Of the Cham
Der of Commerce Of the United
States, which is holding its sixth an
nual meeting here.
The speaker was George J. Bald
win, senior vice president OF the
American international Corpora
ton, chairman OF the board Of the
American International Shipbuild
ing Corporation, which operates the
Hog Island and two other yards ;
president Of the Pacific Mail Steam
hip Company and chairman of the
Board of the New York Shipbuid-
ing Corporation.
Mr.. Baldwin expressed the view
hat the construction Of 400000O
dead weight tons of shipping can be
expected OF American yards in 1913.
He estimates approximately the
same tonnage from other countries.
Costs have increased 50 per cent,
he said, and added that wooden ship
construction still was an experiment
and had not yet been found satisfac
tory
He asserted that the preliminary
stage OF the building OF steel ships
was over and the actual race for
! peedy construction under way.
