Failed to Follow the sherlff's Advice
Sheriff John Gowan of Big Stone
county, in an affidavit Monday to Gov,
ernor Burnquist, denies that he was
at the station at Ortonville the night
Of November II. when Ernest Lun,
deem. former Minneapolis congress,
man, charges that the sheriff assisted
in locking him in a refrigerator car and
deporting him. The sheriff alleges that
he was reliably informed that young
service men at Ortonville purposed to
prevent Lundeen, who was called q
pacifist, from speaking in Ortonville
He was warned to go home and let the
youths carry out their plans or fight
was likely to result, he says. The
sheriff told Lundeen Of the situation
and advised him to do nothing to pre-
cipitate trouble. Lundeen answered
that he had been In service and that
the sheriff couldn't bluff him, the afa.
davit stated. The former congress,
man was prevailed upon to go to his
hotel, but told that he was not under
arrest, the affidavit continues. Later
the sheriff learned that the would-be
speaker was being taken to the rail.
way station. He hurried there to pro.
tect the ex-congressman and to pre-
vent disorder, he states, but declared
the train with Lundeen aboard had

THE SPECTRE OF BOLSHEvISM

Referring in now recent New York speech to what he
termed 1.-THE spectre Of Bolshevism,' former President Taft
said: .
|. III it spreads over and destroys the ext ting govern
ments in. France and England and italy and threatens
them and includes the whole of Europe in its poisonous
and contagious influence, we must not minimize it's dangers
to our own civilization.
I'VE should not ignore the profound embarrassment
that we would have in our relations to a Bolshevist Europe
with is present civilization destroyed" re continued.
Looked At from either a selfish or a world point of view,
no higher duty ever was laid on the United States than
now At this critical juncture in the worlds affairs to unite
with the nations with whom it had won this war in arms
and brought Germany to her knees, to keep her in that
suppliant attitude and save her and you from that chaos
and despair Of further war and the inevitable triumph Of
Boishev1srn. There must be the united force Of a league
Of nations to stabilize conditions ana hold them until the
new nations created for the purpose shall have the
strength with which they>can play their part in making
the treaty Of peace effective.

CHAPTER XIV.

Mex morning as l started for my
office, I found myself combating q
strong impulse to call in at Ruth
Schuyler's. I had no errand there, and
knew that if she required my serv-
ices she would summon me. 1t was no
longer incumbent on me to try to UNI
ravel the murder mystery. Fleming
Stone had that matter in charge. and
his master-mind needed no assistance
from me. &
And yet, I wanted to stop at the
Fifth Avenue house, If only for a no.
well-being. Though above me in social
rank. the little widow seemed to me q
lonely and pathetic. woman. and I
knew she had begun to depend on me
for advice and sympathy. OF course,
she could turn to Fleming Stone. but,
in a way, he was adviser Of the
Schuyler sisters. n knew Ruth
hesitated to intrude on his time.
I was still uncertain whether to call
or not, and as I walked along the few
feet between my W house and the
Avenue, I crossed the street as I
reached Vicky VANS house, and nat
urally looked at it as I passed.

hesitated. Then I suddenly
thought of Ruth Schuyler. 1 owed her
a business fealty. and somehow I liked
to feel that I also owed her a per-
! sonal allegiance. and both these de-
! manded my efforts to avenge the
death Of her husband. irrespective of
where the blow might fall.

Conditions in Germany are far from reassurtng. and
there is room for grave doubt that, by the time the peace
conference has completed its statement of peace terms
ready for the acceptance of Germany, Sthere will exist in
the German empire any body competent to act for the
German people. and Of such standing that it can command
any measure Of confidence in the rest of the world. The
earlier al parent strength and solidity Of the Ebert gov
eminent seem now-to have been ilusory, and. it appears
that the long submissiveness of the German people to
drill and discipline has 50 destroyed their initiative that
they are left incapable of acting effectively in such a vital
matter as the organization of an orderly government for
themselves. Failing such action by the substantial masses,
the way is open for the activities Of relatively small. but
extraordinarily mischievous groups, Spartacides. Bolshe-
wiki, and what not, and these are now making the most
of their opportunities. .
The summary of disturbing events in Germany is
Within the past few weeks We have seen
what appears to be the outcropping of an imperialist con-
spiracy; the Bavarian assassinations, with the murder
Of Eisner; the attempt at Soviet government in Munich,
a like effort in Brunswick: a general strike which has been
successful, at least in the rupture of communications;
spartacan outbreaks in central Germany; the call for a
Soviet congress; evidences Of union between the indie
pendent Democrats with the spartacans to overturn the
Observation-Disclosures government; the weakness of that
government, as shown by its parleying with Bolshevists
workmens councils in the constitution which is Row in
course of preparation.
Z
The peace conference has made progress in the con-
sideration of a number Of matters Immediately affecting
Germany. While no figures have been given out, it is
stated that a substantial agreement has been reached
as to the amount Of indemnity to be demanded Of Ger
many. AS was to be expected the sum is much smaller
than the enormous sums which have been discussed as
the total which might justly be demanded. These seems.
western boundaries Of Germany and the treatment to DE
given the Rhine provinces. Alsace-Lorraine, Of course,
is to be restored TO France without condition. The ad-
joining great mining districts are, in a manner, to be added
to this French territory, but, with the lower provinces
on the west bank of the lshine,t are to be neutralized, and
to serve as a buffer between Germany and France and
Belgium. The commission having in charge the consid-
Grafton of the military situation has decided on a process
of German disa armament which will leave that nation
powerless to take the offensive against any nation. The
army Is to be reduced to the status Of a police force, rigid
provisions are to be made to prevent the unauthorized
manufacture Of armament of any kind, the defenses OF
the Kiel canal are to be destroyed, and the Notifications
on Heigoland are to be razed. These things, with the loss
of all her naval vessels, ought to make Germany a peace
full nation for some time.

Just before the adjournment Of congress a statement
was signed by 81 RepubncAns-since ss-all OF them SEN
ators or ssnators-elect. declaring that while they were
IN favor Of the creation Of a League of nations after the
under consideration, and believed that it should not be
accepted by the United States. Inasmuch as the treaty
Of peace to be adopted must be approved by the vote OF
Of the members Of the senate, and the resolu-
ton in opposition has been signed by more than one
third Of the men who will have to deal with that subject.
it is evident that unless there lis some change Of attitude.
q treaty incorporating this present league plan must be
rejected by the United States. That feature of the case
was discussed by Mr.. Taft in his New York address. The
former president declared his conviction that the league
plan ought to be made a part Of the peace treaty: that a
majority of the senate would refuse to amend the treaty
by striking out the league provision, and that then not
enough men could be found in the senate to assume re-
sponsibility for the rejection Of the peace treaty because
of their opposition to the league. I
