BRITISH PRINCE DEAD.
Youngest Son Of King George Had
Been III Since Birth.

yOUN9SSI S0H OF NiV9 rsOV9S NdO
Been III Since Birth.
London, Jan. o0.-Prince John.
youngest son Of King George, died Sat-
urday night. e
An official bulletin. issued last eve
ming says:
prince John. who since infancy had
suffered epileptic fits. which lately had
become more frequent and severe,
passed away in his sleep following an
attack at 80 p. m. Saturday"
The prince was possessed Of exuber-
ant spirits. He was the prime favorite
OF all classes and the idol OF the SER
wants and tenants at Windsor. 1t is
said that he was the favorite brother
Of Princess Mary. who loved to romp
with him. The prince was in his four
teenth year, having been born at Sand
ringham July IL, 1908.
From his earliest years the young
prince has been known as most demo-
cratic and most energetic and was to
the various royal residences much what
Quentin Roosevelt used to be to the
White House.
The cables carried a story once Of
Prince John having inveigled one of
the attendants into game Of cricket
beneath the windows of Balmoral
castle. In the course Of the game a
batted ball went thru costly window
and smashed q $4,000 vase belonging
to the DowaSer Empress of Russia.
Another story OF Prince Johns still
younger days-was " his reception pf
Edna Maud. then years old and a
famous child dancer. When the prince
f&d seen her dance and was introduced
to her in all her silks and spansles he
gave her a hearty kiss before the
whole assemblage.
One Of the favorite playmates Of
Prince John and his brother, Prince
Henry. was David Beatty, grandson Of
Marshall Field l of Chicago.

Death !. Sudden.

London. via Montreal, Jan. 20.-The
death Of Prince John, youngest son OF
King George. came so quickly and un-
cxpectedly Saturday night that there
was no time for the nurses who were
with him to summon the king and
queen to his bedside before he died
In recent years the delicate health
of the young prince made it necessary
that he always have an attendant.
Consequently he was never seen on
public occasions with the othSr mem
oers OF the royal family, but lived in
comparative privacy at F>raemore
House. Windsor, or at sandringham
palace. Public sympathy was ex-
pressed for the royal couples yester-
day in all the churches.

OvERTURN "THE DIRTY,
GOVERNMENT" SAID TROTSKY

The night before he started for
Russia, Trotsky, speaking to several
hundred of his East Side New York
followers, said:
81 want you men to remain here
and organize, and keep on organic
ing, until you destroy this dirty and
rotten government of the United
States-while l return to Russia,
bring on a revolution there, and stop
Russia's war against Germany"
Some months ago the American
Defense Society, keeping close track
of the movement which was then
under way for the purpose Of car
rying out Trotsky's command to his
followers, warned the officials of
every leading city that efforts would
be made by the Socialists and Anar-
chists and Bolshevists to bring about
a revolution for the purpose of de-
stroying the American government.
They were advised that the plan in
volved starting a strike first at one
point and then at another, testing
out at each place the ability of the
strikers to completely capture that
city, and the first city which came
completely under the domination of
these revolutionists was to be the
signal for similar revolutionary ac-
Invites in every city in America.
Seattle was the first place at
which the effort was tried, but the
backbone of the Mayor of that city
broke the strike and saved the coun-
try from a general campaign of de-
structlOn ana cnaOS.
Boston was another point at which
the effort was made, and now the
steel strike and many other strikes
are merely the fulfillment of the
statements made months ago by the
American Defense Society in warn
ing the officials of every city to be
ready.
These strikes are simply an effort
to definitely carry out Trotsky's
command TO his followers to be pre-
pared at the proper time TO overturn
the "dirty, rotten government of the
United States" Trotsky's speech was
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1919-10-14

made in a German hall. He went
from America through the co-opera-
ton Of Germany, and possibly some
Americans, for it is claimed that
somebody in this country had suf-
fcient influence to have this country
ignore a reported request from the
British not to permit his leaving
America. He was landed in Russia
through the cooperation Of Ger
Germany, and what he did in Rus
STA he and his followers and Ger
many unitedly are seeking to repeat
in America.
There are many innocent men who
are out on strikes, but every man in
this country who today is on a strike
is cooperating with Trotsky, with
the Bolshevists and with Germany
in their effort to overturn what
Trotsky called "the. dirty, rotton
government of the United States"
He who does not understand this
situation has little comprehension Of
the work that is under way. 1t is
time for the American people to
wake up.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1919-10-14

The Red Cross helped the SOL
diers-now the soldiers are helping
the Red Cross. Many discharged
men have become Red Cross secre-
taries to help the "other fellow" and
his family as he himself has been
helped.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1919-10-14

The government will care for the
disabled soldier and sailor, but as
sistance of Home Service sections Of
the Red Cross is necessary to find
the men who need this help. Indi-
viduals can assist by referring cases
of which they know to the Home
Service Section of the nearest chap
ter.
