eoLshEVIsT IN OFFICE

migration inspector at Ellis island, presided over Bolshevik meeting in New York, he was either a fool or knave. If he did not know what he was doing he does not know enough to be an immigration inspector. If he knew what he was doing he is too dangerous to be at large.
 It is not improbable that he is one of the parlor Bolshevists who become enamored of a theory because it is different. These faddists are just as apt to be captivated by one theory as another. But assuming that Howe sanctioned for America that which Lenine and TrotZky inflicted on Rus sia. He must have given his mental assent to the Bolshevik proposition that all existing governments should be destroyed as quickly as possible, and among them the United States government, which employs him.
 It will not do for such men to plead that they are simply devoting them selves to the basic American ideals of liberty and justice. The Bolsheviki do not believe in those ideals. They be- lieve, not in the rule of the majority, but in the dictatorship of class and, in actual operation, the rule of the minority. They would overthrow the United States government with great CT satisfaction than they would de- stroy any of the European govern ments, for they realize that the United States is the most powerful pillar of civilization We have but to cast our eyes about us to see what they would accomplish if they could. The bomb outrages and the revolutionary strikes reveal to us what they have in their minds and hearts.
 A government official who would lend the sanction of his presence to their designs is inviting the destruc tion of the government he has sworn to serve.
 Not long ago a meeting of Bolshe- wiki, calling themselves socialists and l. w. w. held meeting in Salt Lake and one of the speakers declared that it was planned to divide the United States into twelve self-governing soviets.
 The analysis of Bolshevist theories, however, can never impress upon our minds the horrors of Bolshevism. We must know what it is in practice to understand it's true tendency. And when we have saturated our minds with Bolshevism as applied in Russia we shall begin to understand the enormity of Howe's offense. A quota tion from an article by British secret service operative, which appeared in London Tit-Bits, reveals Bolshevism in action. He writes:
 Not long ago a fete was held to celebrate the anniversary of the crea- tion of Lenine's army. On this oc- casion there was general raid on the homes of the upper and middle classes for food, which was then used to give a free banquet to the scum of the population.
 At intervals during the days num- bers of citizens of the middle class type, who are hated by the Bolshe- vists, were led out of the prisons to be executed in public for the amuse- ment of the mob.
 In the evening middle-class women and girls were placed at the mercy of ruffians who had proved themselves faithful supporters of the Bolshevists.
 News was received recently from southern Russia that the Red Guards, on the pretext of searching for arms, are entering houses and carrying oil women and girls. The women are taken into the soldiers rooms-and often dead bodies are seen in the street the morning after.
 Women of gentle birth are being ! made to clean tho dirtiest quarters of the town. They are shamefully treated in the barracks. and disappear for days.
 Owing to the spread of Bolshevism the life of no woman in Russia is safe. By recent inquitious decree which
