Not unexpectedly articles are beginning to appear in
ervews with persons returning from Russia and the like
tending to create the impression that the bolshevi
not such bad fellows after all and at least they start
ing do something for the unhappy country, education
ally and otherwise. But other persons who better
hncwn and who are equally acquainted with conditions i'll
Russia tell US look with suspicion these statements
which part of systematic boshevst propaganda to
influence public opinion in America
Thus an article that has been widely circulated des
crbes the wonderful educational scheme put in operation
by the boshevki. But the records tell how many pro-
fessors in Russia universities and colleges murdered
by the boshevk simply because they refused to preach
their pernicous doctrines Many other respected edu
Gators managed to escape from Russia to civilized
tries and thus saved their lives.
A correspondent of the London Times who has been
visiting among the Russian peasants to learn their opin-
ion of the order of things tells of call at hum
BILE dwelling whose had been branded capital
list because he had possessed three horses and five
Four cows and horses had been equsoned and half
his land had been seized by the village "pauper commit
tee" with which to start commune.
The peasant asked he voted for members of the
local soviet "Oh no." he replied "they don't let me
vote once had nothing, but worked hard until l
ed this little farm Vasia here my helper. Of
course have no vote"
No person who employs another who property
except certain low value is allowed to have any vote at
ee tons Consequently he has representation in the
soviet This peasant remarked that the paupers were
very glad at first when they told all little
ongings would be divided up among them. But the
mttee kept most of it for themselves and the grain
never distributed and the paupers very
cry"
The original plan for robbing the frugal and indus
rious to support the poor bad enough instance of
class oppression, but what shall be said when the rob
bers keep the booty for themselves? Bolshevism is
founded the principle of oppression of the many for the
benefit of the few And it is this doctrine which mpu
dent and criminal foreigners seeking to impose
free America.-Tampa Tribune.

P0llyanna Coming.

Next Wednesday night is Pollyanna
night at the Arcade Theatre. You
will meet there all who have a feeling
for the better things of character and
life. The principle of happiness
which does not eat itself away in sell
fishness will glow like a wild flower
and none will be so poor in spirit
that he shall not leave the scene Of
siadness WITH a feeling that his hard
literal world is no longer thorn. All
the bands and trappings of toll will
be loosened for the evening by the
hands of imaginative sympathy. The
spirit of play will lead the way, and
curling and swapping with the Joy of
living not even a shadow of care can
get by the gates of your heart. 1t
will be a night at the theatre that
will cling to memory like ivy and har-
vest thought that will put a tonic
quality into living. The essence of
happiness will be yours by bringing
others to enjoy the red letter night,
and learn "the glad game" Get
your seats early, and be glad. The
appeal of Pollyanna is so absorbing
ly human and refreshing no one can
afford to miss it.
In the cast that will present tn glad
play in Palatka Klaw and Erlanger,
and Geo. c. Tyler are sending players
that are known here.
Miss Viola Harper, the youngest
leading lady on the American stage,
will play the leading part, that of Pol
lyanna Whittier, and prominent in
her support will be William Blaisdell,
George Allison, Garland Gaden, Fan
ny D. Hall, Helen Quincy, Gertrude
Rivers, Alice Baxter, A. W. MacCol-
lin, Halod Macarthur, and others.

CAPITAL DEMANDS PROFITS.

In the of the Saturday Evening Post
editorial points that industrial enterprises raising
capital through the sale of stocks at the present
time than before in their history But the direction
which investment capital takes is highly suggestive
The Post says The second greatest industry in the
try railroad transportation receives of this nourish
ing food
Why? The answer is simple. Investors demand
more profits than the railroads able to pay their
stocks chewing gum monograph factory will earn

publican members who are now run
ming are reelected, as the voters will
be putting the stamp of approval on
their past misdeeds. Does he now
think that he is doing the county a
favor by paying the office rent of his
law office?
I'VE all remember that Mr.. Rich
ardson had a resolution passed by the
Board Of Chosen Freeholders, when
he Joined the army, which would pay
his salary while in the service. He
was the only man OF the public pay
roll in any county position or any mu-
niclpal office who looked for 1t
What a regard for public funds.
"As to the mileage boOks-Mr.
Richardson says: 1t involved innum-
cradle conferences on road and I'M
anCe matters all owe the state Can
he possibly explain why he should
rambIe all over the state on o and
finance matters, that only involve
Middlesex County. No solicitor has
ever been called on in the past to
make more than a-half dozen trips
to Trenton in a year n a Ike num-
her to New York. Just why the pre-
sent solicitor should make seventy
five trips to each city Is a deep mys-
terry.
Il did not say that Mr.. Richardson
advised the letting of road contracts
without bids. but 1 asked him, as it's
legal guide, why he should allow it.
You well know that George Gundrum,
Andrew Reyes and the Public Utility
Construction Company have collected
among them in the last two years
large sums of money for road work,
which werc handed to them without
the formally Of a bid and contrary to
law. Let me cite you one concrete
case-Andrew Reyes of Woodbridge
collected $34,S$$ for rebuilding 1 mile
of road at ColOnia INT the work was
so poorly done that 1t did not last
six months. Perhaps that was from
the fact that Mr.. Reyes q no pre-
vious experience in that line of work.
Isn't the Public Utility Construction
Company at this present time repair
ing the River Road without having to
bid for It?
Mr.. Richardson complains of
this style of campaigning. l don't see
why, It's only a case of laying the acts
Of public officials before The people.
Don't complain about this style, of
campaigning, you as Mr.. Hilker's
campaign manager searched high and
low in order to get something that
might be effective campaign material,
and you didn't care how deep you
might go In tho mud. But 1 never
worried. l knew that you could not
dig up anything and when you
couldn't you resOrted to the charge
that ] am un-American-why?
