MACON, Ca, June 10.-Five of our
churches, two schools and a lodge hall
were fired at almost the same hour
in Putnam county, middle Georgia.
with indications pointing to concerted
action by a party of white men who
have revived what in days following
the Civil war was known as the Klu
Klux Klan. No clues to the incen-
diaries have been found by officers,
who claim to have made a thorough
search.
A clash between an unknown Negro,
and white merchant at Dennis Sta
tion, near Eatonton, is said to have
been the origin of the outbreak. The
man asked for bottle of pop as the
merchant started to close his store
and was refused. He is alleged to
have made some remarks concerning
at least being courteous on a hot
night, and this was resented by the
white. Companions of the Colored
man took up the quarrel. Before it
ended, pistols appeared, and many
shots were exchanged, no fatalities re-
sulting.
One of the churches DESTROYED was
Ward Chapel, situated in community
where William H. Seward once taught
school. The chapel was over one hun
dred years old. At mass meeting
of white people $1,000 was raised as
reward for running down the indi'
viduals who fired the buildings A
similar amount has been asked for OF
Gov. Hugh Dorsey. The whites have
also raised several thousand dollars to
help rebuild the burned buildings The
destruction of the property was con
demned in mass meetings Of both
races.

RUSSIA FIGHTS
 ID WIN FREEDOM.
Admiral Kolchak Reiterates Belief in Democracy and Says BoIshevism Is Destroying the Very
 Foundation.

Omsk, Siberia, via London, April 23.- Admiral Kolchak, head of the all-Russian government, speaking in Ekaterinburg before conference of members of the duma, zemstov and other organizations, reiterates his be- lief in democracy in Russia, declaring 1t to be ''the only admissible form of future government"
 Bolshevism, he said, is destroying the very foundation of authority in the country and means a desperate struggle for a long time.
 At present, he pointed out, condi- tions sometimes force the government to employ means which do not corre- spond with principles of democracy, but he assured his hearers that such measures were temporary and that steps were being taken to insure uni versal suffrage, labor and land legis- lation and to develop organs of sell government.
 "The government endeavors to maintain and strengthen friendly re- lations with the allies," said the dicta- tor. Russia was alarmed by the invi- tation to send her delegates to Princes Island to negotiate with bol- sheviki. Now this question is settled. The statesmen of western Europe now see the truth and blame the bolshe- wiki, calling them murderers and ter rorists, as did Lloyd George.
 "The government is inspired with the ideal of restoring the motherland. It is not called to settle all fundamen- tai questions. The Russian people is master of it's fate. Released from the yoke of bolshevism it will, thru it's representatives in a national assem- bly,, express it's will in regard to it's form of government and it's social structure. Then the present govern ment will transfer it's power to such an authorized government
