BoLsHEyIsM BEATEN AGAIN.

There are sure signs that the world
is recovering from the mental dis
turbances caused by the Great War.
The greatest of these mental dis
turbances Is BoIsheyism. Thoughtless
people did not seem to realize that the
new order in Russia was purely neu-
rotic-a clear case of nerves on the
part OF the semi-barbaric people of
the Muscoyite Empire. And our W
neurotics, In parlors and without,
could not see in their state of mind
that Bolsheyism was nothing moro nor
less than q swing from one autocratic
system Of government to another au-
tocratic system of government. One
no better-and no worse-than the
other.
If the violent swing OF the pendu-
lum is not moderating In Russia, it as
suredly it IN the western lands. In
the election In Massachusetts and
France recently the Bolshevists were
everlastingly showed under.
Now we hear from Winnipeg. Some
months ago, the B~olsheviks started a
general strike in Winnipeg with the
clearly-proved intention of taking
over the local government. Having
in mind the experiences during n like
effort in Seattle last January. they
met with some successes at the be-
ginning. For W weeks or more, the
situation in Winnipeg certainly was
fierce; the whole populace seemed to
be on strike" But presently the
forces of law and order. and also Of
Justice and righteousness, began to
get the upper hand and the thing
called "strike,'' misnamed for civil
war, slowly died down and out.
But the municipal election was ap-
preaching. The Bolshevists, notwith-
standing their repugnance to democ-
racy and any expression OF majority
rule. determined to grab the city gov
eminent by h orderly lnethou OF
the ballot box. They nominated a
candidate for mayor, one S. ]. Far
mer, while the friends of democracy
re~nominated Mayor Gray who went
through the revolution staunchly
fighting the Bolshevists at every turn
Thus the issue was clean II The
election a just been held. In a total
of something like $4,000 votes. Mayor
Gray has won by o rousing majority
over $500 at latest accounts.
The people can always be depended
upon for sanity In the long run.

will not be so cowardly. There was
not a moment in the life of the last
