Intentions Regarding Russia.

1--WE are not keeping large forces
to fight in Russia We have no in
tention of sending large British
armies to fight in Russia. If Russia
is to be saved she must be saved
by Russia. 1t must be by Russian
manhood, Russian courage, Russian
virtue that the rescue and regenera
tion of this once mighty nation, this
famous branch of the European fam
lily, can alone be achieved
THE aid which we can give to
those Russian armies who were called
into the field originally during the
German war, to some extent by their
own inspiration, and who are now en-
gagged in fighting against the foul
baboonery of bolshevism, can he
given by arms, munitions, equipment
and technical services raised upon a
voluntary basis. But Russia must be
saved by Russian exertion, and it
must be from the heart of the Rus
sian people and with strong arm that
>the conflict against bolshevism in
Russia must be mainly waged.
Therefore, it is an untruthfuI, ma
licious statement to say that it is
necessary for us 10 proiong the, action
of the military services because of
an enterprise which we have on foot
in Russia"

able to discharge our responsibilities

undefended.

ter of consumption. By common
action in this direction we shall
overcome a danger greater than the
danger of war. We will hold steady
situation which is fraught with
possibilities of hardship and suffer
ing to large part of our population;
we will enable the process of pro-
duction to overtake the processes
to overtake the processes of con-
sumption; and we will speed the
restoration of an adequate purchas
ing power for wages.
i am particularly gratified at the
support which the governments
policies have received from the or
ganized labor and / earnestly hope
that the workers generally will en-
phatically indorse the position of
their leaders and thereby move with
the government instead of against
it in the solution of this greatest
domestic problem.
Il am calling for as early a date
az practicable conference in which
authoritative representatives Of la
Dor and of those who direct labor |
will discuss fundamental means Of |
lettering the whole relationship of

Johnston discharged their duty

When statesmen differ upon
questions of such moment in

The above manly coneratulation
OF Mr.. Johnston ought to be the
keynote of every person who voted
for him. Those who voted against
Lee M. Russell are white democrats
as we'll as those who voted for him;
they were just in the minority on the

A Need Long Felt.

It is gratifying to the people
that the county superintendent
and the board Of education have
established an agricultural high
school in Monroe county.
A school of this character will
fill need long felt by the a&ri-
cultural people of the county.
and while its establishment has
long been contemplated. the de-
termination to establish it has
never fully materialized until
now.
The county superintendent and
the hoard, which responded to
the demands of the people living
in the rural districts of the county
are entitled to the commentator
of all our people for the progress
sive step forward. The work of
an agricultural high school will
reflected in the work shops. in
the counting rooms and on every
farm of the county.
The school board will meet
again on September ID for the
purpose of locating this school.
The several communities of the
county have been invited to make
claims and offer inducements to
secure its location. No greater
good fortune could befall any
community than to secure its To-
cation and lively contest will
probably result.
