statement signed by herself and Berk-

a. tho anarchists farewell. was made
public yesterday By Mrs Ballentine. 1t
reads:
"Ihuty years ago an American re-
turned from Siberia with a most heart
rendins story Of the living death to
which politicals eNilcd in Siberia were
doomed by the ears of Russia. That
American was George kennan. Like
a. inspired apostle he went about this
country arousing the people to indig-
nation and protest against the crimes
and horrors perpetrated upon the best
and finest of Russia s youth because
OF their political and social opinions.
1t was kennan who, aided by other
liberal Americans, organized the first
society of the Friends of Russian
Freedom. With them Kennan labored
necessarily until two years ago. They
saw the hated Gar and his regime
hurled to oblivion and the Siberian
eAiies brought back in triumph from
tnelr living graves to free Russia.
history certainly repeats itself.
Dcmocratc America was the first to
offer asylum TO all political refugees.

against the growing enslavement of
their native land against the exile and

We have drawn wisdom from the
pure fountains of Emerson. rained

futiity of government
In truth we owe much to America
We are sure we cannot show our graft
tude IN better and fuller measure
lnan by rendering aid and comfort to
lhe American people in their war upon
tnelr INDUSTRIAL masters and their COR
rupt and despotic government. We will
therefore exert our best efforts to helm
the American people to freedom. even
as they have helped to free Russia
We, the first American political
refugees. Will yet live to see America
truly brave and truly free, and we will
be recalled by this land to rejoice with

anarchists earlier in the year.
Shortly after midnight on June the
anarchists planted a bomb, which it
was estimated contained twenty-five
pounds of dynamite, in the vestibule of
Judge Motifs home at 81 East Sixty
first Street. His family happened to
be in the country at the time. The
bomb exploded and killed a night

shooting Mr.. Frick there were reports
that he had married Miss Goldman in
New Jersey, but the marriage was
never recorded and at their trial for

Berkman and Miss Goldman made
their headquarters in New York, where
their magazines were published, but
they were known in every large city in
the United States, and also addressed
anarchist meetings in Canada, England
Australia, Holland and other countries.
These meetings enabled them to live
as comfortably as any despised CAPT
talist would wish. Admission fees
were charged, circulars sold and sub
scriptions to their magazines taken.
At the last meeting they addressed in
Chicago, prior to their deportation, the
contributions to help them fight de-
portation were $4,000. Miss Goldman's 5
handbook, seized when her magazine
was suppressed, showed weekly depos-
it's running from $50 to $500. with one
of more than $1,000. They lived at the

News Of the Soldiers.

We have been pleased to hear news
recently from w. Herman Merchent,
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. Harry Merchent
of Roanoke, formerly Of Shepherds
town. Herman is a graduate Of the
Register office and has been rejecting
credit upon his old friends and himself
by efficient service in France with the
American Army. He was proud to re-
ceive note from General Pershing
some time ago commencing him for
efficient and faithful work" He en-
listed in the army early in the war and
was soon in France. The past year he
has been located at general headquar-
tiers in Chaumont, being a member OF
Company II, 29th Engineers, and has
been doing linotype work. The work
of the printer is by no means unimpor-
tant, as every move of the battle line
must be recorded in type and maps.
This plant is not the base printing plant
of the u. S. Army in France, but an aux
iliary operated at general headquarters
for the general staff. printing charts,
maps, folders and summaries Of infor-
nation, all of which was strictly secret.
The plant came into existence in No
vember, 1917, with three printers and
handful of type. and now there are
twenty-four printers with two linotypes,
three job presses, folder, stitcher and
an abundance of type and material.
Herman is very anxious to come back to
the good old U. S. A., but sees no pros
pect in the immediate future.
By the terms of bill passed by Con-
gress and signed on Monday by Presi-
dent Wilson, every soldier, sailor and
marine, officers and privates alike, who
has been honorably discharged from
the service, or who will hereafter be
discharged, is to receive a bonus CT
$50.
Mr.. and Mrs. 10. L. Walper received
word the first of the week that their
son, Harry H. Walper, has arrived from
France and is now at Camp Dix, New
Jersey. They hope that he will get
home within a week or two.
