DRAWING IN
ON REDS

LONDON. May 31.-The evacua-
ton of Ordenburg, one Of the last
Bolshevik strongholds in southeast
ern Russia, is suggested in a Rus
sian official wireless message from
Moscow. The message said the Boil
sheviki abandoned Tatikevo, west of
Ordenburg, under enemy pressure,
and drew back their flank to the lat
ter city, on the Samara railway line.
A telegram from Omsk received
today in London said Siberian troops
of the Kolchak government ere
storming Ordenburg on May FL. 1t
was through Ordenburg that the
Bolsheviki maintained communica-
tion with Turkestan and China.
From Ordenburg Kolchak will be
able to join his front with that of
the Ural Cossacks and thence with
he line held by General Denekine.

TO SECURE
RACE EQUALITY
HURTS JAPS
ARE KEENLY DISAPPOINT-
Ed" WRITES EDITOR OF
PAPER

TOXIC, June Failure of the
Japanese delegates to secure the in
PRODUCTION of an equality of races"
clause in the league of nations cove
nant caused deep disappointment
throughout the Japanese nation and
has led to a serious determination
on the part of the Japanese people.
The disappointment was all the
more bitter because at first q dis
patch came from Paris announcing
the adoption of the racial clause.
Japanese who frankly discussed
the problem said they could not un-
derstand on what standards Japan
was judged to be a first class power.
If it were merely because Japan was
strong in a naval and military
sense, this was not f~lattering to the
Japanese amour-propre, who would
much rather have 1t based on stand
ards Of civilization, capacity and cul-
ture. Yet small countries like Hol-
land and Belgium, they said, are
placed on a footing equal with the
United States, France and England.
"We are keenly disappointed"
wrote the editor of one paper. at
is as if we had tumbled fAom q very.
high precipice. We must look into
our hearts, examine ourselves rig
idly and see why we are not per-
mitted to join the other nations of
the world on a footing of real
equality"
The Osaka Mainichi said: "The
adoption Of the American amend
ment for the Monroe Doctrine and
the failure of the racial amendment
affords a most glazing contrast as
between a great success for the
United States and a great failure for
Japan"
The Toxic Asahi says: part of
the blame should be placed at the
door of European and American
statesmen whose political conscience
has been so besotted that they do
not understand or respect the prin-
ciple of justice and humanity except
when it is politically used to their
advantages"

GERMAN LAW MAY
MAKE WORKING
COMPULSORY
BILL READY FOR NATIONAL AS
SEMBLY GREETED WITH
SARCASM

BERLIN, June 4.-The Imperial
Voorhees, committee has prepared a
bill for the national assembly which
If enacted into law might put a
considerable premium on idleness.
Ostensibly the bill is designed only
to give a living to millions of Ger
mans out of employment but it goes
so far that the man who works
would be at a disadvantage. )
In the first place a nan would be
considered without employment even
though he declined an offer of work.
Employment must come only
through his solicitation. When out
of work each man would receive ten
marks a day, his wife four marks
and children under IA two marks.
The German newspapers are treat
ing the proposal with varying de-
grees of sarcasm.

is not allowed to take any indus
trial step that would help her people
here at home. Why, the British gov
eminent even refused me a passport
when / wanted to go to America TO
place the natural advantages of
Limerick before your investors and
shipowners. So here we are, high
and dry, with the ocean of pros
perity all around rs.
1--WE could only take the steps
necessary to develop this country If
we we're assured ireland would be
allowed to make its own laws and
provide it's own government, for in
no other way would We give Ameri-
can investors any guarantee that
England would not tax their invest
ments out of existence.
81 don't have a great deal OF
faith in what the rest of the world
is going to do for us unless we do
something for ourselves. We have
stated our principles, and at the
present moment a government of the
people of Ireland is in office in
Dublin. OF course this government
can't have any real power until
England withdraws her army OF
occupation and that can only be
brought about by pressure from out
side of Ireland"

WAR VETERANS RETURNING TO english SCHOOLS

the fighting of August and Septem-
Der of 1914 and the coming forwar I
of the newly trained territorials ,n
the spring of 1915. This immedi-
ate response to the call of the coun-
try and the personal courage and
devotion of these young men a
complete and decisive answer to any
class jealousy or feeling that the
workers we're being made to bear
the brunt.
I'VE doubted how many Of the
men would want to come back"
continues the master. I'VE are find
ing that practically every man who
possibly q is applying to be taken
back, at any rate for shortened
courses BLASTING on an average of
one and two-thirds years) and al
ready the colleges are ov~erfull."
The general tone and character of
these men is described by Balliol's
master as remarkably high. There
is quite al much life and cheerful
activity as before the war and q
great deal more seriousness OF pur-
pose. The master notes not only Il
marked improvement in the strength
of character shown by the returning
students but that they even gained
intellectually what they had lost in
book knowledge and have more than
made up for this loss by the power
of coming to the point, and by a
sense of reality about their work.

LIMERICK, Ireland, May 90
The Irishman's claim to political
independence is not wholly senti-
mental, according to Alphonsus
O'Mara, mayor of Limerick and n
OF it's leading manufacturers. There
is, he Says, a much more practical
side to the question, the desire for
economic independence and the OPP
%portunity for industrial advance
ment which the Irishman feels he
can never attain until he is per-
mitted to make his W laws and
deal authoritatixsly with his own
problems.
Material advantages have come
out of every movement of the Irish
for freedom, but the main griev-
.ance remains" said Mr. O'Mara.
THE one point is we are heavily
overtaxed. This year England is
making a profit of twenty millions
out of us. That is she is taxing us
thirty-five millions and giving us a
government which costs her no
than fifteen millions. These figures
are not ours but hers. We have
England's word for it.
ireland has improved its posi-
ton in the past years, but We have
not advanced industrially. We lack
capital and we lack confidence be-
cause England and England's states

STRAY ALASKA DOGS
FROM POUND
AND HUsKIES PROVES
UNPOPULAR

ANCHORAE, Alaska, June A.
Ever since the time that the first
white men began combing the gray
els of Alaska streams for the yell
low dust that spells fortune, dogs
the Alaska malamute and husky
have been his main reliance. They
have furnished the white mans prin-
cipal mode of travel, have proved
his invaluable friends on many an
occasion where life or death hung
in the balapce-and the recent ter
ritorial legislature proved the depth
of the sentiment felt toward the
dog when 1t refused to pass legisla-
ton permitting war on wild dogs.
There were petitions for this leg
islation from several sections of the
territory. In Anchorage, at least,
a private war on wild" dogs
meaning the animals which have
been turned loose by their owners
in the spring to forage their own
living-has been waged relentlessly.
Poisoned meat has killed up to this
time more than 80 of the animals to
which living without care of an
owner means a constant fight for
the survival of the fittest.
The war has proved decidedly un-
popular, for no matter IL garbage
cans are upturned by the hungry
animals in quest of food, the senti-
ment connected with the Alaska dog
is deep in the heart of most north
erners. On the other hand. there is
no law in unincorporated towns of
the territory which permits Of the
licensing or impounding of stray
dogs. Once a pound was established
here, but the owners of dogs taken
there demanded their animals back
without payment of subsistence
charge or penalty-and they won,
The pound died.
Finally came the attempt to make
the legislature deal with the situa-
ton. In the meantime the self
appointed committee-One person,
the authorities believe-began the
work of discriminating the stray
dogs of Anchorage. The Anchorage
authorities are seeking that per-
sons identity. The legislature has
>remained true to the dog.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1919-06-07

This. he concludes, shows that
their previous university education
was far too bookish and abstract in
type and neglected too much the
intellectual effect of beginning
things at the practical and concrete
end. These returned men are not
only keener to work but they work
with more swiftness and directness
than before they went out; for, as
n of them said, that you had to do
a lot of thinking in the trenches or
else your number was soon up"
Oxford has made many conces-
sions to these men which the mas
ter regards as justified by the show
ing they o are making in their
studies. Formerly nine terms resi-
dence was required to obtain an Ok
ford degree, now the men who
served in the army are excused from
half this requirement and from
some Of the examination require
ments. These concessions will en-
able the majority of them to take
their degree and go into the profess
sion only a year or two later than
would have been the Ease but for
the war.
I'm character and in general in
%tellectual development they will be
better men than they would have
been under normal conditions and,
in intellectual equipment of knowl-
edge, hardly, IL at all, inferior"
writes the Ballial master.

MAYOR OF Limerick DISCUSSES irish Freedom

those essentials which make for self
government of the mass and there
fore of the individual. Our farm
ing population, absorbing this SEN
timent through oft-reiteration, have
withheld their money when it was
needed by Irish enterprise. They
have deposited it in banks, vast
sums of it, and the money has been
loaned to Englishmen for the de-
velopment of English industry.
Limerick some rs years ago had
a. prosperous mercantile marine.
Now the Shannon bears not on it's
bosom a single ship that can call
Limerick its home port.
"Also we had a fine textile in
dustry, with more textile workers in
Ireland than there were then in
England. But that has gone the
way of the ships.
1--WE have here the finest river in
the world for shipbuilding. We
could line the shores Of the Shannon
with busy shipyards and workshops.
But the people who would take the
initiative have not the money, and
because we are told we are not ca
pable of self-government, the people
who have the money will not lend 1t
to those who could use it.
1.-THE world is passing through
an industrial crisis. Every nation
America, England, France and
even Germany. is making prepara-
tions for world trade. But Ireland
