RETRIBUTION

Russia presents a tragic and at the same time a pitable spec
tacle. Impoverished, drenched in blood, torn by turmoil and
racked by revolution, the people are surely to be pitied; yet It
is the bosom Of %retribution that is sweeping over the country
The nobility and property owning classes are the victims. These
have been the bcnefciaries of the wrongs committed against the
people for centuries.
Ever since the Russians thew up their hands, confessed
their i~neptitude and inability to maintain any sort of a govern
ment, and called in Rurik, the Scandinavian, to take. charge, the
car has been the absolute, despot of the country. All things
belonged to him, and he ruled all things. Russia was a populous
agricultural country, and land was the chico property. The
car apportioned this land out among his favorites, the nobility.
Estates covering from ten to forty or fifty square miles were
given to those who won his good will, and a princely palace
was erected for the comfort Of the new owner. 1t mattered not
that these lands had been cultivated for generations by the
peasantry, who thought they owned them. II they complained,
the knout or Siberia for them.
The lords Of these estates appointed agents to collect rents
from the peasantry, and squeeze out Of them everySkopek pos
sible, while they betook themselves to Vienna, London or Paris,
where they took expensive establishments, and where they lived
lives Of languorous and luxurious ohosty. The years made it
all the worse for the tenants, who were ground down more and
more, as the greater were the gambling losses of the lord Of
the estate. In the days of Lucreza Borgia and Marguerite de
Valois the Russian noble was in his glory, and ever since the
fifteenth century his successors have followed the pace then set
Absentee landlordism has been as big a curse to Russia as
it has been to Ireland, Idle vampires sucked the lifeblood oft
of the country and spilled it in the cutters of foreign capitals.
The toihng peasants were starved and stripped in order that
the nobility might splurge and spend. The descendants of these
peasants are now the Bolsheviki, who are robbing and killing
the descendants Of these landlords, thus, proving that the sins
of the fathers are visited upon future generations. This bloody
decree cannot be defended on the score OF justice; neither can
il be denied. There never was yet human power that could
cvade, If unforgiven, the vengeance OF a people who treasure
up wrongs inflicted on them, and the Russian peasant has a
good memory, The Russian nobility is receiving the same treats
ment as that meted out to the French nobility, for the same
reason and from the same class OF people.
The news scimitar. (Memphis, Tenn.) 1907-1926, 1919-03-15

Two French aviators had q dispute, and one challenged
the other to mortal combat. The challenged person had the
This is something new under the sun, French army men usually
choose the classic sword, and most OF them are skilled in the
use Of this weapon. The aviator who has been bringing down
boche flyers during the war no doubt fancies that he can make
good against one ehemy after having frequently met and con-
quered four or five in one contest.
If this can be called a precedent, the choice of weapons Is
much enlarged, and we may yet have duels between two tanks
or two U-boats or other submarines.
The police, however, have pronounced against this air fight,
for two reasons, One is there is a law against duels, and the
other is such a fight would be dangerous to the innocent
bystander on the ground. The w~reckage, falling from a great
height, would kill anyone it fell upon, and desperate duelists
would not hesitate to crash into each other. The duelists have
been told that they can 90 out over the sea and fight it out.
This might endanger the lives Of some Peter and his associates
among the fishermen. A duel of this character would prove an
event of great dramatic interest, and if properly filmed would
enrich the survivor of the combat, So great would be the
reward that the prize would be worth striving for, without the
incentive Of a duel. H.
French sviators should save themselves for better business
than dueing among themselves. The enemy is still over the
Rhine, and may visit France at any time, when French aviators
will be needed to drive him off,
