DYING BoLSHEVISM.

After of acute apprehension the world is be-
CHING to take the true of bOshevism Several
features of this phenomenon stand out boldly as land
marks for those who would guide themselves Alright Let
consider first the Russian brand of boshevsm and then
the Hungarian counterfeit.
More than year of Lennism and Trotzkyism in Russia
has enabled the world to apply the only true test to boshe
vism Is it good thing for the average man? Let the
average man in Russia He is hungry, penness
and in danger of violence He gets neither prosperity
security He has liberty that not subject to
collation. without notice Boshevsm is to be tyra
my by few inside grafters and traitors The boshevk
army is made up of dul-wtted and deluded former sol
diers and Chinese mercenares The fighting qualities of
these mobs are disclosed in the Archangel operations
where handful of trained allied troops lately destroy
ed over 700 bolshevki without any allied casualties
Lenine has taken millions of stolen rubles and applied
them to propaganda in allied countries He has made
Roadway among certain lghtheaded proportion of the
populations and among persons who are secretly willing
to the world plunged into anarchy in the hope that
they may snatch riches instead of working for them But
Lennnes propaganda is losing rapidly the facts belle
his claims and his false promises Even the stupdest
moujk now sees disparity between Lenines promises
and his performances,
The hour is nearly at hand when Lenne will be in the
position of Madero of Mexico who promised the peons
land bread prosperity and liberty, without being able
deliver the goods He first applauded then doubt
ed then assassinaed Lenne is arch assassin, while
Madero merely rainbowchaser The taking off of
Lenne by one of the millions who he has wronged is a
certainty if he remains in Russia With his removal the
boshevist system would collapse
1t now seems to be decided that the allied governments
will not recognize Lennes government" This decision
reason and the only astonishing point in connection with
the subject that the allies shauld have considered
dealing with Lenne a governmental authority, With
in few days, matters going it will be appar
ent to the whole world that Lenine and boshevism
both impotent frauds.
The Hungarian revolution is not boshevsm at all, but
mere counterfeit of it, in which the Magyars don fierce
whiskers and below out blood-curdng oaths designed
brighten the allies few inclusive thrusts by French
agents have exposed the sham The Magyars not su
ering from the dementa the Russian Lenniss,
but from sharp attack of hunger and unkerism, ag
gravated by the temptation rob their neghbors at what
seems an opportune time Gen. SHUTS has already dis
covered that the Magyars turn from their roaring to
gently sucking doves when he discusses revision
of boundaries In Tire belief that they have frightened
the allies a that SHUTS is there bride them with their
hbors lands, the Magyars forget their bolshevism
al fawn unon the allied euissarv
OF course the allies would be guilty of combined
blunder and crime if they should yield inch of non
Magyar territory the Budapest branch of the German
conspiracy There is ground for fearing that Cen
SHUTS will violate the territory of the Roumanans,
Czecho- Sovaks or Serbs for the sake of buying fhe
Magyars He has already had the advantage of confer
ring with the French officers in that region and is fully
aware of the phantom character of the alleged boshevs
uprising
Bolshevism has thrived only in Russia, where hard
ships tyranny and widespread ignorance made seed
bed of superstition and creduty in which any rank
growth could sprou and spread 1t is dying its
while sanity and truth retaining their sway
mastered the ferocious and powerful armed force
that mankind has Seen vicors of the world
and under God they fear nothing They and will de-
stroy any enemy OF liberty wherever found-Washing
