VIM. West Home is Burned.

The farm residencesof VIM. West
was destroyed by fire about noon
Wednesday. On going home for din
ner it was discovered by Mr.. Weat
and son Monte, and Which had not
been noticed by Mrs. West who was
busy preparing dinner. An extreme
ly high wind assisted the fla mes and
house and nearly all contents were
quickly destroyed. The loss is a
heavy one as the house was nearly
new and one of the best farm homes
around here though unfortunately
uninsured, and Mr. and Mrs. West
have the deep sympathy of all friends
in losing a home where cordial hospi-
tality was always freely extended to
to the frequent visitors there in the
past.

Fair Dates Sept "a

September Bird and 4th will be big
days for Villas county. The Agricul-
tural Society has set those days for
the county fair and this year that
event will be bigger and better than
ever. 1t is the fourth annual fair.
Since its inception it has improved
steadily, making it's biggest gains
this year in securing a permanent
site for fair purposes at the county
seat, and getting d substantial appro-
priation of $4,000 from the county
board for Improvements on the fair
grounds and other expenses of the
fair. This, together with the so per
cent of the premium money paid by
the state and the membership dues
of the society, is the only source of
the fairs income. The action of the
county board in so literally support
ing the effort to promote agriculture
in Villas county is highly commend
able, showing wise forethought on
the part of it's members. Money SO
spent will return ten-fOld in the course
of a very short time, bringing in
creased prosperity and development
to Villas county through the channels
of agriculture and it's resultant aids.
It is of vital interest TO every man in
the county to sign up and become a
member of the society. One dollar a
year is the price and the interests of
the county are surely worth that
small sum to any a

AIRPLANE USED
BY BOLS HEvIKI
INBOMBING raid
Enemy ReneWS BOmbardment
on Dvina Front; U. S.
Troops EvaCuate VIII
Iage of KadiSh.

Archangel, March .$-The Dol
sheviki took advantage Friday OF
the first clear day with the Their
mometer above the freezing point
by attempting to bomb the Ameri-
can positions on the Vaga from an
airplane. The machine was the first
one observed to bear the new red
army identification mark, a six
pointed red star. The bombs fell
without causing any damage.
Since the beginning of the CAM
paign last summer there has been
much confusion on both sides of the
lines because the 'bolshevik air
planes bore the old Russian mark
ing, a red, white and blue circle.
This was so similar to the marking
on the allied planes that it was hard
ly possible to distinguish the one
from the other.
The general situation on the Vaga
front was unchanged today Late
yesterday the enemy renewed his
bombardment on the Dvina.
On the railroad front the boil
sheviki yesterday afternoon twice
began Smelling, but were speedily
silenced by the allied guns.
The village of Kadish, which has
changed hands six or seven times,
is again in the hands of the boil
sheviki. The Americans found it
useless to hold the almost destroyed
village and withdrew to their old po-
sitions at the bridge across the
Emtsa river.
Hindenburg Planning Campaign.
Coblenz, March 9.-Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg is planning to use
volunteer units in a drive against
the bolsheviki, with Libau as the
base of his operations, it is indicated
by information which has reached
American intelligence officers.
According to the American ex-
perts, who in the line of their duty
are keeping in touch with the prog
ress of the REIMBURSEMENT of, the
enemys forces, German great head
quarters seems TO be following a
policy of secrecy as regards the
eastern front troop question. This
is believed to be due to the fact that
the bolsheviki now have a normal
organization and so will be
able. to utilize any information they
might obtain concerning their
enemy.
Apparently the German headqaar-
tiers staff in Kolberg is directing its
energies again toward organization
on the Baltic front in the confidence
that there is no longer any imme-
date occasion for concern over the
Polish front. Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg is in Kolberg.
The total number OF volunteers
now On the eastern front or about
to proceed there is estimated at
nearly 100000. Some of the old army
troops are now on the eastern front

that when the league plan comes
back to the United States, it will diff
fer very materially from that which

opinion that the incorporation of
such an amendment bill will not be

against the entrance of the United

CIVIL SERVICE
COMMISSION TO /
Be REORGANIZED
Members of Congress Seek
to Stay Clean Sweep Or
dered Unexpectedly by
President Wilson.

Washington, March 12.-Martin
A. Morrison of Indiana and George
r. Wales of Vermont were appoint
ed to the civil service commission
today by President Wilson, succeed
ing John A. McIlhenny and Hermon
w. Craven, whose designations were
sent to the White House some time
ago.
The fact that the president has de-
cided upon a complete reorganiza-
ton of the civil service commission
was disclosed today by efforts of
members of congress and others to
stay temporarily at least clean
sweep Of the commissions member
ship. Messages have been sent to
the president asking him to post
pone action until his return home.
Members of congress were shown
letter from the president to Com
missioner Charles M. Galloway,
asking the latter's resignation with
out assigning a cause. They were
told that a similar letter had been
received by Commissioner Hermon
w. Craven, and that Since John A.
McIlhenny, president of the COM
mission resigned month ago to go
TO Haiti as a financial agent, the
membership of three would be wiped
out by the designations.
Friends of Commissioner Gallo
way in congress communicated with
the president by wireless in an ef-
fort to have Mr.. Wilson withdraw
his demand for Mr.. Galloway's re-
tirement, but it was said at the
White House that an entirely new
commission would be appointed. No
explanation of the presidents de-
cision to reorganize the commission
was given.

INTERVENTION
IN RUSSIA URGED
BY GRAND DUKE
Declares Allies and President
Wilson for Recognition BoI-

ing Their Cause.

Paris, March l2-Former Grand
Duke Alexander Michaeiovitch, who
arrived in Paris recently from the
Crimea, told the Associated Press
today that unless armed allied in
tervention in Russia began at once
the situation in Russia would be-
come so hopelessly desperate that
it would take years to restore a
semblance of order in eastern Eu-
rope. The former grand duke, who
is brother-in-law of the former
emperor, continues:
Il do not ask the allies to fight
for us. We merely ask them to
keep order in the territories wrest-
ed from bolshemism by the govern
ments already fighting the soviet.
Disappointed in Paris.

attempt to help my country as a pri-
yate citizen. thought | would find

Gus to the peace conference than
the Russian problem? asked to be
allowed to go TO England, but was
refused passport, but they received

mission to visit America, not wish
ing to invite q rebuff"
Proposal Mistake.
Referring to the proposed confer
snee ON the Princes islands, the
grand duke said that the proposal
was a mistake, as the bolsheviki are
claiming that the allied govern
ments have recognized them be-
cause they feared the bolsheviki.
"On January rs" the grand duke
continued, seven days after the
Princes islands proposal, the boil
sheviki led my two brothers and
two cousins from the fortress of
St. Peter and St. Paul and shot
them without trial. They never
would have dared to do this un-
less they had been sure of the
moralsupport afforded by the semi
recognition by the peace conference.
Blackmail Allies.
"Had President Wilson come out
strongly and surely with repudia-
ton Of and nonrecognition of the
bolsheviki it would have encouraged
the governments warning against
them. Bolshevism will be the devil
in the future league of nations.
1T is my opinion that the Spar
tacan movement is kept going only
as a means of. blackmail against
the allies. When Germany has
used the Spartacans to the utmost
to blackmail the entente into send
ing food and granting mereiful con-
ditions of peace Spartacism will
