SERIOUS TROUBLE
AMONG e0lSHEWSTS
WORKMEN REBEL AGAINST THE
AUTHORITY OF THE SOVIET
GOVERNMENT

LONDON, May 21.-The Bolshe-
vik government of Russia is re-
ported to be beset by grave internal
troubles, especially in North Russia.
Definite evidence of disaffection
among workmen in that district has
been exhibited recently by hostile
demonstrations against the Soviet
authorities, by strikes and sabotage.
The Bolshevik financial position
is rapidly growing worse. Reports
submitted by Krestinski, commits
sary for finance, for the second half
of 1918, show a deficit owing to
the fact that the single a. on the
possessing classes" which was esti-
mated to yield 100000 900
rubles, yielded only 450,000,000 as
the townspeople of the possessing
class" were financially exhausted
and the peasants offered armed re-
sistance to forced payment.
A large wing of the Menshevik,
or moderate party has refused to
adhere to the Bolsheviki and adopt
ed the following program.
Opposition to Bolshevik rule,
which is declared to have resulted
in chaos and the destruction of ma
tional life in Russia"
Revival of capitalism on demo-
cratic lines rs being the only means
of restoring Russian industry and
commerce with the outside world.
The converting of a constituent
assembly, to be elected by general
franchise.
Restoration of the old frontiers
of Russia, exclusive of Finland and
Poland, with a grant of local politi-
cal autonomy and a federative tie
uniting such territories as desire in
dependence.
State control of industry, as OPP
posed to workmen's control.

NO REGRETS FOR GERMANY

There is not one excuse that can be found for sympathy
with the Germans, hard and harsh as some of the conditions
imposed upon them may seem. A man who gets drunk and
smashes up his neighbours house must pay the costs of it ALL
Why should the man whose family may have been outraged,
whose life has been threatened and whose family may have
been outraged by such a fellow be made to make good what
his assailant has done?
Nor is there any longer any excuse for speaking of the
'poor people, as distinct from their bad rulers" The
people went with their rulers, not only sustained them, but
encouraged them. Of course, they had been mistaught, blu!
they embraced those nefarious teachings with gladness. The
professionalism the "herr professors" were the worst of
the whole lot, worse than even the military brutalists, for
they squared all things with the learning of the books, or made
the books square" with the practices, and the preachers sane
toned it in their pulpits.
The whole nation, from top to bottom was crazy on the
subject of growing greater by stealing their neighbours lands
and mines and industries. They sowed the wind collectively
and now collectively they must reap the whirlwind. That is
all that the peace terms mean for them.

FEDERATING THE PROFESSORS

In the University of Illinois a group of professors have
organized themselves into Union No. 1 and have sought affilia-
ton with the Federation of Labor. Let it be hoped that those
college professors may have as good common sense as charac-
terizes most of the labor unions.
But we are afraid they will have much less, for they
are pretending to be something which they are not and they
are apt to turn out sheer theorists who will improve no cOndi-
tons, although they may add considerable to the prevalent
discomfort.
LabOring men who form unions have something definite
in mind and they are organized to bring that about. 1t is
etirely different from forming a union for visionary pur-
poses. These professors are paraded as "intellectuals" but
does it follow that one is af intellectual being because he
holds a professorship?

SHERMAN OPPOSES
PEACE LEAGUE
IN TREATY
REPEAL MEASURE MAY BE
KEPT IN COMMITTEE
By SENATE

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 21.-
Senator Sherman announced today
that he would introduce a resolu-
luton on Friday proposing that the
reparation provisions of the league
of nations covenant be removed
from the peace treaty.
The opinion seemed to gain
ground that all repeal measures
would be kept in committee until
after July 1, notwithstanding the
presidents recommendation for re-
peal of the wine and beer provision
of the war time prohibition law.
Prohibition leaders expressed con-
fidence that enforcement measures.
would be enacted before then.

ALLIES HAVE BIG JOB
TO CLEAN TURK CITY.

CoNSTANTINoPLE, May 90
Constantinople is being cleaned up
by the allies and soon 1t will be
like q western European city. The
regeneration of Turkey is commenc-
ing with a general sanitary cam
paign in which the American Red
Cross commission to the Balkans
has been asked to aid.
American sanitary engineers Of
the Goethals type are badly needed
out here" declared an American
physician. Sewage systems must
be installed throughout the near
East in hundreds of towns. Con-
stantinople must be cleaned up till
it looks like a Swiss housewives
kitchen. Mosquito netting by the
millions of bales must be brought
over. Local doctors do not believe
in the screening of sick beds or of
hospital windows. They must go to
school again in their profession.
Swamps and unhealthy valleys must
be drained. The people must be
driven out of the filthy centers of
disease into the open country where
the sun can get at them and where
they can engage in healthy farm
work.
Sometimes" said the Red Cross
doctor, ST feel an irresistible desire
to gather ten thousand Of these un-
fortunate wretchs together, strip
them of their c%razy-quilt bundles Of
veyniin-irfested rags. force them
all into a vast petroleum pool, then
into a great tank of clean water. 1
would give them one and all a pair
of American shoes, a pair of over
aljs and a sweater.
THE roads over which we arc
trying to get our automobiles, filled
with Red Cross supplies for the
cpderfed of central Serbia, are quite
in passable. From Saiol'ki to Ps'-
grade the roads are lind with tens
Of thousands of skeletons and rot-
ting carcascs of animals Soldiers
graves, thinly screened with earth,
skirt the highways. No wonder
there are dozens of cases Of typhus
in every city in Serbia.
What the Near East needs is
several divisions of American plumb
ers, railroad men, sanitary engi-
neers, doctors. nurses, white wings,
building contractors, druggists and
prescription clerks, farming machine
statesmen, experienced cootie mill
operators, army bakers and coat and
pants statesmen with East Side ex-
perience. The first boatload to
leave Toulon or New York should
contain the plumbers" declared the
physician.

THE SILVER STATE

The San Francisco Chronicle of Monday pays the follc
tribute to Nevada:
The statehood of Nevada was a product of the
Civil war. At the time it was not supposed to be
much of a state, except in area, but was needed for
constitutional reasons. But it has kept fooling the
country ever since.
When they began to dig out silver by the ton
from the COmstOck groups of mines, Nevada lost its
original name of "the ~Sagebrush State and became
known to the whole world as the "Silver State"
And in those days silver wa a metal which man.
kind set great store by, as it seems likely to do
again if one may judge by the price it brings since
Uncle Sam got off the lid.
But recent developments in the Divide district
seem to indicate another change of name, for they
do say that the gold is so thick just a little under the
surface that the owners of the mines refuse to dig it
lest they be ruined by the excess profits tax. They
just take out a shoveful or two from time to time
to pay living expenses and sit tight over the hole
where they took it out till they need a little more.
Possibly, also, these mine owners are influenced by
patriotism as not wishing to disturb values by flood
ing the world with gold and thus adding to the
economic confusion. California has hitherto taken
pride in calling itself the Golden State,' but even
in Nevada they are getting ready to demand the belt
and the title and say they are going to get it.
And with all due allowance for newborn enthu-
siasm and for the picturesque way in which prosper
Gus miners are wont to express themselves, if a tenth
of what is claimed is true-and it may be-we may
expect the people of Nevada to change from the most
loyal of silverites to the most determined and ir-
reconcilable gold bugs. Circumstances do alter cases.
That they have found a lot of gold is certain.
But Nevada is a good state, anyway. We in Cali
fornia do not know what we should do for meat if
Nevada did not supply us from its far-flung cattle
ranges. And it is good beef, too. And while good
Nevadans- hesitatingly concede that their rich val
leys are not so extensive as those of California and
that the intervening Sierras do temper rather Sc
verely the warm breezes from the Pacific, they can
%truthfully say that such valleys as they have are
wonderfully fertile and that every drop of water
which can be caught or pumped is being put to
beneficial use. For many reasons-the energy, enter
prise and full-blooded American loyalty of its people
for one ng-Ne is a state to be proud of and
an excellent state to move into.

AN EXAMPLE OF AMERICAN WAR economy

Some bright dollar a year man who did not know what
a curry comb was for placed orders that aggregated 2i,OOO,
600 of such combs for an estimated 100000 of horses to be in
France ultimately. How many curry combs that is, we can
not take time to figure out, but it is said that the government
in getting twenty-six curry combs for each horse
and mule i'm France. Those wise dollar a year men with
silk hats and kid gloves had never heard that one curry comb
is generally used on several horses, that one man needs
only one curry comb, or two at the most, and that he can
take care of several horses, probably twenty-six. Forum
ately, for the taxpayers, all the combs ordered were not made
or delivered and the order for them was, no doubt, counter
in time to save the salvage.

RUMAN|AM ORPHANS
APPEAL FOR SHOES
AMERICAN RED CROSS Is UN-
ABLE TO MEET DEMAND
FOR CLOTHING

BUCHAREST, May 21.-Twenty
thousand Rumanian war orphans
through the Rumanian War Or
phan society send out to the chill
dren of America an appeal for old
clothes and shoes. A pair of shoes
costs a fabulous amount in Bucha-
rest and the price OF a suit of
clothing is prohibitive. Thread is
two dollars a spool. Undercloth-
ing costs SIS a suit. The cheapest
pair of shoes costs 500 and for q
suit of shoddy material $3.50 is
asked. Wool cloth is $24 a yard.
The American Red Cross commits
sion to Rumania is totally unable
to meet the demand for clothing.
Colonel H. Gideon Wells, of the
American Red Cross who is CO.
operating with the War Orphan So
ciety, has appealed to American
school children to sort out their
old clothes and old shoes for even
tual shipment to their needy little
allies in far-off Rumania.
Queen Marie and Prince Carol
of Rumania are intensely interested
in the work being done by the
American Red Cross for the war
orphans of Rumania. Prince Carol
is actively cooperating with the
Red Cross which has distributed
tens of thousands of cans of con-
densed milk to the babies.
American doctors are having a
hard fight to overcome the epidemic
of smallpox which has broken out
in all parts of Rumania and which
is taking heavy toll of the children.
The war orphans are being vaccin-
ated wholesale.

Russia to explain to the people and
the different Russian governments

AMERICA IS GREAT
BEET SUGAR RAISER
SEED BEING SUPPLIED BY THE
UTAH AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE

LOGAN, Utah, May 21.-Sugar
beet seed, equal, and frequently SUI
perior to European seed, is being
supplied to sugar beet companies in
this section by the experiment sta
ton of the Utah Agricultural col
lege, here. Originally, the seed
came from a strain Of the best
seed produced IN Europe and it has
been carefully cultivated by the
experiment station for Is years.
Due to the fact that war condi-
tons cut off the supply of European
seed it became necessary for farm
ers in this country to cultivate their
own seed and the efforts of the ex-
pertinent station have been in this
direction for some time and there
has been developed a strain of pedi-
greed sugar beet seed that is hardy
and in every way suited to western
conditions. Sugar companies in
Idaho, Utah and other western
states have been purchasing the
seed produced by the experiment
station of the college and in some
instances have developed new
strains from those purchased.
Authorities at the college de-
clare that the United States is
rapidly becoming independent of
Europe for it's sugar beet seed sup
ply.

been made to utilize this waste pro-
duct as fuel for the boilers of the
sugar mills and now a Cuban in
ventor claims he has invented al
apparatus which will permit the use
of the molasses as fuel without
choking the furnaces.
All the sugar mills produce more
molasses than can be marketed and,
it is asserted, twice the amount
needed to furnish fuel for steam
power.

MIXTURE OF JAPS AND
KOREANS IMPOSSIBLE

SEOUL, May Identification Of
the Japanese and Korean races is
impossible, asserted the organizing
committee of the independence
movement in Korea in a statement
which it has issued setting forth
the grievances of the Korean peo-
pie against the Japanese.
The two chief reasons for Korea's
effort to obtain emancipation from
Japanese rule are set forth by the
committee as follows:
Korea is the much older Of the
two nations for 1t has a history of
organized government extending
over a period of 1900 years. Dur
ing a part of that time Korea sent
tribute to the court of China, but
this was nothing more than an out
ward expression of the relation be-
tween the imperial families of the
two nations. Korea was ever the
sole possession of our Korean race
and was never under the actual con-
troll of any foreign nation or gov
eminent.
THE Japanese nation is an en-
tirely distinct race from the Korean.
She is an island people and her max
edness of body and mind could only
be covered by the civilization she
received from Korea and from
China during the centuries of the
past. Her customs, her literature,
her very clothing came to her
through Korea. OF late years she
has added to these the face-powder
of a western civilization; thus she
becomes the whited sepulchre of the
East. She gives no evidence Of
moral force, her actions toward our
nation has proven her to be the
embodiment of cruelty. The evil
dence is complete that the unifica-
ton of the Japanese and Korean
races is an impossibility."
What are described as five con-
s~picucus injustices on the part of
Japan toward Korea" are summar-
ICED in the statement. The commit
tee asserts that although Korea
aided japan in the raj against Rus
STA, "the dog has bitten the hand of
him who fed it." 1t is alleged that
Japan has broken her promise to
pay honor to the former imperial
family of Korea; that 1t is impos-
sible for a Korean to obtain fair
treatment in the courts when OPP
posed to the Japanese; that liberty
of speech does not exist and that
the Japanese arrested 33 men who
signed the manifesto of independ-
ence on March 1 last.

everything they played was meant TO
teach a lesson They played with
dolls, boy dolls. Ike this one Of mine.
Sometimes they helped TO make them.
But usually a grandmother made the
doll out OF soft deer skin, and stuffed
10 with buffalo hair. The shirt and
moccasins as we'll as the leggings were
fringed and beaded about as beautiful
ly as those Of real warrior. The hair
OF the doll warriOr-maybe some OF
the little girls own-was carefully
arranged into three braids. one on each
side OF the head, the other one, the
scalp lock, hanging down behind.
The girls used 10 have great fun
playing "Hunt the Baby" They played
the game on the edge OF the tepee vii
lage. and as in all OF their games,
where some woman. could see them.
one Of the girls took the doll and all
Of the others shut their eyes. Then
she dropped 10 somewhere in the grass
and went back 90 Tile others and cried
out. "Where Is my baby" That meant
