Active Logging Operations.

To the uninitiated it is evident that
the present winter is seeing more for
est products harvested in tine vicinity
of Eagle River than in several past
years. Several cars daily are loaded
out from here consisting of the vari-
Gus woods adaptable to paper mills,
box factories, and other woodwork
ing plants. Those familiar with such
enterprises state that there has never
been such an amount taken out of
this station in years. Although no
regular sawmill timber is shipped
from here in the raw state, the yard
of the Eagle River Lumber Company
is already filed with more logs than
ever before, put in by farmers, while
the company is getting out the larg-
est cut in it's history, at Boot lake,
which will come down by water next
summer. The exceptionally mild
weather making working and sleigh
ing conditions first class, is response
BILE mainly for the unusual output
and will mean great deal financially
to those engaged in that kind of in
dustry. It may also be taken as an
indication that next summer will see
great addition to the farming area
of this section which means much tc

Death Of Mrs. G. A. Case.

Word was received Sunday of the

Cured at Central City, Nebraska,
Saturday, February 18th. Mrs. Louis
Morgan and Miss Mabel Case of Eagle

City Tuesday.
Mrs. Case was born in Wisconsin
February l, 1857. For two years prior
to last September she had made her
home with her daughter, Mrs. Louis
Morgan at this place and during that
time had formed wide acquaintance
of friends who extend sympathy to
bereaved daughters. A son, Ralph,
resides at Boelus, Nebraska.
Deceased had long been a sufferer
from Bright's disease but during tile
past winter had apparently enjoyed
fairly good health At this time it is
not known what was the direct cause
of death. Mrs. Case was 81 years of
age.

WHAT BOLSHEVIKI
GAME REALLY MEANS
Horde Of Radical Discontents
Would Destroy Civiliza-
tons Best Structures
and Let Mob Rule.


The terms Bolshevik or Bolshevism
have been appearing in the papers so
much of late that unless the reader
has some clear understanding of what
they mean he cannot read the news
intelligently. In a general way peo-
pie have learned what the Bolsheviki
are, but their principles have not
been very generally made public.
Henry M. Hyde, a special writer for
the Chicago Tribune, who is now in
London, was commissioned by that
paper to Investigate and give as clear
an understanding as possible of what
Bolsheyism is. After investigation
he cabled the following:
ssBolshevism means the absolute
rule of the so-called proletariat. 1t
means that people who have no prop
erty shall take all property away
from those who have; that govern
ment industry, factories, and shops
large and small shall be seized by the
mob; that church, home, school and
all the institutions we call civilized
shall be destroyed; that banks shall
be looted of all cash, and all public
and private debts repudiated; that
marriage shall be oatlawed and free
love become the rule.
'sBolshevisIh is class war pure and
simple The bolsheviki are quite
ready for assassination on wholesale
scale; they are prepared to exter min
ate the whole so-called bourgeoise
class, including everybody who owns
the least bit of property, if that
is necessary to get what they want.
What they want is everything"
That Mr., Hyde could not be far
from correct in defining Bolshevism
is evidenced by the work they have
been doing in Russia. The SPARTA
cans in Germany are practically the
same, but used that term in order to
deceive the people as to the real pur-
pose.
1t is to that class of individuals and
the principles which they are uphold
ing that Victor Berger, the congress
man-elect, is giving encouragement.
In fact he addressed large gathering
IAn Chicago some time ago and was
cheered to the roof for his Bolshevik
utterances. And yet man with
such sympathies is elected to con-
gress Will the people of the country
be content to allow a man Of that
caliber to make laws for themY If
we are to prevent this country from
Bolshevism, we must kill the germ
now, before it infects the whole
country -ANTIGo JOURNAL.

Keep Service Flags

Don't take down your service flag. "
That is the advice which has come
out of Washington and is repeated by
the local war activity leaders.
"Just because your soldier or sailor
boy is at home, it doesn't mean that
you are not permitted to display that
emblem" is the advice made by the
committee to mothers of boys in ser
vice "A service flag is a badge of
honor and it is presumed every one
who has one wants to keep it on
display as long as good form would in
dictate. 1t has been decided that
such flags ought to be kept up until
the great bulk, if not all, the men
have come home. It will be a pleas
ing sight to note flag at this and
that home as they pass by and TO re-
alize that this home and that home
furnished one of his comrades at
arms. Instead of taking down the
flags one by one, as fast as the boys
are mustered out, or as the blue stars
turn to gold, their possess0rs saleuld
keep them OH display until some fixed
date when they can be demobilized in
some public ceremony and laid away
with reverence as a keepsake The
service flag has appeared everywhere
as sign of reverence and an emblem
of pride. The finest homes and hum
blesL cots have shown them and some
places Of poverty show stars of varied
colors, blue, silver and gold Let
them remain in position until GER
tain date has been set for removal,
for every such flag is a badge of honor

Return from Service.

Albert Meihack, a member OF The
Blackhawk division, returned from
overseas service Saturday, having re-
ceived his discharge. Albert went to
France last summer and after train
ing for several months was ready to

November 18th. Albert was a U. w.
student in one of the engineering
courses before his enlistment.
George Hayden, 18th Anti-Aircraft
Battery, arrived Thursday, having re-
ceived his discharge from the service.
In company with Hugo Merical, he
enlisted in the artillery branch of the
service early last summer. After
training at various camps in the east
they were sent overseas and were
ready for front line service when the
armistice was signed. George and
Hugo spent about six months In
France. Hugo's return was delayed
on account of lost service record.
VIM. Rand, one of Eagle Rivers
navy lads, returned yesterday after
several months service at the Great
Lakes Naval Training Station. Bill
enlisted last summer in company with
several other lo;al boys. At the time
of his leaving camp. Walter Dickman

SMITH BANKHEAD
REORGANIZATION
Madison State Journal Sees
Solution of Problem in
Legislation Now Be
fore Law Body.

There are eight million persons In
the United States who cannot read
any language or who cannot read OF
speak the English language. That
fact is all the argument needed fol-
the passage of the Smith Bankhead
Americanization bill. 1t provides
simply for the cooperation of the
government with the states in the ed
ucation of these illiterates.
The war and the problems that ii
raised called attention to this vast
army of ignorance in America. The
figures just cited mean that more
persons than live in Nevada, Wyo-
ming. Delaware, Arizona, Idaho,
Mississippi, Vermont, Rhode Island,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Ore
gon, Maine, Florida, Connecticut and
Washington are residents of this
country and cannot read our language
and millions OF them can neither
read nor speak it. These eight mil
lions would fill the cities of New
York, Philadelphia and Chicago.
Something like 8 per cent of the
country's total population is thus
disqualified for good citizenship.
This problem of the illiterate and
of the notwithstanding foreigner
does not belong to any one state or
any one section. The South has the
more illiterates, the North the more
foreigners who do not speak or read
our language. In the east south
central states III per cent of the
people can not read or write, but in
Passaic, N. j., few miles west of
the Hudson River, 1873 per cent of
the population cannot read, write or
speak the English language. Sixteen
per cent of the people of the south
Atlantic states are illiterate, but in
Fall River and Lawrence. Mass, the
percentage of illiterates is almost as
large.
These figures are startling enough
to the average American, to whom
education has been matter OF conrse
and to whom it would come as a
shock to know that if the illiterates
were equitably distributed through
out the country every thirteenth or
fourteenth person he met would be
unable to read the daily paper.
The Smith Bankhead bill, with it's
appropriation OF 100000 this year
and $l2, OOO,O next year and s12, $780,
600 year until 1926 would seem to
need little argument for its passage.
It appears, however that the Com
mittee on Education and Labor of
the Senate and the House Committee
on Education, which have the meas
ure in charge are not decided and are
asking for an expression of public
opinion on the matter. The chair
man of the Senate Committee on
Education and Labor is Hoke Smith.
The chairman of the House Commit
tee on Education is William j. Sears.
Write and urge them to push the
work of making Americans out OF
everybody who has chosen to live in
America.

If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win but think you

It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out of the world we find
Success begins with fellows will,
It's all in tile state of mind.
If you think you're outclassed, you

You've got to think high to rise.

To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can.
