UNREST In ALL
CORNERS OF EARTH
Even in Such Old World Out of the
Way Spots as Island of Sardinia
Is Spirit Found.

Rome, Sept. THE spirit of unrest
has penetrated since the war even to
such old world and out of the way
spots as the Island Of Sardinia. Among
these picturesque PEASANTS, many of
whom cannot read or write though they
are often people of dignified manners
and strong character, public opinion
is diffused by word OF mouth and a
strong party has arisen lately whose
motto is "Sarinia alone" who think
that the island, which is the second
largest in the Mediterranean would be
more prosperous If it governed itself
and had little or nothing to do with
Italy.
In ancient days Sardinia was one of
the great graineries OF the world, sup
plying first Carthage and later Rome
with immense quantities of grain. Now
a large proportion of the island is I'M
cultivated, and about one fifth is COW
cred with forests, chiefly consisting
OF holmoaks and cork trees. The me st
valuable exports however, are from
the mines of lead, zinc, anthony, cop
per. silver, Ignite and anthcacite,
which if only thoroughly developed
would be source of great riches
The Sardinians are a splendid sight
ing race and not only during rae late
world-conflict but throughout the Ma
poleonic wars and the Middle Ages
provide some of the staunchest SOL
diers Europe. The Sardinians have
always considered their island the Gin
derella of United Italy. They say that
they have been alternately neglected
and taken advantage of by the central
government, education has been dis
regarded. the malarious state of the
country has been ignored, few roads or
railways have been provliod in OF Der

PEACE In SIBERIA
ISNOT in SIGHT
JAPANESE REFUSE TO TREAT
WITH REPRESENTATIVES, OF
NEW FAR EASTERN REPUBLIC.

Verkhne- Udinsk, Siberia, Sept. To-
Representatives of the Far Eastern
republic recently established here have
been frustrated in their efforts to
make peace with the Japanese mill
tary command in Siberia by refusal of
the latter to treat with them except as
concerns territory west of Chita, &C
cording to a statement by A. NJ. Kras-
notchekoff, foreign minister of the new
republic, to the Associated Press cor
respondent. >Parleys were broken off
when the Russians insisted that the
scope of negotiations should embrace
the entire Far Eastern situation.
should assume an international aspect
instead of parleys between military
commands, and that military opera
tons should be completely suspended
while negotiations were in progress.
Efforts of the Far Eastern republic
to establish friendly relations with the
Japanese even at the expense of sur
render temporarily of sovereign rights
to wide belt of territory, were de-
scribed by Krasnotchekoff as follows:
'Parleys between the Japanese mill
tary mission and a mission of the Far
Eastern Republic We're begun on May
"a at the station Gongota, between the
Japanese Semenoff and Russian fronts
about 20 miles west of Chita. The
Japanese mission, headed by Colonel
Rurosawa, presented three demands,
namely that the Soviet army must re-
turn west of Lake Gaikal; that a neu-
trail zone be established west Of Chi

ALASKAH OPENED
TO AERONAUTICS
Completion Recently of Trip to Nome
of Great Military and CONNER
ciai Importance.

New York, Sept. Military and CIV
ilian aeronautical experts declare that
the completion recently of the trip OF
four American army aviators from New
York to Nome, Alaska, was as epochal
in its military and commercial import
ance as Bleriot's first flight across the
English channel since it opens Alaska
to aeronautics.
Reports state that the Alaskans are
determined to bring about regular
communication through the air and
now look to the government to foster
the new project.
As the result of the flight, it is said
an aerial route has been photographed
and charter diagonally across the
United tates, Canada and Alaska, with
tentative supply and air service sites.
The Air Board states that the follow
ing has been accomplished by the
flight:
An effective aerial route to the
Northwest corner of the American con-
tinent and Asia has been established
Inaccessible areas in Alaska which had
never been mapped have been charted
and photographed.
Usefulness of the airplane as a means
of transport, both for mail, passengers
and freight has been demonstrated.
Necessity of landing fields, and service
supply stations throughout the United
States and its territories has been
shown.
Durability of modern airplanes and
motors has been proved and it has
been learned that flying is safe, even
over territory where transport by rail-
road, automobile, and wagon is con-
sidered extremely dangerous.
The report of Captain st. Clair
Street, who was in command of the ex-
petition, states that the flyers consid-
cred the route across the Eastern
States, as having few landing fields
and not ideal in any instance. The
Middle West and Canada, he said as
far as Edmonton, was ideal.
THE expedition sighted innumerable
glaciers" said Captain Street, "and
rain, low fog and clouds were preva-
lent. Yukon and Alaska are rough and
partly forested, and offer no natural
landing places except on river bars, but
the route from Wrangell to Nome is
ideal for water planes

lished and that the japanese have
representation In the railway man
agement.
THE Russians replied that the So
Wet army had not progressed beyond
the left bank Of the Selenga river.
(southwest Of Lake BaikaD and that
the question of their return west Of
Baikal must be taken up by Japan
with Soviet Russia.
The Far Eastern Republic mission
proposed that the railway in the Chita
and Stretensk districts be considered
within the sphere of influence OF the
Japanese military command in Siberia
temporarily, until an agreement re-
garding japanese evacuation could be
reached; and that through transporta-
ton and communication be established
eastward.
The Russians insisted upon par
leying regarding the Far Eastern sit
uation as a whole. that fighting cease
on all fronts, and that the negotia-
lions assume the aspect Of an inter
national conference instead OF parleys
between two military commands.
"On May % the parleys were inter
rupted because the japanese wished to
discuss the situation west Of Chita
only, stating that they were not au-
thorized to do more.
ION June 2 Krasnotchekoff sent a
memorandum to General OF expressing
surprise that the Japanese mission
was not empowered to treat with the
Russian mission and repeating the Of
fer that the pre- Kaikal railways be
temporarily within the jap
anese sphere of influence, thus prac-
tically renouncing sovereign rights In
this territory for the sake Of peace.

WANT PAROLE LAW CHANGE.
Prisoners at the Workhouse to Petition
I1ecislatuYc for Modification.

Petitions for a change in the parole laws
of the State, will be presented to the next
Legislature, it is said, coming. from the
convicts at the workhouse, which IS also
the State institution for the Incarceration
of lifetime prisoners. =,
The convicts have been discussing the
laws through which man may be freed
fnom prison and believe that a clean
record, after serving one-third, to one
half his time should serve as bona hide
u,,ar,anteo for his pardon, in al cases cx-
eept rape and premeditated murder. A
man who feloniously assaults woman
should be hung, is the opinion OF the
convicts, as should man who plans
murder. On all other crimes, and even
murder, where the prisoners show re-
pentance and good behavior, the con-
victs believe they should in these modern
times be given another chance. The time
agreed upon for unprecedented murder
is fifteen years. =,
These are thoughts developed at the
eriodical meetings of the honor com
mittee of convicts.
