precauciones que Sc toman! para
guardian la vida de Lenin, Ell celebre
dictador del Soviet Ruso, han sidc

de la escena que Sc llevo cabo al
iniciarse la aperture del reciente
Congreso de- la Tercera Internacio-
nal en- Petrogrado, a fin de ofrecer
la oportunidad a las naciones de
Europa Y America 10 POGO que en-
Russia Sc ha avanzado en- principios
democraticos y de justicia.
Ell autor de las noticias llegadas a
esta capital, conocido entire las va
rias autoridades que forman las
Cancillerfas europeas y los oficiales
del Gobierno aquf, prohibe sea re-
velado su nombre al publico, por la
razon de hallarse aun en- Russia y
temer de una venganza ejercida con-
ira el por los .esbirros> bolcheviques
del desgraciado pals moscovita.
POGO antes de llegar la hora en-
que habrfa de llegar Lenin al lugar
donde iba celebrarse Ell acto,-de-
clara Ell informante-la guardia de
honor del Palacio, compuesta de
trabajadores y campesinos, todos
fuertemente armados, Sc extendfa
por los sitios que tenfa que recorrer
el Dictator y su comitiva. La mayor
parte de estas tropas eran espfas,
pagados por los conocidos miembros
de la "Comision Extraordinaria" v
eran de un aspecto brutal rcpul-
sivo en- todos sus aspectos.
Lenin lego, al fin, rodeado de una
guardia compuesta por gendarmes
rojos. Su automovil era seguido de
un caro- blindado, apuntando con
sus canones amenazantes todas
direcciones. En- los instantes en-
que ell auto del Dictator Sc detenfa
uh cuerpo de Circasianos rode6 a
Lenin y entire agentes en- nimero

Al ascender Lenin la tribuna de

Washington, noviembre 5.--Nico-
las Lenin ha sidp .objeto de la prue-
ba mas dura dprante el alto cargo
que ocupa. ACADIA de recibirse un
infornle, llegado por conductos Off
ciales, de que el famoso Dictator ha
sido llevado ante un tribunal COM
pAesto por elementos bolcheviques,
para que responda de- ciertos car
gos que contra el Sc han archivado,

jefe absolute del poder Y en- supri-
mir definitivamente las teorias boil
cheviques para ciertas industrias y
casas de negocios en- Russia, especial
mente en- la ciudad de Moscou, dom
de esta la residencia del Dictator.
Este cable que fue puesto en- Eu-
ropa, Sc basa en- un correo proce-
dente de Moscou. Sobre el particu-
lar@se tenia el mayor secreto v tan
es asi, que NADIA ha dicho de clio la
prensa -bolchev;que, nj siquiera ;ha
sido trasmitida la noticia por cable
desde Russia.
Los hechos contenidos en- eI .des-
pacho, aunque ligeros, indican con
suficiente claridad la excitacion po-
pular que las acusaciones Y ell jul
clio llevado cabo contra Lenin, han
causado en- Moscou. Ell acto tuvo
lugar en- una -habitaci6n cerrada, en-
el antique Palacio Moscovita, insult
ciente para contener la inmensa mul
titudt que pretendia presenciar los
debates. La 'corte estaba compues-
ia por el Comite Central Soviet, la
cual Sc traslado, luego al gran tea
tro de Moscou.
Dos veces en- que Lenin caminaba
hacia ell sitio donde celebrabase ell
juicio, las masas lie demostraron su
desafecto, que inmediatamente la
Policfa ahogo dispersando los amo
tinados, por medic de las armas. Va
rias personas fueron muertas y mu-
chas heridas.
Lenin al ,principio neg6 todos los
cargos que Sc lie hacfan. AL pedir
ell Dictador que Sc expusieran los
nombres de los denunciantes, ell Co.
mite Central Sc opuso, temiendo una
venganza atroz por parte del Jefe
maximo bolchevique.
AL fin el Dictator logro defender
Sc, terminando el juicio sin que pu-
diera hacerse NADIA para derrocar a
LeninN del poder' pero ST aconsejan-
dole Ell Comite mayor cordura en- su
gobierno de ahora en- adelante.
Este es ell primer paso que Sc da
contra las actuaciones de Lenin v
su camarilla en- Russia, como un pre-
sagio de que el pueblo va empieza a
moverse, cansadoy de llevar la vida
que arrastra, tendiendo a deshacer-
Sc del estorbo que 10 ha llevado a
la ruina y la decentralization. Y
pronto habrase de registrar ell CO.
mienzo de la tragedia que ha de dar
al traste con el bolcheVismo ruso,
cuya cafda sera tan estrepitosa CO.

AT THE LIBERTY,

Wallace Reid has romantic comedy
roll in his new picture, Hawthorne
OF the U. S. A" which is coming to the
Liberty theater Saturday and Sunday
evenings. The story was adapted from
James b. Fagan's play of the same
name in which Douglas Fairbanks
starred on the stage some years ago.
1t centers around the adventures of
two American law clerks making
tour of Europe in a rented automobile.
Just when they are down to their last
penny, Hawthorne, one of the clerks
breaks the bank at Monte Carlo and
laden with wealth, the pair are mis-
directed into a tiny kingdom called
Bovnia. In the revolution that follows
Hawthorne is led by his romantic at
tachment to the Princess lrma to es-
pouse the cause of royalty. Pacifying
the country by rash promises and a
judicious use of his new found wealth
the American injects pep and system
into the kingdom and eventually turns
it into republic and wins the girl.
The role of Hawthorne is said to fit
Wallace Reid to perfection. His lead
ing lady is Lila Lee and others in the
cast are Harrison Ford. Theodore Rob-
erts, Tully Marshall, Charles Ogle,
Guy Oliver, and Edwin Stevens. The
picture is Paramount-Artcraft and
was directed by James Cruze.

Ar THE LYRIC.

A very clever comedy is billed for
saturday and Sunday evenings at the
Lyric when Bebe Daniels appears In
On Lady, Lady perturbation of a
popular musical comedy, and said to
De one OF the most amusing screen
productions now before the public.
MISS Daniels has strong support and
the playing combined with the beau
tiful outdoor scenes make up an at
traction that is seldom surpassed on
the screens. In addition to the main
feature there will be an Edgard COM
edy and those entertaining Bray car
toons. For next Wednesday and Thurs
day evenings will be presented Harry
Carey in overland Red" In this play
the star assumes the role of tramp
a different characterization for him,
and so colorful is it drawn and exc
cuted that the figure will be long re-
membered. The plot moves forward
with ever increasing action, although
this element is bewildering at times
because of its rapidity. Careys tramp,
In some respects, is his best cOntribu-
tion to the screen. He makes It roll
licking, likeable figure who accepts
everything with a keen sense OF hu-
NOR, but who is resOurceful enough
to take care of himself and those who
have earned his affection. 1t is a big
play and most interesting one. Addi-
tional attractions are Il two reel
Christie comedy "Out for the Night"
and an educational Outing Scenic.

NARROW ESCAPE,

Arthur Lund, at the head of a chain
Oh banks in this county, with head
quarters at Tonasket. had one of tho
most miraculous escapes from death
last Friday night that has ever been
reported in this county. He was driv-
ing nome in his Ford sedan accompan-
led by his cashier and three ladies'.
when he reached the bridge across the
okanogan at Tonasket in the dark
he mistook the guard rail of the bridge
nearest to him for the one farthest
away, swung in toward the river and
the car shot down the bank at an in
cine OF at least 40 degrees. The mud
IN the river checked the progress of
the car and it came to a stanlstiil
with the water up TO the seats. Con-
sideri1g the steepness of the bank at
that place it is simply a marvel that
the car did not topple over forward.

IL done so, every occupant of the We

COMING ELECTION.

The regular annual town election
takes place Monday, December 6. At
that election there is a mayor to be
elected for two years, treasurer for
two years, one councilman for term
OF one year, and two councilmen for
term OF two years. Now, the existence
OF the country does not depend upon
who may be chosen to fill the several
offices soon to be vacant in Oroville,
and the town will march ahead filling
its destiny no matter who may be
elected on the 9th of December. yet
at the same time it would be Just as
we'll for the citizens to use some judg-
ment in the selection of the men who
are to have charge of the manage
ment of municipal affairs for the next
two years. Dr. Beale has held the Of
flee of mayor for several terms. He
will have no more of it, and as he has
performed his civic duty it would
hardly be fair to urge him to continue
In office. There are numerous other
gentlemen just as we'll qualified, pro-
viding any one of them can be induced
to accept the mayoralty. A man should
be elected who is known to be pro
gresslve, who has the best inter asts of
the town at heart without regard to
class or section, who has some leisure
time to give to the public concern. lie
should have for coadjutators in the
council men of the same public spirit
and all should work in harmony for
the common good. The town has had
an excellent body of municipal officers
during the past several years. They
may not have pleased everybody, be-
cause to please everybody is beyond
human accomplishment, but they have
worked together in perfect harmony
and performed their duties according
to their lights. If the town is fortunate
in having another body OF municipal
officers as capable and Efficient as
those at present holding office then
the affairs of the place will sail along
smoothly for another two years. The
Gazette has no favorites to play, We
presume caucus will be held. as is
the custom, few days before election
and ticket named. 1t is not to be pre-
sumed that the choice of the caucus
will satisfy the entire electorate, as
it never has in the past, and two tick |
cts will probably be before the voters
to select from So far we have heard |
no names mentioned in connection
with any of the offices, but it is still !
ten days before election. and in the
matter of selecting officers almost
can happen in ten days

AN AMUSING STUNT.

Gregson, the sales manager, who
has engineered the Oroville CONNER
cial company's bargain sale. still on,
has variety of stunts aud surprises
up his sleeve like the tricks of a con-
]nrei to draw crowds, and every new
one hits the bulls eye. Saturday morn
ing half dozen live turkeys were
thrown from the second story window
OF the Commercial company's building
and on the street below were packed
about half of the population of the
town, eager to snatch from the air a
Thanksgiving dinner. To the credit of
the crowd it can be said that there
was no rough stuff pulled off. In a
few instances there was liveely
scramble in a head on rush, but no
one was hurt, and no dismembering Of
fowl in the effort to capture the
prize. In two instances the bird flew
directly into the arms of the captors.
Mrs. Paul Schultz and Roy McGrath
mad only to open their arms and cap
ture the winged dinner. The other four
who were lucky in grabbing turkeys
were Bob Killian, Alvin Doyle, Willie
Longacre and Edwin Williams. The
excitement lasted only a few min
utes but the proceedings provided a
lot OF fun even for those VINO went
home without drum stick.
