Fishing Season Extended
Until April LIST

The season for fishing through the
ice has been extended again by State
Fish and Game Commissioner Linus
Leavens. The season for pike was
supposed to close on March !, but
this was extended until March Is and
another extension has been made 20
April /.
This will include all the lakes in
the county inhabited by fish which
may be caught at this season of the
year according to law and incla1os
pike, pickerel and perch
Mr.. Leavens has made no ruling
as yet on the request for permission
to shoot pickerel next month, having
been absent from the Office for a
short time on account of illness.
There are two opinions about this re-
quest, some favoring the proposition
while others claim that it reduces the
fish population at too rapid pace.
1t is probable that the season will
be limited, that fresh water brooks
where the pike run will be barred and
that it will be necessary to use a
rife instead of shotguns, but these
matters have not yet been entirely
decided upon but there is a, possibility
that the request may not be granted
at all.

upward toward the fresh air and the
welcome starlight Of the kopie's SUM
NIT, before Tarzan shook off the de
tanning hand Of reverie and started
slowly after them.
Once again, and, hesthought, for the
last time, he closed the massive door
Of the treasure room. In the darkness
behind him Werper rose and stretched
his cramped muscles. He stretched
fortl: hand and lovingly caressed q
golden ingot on the nearest tier. He
raised 1t from its immemorial resting
place and weighed 1t in his hands. He
clutched 1t to his bosom in an ecstasy
of avarice.
Tarzan dreamed Of the happy home
coming which lay before him, of dear
arms about his neck, and soft cheek
pressed to his but there rose to dispel
that dream the memory of the OLD
witch-doctor and his warning.
And then, in the span of few brief
seconds, the hopes of both these men
were shattered. The one forgot even
his greed in the panic Of terror-the
other was plunged into total forgetful-
ness Of the past by Jagged fragment
Of rock which gashed deep cut upon
his head.

with high-raised dagger, stood above
him, and the rows Of priests and
priestesses awaited, in the ecstatic
hysteria of fanaticism, the first gush
Of their victims warm blood, that they
might fill their golden goblets and
drink to the glory OF their Flaming
God.
The brutal and bloody interruption
by Tha, the mad priest, passed wildly
before the ape-man's recollective eye,
the flight Of the votaries before the in
sane blood lust of the hideous crea-
ttre, the brutal attack upon La, and
his own part in the grim tragedy when
he had battled with the Infatuated
Oparian and left him dead at the feet
Of the priestess he would have pro-
famed.
This and much more passed through
Tarzan's memory as he stood gazing
at the long tiers Of dull-yellow metal.
He wondered If La still ruled in the
temples Of the ruined city whose
crumbling walls rose upon the very
foundations about him. Had she final
ly been forced into a union with one
Of her grotesque priests? It seemed
a hideous fate, indeed, for one so beau
tiful. With shake Of his head, Tar
zan stepped to the fiickeriEy candle,
extinguished its feeble rays and
turned toward the exit.
Behind him the spy waited for him
to be gone. He had learned the secret
for which he had come, and now he
could return at his leisure to his wait
ing followers, bring them to the treas
ure vault and carry away all the gold
that they could stagger under.

would carry as much of the precious
metal to the summit of the kopje as
he could.
Six trips he made in the five hours
before Basuli reached the kopje, and
at the end Of that time he had trans
ported 48 ingots to the edge of the
great boulder, carrying upon each trip
load which might well have stag
gered two ordinary men, yet his giant
frame showed no evidence Of fatigue
as he helped to raise his ebon warriors
to the hill top with the rope that had
been brought for the purpose.
Six times he had returned to the
treasure chamber, and six times Wer-
per, the Belgian, had covered in the
black shadows at the far, end of the
long vault. Once again came the ape
man, and this time there came with
him fifty fighting men, turned porters
for love Of the only creature in the
world who might command Of their
fierce and naughty natures such mental
service. Fifty-two more ingots passed
out of the vaults, making the total
Of one hundred which Tarzan intend
ed taking away with him.
AS the last Of the Waziri filed from
the chamber, Tarzan turned back for a
last glimpse Of the fabulous wealth
upon which his two inroads had made
no appreciable impression. His mind
reverted to that first occssion upon
which he had entered the treasure
vault, coming upon 1t by chance as he
fled from the pits beneath the temple,
where he had been hidden by La, the
high priestess of the Sun Worshipers.
He recalled the scene within the
temple when he had lain stretched
upon the sacrifieial altar, while La,

Foreigners Take the Lead
Hence it has been noted that
whenever foreign subject was up
for discussion at the Sunday night
forums it was always the foreigners
who took the lead, while Americans
mutely sat back and listened, even
though the subject involved their
own country. The predominance of
foreign accents at the forum, not to
particularize on the familiar accent
Of the long-haired Russians with the
flowing black neckties who are in
variably supposed to champion the
Bolshevik cause, led some critics to
assert that the forums were not cal
culated to promote Americanism.
To arouse Americans to the adj
vantages of a more outspoken ex-
preston Of their views an unusual
step was decided upon. DR.. Grant

Western Nations May Yet Have to
Make an Alliance With
Prussian Junkers

| might lead to an overturn of the
| German state and the creation of
Bolshevist regime.
Only Germany Is Left
BY putting aside this possibility
for the moment it is quite clear that
if the Russian Reds are strong
enough to continue the war against
the West, of which the Polish Incl
dent was but minor detail, then
the sole reliance left to the Western
states is Germany. And not Ger
many merely, but precisely those
clements in Germany which pro-
vokcd the recent war and were re-
sponsible for It's horrors and it's
crimes.
1t is perhaps one Of the most as
tonishing ironies Of all time that
a situation is developing in which
the Western nations may have to
make q bargain with their enemies,
the Prussian Junkers, the reaction
aries Of the old regime, to save
themselves from the menace of
Russian advance, not alone into
Central Europe, but into Asia
Minor and through Persia into In
dla. And the smallest price that
the Prussians would accept would
abolish substantially all Of the terms
of the Treaty Of Versailles.
It is idle now to attempt to make
clear the fact which has prevailed
ever since the armistice--namely,
that Bolshevism is q state Of war
against Western civilization and
that, while it is possible for West
ern civilization to make peace with
Bolshevism, so far as its own actions
are concerned Bolshevism can only
make peace by signing it's own death
warrant.
What Bolshevism seeks is not con-
troll Of the government Of Russia
it has that; not the reconquest of the
provinces lost to Russia in the recent
war; it is accomplishing that. What
it is after is the overturning of the
system of power in all the Western
nations and the substitution Of the
rule Of the proletariat for that
which in the Western world NAV
fairly be described as essentially
bourgeois.
Lenine's Program
Bolshevism aims at revoIutioniz-
ing all governmental systems. 1t is
not natjonalism, but International
ISM. 1t does not seek to expand Rus
sian domination, as did czaristic Rus
STA. Its not concerned with crushing
neighboring peoples, as was Ger
many under the Hohenzollerns.
What Lenine and Troztky are after,
and Lenine's is the purer form. is
the substitution of the Russian for
the Western system. 1t seeks to
arouse the masses in each nation; it
seeks to create out Of the masses
q restricted class which shall doni
nate in place Of the present rulers
and governors.
