will it take him to bring order out
of the chaos he will confront? Upon
whom will he make war after he
gets into his stride? With whom
will he seek to make alliances?y He
will be Russian, with Russian bent
and predictions. He is not at all
likely to resemble Washington and
content himself with establishing
government. He will want it run,
and to run it himself, Russian fash
ion.
Russia, as all the nations confess
is, in her present condition, a menace
to the world. But how much more of
menace will she become if a man
on horseback appears and rides down
the authors and conductors Of the
existing chaos; and then, at the head
Of the Russian hosts, reunited and
rearmed, sets out to assert himself?
No wonder this elder statesman of
Japan wants his country's alliance
with Great Britain renewed.

SALT SACRED
AND VALUABLE
Its Preservative Qualities in the Far
East Made it Seem an Emblem
of Faith and Eternal
Friendship.

Most of us know that it Is '.un-
lucky to spill the salt" says John O.
London's Weekly. In the famous
Last Supper of Leonardo da Incl
we may observe Judas Iscariot, with
an overturned salt cellar at his
elbow; significant symbolic detail
lof his treachery and his doom, which
would not have been lost on the
painters contemporaries.
The idea of the sacredness Of salt
it very ancient. In the east it's valu.
able preservative qualities made il
seem an emblem of good faith and
eternal friendship. In this sense il
was offered to guest; and so disre-
gard of it or carelesSnesS in its use
was taken very seriously. The Jews
believed there could be no blessing
on meal taken without salt 1t was
even used as a protection against the
evil eye and other bad influences.
Jewish babies used to be rubbed witt
salt as soon as they were born and
a lump of salt tied up in a bag was
often hung round a child's neck. 1t
was thoug~S demons disliked anything
so clean and non-decaytng as salt and
would fight shy Of it.
The practice of throwing salt. split
bv accident, over ones shoulder,
seems to be prompted by blind de-
sire to shift the i'll luck to someone
else or to get rid, at least, Of the
thought of it. But probably it was
once a serious form of exorcism Of
frightening the salt hating fiends
away.

WHEN RUSSIAN
MASTER COMES
Japanese Statesman Is Proposing a
Renewal Of the Anglo-Japanese
Alliance, Which Expires
- In 1921.

MARQUIS Okuma, the Japanese
statesman, in proposing a renewal or
the Anglo-Japanese alliance, which
expires in 1921, says:
Russia, with it's great population
of nearly 200,e00,00o, can become a
strong power if a great leader should
appear, even though the territories
of Finland and Poland have been cut
off. The temporary collapse OF Rus
STA is not enough to make the Anglo
Japanese alliance unnecessary.
Yes. and this suggests a chapter
of a most important history, remarks
the Washington Star. France be-
came a strong power again after her
unforgetable revolution. The leader
who appeared and made her strong
was Napoleon He was perfectly
qualified for his role. He mad ooth
genius and training.
The task at the outset was OF a
military character, and he was an
educated soldier. Subsequently,
craftsmanship was required. and he
proved to be a statesman also. IN
deed, he proved to be so capable IN
both military and civil matters, and
accomplished SO much in both, his
genius ran away with him ano ne
became a curse to his country and
to the world. Neither recovered from
the malign influence of his activities
and performances for many years.
Russia may not be harbor1ng a
Napoleon in embryo. 1t is a question
if she is. History rarely repeats
herself exactly in that way Suited
to the country and its conditions
thereof is the rescuing leader And
the Russia of this day does not re-
semble the France of Napoleons
day. The people and the conditions
are very different.
Nevertheless. a masterful Russia,
capable of big things and bent on
achieving them, may appear and take
hold. The stage is set. The time is
propitious. The world upset began
more than five years ago; and while
turmoil still exists everywhere, 1t is
most acute in Russia.

pear-in the nature of things he must
be either an educated soldier ike
Napoleon or born soldier like Crom-

ASKING DAMAGES
FOR HIS ARREST
:. r. Baer Files Action Against Earl
Pflus for Actual and Exemplary
Damages Of
5000.
TROUBLE LAST WEEK
PfIug's Information Filed by State
Against Plaintiff in This Suit
is Basis for
Action.

Actual and exemplary damages to
the amount OF $1,000 are asked in a
petition on file in the district court in
which Frank #. Baer Is the plaintiff
and Earl Plug is the defendant. 1t
is alleged in the petition that the de-
PENDANT caused the arrest OF plalntiff
without probable cause and that the
defendants conduct was malicious,
oppressive and in wanton disregard
OF the plaintiffs rights.
The suit grows out Of the Informal
lion which was filed in Enc superior
court last Saturday in which larceny
was charged against Baer. The infor-
nation was dismissed Tuesday morn
ing, by the defendant Plug with the
consent of County Attorney McManus,
after Baer had appeared the previous
morning to plead not guilty.
The petition sets out that the plain
tiff and defendant are both engaged
in the automobile business and that
the action was brought in the super
ior court by the defendant Plug for
the alleged purpose of injuring the
plaintiffs business, and his reputa'
ton and that by reasons of the acts
of the defendant the plaintiff has
been brought into public scandal, IN
fanny and disgrace" and for that rea'
son is demanding damages.
The trouble started over an auto
mobile with chattel mortgage on IT..
The mortgage was held by 3. I. Baer
and the instrument which was record
ed in the recorders Office provided
that Baer might authorize his agent
to take possession of the property at
any time if the mortgage was not
raid. 1t is claimed that the mortgage
became due and that acting under its
terms Baer and his agent took the
automobile.
Plugs information fled by the state
was later dismissed with consent OF
the county attorney. 1t is said that
tie delinquent payment on the car
was made later after the car had been
taken, and that the case was d1s-
missed by Pflug with the consent OF
the county attorney. 1t is claimed py
attorneys for Baer and Comstock
that the acts complained of were in no
way criminal and that the men were
acting entirely under the terms OF the
mortgage they hold
