London, Sept. l4.-Under the title
Parliament or Soviet" viscount
Astor's journal the Observer,
strikes the same keynote Col.
House "emphasized'' in recent
Washington Herald statement.
The question is not whether
there shall be a strike in any sense
hitherto understood" The observ-
er writes: 1T is whether there
shall open in fortnight from now
a decisive struggle between the
historic British system and the
Russian system on the more or less
Bolshevist model, prostrating every
liberty and interest of the country
to the sheer rule of force welded
by tyrannous minorities and arbi-
trary sections. The new rule of
force would be more grinding than
the old dcspotism by arms, for it
would use Industrial strangulation
of the ordinary means Of existence.
1t would be u work equivalent to
the blockade OF Germany during
the war.
That issue, is indeed challenged
by the miners. 1t implies the ma
tons fight for life no less than in
August, 1911 And more still. 1t
is the crucial issue for the whole
world. 1t is the fundamental con-
fiict between two types OF society
the neobarharic type born out OF
crude, unbalanced. semi i-Aslstic con-
ditions, unmistakably the offspring
In every lineament OF the Tsarism
it succeeds and the great western
heritage "f representative govern

by the Coroner and after he had been
admonished OF the fact that what
ever he might say before the Cor
oner's Jury might be used against him

on the night OF the homicide that he
had been shooting dice in club

club on several occasions but that on
this particular occasion he was ac-
costcd by Johnson who requested the
loan of a dollar. His refusal to com
plv with the request resulted in John
son becoming extremely abusive and
drawing gun and making three
attempts to shoot him. The gun failed
TO fire. He was persuaded to leave by
friends but seeing Golden hall an
hour later in front of 4704 State St

Although a number of newspapers
demanded explanations from the

Senator Harding reiterated them. The
Secretary oil the Navy IS reported to
have characterized As unjust the
statement that thousands OF natives
in Haiti have been slaughtered. VIII
he dare to say it is untrue: Or will
he rather attempt TO characterize the
people who were shot down as BAN
dits-mcn who were defending their
country against armed inyasion'
There has been ample time since
the charges were originally made
against the Administration and the
National City Banks invasion of
Haiti for some word about those
charges to come from Haiti. So far
as ! know no newspaper in this coun-
try has published any news or any
communication from Haiti.

by officers subject to the present Ad-
ministraton so much as We need
