NEW YORK, Mar. PA cores
pondent has at last given the Amy
erican world a translation of sever
al words, which to the American
mind on account of the news dis
patches from Russia are inSeparab-
ly associated with anarchy, murder
and terrorism of some sort. On the
contrary, the words are meaning
less in the sense as we understand
them, and really mean no more and
no less than the English words, af-
ter their translation do to us. The
explains that "bolshe-
vism" means majority, and its oppo-
site is "menshevism" or minority.
There were two political parties in
Russia the "bolsheviSts" and the
'menshevists," the former in major
lily and the latter in minority. Hence
the two words are derived. Soviet"
is translated into council, and mere
" names the political organizations
