SOVIETCAPITAL

Petrograd Has More Modern

b. United Press.
Moscow, June 2l.-The seat OF the
Russian government probably Will be
moved back to Petrograd if diplomatic
relations with eastern Europe are re-es-
tablished, according to Well-authorlzed
reports originating in the kremin.
The foreign Office is likely to lead the
procession back to the old capital this
fall, it being the most mobile OF the
various departments and the most directly
affected by the change. on account OF It's
constant use of telegraph and cable lines.
The reason for the contemplated shit
is TO be found in the fact that while Mos

commercial center Of Russia, Petrograd
has physical equipment necessary for
political capiial-large public buildings.
telegraph lines and direct cables TO Lon
don and other western capitals, hotels to
house legislators or visiting diplomats.
Rather than struggle along for years
until Moscow could be rebuilt into a
capital city, the government prefers TO
throw sentiment aside and go back TO
Petrograd, where everything needed is
ready and waiting.
Ever since the administration moved
The Columbia evening Missourian., 1922-06-21

into the kremlin the government has
been working under great mechanical
disadvantages owing 10 the lack of proper
facilities.
Moscow has many beautiful public
buildings, but they are museums church
es. and libraries, anything but adapted to
the needs of the administration.
The government, consequently, has
been Obliged TO distribute itself about

The Kremin itself, one Of the most i'm.
posing and romantic groups of buildings
in the world. is stirring for an art stu
dent and inspiring for a historian but
built in the middle ages for the needs Of
a mediaeval government.
Petrograd, on the, other hand, is one
of the most nearly ideal of world capitals
frcm the viewpoint of arrangement. Peter
the Great mapped it out carefully with
that sole aim. Petrograd has excellent
telegraphic communication with all of
Europe, a fine harbor, good railway con-
neciions and as fine collection of pub
ting stone for the facewall. Four hun

Moscow always has been and will re-.

+. ID. Jones of Macon County Start
ed Paper for Miners in 1890.

With the death last week Of Frank ID
Jones. editor of the Atlanta Express, one
of the pioneer editors Of Missouri ended
his career.
The Kansas City Times. in a special
article, calls Mr.. Jones the dean OF
Macon County editors" and tells OF his
struggles in starting a newspaper.
Mr.. Jones was a Welshmsn," accord
ing TO the article. ''fle came out Of the
,nines in 1890 TO run little weekly news
paper for his miner comrades. He did
not know a thing about presses and type,
but he was a good scholar and so long
as he operated a paper in Macon Coun-
" no other publication excelled his for
the clarity and good sense Of its editor
ials
The Beyier Appeal was first printed
on hand press, in a little chicken-coop
of an Office on the stree, facing the rail-
road. Mr.. Jones hired a printer TO set
type and 10 make up the pages. On
press day some Of his miner friends al
ways volunteered TO pull the press and
roll the forms, the early method. The
miners were tremendously pleased with
their paper. Some solicited subscrip-
tions at BevieT, Macon and other places,
paving their own expenses and refusing
to take any commission. The wives and
daughters Of the miners brought in per-
sonal items. The merchants advertised
literally. 1t was not long before the Ap-
peal enjoyed circulation and prestige
as great as any paper in the county.
With all his sympathies naturally in
favor of the men Of the pit-his friends
and comrades-the news stories and edi-
torials in the Appeal were so fair and
accurate that even the operators could
find no fault with them.
In the early days of The Appeal there
we're not so many trade journals as there
are now, and the ethics of journalism
we're not 50 generally discussed. So this
miner-ediior fresh from the pit had TO
establish his own code. He never took
an advertisement Offered by the liquor
interests. and never permitted in the col
umns of his paper anything that looked
like a questionable scheme.
In time The Appeal was in a larger
Office. and had improved machinery. After
fifteen or sixteen years of successful OPP

UNIVERSITY GRADUATE
WRITES FOR MAGAZINES
Will S. Denham, Former Columbian,
Puts Observation and Expe-
rience in Work.

Will S. Denham, a Columbian and
graduate of the University of Missouri,
is now a writer of articles, stories, sketch
es and verse for such newspapers as the
Kansas City Star and the New York Her
aid and 70 magazines, such as Life,
Judge. Munseys and Overland Monthly.
Mr.. Denham lived in Columbia from
1904 to 1919. He was graduated from
the Columbia grammar schools, Colum-
bia High School and from the University
of Missouri with the class of 1916. Since
leaving Columbia. Denham has rambled
through the Pacific Coast country. West
ern Canada, and lower California, gath
ering material and western atmosphere
for the mystic, Oriental-tinged stories,
sketches and verse that he writes.
L. ". Wilford. of tine Kansas City
Star, illustrates some of Mr.. Denham S
works. Mr.. Wilford is well known fol-
his wood block work, and several pages
Of his drawings appeared in the June
issue Of the Century Magazine.
AT the Mission a sketch appearing
in the Kansas City Star of April Is, un-
der the signature of Will S. Denham, is
typical of the type of work that Denham
writes. The scene is a deserted mission
by moonlight. A sand toad wakes in the
shadow of the adobe wall The toad
speaks to the wall The wall urges the
toad to flee. predicting death because of
a curse pronounced upon the mission.
The other character of the sketch is an
owl who later swallows the toad. The
toad. the owl and the wall comment upon
the human life, and the wall is quite
philosophical in its observations.
The illustration by Wilford shows
decaying mission in the mellow moon
light of lower California.
The Light of Fireflies," appearing in
the Kansas City Star of June 6. gives
more of the atmosphere of the Orient
than does AT the Mission" The char
