RUSSIAN POLICY UNCHANGED

Secretary Hughes reslatement of the administration policy toward so- yiet Russia probably was intended as d reply to Senator Borah who has been agitating consistently for recognition of the Moscow regime. For some time inspired reports have emanated from Washington that President Harding was leaning toward recognition of the Lenine government. These rumors are set at rest by MT. Hughes state ment that the governments policy continues to be one of nOn-interler- ence in the internal affairs of Russia and refusal to take part in any nego tiations looking to recognition of the soviets.
 According to Boran. wno is an al dent sympathizer of the bloody Reds, he would rather have Russia's obli- gation to pay the debt which she owes the United States than the obligation of any other nation in Europe which owes us, except one"-meanins En- gland
 The Idaho senator overlooked the fact that the debt issue is not the con- trolling factor in the governments policy toward Russia. The Soviet gov ernment has not yet shown any s!mp- toms of the civilization expected from an intelligent country. On the con- trary it repeated repelled the finer instincts of civilization by series of atrocities against mankind. It has en- slaved the Russian peasantry, tlouted religion and repudiated the marriage contract It has shot down 2,7o0,oo of the more intelligent of its popula- ton. It has profaned everything sa- cred and made joke of government. The United States can hardly afford 10 endorse the policies of the Red government. It can hardly take part in trade relations without acknowledg ment that Sovietism is a government and not theory.
 The latest atrocity, the murder oi Vicar General Buatchkayitch, because of his protests against prosecutions by the Reds, places them outside the pale. Only after the organization of

 SAY U. s. VISITORS

KANSAS CITY, May 15.-Returning cattlemen who have spent the past few months in Mexico, say that na, tion will be able to feed the world, when stable conditions are maintain ed and herds made secure from ban. ditry. Mexican ranchowners are now afraid to purchase high bred stock on account of rowing bands of outlaws who steal and kill livestock, leaving the rich grazing lands to lie in idle ness because protection is not avail able.
 Between the Sierra Madre noun tains and the coastal mountains OF the east are millions upon millions of acres of the finest grazing land iii the world. The average altitude is about 4,000 feet. Near the Rio Grande the country is tick-infested but there are no ticks on the uplands
 Mexico will be a cauleman's para disc when the government can stamp out the banditry existing the past hal; century, and turn the ranges into plo ductive areas.

 Benjamin Purnell has taught his religious creed so as to cause some of the women of the colony to submit themselves to his embraces, and be- cause of the secrecy imposed it is impossible for knowledge to be ob- tained of such wrongs, except from voluntary statements from the colo nists. The moral tone of the colony has been very low" said the judge.

 At the time of the accident MT. Tal- lasen was alone in the engine room, happened. According to the best in formation obtainable MT. Tallason was oiling a bearing on the main shaft ing, standing on a ladder to do so. The supposition is that the ladder slipped and he grabbed hold of the shaft to keep from falling. A set screw on the shaft caught hold of his clothing and within the space of few seconds he was being whirled to his death. The first intimation to be had that he was in danger was when the carpenter of the plant, who few min- utes before had left the engine room, heard a cry of distress, followed by several loud thumps, and later a fall as though a heavy body had struck the floor. Calling 10 Foreman Nicho- lich and hastening to the engineroom, To lI-in 70 floor, bleeding profusely from the many wounds caused by his legs and body striking a huge timber above the shafting and also from an ugly gash in the back of his head. With the eX- ception of portions of his garments from the shins down his body was stripped of clothing. His lower limbs We're practically beaten to a pulp and nearly all his ribs were broken. The shinbones were protruding through the flesh in many places.
 Dr. Baughman was hastily sum moned and the injured man taken to his home, where death occurred short ly after half past five o'clock. Nurse Perry, who was in attendance, made a heroic fight to prolong life by arifi- cial respiration but all efforts were quietly.
 The deceased was born in Norway on March 3, 1866. At an early age he came to the United States and on reaching manhood's estate for time followed a seafaring life About thirty years ago he came to Alaska, leaving later for the states. At later period he went to Nome, where he was mar ried to Miss Severein Evanson, in 1901. On May 6, ten years ago, he moved to Seward, which place he made his home. Prior to his arrival at Nome he served in the Spanish American war, and was at Manila when Admiral Dewey captured that city. His residence in Alaska for the past twenty years has been continu, ous. Surviving him in addition to 6 devoted wife, are three daughters Helen Marie (Mrs. John Slavin), liv ing at Elva, Tennessee; Thelma Sc verien and Myrtle Fern, both of whom are living at Seward.

$4,000 Miners ON
STRIKE in germany
Men Protesting Against Occupa'
ton in the Ruhr

Gelsenkirchen, March 20. (By the
Associated Press Fifteen thousand
miners are on strike In the Gelsen-
kirchen district at all mines occupied
by troops according to estimates made
In German quarters. The men quit
work as protest against the occupa-
ton.
Five thousand men are out at the
Westerholt properties, four thousand
at Rheinbaden, four thousand at the
Concordia mines and two thousand at
the Blumenthal plants. They have
served notice that they will not re-
turn to work until the last soldier
leaves.
From Rheinhaden comes the report
that the sirens blew so long in protest
that the Belgians threatened to shoot
unless the noise was stopped.
The Germans assert semi officially
that the occupying forces are having
difficulty in operating the loading ap-
paratus at these mines and that so
far they have succeeded in loading
only three or four small trains daily.
Before the occupation it is asserted
a trainload of reparations fuel rolled
out every ten minutes.
The Germans charge that in order
to give a false impression of heavy
coal shipments the French have be-
gun daily shuttle service between
Ludwigshafen and Lauterberg, always
using the same carloads of coal.

WORSE THAN U. S. TAX
New Russian Levy Calls for Per
Cent From All Persons Earning
500 Per Month Salary.

Moscow, March 29.--Under soviet
Russia's new income tax law man
receiving more than 500 month
salary will pay eight per cent of the
surplus TO the government.
Incomes below 1870, 100000 rublos
or about SCI month ut present rates
of exchange are not subject to tax
alton, But from that sum on the
tax ranges from six to eighty per cent.
No allowances are made for wives or
children as in America and rations or
quarters furnished by the government
are counted as income and also SUBJ
ject to this taxation.
During February the maximum sal
airy for government officials was o.
600,000,000 rubles monthly or about
$50, which was received by Premier
Lenine, War Minister Trotzky and
other important officials. There are
thousands of Russian merchants and
spectators who now make as much
as several trillion rubes, or many
thousands of dollars monthly and the
tax is particularly aimed at this class.
The tax is, in theory at least, ap-
plicable to foreigners as we'll as Rus
slams, and businessmen, correspond
ents and others now living in Moscow
in government hotels where they are
charged New York prices for all ac-
commodations are anxiously awaiting
to learn what the tax collectors want
to do to them.
