There were muttered curses, n short

A strong shock vIbrated through
Madeline, and her eyellds swept open.
Instantly she associated the name FL

sensation Of strange regret. 1t was
not pursuit or rescue she thought of

Stewart. But surely he had not come

thump of hoofs. Soon into the wide

and she recognized Majesty. and she
knew 1t was really Stewart who rode

approached with his hands high, and
he rode right into the campfire circle.

not merely Of a spiritual, but also of
a material and palpable character.
The mutual solidarity of the soviet

Instructions.
1.-The Communist International
notes with great satisfaction that
the work of the w. p. A. for the past
year has been expressed in a satis-
factory broad and real revolutionary
work. Particularly pleasing to us is
the fact that all dissensions existing
up to the present time in the ranks
of the party have finally been liq-
Undated and we hope that the w. p.
A, the advance guard of the revolu-
tionary proletariat of the United
States of North America. will now
more successfully conduct it's revo-
lutionary work among the millions of
American proletarians.

Detailed communications from Mos

containing minute instructions for
the organization of soviet army
among American industrial workers
to crush the republic and raise the
red flag over the White House." have
been made public by the State De-
partment to disclose Secretary
Hughes reason for refusing to open
negotiations with the Russian So

whose authenticity is vouched for by
the Department of Justice, outline a
surprisingly comprehensive plan for

tions. clubs. ETC." weekly "instruc-
tions in shooting" and even drills in

Purpose of Instructions.
Confidently anticipating a future
social revolution, the dispatches,
which are credited to Zinoviev, presi-
dent OF the Communist International
and of the Petrograd soviet. openly
declared the instructions therein con-
tanned were designed to give enor-
nous results in the sense of prepar-
future leaders of the military forces

Units of ten were suggested as
the ideal factory organizations. and
it was pointed out that railroad work

and similar workers engaged in the
principal industries of the United
States" probably would make the
most ideal recruits. The leader of
each group, the documents said, must

of the Communist International and

has assured the Department of State
of the authenticity of these instruc

80 Among these workers in the
factories. mills, plantations. clubs,

ten. The head of this unit of ten
must. in so far as possible, be an old,

must, once a week, together with his
ten, study the communist program
and other revolutionary literature.

"5 Each of these units of ten
must have their own fighting unit OF
not less than three men, who are ap-
pointed by the leader of the unit with
the approval of the central committee
of the party. The members of the
fighting unit, in addition to all other
matters must once a week be given
instructions in shooting and receive
some instruction in pioneer work

tyict must meet once every two
months to discuss the progress OF
