that this is not fair. These young

hopes for preserving peace have

the last word in free government.
The other day while visiting a
northern Wadena county village, a
prominent business man came to
see me with view to enlisting my
aid in getting his parents out. Of
Russia. A few years back they
were prosperous farmers in Wadena
county but 1t seems that the mother
became thorouhgly sold on the idea
that Russia was preferable to the
United States as place in which
to live so she finally persuaded her
husband to sell their farm and all
belongings and move to Russia.
Shortly after their arrival in the
Soviet Republic they unwisely fore
swore their American citizenship
and became Russian subjects. After
having lived in that country for a
few years they now want to come
back. The father has been arrest
ed and deported to some northern
lumber camp but the mother, son
and daughter are living on a gov
eminent farm. No doubt he was
ARRESTED for expressing his opin-
ion of the Russian government.
We are now trying to get the
mother, son and daughter back to
the States but i fear it is going to
be a long pull as their money is all
gone but several children, who
were wise enough to remain in this
country, are prepared to make the
necessary guarantees for their
maintenance.
i merely mention this little Incl
dent to show that it is easier to get
into that country than it is to get
out and also to warn all who may
be planning on going over there to
retain their American citizenship
until they know what they are get
ting into. Conditions in Russia
are a long way from being what
they are represented to be by half
baked Communist agitators in this
country, most of whom are too
shrewd to take their own prescrip-
ton.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, June s.
The stirring notes Of . bugle and the
shouts OF officers sent a long Gray
column marching out OF this vir-

Confederate Army was on its way to
Gettysburg.
The marching column was the corps
OF 1t. Gen. James B. Longstreet, head
ed for the upper fords of the Rapidan
River in the first movement of the
campaign devised as a stroke to win
foreign recognition of the Southern
government. The campaign was to
reach its climax at Gettysburg, where
veterans of Blue and Gray will meet
IN reunion June 29-July to COM
memorate that titantic struggle.
But Gettysburg was a full month
and ESQ miles ahead of the column
that wound out Of Fredericksburg that
June day in 1868. 1t was a confident
army, mistaken by the loss of Stone
