CHANGING SOVIET RUSSIA When Professor Theodore Pe troff of Petrograd, ammoted Russian scientist, arrived in Washington s few days ago, he declared that Le- ain is slowly dying. He said it is quite possible that the bolshevist leader already is dead and that his death is being kept a secret. The Petrograd scientist asserted that Lenin gave up his work as head ef the soviet government several months ago. Other men, he said, have been in control of Russian af- fairs and have exercised this con- trol by the claim they received all their orders from Lenin. All other leaders of the bolshevists consider- e@ it very dangerous to admit that Lenin had relinquished the “throne” of communism. Professor Petroff referred to the soviet government of Russia as a atrong and highly organized minor- ity. That fact in itself would ex- plain the importance attached to leadership; for when a minority loses leadership, or its leadership is divided, it becomes a hopeless as well as a headless faction. There is bound to be some kind of a change, and it probably will be for the better, when the power of Lenin has definitely come to an end, by death or otherwise. No other leader in Russia is his coun- terpart. Trotzky’s! name has long been associated with that of Lenin —but Trotzky could not step into Lenin's shoes. ‘Trotzky has been the military end of the soviet machine and his following has been confined largely to the army. It is reported by the students of Russian affairs that the power ex- ercised by Lenin has been shifted, or is being shifted to a triumvirate composed of Rykov, Bucharin and Stalin. All of these three men have been intimately associated with Lenin end collectively have comprised much of the “power behind the throne.” They have kept out of the limelight, however, and their names are little known out- wide of Russia. THE NEXT WAR'S DESTRUCTION W. L. Warden of the London Daily Mail, predicts that in the next war, if there should be a next war involving the great powers, London and Paris will be destroyed by air bombs and gas attacks. Mr. War- den doesn’t need a very vivid imag- ination to justify him in making] this prediction. Both London and Paris were mena fore used belligerents. Their power to harm was at that time rei- ‘| different, that it matters not to us ,|three wireless operators, keeps in Shots Fired at | in the world] war by destructive forces never be-| | testimony destructive force may have been increased a hundred or even a thou- sand per cent. And what is to be the solution to the problem? Paris cannot answer, and yet Paris is the present seat of political and military activity which discourages the hope of permanent peace. London cannot answer, for in London preparations for war go on and there is no end to the build- ing of offensive and defensive ma- chines. Washington has no right to say a word. Washington’s atti- tude has indicated that we are in- whether Paris and London are de- stroyed or not. And in the meantime vociferous senators cry out against President Harding and a world court—a court that might hold Mars in leash until the world recovers its sanity. RADIO ON MISSISSIPPI Wireless telegraphy may restore river commerce on the Mississippi. The radio adds much to effecien- cy of the U. S. barge lines between Memphis and St. Lou's. , The Cairo Bulletin says: “Noth- ing better illustrates the difference between the new waterway traffic and the old than employment of radio for dispatching. Its use of the radio is one of the most exten- sive for commercial purposes that the writer knows of. “The entire system is run by wireless from the office of the chief of operations at Memphis, who, with touch with every unit and every barge from #- Louis to New Or- leans. “All the tow boats and self-pro- pelled barge unita used on short auxiliary runs as feeders, are equipped with wireless. They re- port their positions several times a day, which are plotted on an end- less chart, which makes a complete graph of operations, including all mishaps, and time out, for weather or for fog. A REAL BURNING | QUESTION Somebody ought to cail another conference at Washington. The advice of the world’s best military minds is nesded. The general staff of the United States army is up a tree and it’s up to the neighbors to lend a hand be- fore it cracks under the strain. Never mind figuring the air strength of the world. Forget the control of the route to India. Side- track the protection of the canal xone, There’s something really weighty before us— What's the proper way te brand a mule? A board of officers was named to settle this (literally) burning question. One officer wanted the brand on the near shoulder, another on the near side of the face, while a third picked the rump. Then one faction wanted “Tt. S.” added to the serial number and another couldn’t see it. The question has our mar- tial genius chasing itself in a circle. We helped Europe in her hour of need. In return for that trifling favor, won’t she aid us in solving this mule branding puzzle? Or perhops Mr. Edward Bok would be willing to kick in another $100,000 for a “practicable plan.” It’s an opportunity for him to ren- der a great service For cértainly this democracy ought to be made safe for the army) mule. “POETIC LICENSE” We do not know whether to be glad or glum over the action of Oklahoma’s governor in giving a “poetic license” to a young woman| of that state. The world has suf- fered much from poetic license, par ticularly in recent years since vers libre apostles began their work of denaturing rhythmic literature. | There has been too much “license” of a sort, and what is needed is an| interdict, not a permit. If, however, the license issued is) merely a grant of privilege to write | poetry, it is a preliminary gesture of which we heartily approve. It may be the first step toward regu- lating poetry; possibly we shall see emerge from it a new prohibition | party, requiring people who have | not the authority to versify to con- | fine their efforts to prose. | Of course in such circumstances | there would be incurable addicts who would bootleg their poetry, but nobody would pay ten dollars a quart for bootleg poetry, and this | would tend to discourage them. . Trial Witness} CHARLESTON, W. Va., July 19.— Three shots were fired at W. R. Gray as he sat in his house here,, accord- ing to the state police.

His mother, who is a widow living in Billings was sent for and drove all night long trying to reach the bedside of her son before he died, but she arrived too late to see him alive. The lad had a crushed skull and a broken collar bone and only seemed to re- gain consclousness for a moment be fore he passed away. Open New Mine KEMM zt, Wyo, July 19.— Within a very short time the Pacific 8 new mine, situated a nee south of Oakley near tracks, will be producing. Last week grading was completed for the 610-foot spur track from the main line, and as soon as it arrives the trackage will be laid, after which the Pacific mine will be one of the pro- ducers of this region. This mining company was organized last year, since which time many thousands of dollars have been spent in establish- ing a first-class property. Every- thing {s now complete. The main slope is in 600 feet and entries are to be opened soon. The Pacific Coal company was pro- moted by local men, after a market had been secured for their product, which {s a very high grade bitumi- nous coal, and within the very near (She Ambassador Park etvenuo at Fifty-fire Street, Most Distine- THE h¥NCH WAGON MAN HAD SHORT — CHANGED HER AND WAS GOING To TAKE “HIM To THE PokicR future coal will be mined at the new mine at the rate of 200 tons daily to suply {ts market, which is sald to be the Japanese steamship lines that operate Pacific liners into Seattle and Portland.

Draws Jail Term KEMMERER, Wyo., July 19.—Re- port from Denver is that James Kukules, former stool pigeon in Carl Jackson's enforcement department in Wyoming, was last Monday sentenced They to serve 30 days in jail, following) ian conviction of the charge of imper- sonating an officer. Kukules {s one of the men who figured in the shoot- ing scrape at Foss!! about one year ago. He left the Wyoming prohibi- tion department last December, and in January went to Colorado, where, posing as a federal prohibition officer, secured an automobile at Trinidad, and borrowed money from another individual at Pueblo. Following this he disappeared. He later showed up in Seattle, and when he applied to Carl Jackson for a job as prohibition officer, he was taken into custody and returned to Denver.
