The i.-su* s of the great war have be
i oine greatly complh atcd by tie
revolution in Russia.
Before that everything was
simple. The aims of the variom

riorial adjustments. They weri

teased that tlie presence in Russi,
of a growing radical sintimont i
not calculated to bring about at
arly termination of the war. In
deed it is very evident that the Hus
mans fear that to enter whole
heartedly into M.e war. they mu
have to submit to conditions ahi
10 those from which they more re
cently emerged.
Consequently it will be som tint
before the industrial and agrieui
turn! re-adjustments in Russia wil
have reached that stage whir
would have been reached by a shor
cut through a simpler revolution.
Phe K; rniloff rebellion again?
Kerensky was to have been su it
short cut. Karnlloff was to hav
been the man on horse back, wh
was to establish a benevolent des
potism so Hiat the war could b
carried on with i fficienev and dele:
mination.
But the Russian people have ai
parently had enough of despotism
and they quite apparently have n
desire to kill on* to make anothe
king.
One can easily see that mat
powerful interests in America, i
Rngland and in France had tempi
rarlly hoped that tie prnctic
methods of Karnlloff would di
plp.ee the somewhat “vnionnry”. a
they regard them, tactic.-, o K• i ■ *

such inter'st- we might have note
something like consternation wlie

This is a somewhat pe. uiiar rr j
versa! oi' ini: ■.; ’ ions, when Russia;
: was tin- i .mightt d and whence ex- |
ill's sought asylum in other na- i
tions.
It would ho impossible for us to
appraise therefore the 'remendoua
influence which Russ'ia will wi'-lii
at a peace conference when such
negotiations are finally opened.

position o; England on the seas,

All we know coming out of Ger
many is that there is immense in
dustrial unrest there too. But it is
true that the discipline of the war
has penetrated so deeply into the
minds of the German people that

hate i,. n growing be' ’er and again
adopting the vitalizing slogan i i
ad r volute ni t ns voiced by Da -
ten “To D.ra. to D.u< again and
Always to !>.■- ”. After the Rus
sian ■ evolution German diplomats
and rulers saw that there was an
opportunity for bringing about
closer relations between the Central
Power and Russia.
They tried to gain the good will
( f the Revolution. They did so by
in.nt ‘din'e’;. truckling and cat* ring

The wisdom of this policy. what
ever wo may think o: its honesty
was beyond doulit well repaid in
the results that followed, especially
when exiles returning from Amer
ica and elsewhere found them
selves subjected to ail kinds ot
questioning and all kinds of difficul
ties were placed in tlieir path.
it is of vital interest to America
that the good will of Russia tie
built upon no uncertain ground.
And this can best be done by Am
erica recognizing that radicalism is
triumphant so far in Russia amt
that it is regarded with sympathe
tic felings by the United Stnt s
Moreover in this tin nation will be
exhibiting its real feedings. We
believe that in America there is
more re al and earnest sympathy fot
radicalism than any country in the
world. Not withstanding the efurt
that privileged interests have b
making to establish themselves in
positions of power, the heart of the
■ c inrrv is still responsive to th
actual sentiments of the Declara
tion of Independence and that the
knavish representatives of the
plunderbund whose agitative forces
■ have been uniformly conducted
I against democracy have not now
and never have made any kind of
I a deep impression upon the people.
If this were not the case then
