INFORMATION WANTED:—Mr

Yesterday inthe District Court, be
ing law and motion day, the Court
heard William A. Gilmore attorney fo1'
the defendant and T. M. Reed attorney
for the plaintiffs, argue on a de
murrer to the complaint filed in the
case of LeSammis versus Greenberg.
This litigation goes back as far as
IS) 13 and involves alleged rights to
royalties on certain ground on Kleary
creek, following the dissolution of
partnership of the defendant eind
plaintiff and others, some cases af
fected by the litigation having already,
been disposed of by court judgments
both in the District Court and in
the Circuit Court of Appeals at San
Francisco. It is interesting to note
that Judge Holzheimer is the third
District Judge before whom the sub
ject matter of this connected litigation
has been heard, the original case ap
pearing before Judge Murane and
some amended findings being made
by Judge Tucker on the orders of
the Circuit Court of Appeals.
The arrival of frost on Saturday
night, it went down to 27 degrees, did
considerable harm to the blossoming

covered. There was a great promise
for a potatoe crop in Nome this year,
but the frost is likely to blast those
hopes as well as the potatoe plants.

With the arrival here of Mediator
Bonham of the United States Depart

of the Miners Union for the eight
hour day. As far as the Miners Union
members are concerned that fight has
been won to all intents and purposes,
and practically all of them are now
enjoying the eight hour day. Those
who are not working can be counted
on the hands, while the men who are
working more than the eight hour
day are those who went scabbing when
the strike was on. These more than
the members of the Miner’s union, so
few of the latter being idle are' more
interested in the possible adjustment
of the working day than are the
unionmen.
The Elihu Thompson is due to
nght. As this steamer is not operat
ed by either of the two companies
having contracts for carrying mail be
between Seattle and Nome, malls will
not be dispatched from Nome to Se
attle on this boat, states the Post
master, except the Post Office Depart
ment should give special authoriza
tion to do so . Should it seem advan
tageous to make such a dtspatch of
mails, the matter will be referred by
the postmaster to the Department.
This statement by Postmaster Walsh
clears the air. It is likely too, that
the Thompson will call at a whaling
station which will delay that steamer
returning several days, possibly a
week, taking on a cargo of whale oil,
and as the boat is about the slowest
of all plying these waters, it is very
likely that both the Valdez and the
Victoria will reach Seattle before
that steamer.

MRS MONOHAV, Prop.
COMMUNICATED
Editor Worker: —
Would appreciate it very much if
>ou would give space to the follow
ing:
In your editorial of todays copy
"Holy Russia” to bring more light
of the situation in Russia and to show
the good the Bolsheviki Government
has done there and how popular that
Government is among the inhabitants
over there, you have stated of the
success it has had at the last election
in Petrograd etc.
Allow me as a man born in Russia
and knowing that, country very well,
and not belonging to those classes
which enjoyed power, influence, pres
tige and privilege under former gov
ernments, to state something what
you have omited in your editorial.
In regard to the popularity of the
Bolsheviki in Petrograd, based upon
the success they had there at some
elections, would say that there is
nothing surprising in it all, for the
Mensheviki and a few of the “Cadets”
(Const. Dent. Party) which are realy
and truly democratic and very popu
lar among all classes over there do
not wish to mix up with the present
Soviet, in order to avoid the repeti
tion of the criminal act the Bolshe
viki undertook in regard to the Con
stitutional Assembly at its first ses
sion. when the Bolsheviki with the
Red Guard and its heavy cannons
compelled the first real representa
tives of the Russian people to give
up their uflssion they assembled for.
Neither the Social Democratic Party
nor the Social Revolutionary Party
will take part in any election until
thc^Bolsheviki are overthrown.
The Bolsheviki are unpopular not
only with the classes mentioned above
or with all the powers fighting now*
on either side as stated in your ar
ticle, but also with the most real dem
ocratic classes in Russia in general |
and other countries in particular. You ■
can not doubt the democracy of such j
people as G. Plenclianoff, leader of
the Russian Soc. Dent. Party, V. Cher
noff. leader of the Soc. Rev. Party,
P. Kropotkin, the most radical in
theory as phliosophical Anarchism,
but according to circumstances mod
erate in practice, Burtzoff, who for
over thirty years has been fighting
the Romanoffs, M. Gorky the well
known writers and *many, many
others. Many of the just mentioned
were tortured in prisons by the orders
of the Soviet and some like Kokoshkin
and Shingareff, representatives of
the Constitutional Assembly were
killed by the same orders. Neither
are the Bolsheviki popular or find
sympathy from labor classes in any
country, on the contrary the misrul
ing frightens them and particularly in
Germany, it has also an atiti-revolu
tionary effect, for the German Govern
ment uses it to show its people to
what a mishap Revolution brings.
Henderson and Albert Thomas
representing labor classes of Great
Britian and France respectively were
fully in sympathy with Russia in the
days of Kerensky.
That there cannot be expected any
sympathy from any quarters for the
Bolsheviki is evidenced from the fact
that they suppress the press in a
worse manner it used to be done by
the autocracy of the Romanoffs. They
are violating anil destroying anything
and everything demociatic for the
sake of being in power.
In an official edition of the Soviet
which was sent to me from Moscow
f have read a couple of very specific
orders from the Commisary of f*ress
and Justice respectively, namely that
advertisers are forbidden to place
their “ads” in any but Bolsheviki pa
pers or magazines; that nobody has
right, to engage a non-Bolsheviki
lawyer etc.
In conclusion would say that the
Bolsheviki are holding their power
by the same methods as the Roman
offs did for over 300 years, namely
wtih the ignorance of the Red Guard,
but "Tempora Mutantur” times are
changing and with it the mind of the
people. Russian people are waltng
up and the day is close when they
will throw off the shackles the Bol
sheviki had put on them.
