OF NEW REGIME
VLADIV OSTOCK.—The Russian
peasants hate the Red Guard a
hundred times more than* they ever
hated the agents of the former
: Russian emperor, according to a
traveler from Moscow, as quoted in
the Omsk newspaper Slovo. Per
- haps the traveler says, this may
account for some of the feirceness
I and ruthlessness of the Bolshevik
• rule.
1 Under the emperor’s regime, he
■ says, the murderer of a village con
■ stable would have been shot and the
• executions would have stopped there
but the Bolsheviki will shoot scores
1 of peasants for the murder of a
■ Red Guard
i
-vn tne way irom Moscow to
Tambov could be seen people called
. “sack carriers"—men and women
who had left their towns and vil
latres in the hope of finding else
; where bread and wheat. The Bol
. sheviki had orders to shoot all sack
. carriers, women, children or old
i men whether they were in quest of
bread for themselves and their
! starving families or to sell at higher
prices. And they were shot. The
traveler claims to have seen some
of these people running along the
tops of railroad ears, jumping from
, one to another, with the Red Guards
; shooting at them from the platform.
The moanings of those struck down
were heard far into the night.
The train passed Tambov. Atakar,
Balashev, all situated in a fertile
corn country. But nowhere was
i there bread even for the Russians
who had raised the com. It had
; been exported, nobody could say
where.
! A student member of the Com
- miltee of Fight Counter-Revolution,
who was on the same train, ad
. mittedthat he and his friends knew
i that the Social Revolutionaries as
jwell as the Mensheviki were not
j counter-revolutionists, but the com
mittee he said was obliged to view
, them as such if they wanted to
j continue to rule. "If communism."
he said, “will not fit the Russian
| people, we shall have to abandon
ithe power; but in that case we shall
j act in a fashion to be remembered
i for a long time.”
The train passed military trains
j going to the front. The soldiers
appeared gloomy and sleepy, prin
cipally sleepy. T he traveler saw
some looking for a place to lie
down, but an officer, carrying a whip
motioned them out. Their grum
blings were silenced by the whip
; or by the sight of a bayonet glist
jening in the hands of a sailor who
| accompanied the officer.
I Mrs. Jack Moulton was recently
arrested at Tacoma for re-entering
! the state of Washington after prom
| ising to say out to avoid pr jsecu
; tion for shooting her husband in
(a Tacoma hotel a couple of months
i ago. Jack Moulton was a very well
! known Alaska traveling man for
a number of years.
