Let us force those foreign meddlers to seek

If you are in Alaska and have a job, stick to
it by all means, is the terse and sensible advice
given by Alaskans who have been outside to!
take a lock at the situation and who have re
turned. glad to get hack. For a while, at least.
The great readjustment, following the world
war is taking place. Things have been on an
unusual basis. They must be adjusted to meet
the fast-changing conditions. And this big re
adjustment is going to disturb the big indus
trial concerns of the nation.—Oordova Herald.
“ THE PEASANTS PIG
The simple Russian peasant is learning thru
hard experience of the beauties of socialism.
WhenThe other fellow had the land sed he had
rone it seemed fair enough to him that there
should be a grand distribution. Now he has his
bh of land.-but finds himself in the previously
envied class with others existing who covet that
which he produces. The land having been soeia
liied the products now are socialized. The in
iustrkais peasant cannot sell a pig from his
farm and keep the money. The proceeds must
be turned over to the bolshevik, who distribute
vart of the money among those who have no
pigs to sell.
It s a beautiful system so long as you are one
i the grabbers. When you become a grabbee
: is another matter. So peasants who once wel
comed bolshevism now wish to rid themselves
£ it. The benefit of the lesson to those in
America who are tripling with bolshevism is
probably lost in the fact that the story is told
by Grand Duke Alexander. The insistence
that no member of the “capitalis class” can tell
the truth about Russia is familiar. But there
was published an interview the other day with.
Robert Minor, who has spent a year or so in
bolshevik Russia. Minor thought he was a bdl
shevist before hewent to Russia. Here he was
a friend and associate of Emma Goldman and
Alexander Berk man. He was associate editor
of Mother Earth and also wrote for Solidarity,
the I. W. W. paper. In the latter paper he ex
tressed the gentle opinion that each union
't old have a machine gun to enforce its
: rhts. He spoke against preparedness and re
mmended direct acting to prevent it. He was
one f those actively interested in the defense
: ThomaF J. Mooney, and while in San Francis
. assisted in celebrating the departure fol- Rus
sif- f several parties of New York east side
anarchists in 1917. He followed them to Petro
?rad in 191S. _
Msn<*r ought to be considered truthful by the
American anarchists. He is one of them. Yet
he speaks in disgust of bolshevism. The leaders
having by the process of grab attained affuence
are beat on protecting their acquired rights
tront any new set of grabbers. The peasant
with his pig is more lowly than ever, but the
shevik. rulers have become a master class.
"Capita!” Is showing itself again. It rides in
: -nes to the door- of the people’s cornmis
--- -- Possibly the worst element of capital
-rr: is learning new tricks in the exploitation
