By EDWARD W.
Something of Importance has been
happening In Russia. The dispatches
of the week made this fairly certain,
but they did not reveal the exact na
ture of the event A good guess is
that General Brusiloff, former com
mander in chief of the czar's armies,
has effected a military coup and has
assumed the full control of the soviet
republic formerly exercised by the ci
vilian commissaries. Rumors of this
have been current for a week. A
change of policy If not of authority, is
Indicated by the fact that a Moscow
correspondent has been/permitted, for
the first time, to seni a story of the
hopeless collapse of transportation In
soviet Russia and a prediction of tne
downfall of bolshevlsm next winter if
not before.
On the other hand, authentic dis
patches show the Russian Rede are by
no means whipped yet and that the
spread of their doctrines In other lands
has not been checked. East of Kiev
the Poles and Ukrainians have been
held, and between Borlsoff and the
Dvlna river they were driven back'by
a strong counter offensive launched by
Brusiloff. In the Crimea General
Wrnngel has formed a new government
with which the bolshevik! were expect
ed to open peace negotiations ot once,
tlie remnants of Denlklne's army being
assured of safety.
Unconvinced by the Impending fate
of soviet Russia, or Ignorant of It the
-Persians seem to be turning more and
'more to bolshevlsm, with the active co
operation of the Russians. The French
'foreign office on Wednesday received
word that the Persian gendarmerie,
which was organized by Morgan Shun
ter some years ago, had turned bolshe
vik and that the young shah had fled
southward from his capital. At Enzell,
a Persian port on the Caspian sea, the
Beds landed from thirteen ships and
the British were forced to evacuate
the city. Though the Japanese In Si
berla are now having things all their
!own way, the mikado's government Is
worried, for bolshevlsm Is spreading
among the Japanese troops In that
, country and Is infecting the people at
homo also.
j In the Caucasian region conditions
are confused and disheartening. The
Georgians and Azerbaijans are fighting
fiercely; Just why Is uncertain. The
Turkish nationalists, wbo are said to
be plotting with the leaders of bolshe
vlsm tflkough secret meetings In Ber
lin afid Rome, are still going strong
,snd are supposed to be promoting an
other uprising of nationalists In
Egypt.
Hie determination of the French
government to break np the General
Federation of Labor 4a explained folly
by disclosure of evidence fonnd by the
jpollcc. This shows that if the May 1
revolutionary strikes had succeeded,
all was prepared for the Institution
of soviet rule In France. Soviets had
been established In seven princlpsl cit
ies and the leaders are well supplied
with funds. The federation has now
refused to be Identified with the ex
tremists and has called off all the
strikes.
Something Is happening In America,
too, and we all know what It la, but we
arc uncertain aa to Ja«t what la cann
ing !'. and how far It will go. It look*
aa If the reduction of the coat of living
renlly had begun with a general cot In
(>ricca by many merchant* all over the
country. Ao far the reduction* apply
innlr.'y o. clothing and shoes. En
thualaatlc consumer* are trying to per-
Made themselves that the movement
downward la to be. general and exten
alve, but the cautlona one* are Inclined
to accept the statements of certain re
tailer* to the effect that there can be
no general break yet In prlrea and that
the coat of living muat remain at
about ita present altitude until all of
us, laborer, producer, merchant and
con*umer, learn a leaaon In practical
■naelflsbness.
Present reduction* apparently are
due to effort* to liquidate atocka be
came of the alackenlng of demand and
the policy of the bank* In calling loans
and tightening up on credit*. The
bankers are fulvlsed in their course by
the federal reserve board. Their ac
tion will not seriously affect those who
produce or market necessities, but is
directed especially at those who sup
ply luxuries and these who are hold
ing goods for higher priced. The liqui
dation of bank loans will amount to
not less than 10 per cent within four
months, and it Is expected it will com
pel profiteers to unload their hoarded
stocks at greatly reduced pricee.
The railway labor board is working
nard on some plan by which the rail
laborers may be granted all or a large
part of their demand for Increased
wsges that will amount to a billion
dollars. Neither the railway man
agers nor anyone else denies that the
men deserve more pay, and in any
case It Is evident they must be given
it if rail transportation In America
Is to be maintained. Almost any of
the railway employees can get much
more money in other pursuits. At
present t£e board Is considering the
adoption of a sliding wage scale based
on the cost of living Index number.
Whether organized labor would accept
a reduction of wages in the future if
living costs went down Is a question.
So far, its policy has been to hold on
to all it gets. Borne time this matter
will be brought to the test. The slid
ing scale Is being tried out on the Eng
lish railways and some of the unions
are not satisfied with It.
Meanwhile the Interstate commerce
commission has a hard Job relieving
the congestion of traffic and averting
a threatened coal famine In the Chi
cago region. This was accomplished
to a considerable extent by sending
thousands of empty cars from the East,
and by means of temporary embargoes.
The car movement not only relieved
the coal situation, bpt also helped the
shipment of other commodities.
The Virginia state Democratic con
vention has furnished witot may be
accepted as in substance the declarh
tlon concerning the peace treaty which-
President Wilson will ask the national
convention In San Francisco to adopt,
The plank was formulated by Senator
Carter Glass, was submitted by him to
Mr. Wilson and received the latter's
Indorsement It reads thus:
"The Democratic party of Virginia
favors a League of Nations as the sur
est, If not the only, practicable means
of maintaining the permanent peace
of the world and*termlnating the In
sufferable burden of great military
and naval establishments. It was to
form this that America broke away
from traditional Isolation and spent
her blood and treasure to crush a
colossal scheme of conquest.
"We felicitate the president and his
associates on the exceptional achieve
ment at Paris involved In the adoption
of a league and treaty so near akin
to American Ideals and so Intimately
related to the aspirations of civilized
people, everywhere.
"We condemn ths Republlcsn senile
for Its refusal to ratify the treaty
merely because It was the product of
Democratic statesmanship, Interposing
partisan envy and personal hatred in
the way of the peace and revived pros
perity of the world.
"We advocate prompt ratification of
the treaty without reservations which
would Impair its essential Integrity.
Only by doing this may we retrieve
the reputation of this nation among
the powers of the earth and recover
the moral leadership which Wilson
won and which with amazing Indiffer
ence paltering Republican politician*
at Washington sacrificed."
The Virginia delegates are pledged
to support Glass for the nomination.
Democrats of Michigan. Indiana and
South Carolina Indorsed President
Wilson ard his policies and selected
unlns'.reeled delegations.
In Georgia the Democratic conven
tion. In the control of the forces led by |
Iloke Smith and Tom'Wataon, adopt- !
ed resolutions expressing "unalterable
opposition" to the league covenant aa
brought back from I'aris by the presi
dent ; demanding free speech, free and
unhampered press, local self-govern
ment and the repeal of all espionage, I
sedition and conscription laws passed 1
In tbe war period. The convention
also went on record as opposed to
•compulsory military training; record
ed opposition to the third term Idea,
and Instructed Its delegates to. San
Francisco to vote as s unit to support
no candidate not in accord with the
principles adopted by the convention.
Attorney General Palmer and his
forces made a brave light but were
outnumbered, 146 to 286.
Nebraska'a convention derlared for
Hitchcock for president suid warmly
Indorsed tbe peace treaty and league
covenant as Mr. Wilson brought them
from France.

led by Barney Barucb.
On the Republican side Oeneral
Wood won another victory during the
week, this time In Vermont He was
given the state's preferential vote by
a large plurality over Johnson, Hoover,
Lowden and Coolldge. In Pennsyl
vania, where the old guard Is well en
trenched, the primaries were held, and
the delegates to the Chicago conven
tion, It Is expected, will be for Gov
ernor Sproul. Their second cholee !
will probably be a matter of expedi
ency.
The Republican advisory committee
on platform has completed Its work
and will submit a unanimous report to
the convention committee on resolu
tions. Though It omits any mention
of the peace treaty, Mexican affairs
and prohibition, it covers about every
other possible subject as will be seen
In this list of the matters treated:
High cost of living; conservation;
civil service, and retirement; Insular
possessions; social problems; review
of Democratic administration and war
time legislation; taxation; postal re
form; Immigration; rallroods; agricul
tural policies; national economy re
trenchment and budget; military and
naval affairs; tariff; International
trade currency and banking; merchant
marine; regulation of Industry and
commerce; law and order; pensions
and war risk Insurance; Industrial r»
latlons and problems of labor and
capital, and limitations of federal and
state control and regulation.
By advice of the party leaders, the
three big subjects first mentioned art
left for the convention to deal with as
It sees fit.
At last reports Carransa was still la
flight in the state of Puebla, almost
alone, probably heading for the vir
tually impregnable fastnessee of the
Zacapoaxtla mountains. The tem
porary government of the republic la
functioning quietly and It has been
practically agreed that General Gon
zales shall be named provisional presi
dent by congress. The department of
state at Washington has been urged
to be cautious in recognizing or sup
porting any action that had part In the
overthrow of «|minza. The warning
came from representatives of Indus
trial groups having interests In Mexico
and from former Ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson and former Charge Nel
son O'Shaughnesay. They went defi
nite assurances as to the attltuds of
the new regime toward foreigners.
A great race la on among the na
tions for the control of the world's oil
supplies.* Great Britain Is off In the
lead. The Amerlcsn senete aaked
President Wilson as to the chances of
Americans acquiring oil producing
lands abroad and hie reply outllnee
the British policies es follows;
"1. Deferring foreign nationals from
owning or operating oil producing
properties In the British Isles, colonies
or protectorates. V,
"2. Direct psrtlclpetlon In the own
ership end control of petroleum pro
ducing companies.
"3. Arranging to prevent British oil
companies from selling their proper

Companleo.
"4. Or.iers In council thet prohibit
