".Not only that the leader of this luovcmeut received money from the German (ioverninent, but, in fact, hp is a I'nissian agent. It is known that not only he, but the majority ot his comrades, are Oerman Jews. "A Pi'trograd (orrespondent who investigated the past o( every lueiu- ber of the present Itnssian Govern- ment (Bolshevlki) was convinced that the Russian names of those men were pseudonyms only "For example, the real name premier is not Lenine, but Zeber "The ex-Secrotary of Agriculture,!

"His confidant, who calls himself j Gansekl, possesses the real nam-e of i I''insterberg. j "The other Lenine camerade.s who ; took part in this counter-revolution, calling themselves Zinovieft, Kamye- | nefr,, Goreff, Matzkersky, .Martow .Suchanoff and Zagoisky, are nobody else but Applebaum, Zederbauni, Ros- enfeld, Goldman, Goldberg, Hinmer and Krachraan. "It is sufficient to examine their names to discover the German ruse. The counter-revolution which was consummated fully by the ftussian nation, desiring liberty, presents it- self as a ruse organized in Prussian style. The Prussians have always used such means for cenliiries In or- der to conquer nations which they detested. The best prooC is Poland. Tl".;-re, where they were unable to win the war in an honorable way, they used ruse, employing intrigue and murder as well in order to obtain their object. "The present war gives us enough similar examples of tht; detestable ways used by Gerraan.*;. With the old of treason and fooling they try to conquer the whole world. Only a fool could believe in tl.e smallest pro- raises from Berlin, until Ihe Hohen- zollerns' reign, supported by treason and lirntal force, shall be totally crushed." 1 r. < .< I \ .1 Millinery Opening FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, MARCH 22 AND 23 Ladies are cordially invited to be present at our Millinery Opening.
