NOME. ALASKA, JULY 7, 1917.
THE MASSES WILL RULE.
Out of all the vast mass of <iues
tions being propounded with respect |
to the ultimate issues of the great
war one at least seems undeniably
clear—that out of the maelstrom of
strife and slaughter will come rule
by the masses.
This is as certain as anything in
the world.
Some day in the not distant future
a peace congress will meet some
where and there will be a vast deal
of bowing and ceremony and a vastly
greater amount of bickering and bar
gaining and subtile intriguing and
then a number of profound appearing
gentlemen with orders on their coat
lapel will reach an agreement; a
document will be signed and the war
will be over as far as the military
aspects are concerned. Then the
armies will march home to the blare
of triumphal music, flags will wave
and orators will send forth forensic
fireworks; there will be glad rejoic
ing and deafening cheers and people
will thank God that the days of trial
and strugglo and burning misery are
oVer.
But the war will not be over as fai
ns the more Important phases are con
cerned .
In fact the really important Issues
of the war will not develop until after
the forn-al peace is made.
On tout far oft fateful day when
the star of Napoleon set foiever on
the bloody field of Waterloo the mon
arch.; of the allied nations rejoiced
that th? overthrow of the Little Cor
poral had destroyed the to them, un
sanctlflcj doctrine, that uie peorle
have tii; r!*ht to set up a government
of th.?ir ov n and run it themselves
without let or hindrance or hereditary
rulers, God annolnted or otherwise.
Doubtless they congratulat ed them
selves exceedingly that su h (*101.
clous doctrines had been destroyed
with t je downfall of the mighty war
rior who had dared to assume the
dignities cf royalty with the consent
of the people.
But *.hey licked not that ot*w and
mightier f :'f« than Naioleon were
looseJ in tne minds of m»i; they did
not think flat the Amer.’a»p and
French levulufions had biought into
being a scan thing that was to live
forever to the detriment of kings and
princes, f.’rj did not know that It
was not li e 1 atural rights of peoples
but the divl.'o right of kings which
had rec <1 ed the hardest blow -
But it >vn—and will hr so again.
The military operations of tho
present war may result In the defeat
0/ the Teutonic armies or the over*
throw of the nllios but, regardless
of which It may be the real victory
will be the people’s and nothing that
may occcur on the battlefields or on
(the wide spreading reaches of the
sea can alter that victory.
The rule of the masses has come
to Europe and come to stay regardless
of what ^agreements are made be
tween the rulers of the contending
hosts.
Russia has already cast asfide the
shackles of hereditary rule nnd
emerged in the fullness of a new
found being to rule itself as the peo
ple wish to be ruled.
And all this marvelous happening
is a direct result of the war and
■would probably .not have happened
for a long period bad there been no
war,
And what has happened In Russia
as a result of the war will happen
again and again before the war is
really over and the final ’issues de
termined.
The real war, the war for the com
plete liberation of mankind from the
thralldom of kings nnd potentates,
will not really commence until the
day that peace has been signed.
The war will continue in the minds
of people until they have won not
only complete political rule but also
that vastly greater thing, economic
rule, the benefits of which nre not
alone for living generations but for
the races yet unborn and the ages to
come.
TRENCH TALES.
“This is my third time home with
wounds,” said a young Irish sergeant
through bandages which came near
covering his entire head, “but Its not
going to be the last though they’ve
made a pukka mess of me this time.
They’ve fairly peppered me with
shrap. There arent many of the old
crowd left with my battalion now,"
he said, adding that he had been in
the “fun since Mons.” “My company
got a new draft not long before ve
attacked and the new boys went over
the top’like the rest of us older ones.
That's the sort of thing that used to
surprise us regulars hut we’ve got
over It by this time. Its all the one
game and the new ones play it like
good uns. They’re up to beating
Fritz any time.

Lieut. A. A. E. Batchelor's left arm,
