The commeicial CIUD semi-monthly meeting at the Olympian Wednesday, was well attended, and the speech by Col. Bayllss was closely listened to. The Colonel began by saying that he always wanted to know of every man he meets just what he doeswhat his occupation is; however, he did not enlighten his audience as to what his own calling is. Though we have understood from other that he is a preacher, or used to be. He made a lengthy speech outlining the terrible danger that faces the people of the United States from a revolution which he says is imminent.

His eloquence stirred every man present against anarchy and anarchists, socialism and socialists, com-i munism and communists, and he included the non-partisan league farmers in with those whom he denounced in bitterest terms. He told over in detail of the de portatlon of Emma Goldman whom he characterized as "an old hag," and of Alexander Berkman, the anarchist who was deported on the same ship. He also recounted the trial of five socialists who were expelled from the New York legislature by a Republican-Tammany combination over the protest of Teddy Roosevelt, and Justice Hughes. Col. Bayllss, however took the stand that Roosevelt and Hughes were wrong and the socialists should hr.ve been expelled.

He told how Victor Berger was not allowed to speak in Jersey City, or Boston, though he was allowed to speak in New York City. He quoted and endorsed Judge Landls. who sai 1 that "Berger should be stood up against a wall and shot." The speaker warned our people that we are aslepp to the Impending danger, and should awake before we, like Russia, are in the throes of a revolution. He advocated forcible means of quelling the spread of radical doctrines and declared that "Russian Soviets are among us right now." The colonel's story was somewhat personal being for tlie most part a recital of hia own experiences and achievements in this work of alarmlag the people to the danger which threatens us.

Aug. 19. Considering the fact that the willing support of the American people to selective service was the cornerstone of the creation of our great army and our successful military achievements, the war deportment does not deem it proper to pursue the policy of unjustifiable leniency towards those who deliberately evaded military service. The creation of the huge arm? which was sent to the battlefield? abroad was the result of the selective service act of May 18, 1917. Although critics of American institutions predicted that in the event of a great war the people of the United States would fall to rise to the full heights of patriotism and self-sacrifice in defense of their country, because of selfish motives and foreign Influences, the -war has proven that the old American spirit of sacrifice end service is not only bat more widespread then ever before.

During the period of active hoetillties, the government was assisted by the various officials and agencies in apprehending draft a small but constant stream of whom were being delivered to posts, campe and stations; but because of thetatt that those days were crowded with mature' of more tiftsortutts. special jfttentioh coald.not be given during that thne to the running down of the comparatively small number of draft deserters.
