The German government faces the most serious situation since the first revolution. With a new Sparvacan uprising now developing in all parts of the coun try, recent dispatches indicate tilat further success of the radicals in the central districts might render the government virtually powerless. The Spartacans are apparently deter mined, above everything else, to iso late llerlin from southern Germany, and nre concentrating large rorces in the central district for the purpose of preventing the movement of gov ernment troops southward. Weimar Is already cut off from the rest or tlie country. If the revolution triumphs in the south the national assembly will fall. For I'l-olilnlluil'y Pence.

Out of the crucible, fresh from hell-hot bombarding in the Argonne, surviving the mud at llrest. un scarred after ducking the Hun whizz bangs at the front and succeeding in escaping the winsome lassies both here and there, seven gold chev roned Roseburg soldier sons proudly, and yet affectionately, if such a thing be possible, stepped off the morning train into the open arms of relatives, sweethearts and friends back to the fold.

War, we know, is Just what Sherman said about it, but one could not help but feel that there is some recompense for the survivors, upon witnessing the reunion at the passenger station this morning. When the train carrying the local troops rounded into view there was a wild rush of humanity toward the depot platform to catch ft glimpse of a son. or a brother long absent yes. and sweetheatrs were there loo. The boys. Just as anxious to again see home fonts, were waving greet ings from the car platforms as the train pulled into the station and the ; grinding of brakes and the clatter of ithe reslaurers' gong were over shadowed for the moment by loud.

The hall had been heautitfully decorated for the occasion and the song numbers aug mented by much comedy entertained the dancers and spectators In u de lightful manner. Forest Supervisor S. C. Bart rum in the role of a female exhibition dancer "brought down the house," and the interpretation of the fox trot enacted by "she" und a part ner, Mrs. S. C. Hartrum In men's attire, proved beyond a doubt that avoirdupois and gracefulness run hand in hand. The music furnished by OU'b or chestra was up to the usual high standard and each dance number was followed by much applause. The whole affair was a decided success from every standpoint and the happy dancers reluctantly wended their way homeward at midnight. SON IS NOW IUCTI ltMN; IIO.MK 1'UOM OV FltSKAS. L. L.

He wrote: "Hitting the high spots for home. Will be there in a week or so. Will telegraph from Chico, Calir." He entered the service at Chico. Calif., und will probably be mustered out there. He has doubtless already arrived at San Francisco and will probably reach home In a week or ten days. His brother Alva, who was a member of the 6!Mh, was ex pected to reach Portland next Wed nesday. A postcard received from him today stated that he .was III with mumps in Furnce and did not sail with the 6!Hh for home.
