The menace of Bolshevism has created a critical sit nation in Hungary whose general outlook Is considered Infinitely worse than In German-Austria. Under the present government the condition of the country Is described as chaotic and a serious Bolshevik outbreak is expected. . With, its army disbanded the government is unable to offer resistance even it it had the courage and energy to do so. Public moneys, it is asserted, are being "squandered" at an "appalling rate" and leading financiers express fear of bankruptcy of the state. The whole situation in the country is re ported to be "inconceivably worse than at any time during the four years of war." ' The government is preparing to hold general elections but under the present conditions this appears to be a physical impossibility. There are no lists of voters, and the franchise has been extended from 1,500,000 to 7,000,000 including women who have been granted suffrage. With part of the country occupied by enemies, elections in these districts will be Impossible,, it Is declared. ; . The fear, of Bolshevism Is growing dally and everywhere the people are urging that the allies intervene. They express the fear, that the conditions now existing in Russia will , be re peated iii Hungary. Hungarian pris oners of war" have returned from Bussia imbued with Bolshevik ideas and are spreading the propaganda. It is the general opinion of the peo ple that the Karolyl cabinet made a mistake in disbanding the army leav ing the country at the mercy of the invaders. .'-,.-,-' ,i While the greatest dissatisfaction is expressed in political circles and among the people generally, and min isterial crises are daily occurences, no political party seems',- willing to assume the reins of government. Count. Karolyi appears to be the only 'leader available. BUTTE. Mont.. Feb. 18. The coun ty clerk's office here was again be sieged today by a lonz line of foreisn ern seeking naturalization miners. The omvemenfc began yesterday when the mining companies had reached a decision to employ onlv Americans or those who had declared their inten tions of becoming citizens of the Uni ted States. Eighty foreign born men applied for first nnpers yesterday and it was estimated thut at least that many would make application today liHlgine from the line at the clerk's office this morning. , . , ,.: The report that the mining compa nies would employ onlv citizens or those who had applied for citizenship, lacks verification, but from all sources during the last few davs has come the report that it would be done and it seems that it. had caused the rush lor first papers. r Cut This Out It Is Worth Money DON'T MISS THIS.

C. RTTICISMof the Y. M. turned soldiers lias resulted iii mi ol iieuu inycstigii tion by JMrei'tov General Mott, in which he frankly admits minor mistakes, both in methods and selection of pcr- sonnal, but eojisidei-inj the ed in, gives the " a clean toll, ot health. 'According to its own officials, the "Y" has been ad mirably conducted. However the "proof of the puddiii' it. the eatin' of it," and the fact remains that the soldiers, for whose benefit it was conducted, and for .whose welfare the American people gave the "Y" hundreds of millions of dollars, are not as well satisfied. ' ' N Most of the complaints, sinuneved down are due to mitaetful agents or to alleged overcharges in the salo ol supplies in, the canteens really a side issue and forced on the "Y" by the government. As all other war organiza tions made no charge to the soldiers for service, but left payment optional, tiie "Y" charges or as the Yanks term ed, overcharges, aroused resentment. The complaints forced intervention by the army, ; -which established a schedule of prices. In contrast to the "Y" canteens, there have been nr complaints of overcharges in the canteens operated by the Red Cross. , - The complaining soldiers overlook the veaily threat work done by the "Y," the establishment of club houses and recreation centers, the lectures, movie entertainments and free amusement provided, the baseball paraphernalia furnished and the welfare work among the soldiers. All these really' fine things are taken for granted and forgot ten, but a five cent overcharge on a package of tobacco lingers long iu the mind of tho soldier and makes the " Y" a svnonym of graft. In this connection it would be well to have an impar tial investigation of the overseas work of the "YM vou dueted by those not affiliated with the organization, so that the people may be assured of. the facts iu the matter for where there is so much smoke there may be some fire. OPPOSING THE LEAGUE. R EFUSAL by Senator Borah to attend the conference called with senate leaders bv the president indi cates that a stubborn fight will be made in the senate against the proposed league of nations by the senators who uphold the old traditional policy of national isolation which was shattered when the United States became a participant in the European war. The opposition to the league has not been made a par tisan matter. The proposal of a league when embraced iu the president's 14 points enunciated over a year ago, met with universal favor until those points had actually been accepted by all the belligerants as a foundation for peace. Then opposition, largely partisan in its character, was first evoked. ' Ex-President Taft has voiced the sentiments of a ma jority of republicans iu favor of the league, as President Wilson has voiced that of the majority, of democrats. Senators of both parties, however, oppose the 'league. Most of the opposition seems centered in the ranks of the ex-progressives now seeking the limelight as presidential possibilities Borah, Poindexter and Johnson.. The war altered the face of the world it is impossible td go back to our old provincial aloofness. The nation has become a dominating factor in the affaire of the world and league or no league must hcreatter play its role as the chief exponent of democracy. This it can best do in the league of nations, which it is fondly hoped, will become a supreme court of the world to arbitrate the disputes of nations a real mile stone in Banat Sought by Rumania and Serbia WASHrXGTON1, Feb. 18. "Banat, in southeast Hungary, where Ruma nian and Serbian claims conflict, is rich in agriculture, minerals and history," states a bulletin issued from Washington headquarters of the national Georeraphlc society. "Political football of continental powers for centuries, battleground for armies that turned the course of European history, experiment station for early reclamation projects and scene of a pioneer 'back to the farm' movement, Banat never has cut a large political figure on its own ac count. "The district derives its name from a form of government it never had. A territory governed by a 'ban,' who corresponds to- tho German 'mark graf, or the early polish 'pan,' mean ing master or lord, was known as a banat under former Hungarian desig nation. Banats of Dalmatia, Bosnia, and Croatia disappeared during the Turkish wars but, curiously, the name clung to the counties of Toron tal, TemeB and Krasso-Szoreny, tho this group never was ruled by a 'ban.'..' '.''.-' ' "Long referred to as 'The Banat,' the region today commonly is called 'Banat.' Sometimes It is described more exactly as 'Banat of Temesvar,' thus identifying it by its principal city, less than 200 miles southeast of Budapest. . ."Temesvar, picturesque and buiy before tho world war, bears both scars and monuments of its eventful history. Its springs were known to the Romans. The Tartars destroyed it. Its diet was the foundation for the Hungarian representative sys tem. , "Xear Temevar were defeated tin peasant forces headed by 8:eph.in Dosza, in their encounter with Jnjp Szanolyal, of Transylvania four cen turies ago. Desza was captured, a throne of fire was built In mock hon or of the 'king of peasants,' and as ho was placed nmld the flames a red hot crown was aot upon (lis head. A.'S WAR WORK. 0, A. work in France hyw- magnitude of the work engag the path of human progress. Thus Dosza's name became a Hun garian by-word for heroism, and, ac cording to popular bollof, Szapolai was smitten with blindness for his cruelty. "Today the crumbling walls of the inner city of Temesvar, from which radiate avenues, like wheel spokes. to four suburbs, bear testimony ot tbe strong fortifications built by King Charles Robert, of Aniou, one or tbe most powerful monarchs of his da)-. "Rich agricultural lands about the city, and thruout Banat, recall the drainage of marshes, swamps and thick forests, Instituted by Maria Theresa, tbe 'Good Queen Bess' of Austrian history, who. Incidentally, almost accomplished the overthrow of Frederick the Great. She failed, partly because Russia abandoned the allies of tbe Seven Years' War. "An arsenal stands where Hunyadl .7 an os built a castle fifty years before Columbus set sail for America. That famous Hungarian general is credit ed with being one of the first military leaders to substitute strategy and organization for personal courage. So successful was his theory that he all but drove the Turks out ot Europe. "Conspiuous In Tcmesvar's princi pal square is a Gothic shaft, ordered there by Emperor Francis Joseph, In recognition of the city's defenders during a 107-day siege against Hun garian revolutionists of 1813. "llanat covers an arna a little smaller, and liar, a ovulation clfchtly greater, than the state of Maryland. Tf nnsvar today has a population about equal to that of Waterbury, Conn., Elizabeth, S. V., or Fort Worth, Texas." . t ' Get Rid of That Persistent Cough Stop timt weakening persistent cough or cold, threatening throat or lung affections, with Kckman's Alterative, tne tonli- and UpbuHder of 20 yearn rut'iewriil ma. ttic find fl.GO Ijottlon from (imctfliU:!, op from BOLSHEVISM THREATENS IN .
