The Bolshevik forces are seeking to destroy religion by bringing It into contempt. Ac cording to a correspondent at Kkater Inodar, they recently conducted In a church with all ceremony, a mock marriage between an aged priest and a mare. The choir was forced to sing chants under threats of death. The Moscow Soviets have publish ed an official parody on the funeral sen Ices supposed to be over the body of a dog. In the north Caucasus, bayonets were thrust thru iron In such a way as to bore a hole In the mouth of Christ and a cigarette put In the hole.

A newspaper of the Independent Socialist party appeals for the signing of the peace terms saving that "even if important changes are brought about by the negotiations, there remains no choice but to bow to compulsion and sign the treaty. Not signing means re tention of our prisoners of war, oc cupation of our raw materials, dl9 tricts, blockade, hunger and death."

MANY ARE PLANNED nldlcatlons of Building Investment In Klamath Falls This Saon A. fCrrgate Half Million Dollars Con tract Let for Fine Structure to Cofer Brothers. . Another Indication of the trend ot business towards Klamath arenas comes today in the announcement, through J. F. Magulre. who handled the negotiations, that P. M. Reldy, of Long Beach, California, will erect a. new building at the corner of Seventh streets and Klamath avenue. The structure will be of pressed brick on both sides, of the same construction as the building of the California-Oregon Power Company, which It ad Joins, and will cost In the neighbor hood of $10,000 when completely fin ished. Cofer Brothers have already . been awarded the contract. When finished it will be occi pled I by the Link River Electric cimp.i'iv. which firm has leased the room for five years The work of ereri'r.' the building will begin at ,oncp .intl It xv ill be readv for occupancy p Au gust 1. Upwards of a dozen new bulMtugs are under consideration The aggre gate investment, if all the plans are carried out this year, will mount up to nearly half a million, and this is only the beginning. The one sreat handicap so far has been the belief of so many that prices were comlag down, but investors are beginning to realize that this is not going to hap pen and that they are losing money while they are waiting far more than they could possibly save by any drop in the cost of construction. There is a big demand for flrstclass structures and prospective tenants are offering rents that prove quits attractive and pay good Interest on any investment that may be made. The result is going to be one of the liveliest periods of building construc tion ever experienced In this city.
