PRESIDENT OF RUSSIAN DUIVIA HAPPY OVER NATION'S FUTURE

LONDON, April 6. Free speech and magnificent expansion after the war were predicted lor Russia by M. Rodzianlco, president of the Duma,, in an interview with a British correspondent -just published here. Russia, and Great Britain are now great friends, he said, and he commented iiv this humorous way on their former differences:' . :: ; -'"Oh. of. course, we have quarreled! But' that was natural. Even husband and wife! Well, it is not so? But that is long ago. The mistake was lhat we did not know, 'till the war (ame, that we were yes, that is it, that we were necessary each to the other. '.Vow we know. Those Germans have, taught us. - Ach, what a people! Phew! But we are good friends

England and Russia. Da, and we shall remain so. But certainly. England and the sea. Russia and the people. We are both strong. The people make us strong. The" sea. that makes you strong.' And we like each other. We

fare very proud ' and very i good com

pany. . We mix. Yes, we mix . very well. That is what I have thought a long time. The Russian, the Englishman,: they understand one another; "'And something: else. The vodka! We gave up drinking, not a drop of liquor to be gold, and when we most needed the money, the revenue, we who are so poor in Russia. -Yes, you like that too? .

the liquor. , Well, that is something. Yes," it is something. People thought that Ahe liquor made them strong. Now' they know it is not the troth. Well, that is good. But come now you tell me about England. What do they think of us?" "Well, may I say this ?" answered the correspondent "But, yes, of course. You may say anything,' M. Rodzianko laughed heartily. - "While the whole nation admired Russian valor and the self-sacrifice of government and .nation, some of us would feel u happier I am almost afraid to say : it ! if the Duma were not quite so often and quite so unintelligently dissolved." "Ah, but you see it the war which

consumes us. We are so busy, we have no time to-talk. This war it is i

so immense, it is so huge, it is the whole world! We have got to beat those Germans', and they are strong, they have-men,-machines, they have great guns ; but we must beat them. It will take a long time; it may take a very long time. But we will do it. Da. da! And so we dissolve the Duma. It is no use to talk: All must work. After the war we talk. Yes, after the war we talk. But not now. No! now we work."

"And now," shouted, Linus P. Meredith, former district chairman and a Wayne delegate as alternate for Harry Holmes, "we are repaid for this courtesy by", Union county's "four delegates casting their votes for Bridgeman, who comes from a county -which -does- not have enough Republican votes to flag a handcar."

Judge Comstock had requested that Wayne county not be given recognition in the making of such appointments. - Bossart was promptly informed that if Judge Comstock had made such a request the fact had never been communicated to the members of the Wayne county delegation. He' was also told that "good politics" should have prompted the Union county delegates to have given at least half their votes if not all of them to Wayne county's candidate, In the first place because he was a former Bull Mooser; in the second place bccanse Union

county, owed a political debt to Wayne county. - . -, - - Bossart was even instructed to bear the sad tidings to Mr. La Fuze that Union : county's "double cross" would not .be forgotten at the polls next November. !.-'.
