the nuw nunio tliat has oiiil up out
of the ItusMnn wollcr. The man,
his personality, Ills tiiuiu'nu'vi tiro
Rrutu nml his opportunity unite to
r it ls; tlu (iiiuHtlon: Is lie the tiiiiu
of the hour?
Many names have come up out
of this same Itusslnn welter since
the IlomauofTs fell. And many of
lliese names linvo passed. Kerenslty eame up ami
parsed. Kolchtlk came up nml passed. Denlklne
came up and patiseil. Now comes up WraiiKel.
Will this nntl-Holshevll; leader In South Ilussla
May or will he pass like these other foes of the
lied menace?
The long nnd losing struggle of the Russian
ngnlnst the dictatorship of Lenlne and Trotsky
neemed to have collapsed with the fall of Kolchak
Jn the north nnd Denlklne In I he south. Then
flashed forth Wi angel In the south nnd the strug
gle wns renewed. Now the French government has
recognized General Wrnugel as the head of the de
facto government of southern Ilussla. America
liaB given notice through the note of the secretary
of state to the Itnllnn nmlmss-ador that It will not
consent to recognize the Soviets as the government
of Russia. And the United States has been mak
ing Inquiry to settle for Itself what this General
IVrnngel represents nnd what he purposes to do.
Geneml Wrc.ngel leads what may be called Hip
fifth great White Russian crusade against the Red
Fovlct government of Moscow. The world was
startled to rend that ho had emerged from his
stronghold In the Crimen, coincident with tho demo
lition of Red armies by the Poles, and had thrust
Ins fresh forces eastward across the straits of
Azov on to the bolshevik mainland of the North
Oiucnsms and linil occupied the great Donetz coal
basin, 850 miles to the north.
Then General Wrnngel announced plnns for re
organization of his forces Into two armies and one
Independent corps. The tlrst nrmy will hold the
northeastern front nnd will be commanded by Gen
eral Gutepow, whose headquarters will be at Meli
topol. The secoiid army will operate In the prov
ince of Kuban iiiul will he led by the famous Mon
golian general. Ulngala. The Independent corps
was holding tho line of the Dnieper river. This
reorganization Is the first step mnde In preparing
for the co-operation of nil Cosnck forces.
"Various Cossack expeditions we hnve sent to
Yelsk and other points In Kuban nnd the Don ter
ritory are nilvnnclng eastward, being heartily sup
ported nnd Joined by local Cossacks," said General
Wrangel. "Our tr.ivy Is now restored to u point
where It can effectively support our troops In any
jioxslblo sen action, and consequently, the time Is
propitious for giving tho Don, Kuban, Astrekan nnd
Terek Cossacks the organization needed for utiliz
ing their unlimited resource against their op
pressors. "The Cossacks hnvo men, foodstuffs nnd ani
mals sufllclent for n long fight, and the spirit with
which they have Joined the expeditions sent to
help them Indicates they will soon hold nil Impor
tant ports and railways to the Georgian border."
General Wrnngel has announced his program
to be the establishing of a new government for all
of Russia founded upon democratic principles and
' Alenls. Ills statement to France Is as follows:
' "1. In the first place, In establishing n perma
nent Russian government south Russia will give
to all the Russian people the opportunity to choose
the fonn of government desired by free vote
"2. The south Russian government guarantees
political end social equality and security to all Rus
sian citizens regardless of their descent or religion.
"3. The land will be turned over to those peo
ple actually engaged In Its cultivation nnd all prop
erty already turned over to the peasants during the
revolution will he regarded as legally held and ti
tles will be Issued to them. This reform nlready
Is being carried out In territory now held by thu
armed forces of south Russia.
"4. Special protection will be afforded the In
boring clnsM-s nnd their organizations.
"5. The south Russian government will endenv
or to unite the new governmental formations of
Russia under a broad, dcmncrutlc federation based
apon mutunl Interest, primarily of economic nature.
"0. Economically the government will attempt
to establish a constructive force In Russia founded
upon the principle of private Initiative.
"7. The government will assume all foreign obli
gations contracted by the former Rucslnn govern
ment. "8. All debts will Do paid, dependent upon tho
fulfillment of a program of economic reconstruc
tion." Who is this Gen. Haron Peter Wrangel who hat
flashed so lirlllliinlly upon the world's eye? An
nlllelal lepnrt received al Washington says he Is
but ililny-iilne years of i.ge; Hint he Is ol German

A. COS6A&C-
The until is that he Is a member nnd appar
ently a worljiy member of u remarkable Interna
tional family which truces Its origin to the nobility
of the IJnltlc states In lUOO. There have been
brunches In Sweden, Germany nnd Russia. Of the
Swedish branch the most famoiw wns Admiral Carl
Gustav Wrangel, who commanded the Swedish ar
mies In the last campaign of the Thirty Years'
War. Of the Gorman Wrangels the best known
wns the old Field Mnishul Graf von Wrangel,
whose military career was long and Illustrious.
Among the Russian members of the family there
Is that explorer who gave his name to Wrangel
Island off the north coast of Eastern Siberia and
who Is linked with America through his services
as governor of Alaska.
Gen. Raron Peter Wrangel, the subject of this
sketch, began his career In the Russian nrmy in
1001, enlisting In the Norse Guards regiment as n
private after having been educated us a mining
engineer. He left the nrmy n year later, follow
ing promotion to n lieutenancy, hut re-enllsted upon
the outbreak of the Russo-.lupanese war, In which
he wns twice promoted for bravery. Subsequently
he was graduated from the General Stnff academy
nnd nt the outbreak of the World war was a cup
tn I u In comnmnd of n cavalry quadrou.
For distinguished service with this commnnd ho
wns decorated with the highest Russian military
order the Crows of St. George. Promotion to tho
rank of colonel followed; he wns appointed un ulde
to the czjir and later became commuuder of the
First Trnns-Ralkal Cossack regiment, with which,
in .Inly, 1010, he captured an entire battalion. He
was then made majoi general.
As a division couimnnder and later as com
mander of a cavalry corps he continued with tho
nrmy until the disorders of the revolution had
completely undermined Its morale. Then, with
many other Russian ofllcers, be fled to the Cauca
sus. He was arrested by the bnlshcvlkl and nar
rowly escaped execution. The story Is told that
ho escaped only through the heroic devotion of his
wife, who followed him to prison and obtnlned his
release after persistent nppeals.
In the summer of 1018, with the growth of the
volunteer nntl-HolshevIk nrmy, he got commnnd of
n brigade under General Krdel. Ills chief fell ill,
nnd Wrangel, succeeding to the commnnd, nttuined
(he liberation of the whole of the north Caucasus
nnd the Terek stnte. He wns promoted to tho
rank of lieutenant general and given command of
tiieCniunshm army.
Then came his tost of strength with the com
tnnnder In chief of tho volunteer nrmy, General
Denlklne. Under Denlklne. Wrnngel commanded
the right wing of the southern armies. He miido
the brilliant capture of Tsarltsln on the Volga nnd
later, when It wns too late, took command of the
central armies, which had been beaten on the front
nearest Moscow. When Denlklne gave up the
struggle and departed, ho formally banded over
command of the southern armies to Wrnngel As
Denlklne had previously acknowledged the Kol
rhuk government. 'Wrnngel stands us the succes
sor of that government, which the United Unites
desired at one time to leeognlro, hut whose weak
ness prevented.
General Wrnngel now hol.lf. Unit pnrt of Rus

Ills left Is protected by 'the wide sweep of ulie
Dnlejfer ns It turns southwest from Ekaterlnoslav,
past Kherson to the Hlnck sea. Ills Hue to the east
readies the Sea of Azov at about Mariupol, and
beyond that stretch to the east the vast territories
of the Don Cossacks,' hard lighting foes of the bol
shevik regime am! nil It stands lor. To the south
of the Don Cossacks are the territories of the Ku
ban Cossacks, who fought with Denlklne ngnlnst
the Red in tales, but later (levelled their chief by
tlie thousands when they felt ilnit their -' rlsticul

sia. This position of the
Wiaimel armies gives them

Sebastopol is only 200 miles (rom Constantinople.
Tho allies huvo In tho near east large tnllltnry
stores, ns Lloyd George nnnounced In Ids speech
to tho house of commons. The sovlots, In their
various proposals to restore relations with Great
Rrltaln, have Insisted upon surrender of Wrangel s
forces, thus admitting the correctness of the
Riitlsh prime minister's characterization of
Wrnngel's movements ns "formidable." Further
more, the Communist central committee In Moscow
telegraphed to ull Its branches on July 10 of thra
year:
"Ills (Wrnngel's) offensive has already causoM
tho soviet republic great dllllcultles. Knch success
or the general, even the most modest one, deprives
Soviet Russia of great quantities of gmln, coal and
oil, nnd spells n spread of starvation, destitution,
lack of fuel and destruction of transport. Tho
Communist party should understand that n liquida
tion of General Wrnngel's undertaking u .ab
solute necessity for Soviet Russia."
As a fighting force the now nrmy will depend
mainly on Hie Cossacks. It was Denlklno's failure
to bold the allegiance of these warriors, coupled
with endless dissension behind his lines among his
politicians, that wrecked his hopes of overthrow
ing the soviet.
Wiungel's nrrnngement with the Cossncks al
lows lor their complete Independence In their do
mestic and civil affairs. According to an agree
ment made on April 111 of this your the Hetmnn of
the Don Cossacks recognizes Wrnngel as highest
military chief In return for this autonomy and
Wrnngel agrees to consult the Hetmnn on all ne
gotiations with foreign powers on questions per
tulnlng to Cossnck troops and territories.
Thus Wrangel begins by avoiding the great mis.
take of Denlklne. He seeks co-operation of all
foes of the bolshevlkl, but not domlnutlon over
them.
"My slogan Is," he said, "with whomsoever you
please! hut for Russia."
He has before him the lesson of the shattering
of Denlklne's hopes, tn whose campaigns he.plnycd
a brilliant part. What the causes of that failure
were, he himself bus put thus:
"Summing them up, It may he snld that strategy
was sacrificed to politics, and those politics were
no good nt all. Instead of uniting nil the forces
that made It their aim to combat bolsbevlsm and
Instead of pursuing one Russian policy, without
any party affiliations, there was u Volunteer army
policy, n soit of private politics whose leaders saw
In ali that did not bear the stamp of the Volunteer
nrmy enemies of Russia. They fought the bolshe
vlkl. nnd they fought the Ukrnlnlnns, Georgians
nnd Azerbaijans. And It would not have taken
much to have started war with the Cossacks, too,
who composed half of our army nnd with their
blood cemented the connection with tho regular
troops on the battlefield."
The territories of the Cossacks were engulfed
In the cweep of tho Red nrmles toward the Cauca
sus. They represent still, however, uccordlng to
their spokesmnn In Paris, V. A. Kliarlamnv, n
force of "several scores of thousands" of fighting
men.
As for the attitude of the Cossncks toward bol
sbevlst title, M. Khurlnmov says:
"The deiuoerncy of Europe should remember
this: The Cossacks are unable to nccept tho so
viet regime . they are organically Incapable of be
COInlng Communists. The Cossacks nro In their
overwhelming majority thrifty farmers. There I
no such thing as u Cossnek proletariat In existence,
The Cosst.ck Is by nature an individualist, holding
very dear his personal liberty. Not In vain did
the' revolution affect the Cossacks, They are uoliit'
to defend ibeli fieedom, their rights nnd llhoitlo
with nil 'I'olr iplcht.''
I. The King His Own Herald (vv
12-17).
1. The reason for (v. 12). Tho news
of the Impiisomueiit of John the Itap
list caused Jestis to forsake .tuden
and go Into Galilee. The fate of Joint
lie uccepted as foioshndowlng his own
llecnuse of this, lu withdrew from
the metropolis and went to (he re
mote regions where his work would
attract less attention. When the peo
ple wilfully reject the truth and at
tempt to do lolenoo to the messen
ger, In should turn from Ihem unless
specially directed otherwise.
2. To whom the proclamation ip
made (vv. l.'i-lll). The people In
Capernaum. This was done In fulfill
ment of u prophecy In Isaiah 0:1, 2.
These people did not enjoy such priv
ileges ns those around Jerusalem.
This was one of tho darkest and uiosl
corrupt of the provinces, nnd now It
Is getting the light first. This fore
shadowed the present nge when the
grace of God would reach out to the
Gentiles. P.ut tills Is Just like tin
Lord. He did not come to call thr
righteous, but sinners to repentance.
It should be our business, like the
Muster, to go to the most benighted
souls with the message of light anil
life.
:i. Ills message (v. 17). "Repent,
for the kingdom of heaven Is at
hand." This ,s the same kingdom
which John the Rnptlst and the Old
Testament prophets proclaimed. II
moans the Messianic earth rule ol
Jesus Christ. Tills Is not our mes
sage, for ours Is the gospel of the
graco of God through faith In the fin
ished work of Christ. We should cull
upon men to repent nnd believe the
gospel of Christ's death for their sln
nnd resurrection for Justification. The
time Is coming w lien hernlds will aealn
nnnounco the entiling of the kingdom,
nnd the King himself will come forth
from the heavens to establish his
mediatorial kingdom. For tthls we
pray when we Intelligently sny, "Thy
kingdom come."
II. The King Summons Servants tc
His side (vv. 8:22).
1. Ills command of authority (v 10)
He did not use arguments, but Issued
the mandate. The King's voice Is
nutocmtlc. To command Is the King's
prerogative, not to argue or entrent.
2. Tho statloti of the servants called
(vv. 18. 21). They were men of Jowly
birth fishenntMi. God chooses the
foolish things of this world to put to
shame the mighty. Hint no flesh might
boast before him (1 Cor. 1 :2(5).
.'1. They were called to definite son
Ice (v. 10). "I will make you fishers
of men." Ho laid previously culled
them to bo disciples (John 1::t0-l2).
He now cnlleil them to service, this
call. then, wns not tho gospel call to
sinners, which Is nlwnys "Relievo on
me," but the onll to service, of thoe
who had already hooded the call to
d'selploshlp. Tho qualities which
made them good fishermen patience,
bravery to face the storm and the
filnfit. the perseverance which tol'ed
nil night though no fish were caught,
would make them good fishers of men.
A. Their prompt obedience (vv. 20,
22). They gave up their business nnd
homes, not even Inquiring whore their
snlnry vvn to come from. They put
their trust In him who catted, believ
ing that he wns able to supply their
needs.
III. The King's Triumphal Progres
(vv. 23-25)).
Mo wont the whole rounds of Gnllloo
teaching the Scriptures, preaching the
gospel of the kingdom, nnd healing
all manner of diseases. Ho did n
threefold work :
1. Teaching tho Scriptures In the
s.Mingogues (v. 2.1). Tho revolution of
God needed, to bo explained. This Is
whnt ho wns doing nt Nazareth (Luke
4:10-22).
2 Preaching tho clad tidings of tho
kingdom (v. 2J1). The King "ho wns
present nnd was heralding his own
mission wus' renily to establish his
kingdom If they would hnve been
willing to Twelve him.
!1. Healing all' manner of diseases
(v. 2.'t). There wns no fonn of dis
