RUSSIAN CAMPAIGN.
NEW YORK, August 19. The United Press correspondent at Moscow telegraphs that the forthcoming Moscow conference marks i\ip end of pan-Socialistic rule in Russia and the entrance of new eleT ments of Conservatism in commerce and finance. Socialists have failed in their attempt to govern, partly because the cities are Socialistic and the country is Conservative,' and partly because of internal quarrels, which precipitated the July massacre, also the effort to dominate lehind the scenes without assuming responsibility. M. Kerensky's recognition that Socialism has ueen a failure shows his greatness of mind. No observer of Russian affairs can fail to realise that any Socialisr: aspiring to rule the world must be different from the present Russian example. Socialists themselves are disillusioned. The correspondent heard a score of American Socialists say they were through with Socialism, and must have something more practical. The fears of a monarchy are nonsense, and a Republic is inevitable, thougu rumours of monarchic plots are persistent.
