! KAISER IS !.
IN POLAND
Takes Field to En-
courage Troops.
FIERCE BATTLE RACES
German Advance Has Apparent
y Been Checked.

London, Nov. 30-While deprecat-
ing the exaggerated reports of Rus
sian successes in the battle in north
ern Poland, where the German EN-.
peror has joined Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg to offer his advice and to
encourage his troops, the latest avail.
able official reports from Russian
headquarters say the advantage In
the fighting still lies with the Rus
sian army.
It is also officially said that enor-
nous losses have been inflicted on
the Germans, but no mention is made
OF the character of the German divi-
sion which has been so freely claimed
by the Petrograd correspondents Of
London and Paris papers.
Opposed to this is the German off,
cial report, which says that the Rus
sian attacks have been repulsed and
the German counter attacks have
been successful.
Some days must elapse before this
battle, which promises to prove the
most decisive of the war, is conclud-
ed. All that is definitely known is
that the German advance has been
brought to standstill. Some of the
German troops have been partly or
wholly surrounded, but they are still
fighting stubbornly to break their way
through the Russian lines, apparently
to the northward, where they hope to
join reinforcements sent from Thorn.
In the battle before Cracow the
Russians claim decisive success. Dur
ing the last week they took 10000 Aus
trian and German prisoners in this
region. This victory is taken in Pc
trograd to mean Cracow will not bar
the Russian advance in Silesia, to the
south, but that with the Austrian
army beaten it will be necessary only
to mask the fortress.
Russians Announce Successes.
The Russians likewise announce
success on the Austrian side of the
Carpathians and against the Turks in
the Caucasus, although in both re-
.g1ons the worst of weather has pre-
vailed.
In the western arena the Germans,
although making an occasional infan-
try attack, seem at present content to
lombard the allied positions, but with
somewhat lighter guns than they have
been using. This may mean either
that they are sending troops and artil-
lery to the east to use against the
Russians, or that they are preparing
a new attack against the allies.
That the enterprise that failed in
Flanders will not be repeated for the
present seems probable, as the allies
have been allowed to capture some
i points of vantage around Ypres, which
were previously considered necessary
to the German plans. There has been
minor attack near Arras, but not in
strong enough force to suggest the
Germans have tried to get to the coast
: by direct route from the east.
Field Marshal French, in an inter.
esting report, doubtless in response to
the demands Of the British public, tells
what the various units of the expedi.
tfonary force have been doing-those
: that failed and were cut off and those
; who, against superior numbers, held
the trenches for month. He gives
1t as his opinion that the German
losses have been thrice as great as
those Of the allies and speaks Opt.
unsteady Of the future.

ALLIES ASSUME OFFENSIVE

Situation Along the User and Around
Ypres Changes.
London, Nov. 30.-During the past
few days the situation along the User
and around Ypres has undergone a
very significant change. The often.
sive has passed from the kaiser's
army to the allies. When and how
the allies will make use of the new
situation cannot at present be stated,
but Joffre and French have a magnif.
cent mobile force at their disposal,
ready for the day when the Germans
will need some encouragement to
leave Belgian soil.

AMONG THE CANDIDATES

George F. Hansbrough of Black
foot, candidate for district Judge, is
proving himself as hard campaign
err as he is a worker in his private
life. He has visited nearly every
nook and corner of the district, COM
prising the counties of Custer, Bing-
ham and Lemhi. He, with his wife,
are this week visiting the people of
Lemhi county, their former home,
going overland in their Studebaker
car. From Lemhi Mr.. Hansbrough
will again visit Custer county, and
make friends with people whom he
did not come in contact with on his
former visit. If there is a voter in
the district who has not had the pri-
vilege of meeting Mr.. Hansbrough,
and getting his splendid views, as re-
CARDS the fulfillment of the duties of
this office, when election day rolls
around, it will not be Mr.. Hans
brough's fault. Naturally cordial,
Mr.. Hansbrough gains acquaintance
and friends easily and withal, i'm
presses the people whom he greets
with his fitness for the office. There
are six candidates for the position
he seeks and the Miner picks him
as an easy winner.-Mackay Miner.

TWIN FALLS EDITOR HERE

Mr.. and Mrs. Wilbur S. Hill, of
The Twin Falls Times, were in town
Friday morning on their way home
from trip to Trude,> in the Island
Park country. They went in their
car as far as Idaho Falls, and then
took the train.
In speaking of the political stu
alton, Mr. Hill said he thought
Haines was the strongest man in
Twin Falls, and thought the state
generally, though he had some mis-
giyings about Haines being the right
man for the place. Personally he
seemed to favor Lewis, but said he
had little doubt that Haines would
win.

SEEM TO KNOW HAINES

The Republicans of kootenal
county may be said to be unit IN
their support of Governor Haines for
denomination and reelection. HIS
record is fulfillment of the demands
of the people. No just ground exists
for criticism of his administration by
the Republicans of the state at the
September primary election. AT
least, this county can be counted
upon to give him a magnificent ma
iority. A second term to all officers
who have made good records IS IN
harmony with party precedent, and
Governor Haines is as certain to pc
beneficiary of that precedent as day
follows night.-Kottenai Republican.
In our opinion the two things that
made Governor Haines strong WITH
the people of Idaho are CD he has
given the problem of high taxes earn
est consideration, and insisted upon
full information being given the peo-
pie that they may reduce the taxes;
GU he has given his whole time and
attention to the office. During the
past eighteen months Governor
Haines has been on the job all of the
time.-Fremont County News.
o. H. Barber, ex-game warden IS
now in the north presumably working
against the denomination of Governor
Haines. About this time two years
ago he was here boosting for Haines
and 1t was anything to down John
T. Morrison, one Of the cleanest and
best men in Idaho. There Is one
thing certain, Berber's support of M
n. Lewis at this time will not aid

be better off without it.-Kooskia
Mountaineer.
The best evidence that Governor
Haines has made good as governor OF
Idaho is the collapse of all her booms
