REASON FOR LIGHT
 SOCIALIST VOTE

Editor Cordova Daily Times:-
 In a recent issue of your paper you ask What is the matter with the Socialist vote?
 We will admit that the expression at the ballot box recently indicates re- progression, however, such is not the case.
 A cursory investigation brings to light that in many instances no bal lots were displayed at the polls, all though they were mailed in ample time for the election. In some places they were buried out of sight by kind friends" working for the opposition, In some places the tickets were re- ceived after electiCn, by our represen- tatives, who indignantly ask for an ex- planation This was the case at Su- Shanna,, where our vote should have been proportionately large.
 In the Fairbanks district conditions developed there much the same as they do wherever our vote becomes a serious factor. Everything, or near ly everything, was done to break up tho movement, by many inside and outside of it, and it is safe to assume that those who voted as they would strike, did so because they could not be Induced to throw away their politi-
 cal power.
 Respectfully,
 | R E HEG NER

their artillery exchanged furious cannonadng with the strongly
placed German batteries.

These Incidents however, important only for their In

Military experts here of the opinion that the longer the
battle endues the better will be for the allied armies who will

they are needed along the front

fighting with both sides in strong positions on tor days
yet later side must find the continual fall OF
shells and the dsconceng infantry attacks too much for tn

With all the hard long fighting behind them the Germans are
again making attacks toward Verdu, while the Allies are making
frontal attacks on the German and more attempting

In the north transept, over the Jacristy

Among the priceless cathedral treas

century.

twelfth century. Saint-Jacques pos

church antiquity Of Rheims having
been collected in the cathedral.
Another church of great antiquity
and interest is That of Saint Remy b.
no mention Of its fate is made thus
far. 1t stands on the extreme eastern
edge OF the city, and was founded by
Clovis and Clotilda on the spot where
Clovis was baptized. The walls Of the
nave Of Saint-Remy's date from the
tenth century.
The Hotel de Willie, or City Hail, was

antiquities and good collection of

Aside from these notable monuments,

its old houses date from the twelfth
and thirteenth centuries, and here ana
