RAMsrEDT DENIES REPORT.

Democratic papers continue to pub
lish exaggerated figures claimed to be
the amount Of the Allen shortage, IN
spite Of the fact that A. P. Ramstedt,
who Is in charge of the treasurers Of
fee, has publicly stated that they are
false and that the total amount Is
saa.112.03.
I'VE have found no more deprcda :
tions,'' said A. P. Ramstedt. acting
treasurer and representative of Gov
ernor Haines in the investigation OF
the state treasurer's Office. "rhc re-
port that the total has now reached
$150.000 Is entirely erroneous Obv1'
ouslv It was obtained by adding tne
original s93 1000 deficit to the amount
mentioned In the last charge placee
against Mr.. Coleman. This. however
was included In the $93,00."

WHY CHANGE, THEM
rhe Press Times Of last Tuesday

The Press Times of last Tuesday
says:
"For years Shoshone county's dele
cation in the Idaho state Legislature
has had to stand like the rock OF
Gibraltar against the jealous assaults
against the mining industry Of this
state made by the representatives
from farming communities"
Could there be a better tribute paid
tn the republican party Of this county!
During the period referred to the rep
resetnatives in the legislature from
this county have been republicans
Why not keep them there since they

THESE THREE.

Candidates on the democratic coun-
ty ticket are beginning to feel that
they are being double crossed by the
Days First of all the Days want to
beat Sheriff McCabe for personal rea-
sons and are willing to sacrifice any
other candidate except treasurer or
commissioner from the first district to
that end. They want to elect the
treasurer for the benefit that will ac-
crue to the Day bank, and they want
the commissioner from the first dis
trict retained because he is trust
ed employe of the Federal company
and is in position to serve the Day In
terests. Here is food for thought fo'
the taxpayers Of the county.

has been taken without encourage
ment from the Days. but who now
pose as the leaders in every improve
ment for the benefit of the people.
But suppose they had been the un-
selfish patriots described In the Press
Times, suppose they had done all
these things for the benefit Of the dis
trict which they enumerate with sucn
becoming modesty, what does the en-
tire list amount to as compared witf
what the district has done for them
Has it not done enough without re-
quiring the people to surrender theil
industrial and political rights to those
who have grown rich and power1u
from its bountiful resources?

FEW OF CANDIDATES
WORKING THEIR BEST

December l.: Will soon be here.
Many have signifled their intentions
OF doing most of their work in the
big campaign before that time. but
few have started the race In earnest.
There will be cause for regret by
many after the big reduction of votes
to follow the closing of the first
period Will you be In the class who
will say Il am glad l turned in most
of my subscriptions during the first
period" or In the class to say. Il
wish l had?'
Never again during the campaign
will subscriptions count as many votes
as during the period to close Decsm-
Der IT, This period will positively
not be extended, nor will better offer
OF votes be made. and the importan,
feature about 1t is that the votes can
didates receive during the first period
will not be published or known by any
competitor.
Up to the present time the average
amount Of money OF subscriptions
turned IN. by candidates who are in
i,ne race would not equal 81 per can
didare. This is indicative that the
first period Of the campaign viii not
be taken advantage OF by many cam
didates.
There are. however, twenty-five
who will share in tho
twenty-five awards 10 be made after

the campaign closes regardless ef- the
amount of subscriptions received by
The Nirginian.
Some nave given up the race in
despair. Others claim subscriptions
are mighty hard to get Other claim
it will take too much TO win; but few
have taken everything into considera-
ton governing the condition. OF finan-
cial affairs at the present time and the
fact that the prizes will be awarded
regardless Of VOW few or how many
subscriptions the winners vii, have IN
their credit after the campaign closes
Some make the claim that they
have but little chance with the larger
towns Included in their districts. Few
have taken into consideration that tho
larger towns have newspapers of their
own and that III past ca mpaigns con-
Quoted by The Virginian II was always
the smaller towns TO win the best
prizes.
The campaign has not yet really
started In earnest. 1t IS possible for
any person regardless Of residence to
start in the race and with "A few hours
OF effort secure enough subscriptions
to place them far ahead Of any can

SECOND ARRAS FIGHT
APPEARS lMNllNENT

Paris, Nov. 29.--It seems likely,
from an official announcement today.
that the Germans have begun the pre-
iiminarv diminishing OF what will
develop into another great battle near
Arras Yesterday. when the fighting
all along the hattie line was more
general aud violent than for many
DAYS past, the Germans tested the
ailies' line north of Arras with ar
attack by three regiments. 1t Is OF
ticialiy stated that the attack failed.
The Germans are believed to haya
rnassed fourteen army corps In the
region just east of Arras, with this
intention of concentrating In that
region It Is practically certain thAs
they have abandoned their main en-
deavor from Ypres to Armentieres,
and will attempt TO hew through
further south II appears that they
felt ont the allies strength with
about 1000 men. Il is expected hero
that there will be news within d day
or two of a more general and violent
attack.
There was a luil today after the
very lively artillery and infantry eA-3
gage ments which occurred yesterday
from the North Sea To Atsace. OF
today's situation the official statements
Is as follows:

with any more success than previously.

The Russian war office announces
that the development of Il. battles in
Poland is favorable to the Russian
arms, but ands IL necessary to warn
the public against accepting mere ru-
mors uf an overwhelming victory.
Berlin and Petrograd now agree
that the fighting continues with no
decisive result achieved by either
Marshal Won Hindenburg or the Grand
Duke Nicholas. The Russian official
statement says that the Germans have
been compelled to retire from some
positions. having suffered enormous
losses, but are maintaining a stubborn
resistance
The German official announcement
is that the situation is unchanged,
that Russian advances near Iaodz were
checked. and that German troops
made successful counter-attacks.
Newspape correspondents In Pet
rograd report that the great battle In
Poland Is O. see saw. which produces
alternate joy and depression In the
Russian CAPITAL. The tone of their
dispatches has moderated, presumably
at a hint from the Russian govern
ment.
There was calm along the battle
front in Belgium and France today.
Berlin finds nothing of consequences
to report on the situation existing
Yesterday but asserted that attacks
made by the French on Saturday In
the region Of Tpres and west OF Lens
were unsuccessful.
