San Francisco, September 13.
The great turning point of the
western army yesterday came at
a time when both armies were
stubbornly fighting their way.
The German army had to yield
to the we'll provisioned and sup
piled army of the Allies The
slaughter of the r~etreating troops
is awful The condition of the
German troops lets them offer
little or no resistance and their
horses are exhausted The Eng
lish captured a large train of sup
plies, including ammunition, IS
cannons and a great number Of
prisoners. A German pontoon
bridge blown up by the Allies is
making the retreat of some divis-
ions impossible.
The Belgians r harassing
retreating columns of Germans
and in many places slaughtering
them.
The German press is silent on
all matters regarding the western
campaign.
1t is predicted that the German
army in France and Belgium will
be annihilated or captured.
Allies army in good condition.
The Japanese are landing
troops at Using Wan.
The German feet is reported
active in the Baltic sea, but seems
to accomplish nothing.
Great cannonading heard in the
North sea, but there are no de-
tails.
Austrian army is said to have
been completely crushed, some
$4,000 troops reported to have
been killed and captured; also
800 officers and 400 cannon.
Germany is trying to hold one
fort in Austria, but it is sur
rounded.

BED.

4 PLACE where nature finds repose.
~ Where man forgets both friendi
IA and foes.
4 Where slunber dries the eyes tina
weep
In the sweet mysteries of sleep.
No one would change a bed Of down
Or even straw for kingly crown
Sleep closes tight the gates OF care.
The poor man finds his palace there
Unconsciously while there it seems
We WOO the deity OF dreams
And wander far while taking rest
To the fair islands of the biest."
Ills there the iron of anguish yields
And fancy leads through fowery fields
Its pillows those of sweet content.
Forgetfulness with rest Is blent
There loosened are the captive's chains
The slave his Redo there regains.
And ever since the world began
A friend to every friendless man
A harbor where we anchor cast.
Cnmindful of grief's fiercest blast.
Where lost Is sense of fear and dread
In sweet inconsistencies In bed.

Asking County Commissioners to
Ascertain Sentiment Regard

In California's Panama
Exposition

war. the duration and result of which
cannot be foretold, is bringing about
a temporary curtailment of produc-
ton in our mining industry, and is
more or less affecting other indus
tries in the State. and
Whereas such war or its results
could not have been anticipated by
the Legislature at the time of the
passage of the Act providing for the
misrepresentation at the Panama
Pacific and Panama. California Ex-
positions. and
Whereas, reduced production in
the mines of Nevada. or storage of
products thereof. will cause a loss in
bullion-tax revenue, and
Whereas, it appears from the facts
and figures ascertainable from the
State Controllers Office and the Ne
vada Tax Commission that the
amount of revenue actually collected
under the assessed valuation of 1913
was only slightly above the amount
required for the running expenses
of the State. and of the amount to
be expended on the California Ex-
positions but SIS, 000i is at present ac-
tually available; the balance. there
fore, is still to be collected and can
be obtained only through a large in
crease in the assessed valuation of
the State for 1914. In addition to
the increased valuation that the Ex-
position appropriation will necessi-
tate, a further increased valuation
will be required to make up the pos
sible loss of revenue from bullion
taxes; now. therefore.
Be it resolved, that the Board of
Directors of the State of Nevada for
said Expositions hereby request each
County Commissioner of the 16 coun-
ties of the State to make inquiries
and advise this Board of the public
sentiment of his county upon whether
or not it is advisable to abandon Ne
vada's representation at said EXPOSE
tons. and Immediately discontinue
all expense in connection Herewith,
and
Be it further resolved, that said
County Commissioners are requested
to advise this Board of the senti-
ment of their counties upon this
matter on or before September Is.
1914, and
Be it further resolved. that the
County Commissioner of the several
counties of the State are hereby ad-
vised that the plans formulated by
this Board contemplate the expendi-
ture of about $50. 900 of the $l40. 600
made available by the Act of the
