Russians Forming New Line.

LONDON, Dec. 17.-The Russians are withdrawing the left wing of the Poland army from the Cracow reg ion and are falling back towards the Wisloka river. The campaign against Cracow has been dropped for the present while the Russians concen- trate their full strength against the German army operating in central Poland with the objective point the capture of Warsaw. The Russians will take up a new battle line back from the German frontier railroads and in their own territory where they can select the ground upon which to give battle to the kaiser's troops.
 Military Experts Praise Plans.
 The military experts here praise the Russian plan as the czar's left dare not advance until the battle in the center is decided, for fear of be- ing cut off by superior forces which could be easily concentrated by req son of the better railroad facilities of the Germans.

Autrians Not Seeking Peace.

Autrians Not Seeking Peace.
 PETROGRAD, Dec. 17.-The for eign office denies that the Austrian government has made overtures for a peace settlement between Austria and Russia. The reports are said to be without foundation.
 Russians Report Austrians Checked.
 The Austrians have been fol- lowing closely upon the Russians who have been recalled from advanced positions in the Carpathian noun tain passes. The Austrians, who were pressing hard upon the czar's troops, have been checked and have been driven back with heavy loss so that the retirement of the Russians to the new line to be held by the left wing is being conducted in an orderly manner.

THE ORGANIC SENSE.

We justly decry the notion of ex- tremists that society is an organism as a human body is. Few of us be- neve that the individual is as a cell merely and that the race is every thing. But our poetry, our science, our thought and feeling are permeat- ed with the organic sense-the sense of racial interdependence, with Ira cial" implying the human race.
 And surely our experiences and the facts of our lives bear out this con- sciousness. War brings 1t home to us most. How we accept civilization, an institution, a home, life that other lives save to us. But in the ways of peace we are no less depend ent. We touch button for light, when for all that most of us know of electricity we would have to make our own tallow dips. So overwhelm- ing is the debt that to pick one in- stance of it seems absurd.
 Is not this organic feeling the feel ing that a cathedral stirs, the feel ing that the destruction of cathe- dral saddens? Does it not condone our greater shock at the injury to the cathedral of Reims than at the in- juries of the defenders of Reims? Is not this organic sense in us patriot ism and is it not love of antiquity and desire to project ourselves into the future? .r

Anti-German Feeling In Turkey.
 ATHENS, Dec. 17.-A strong anti. German feeling is growing in Turkey. The people are opposed to the pres ent war, which seems to have been forced upon the Sultan by the Ger mans, who control the Young Turks party. Rioting in many parts of the Ottoman empire is reported and the German merchants have suffered very heavy losses as result.
 Turkish Port Bombarded.
 The British fleet today bombarded a number of Turkish ports on the Gulf of Saros The shore batteries replied but were silenced by the su- perior British gunmanship.

Mine Sinks Princess Olga.

SCARBOROUGH, Eng, Dec. IT, The steamer Princess Olga struck one of the mines which were sown by the German cruisers yesterday off this port. The ship sunk in twelve minutes. The crew were saved by the trawlers, which were trying to locate the mines. All steamship traf- fic along the coast has been held up until the mines can be picked up and destroyed.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER F, 1914.
THE NATIONAL DEFENSE MUST
 BE MoDERNIZED.

Is the United States making big guns for it's fleet, it's army, and it's coast Notifications? If not, why not?
 This question will be asked imper- atively by the people through their representatives at the present ses- sion of congress.
 An overwhelming majority of the people demand that the defenses of the country should be brought up to date. The opposition to this demand is so feeble as to be negligible.
 Congress already has mandate from the people for the work to be done. There is never any question as to how the people stand in regard to national defense.
 The nation has all the wealth re- quired to build up its defenses. It has the inventive genius necessary for the production of the biggest guns, the greatest battleships, the most eff fective airships, and armored auto mobiles, and all other accessories of self-defense.
 The money that would be used in preparing for the safety and security of the United States would be spent at home. Every dollar of it would go to American citizens for Ameri- can material and workmanship. The expenditure of the money would be beneficial to the country by furnish ing employment, utilizing raw mater ial, stimulating inventive genius, and helping to build up factories which would be indispensable in time of war.
 These are sunny days of peace, with no clouds on the horizon, no enemy in sight. Every day should be utiliz- ed in preparing the country against the days of tempest and war. Europe has just given us an object lesson which even fool could understand and interpret. No nation is exempt from the danger of war. The United States is threading it's way through tortuous channels in trying to main- tain friendly relations with battling nations. At any moment it may run into danger, and from danger into war. Old systems and conditions are being uprooted, and there is no as- surance that friendly ties will not snap under new and unforeseen stress. The only security is that which the country makes for itself and main +ains with it's own strong arm.
 The response given to Representa- tive Gardner's demand for informa- tion as to the state of the public de- fense is universal. The whole repub- lie is interested in knowing just what the government is doing and propos- ing to do in looking after the army, navy and coast defenses. Nothing will satisfy the people short of posi- tive knowledge that the government is actively at work modernizing the defenses and making them impreg- nable against any possible enemy Washington Post.

LONDON, Dec. 17-Three steamers were sunk in the North Sea today as a result of striking mines laid by the German cruisers yesterday when they bombarded the coast. The rules of warfare require that no floating mines shall be used by belligerents except they become useless within

Perhaps the clearest indlca-
ton of what may happen at the
next election is given by the re-
cent primaries at Gary and lndi-
ana Harbor, Ind, great indus
trial centers. The Progressives
carried both of these steel towns
in 1912. By reason of the mills
being forced to close down or
operate only part time, thous-
ands of men have been laid of.
These cities may be taken as
typical industrial centers. In
the recent primary the Repub-
licans received 90 per cent OF
the vote in Gary, the Democrats
Z per cent, and the Progressives
3 per cent. IN Indiana Harbor
the Republicans received 81 per
cent. of the vote, the Democrats
& per cent. and the progreSsives
2 per cent.
The above figures clearly indi'
cate that a great majority OF
those who supported Mr.. Roose-
velt in 1912 are again With the
Republican party, the greatest
aud most truly progressive party
ever organized, whose history is
the history of the country for
more than half u century. The
sel6shness of few leaders has
alone prevented complete
amalgamation. But the people
will set aside these self-constl-
tuted leaders when they realize
that a continuation of this divis-
ION can only result in perpetual
ing the Democratic party in
power and continuing in force
those policies which have time
and again proven disastrous to
the American people.
