Liege Has Been Rebuilt Into a Model
Fortress.

Amsterdam, Nov 2S.-No better IL
lustration can be given G. the far
sightedness and thorougi ness Of the
German military machine than the
elaborate rebuilding operations IN
course Of completion at Llege. In the
comparatively short time since It's
forts were wrecked by the invaders
artillery, Liege has been rebuilt into
a model German fortress, and is to
oe used as an object lesson for stu
dents in the German military schools.
1t is built as though the Germans ex-
pect to stay.
All tie Belgian forts have been re-
paired, with a single exception; mucl
Of tie old artillery has been replaced
with Krupp fortress cannon OF the
latest type, and even the landscape
has been remodelled with view to
defense All the newest ideas of Ger
man and Austrian military experts
have been embodied in the placing of
ordinance, in the erection Of ramparts
in trenches, observation places, high
way mines, secondary batteries, and
block houses.
There is an intricate system of con-
Meeting works between tie various
main points of the outlying defenses.
Great attention has been paid to the
use of villages and forests for conceal
ing fortifications. The trenches are
flat with the ground so as to be Tlsl-
bic only from above, and are protect
ed with concealed bobwire entagle-
ments. The trenches are drained and
partially covered for protection against
rain and snow, while the width is am
pie enough to allow carriage of stores
and ammunition without interfering
with the troops
A considerable part of the hard la
Dor involved in completing the trench
es is done with military traction
trench digger" vi icn cuts a furrow
about three feet wide and three fee!
deep.
Most of the old Belgian forts have
been entirely remodeled; some have
been raised, some lowered, witt a
view to greater efficiency of shell fire
or to increasing tie sweep of country
which their guns can command. There
are several talse batteries cleverly
constructed to attract aeroplans or
cavalry attack
The town is dull and quiet. All
shops and cafes are required to close
at o'clock in the evening. Newspa-
pers are at a heavy premium

This matter is furnished in plate,

how many newspapers run by Chris
tian men will accept this offer and
run this stuff which is just as rot
ten as it can be- 1t is labeled Chris
tian, but if like all of Mr.. Russell's
stuff, it is utterly subverslve os the
Christian faith. If there is any lit
erature that passes through the mails
tnat is more dangerous than t:at
sent out by this so called pastor we
do not know where it can be found.
We do not want our list of subscrlb-
ers increased at such a fearful cost.
This newspaper will not send poison
into the homes Of the people into
which, is goes. 1t stands for what is
true and honest and of good report
and so repudiates Pastor Russell and
cis teaching and all like him.

500 automobiles and hundreds of
horse-drawn vehicles, including a
four-in- hand, with C. F. Lawton, of
Irvington, handling the reins.

newal of the track, More than 1000
names were added to the petition dur
ing the afternoon.

MOUTH Senatorial fight w. f. An
Grew is stamping the county and pre-
senting his principles as embodied
n his platform. He spoke Saturday
fternoon at Seaoright. Long Branch
md Atlantic Highlands.
At Seabright. he confined himself
10 the principle OF public office being
a public trust, and that the prestige
of public office should not be used
for private gain. He also spoke on
the necessity OF permanent improve
ments to prevent disaster similar to
that at Seabright last winter. He
also pledged his support to the Ocean
Boulevard.
At Long Branch he turned his guns
on State and county leaders. Ar
raigning them more severely for not.
at the annual county banquet at
Pleasure Bay, endorsing President
Wilson and his administration. Mr..
Andrew said he would like to ask
Senator Slocum why he was not a
candidate to succeed himself as sena-
tor. IL this was in his interest or the
interest of the county and State. Or
was 1t true that for some reason his
valuable services are to be recognized
by appointment as county judge to
IF / am elected, and such an ap-
pointment is presented to the Senate. !"
said Mr.. Andrew, 81 shall see that a
rigid investigation Is made before |
vote for confirmation Mr.. Andrew
asked what the causes for the stag
nation of business and property in
terests were. rs it not due largely to
our transportation, the withdrawal
of the Sandy Hook Route, and the
change in the schedule of the All Rail
Route months earlier than should be,
preventing the people from coming
and using houses, and driving those
away before they desire to go, on
account of these changes? Would 1t
not be well to send men to the Leg
islature that would look more after
the peoples INTEREST,""
In Red Bank Mr.. Andrew said that
If he was defeated, and Mr.. Ackerson
was defeated the other Democratic
candidate, and Mr., Applebee (Repub-
lican), elected, it would not be the
speakers fault. The blame would
rest on the shoulders of county lead
leaders. He added: Il also dare the
county leaders to defeat me in this
contest. If they do succeed ! shall
receive the defeat in good grace. In
this event l shall ask our Governor.
Mr.. Fielder to have embodied in his
annual message to the coming Legis-
lature, the principles embodied in my
platform. And falling this, | shall
declare myself as a candidate for an
office that will give me the great
privilege of stumpng every county
in our State, laying my platform be-
fore. the people"
