For an entire week the principal Ger
man attack in an effort to pierce the
allied lines was centered upon Ypres.

So serious does the Kaiser regard his
present situation, in view Of the pour
ing of Russian troops across his east
ern border. that he has held council
of war with his leading commanders,
according to report here.
Reports have been received indicating
a Withdrawal of German irst-line
troops from the west. These troops,
the reports declare. are being hurried
across Belgium. The soldiers declare

Secretary Of Agriculture Houston and
the department experts this afternoon
took up the question of saving the valu-
able herd Of cattle exhibited at the Ma
tional Dairy Show at Chicago. AL
though only a few cases Of the disease
have been found in that stock. and al
though every effort has been made to
keep the disease from spreading, it was
sad that other cattle had been af-
fected. The department pointed out to-
day that it had to make every effort to
save the stock there because of the
value to the country of the exhibits.
some of the bulls being priced as high
as $1,000 each.
High officials Of the department this
AFTERNOON refused to hazard a guess on
what effect the epidemic will have on
food prices. Charles J. Brand. chief of

Slight increase of the epidemic in
Pennsylvania was reported by depart
ment agents today. In Lancaster coun-

Fear Of spread Of the disease through
the railroad cars used between this

upon which, the Canadian order Of the
department was based. Despite the or

view OF the seriousness Of the situa-

Canadian quarantine was necessary as

new order, although its application
will be general and will extend to the

with calm act of heroism when he
voluntarily entombed himself for the

Soldiers home, knowing that he too,
in all human probability. will contract
the malady.
Curtenius destroyed every record OF
his former life save his honorable dis

ed through the Spanish-American war.

When the surgeon general of the
home pronounced Bennett leper, a
call was made for volunteers for the
position of nurse. 1t was explained
that it meant death, for it is almost
certain that in the years that must
pass before the patient dies, the nurse
will have contracted the disease.

FOREST PROJECT
QUESTION OF VALIDITY OF LAW
is RAISED IN ARGUMENT
IN SUPREME COURT.
ACTION is A FRIENDLY ONE
State Treasurer Declines to Pay Fun
Their Until His Rights and

in Highest Tribunal.

Madison. Wisconsin's forestry pro
ject hangs in the balance before the
supreme court. The constitutionality
of the forestry law, has been raised
as to whether forestry work is not an
internal improvement prohibited by
the constitution and the forestry land
contracts debts that exceed the limita-
ton Of 100000 fixed by the constitu.
ton. Under present plans the state
forestry reserve would ultimately com.
prise abous 100000 acres.
The state treasurer has declined to
make further payment until these
points are settled. The forestry de.
partment as represented by Atty-Gen.
Owen. The Questions at issue are;
~ Are the land contracts made
by the forestry department in the pur.
chase of land debts in violation OF the
constitution?
t2) Is the practice of forestry a
public purpose?
90 Is the entire forestry work as
internal improvement and as such pro
hibited by the constitutions
The suit is friendly one to test the
validity of the law and its purposes

Federal Judge Geiger Hands Down
Important Decision in Liquor
Selling Case.

Milwaukee.--In a ruling handed
down in the federal court, Judge Geig
er decided that an Indian not enrolled
on an Indian reservation, and who has
been denied enrolment by the secre
tary OF the interior, is not an indian
within the meaning of the statue.
This decision was given in the case
of number OF Shawano saloon keep
ers, charged with selling liquor TO al
Indian, the person in question beinl
Frank Lyons, a halfbreed. The Law
reads Indian" In treating of the sale
of liquor. and it was contended tina;
this would not aPply in the case of 8
person OF mixed blood
Judge Geiger in his decision de
clared that the United States Govern
ment had refused to enroll Lyons OF
to give him any right secured to Me
nomonie Indians by the Indian treaty
and having denied him enrolment te
the Menomonie tribe, must have re
fused to exercise any guardianship
over him, which is an essential ingred
lent OF the Office. Judge Geiger direct
ed the jury to bring in a verdict OF
not guilty.
This decision is tie first one relative
to the question involved. The decision
is sweeping in its nature, in that there
are over 100000 Indians on reserva.
tons throughout the country, thou.
sands of whom are not enrolled.
Testimony showed that Lyons had
always posed as citizen of the United
States and voted on numerous occa
sions.

Editor Ardmorcitc:
Every democrat in the state ought
10 endorse your editorial commencing
Attorney General West for his manly
defense of democratic principles and
policies. Whether We support him for
governor or not we ought TO have
party and state pride enough to com
mend him when he comes to the res
cue of our state and party, and de-
fouds our good name against the
ISLANDERS, which an unconscionablc
political syndicate is disseminating
al, over the union.
We ought all to have manhood and
fairness enough to stand by one of our
citizens when he is thus heroically
defending the good name of our party
and our state.
II democratic policies and princi-
pies as cxcmplihcd in the course of
the party in Oklahoma since state
hood. can not be defended then there
is no reason on earth why the party
should not step down and out and
give place TO another
There may be many things TO criti-
else, but the general tendencies of
the party, as shown in the laws en-.
acted and the measures favored,
should be considered, and if these
can not be defended by candidate
for the nomination of that party, he
ought to give place to some one who
viii defend them.
