Five Army corps for Defense
In Eastern Provinces

London, Sept. 1.-THE Russians
made their Victories heard in the wal
councils of the kaiser. Two important
results of this are announced. :
First, the kaiser has attempted the
invasion OF, Russia along the Vistuls
valley toward Warsaw by armored
trains, which are reported to have
been stopped and turned back by the
Russians near Vlozwawek, 20 miles
east Of the German border.
Second, for the general defense oil
his eastern provinces the kaiser Ia
drafting five army corps from his
forces in France, Belgium and west
ern Germany.
Military experts here say II is
gravely probable that the kaiser is
acting too late. For the Russian sue
cesses in Galicia and Poland, practl-
cally crushing the efficiency OF the
Austrian army, are said to have left
quite open the cars line Of march
for his army OF the center .,.
That army OF the center compris-
ing 500, 900 men, has been heard from
little in recent days. More than two
weeks ago It was said that 1t was
prepared to march in reBistless
strength against Posen and Berlin.
That report was premature at the
time, but 1t IL regarded as true now.
Austrian Armies Fail.
Ohicial dispatches say that the
main Austrian army in Galicia still
is retreating, pursued and harassed
by the Russians. Its only function
now is defensive The other import
ant Austrian army is still surrounded
near Lublin, and is fighting there for
It's existence.
Thus Austria, by the practical neu-
tralizatiDg of her two most Important
armies, is considered to have failed
completely In the military task as
signed to her under the general stra'
tegic plan as outlined by the Ger
man general stan. And, by the fall
ure Of her ally, Germany is forced to
undertake a great defensive plan
which at the outset OF the war was
not considered necessary. What Aus!
tria failed to do Germany must accom-
plish, or the fall Of Berlin will be GER
tain.
Calls on Germany for Aid.
At Lublin, while the surrounded
Austrians we're desperately striving
to free themselves, 1t Is reported that
one detachment Of about FIVE thousand
men did break through the line, only
to be surrounded. Documents were
found on some of the prisoners show.
ing that Austria has called upon Ger.
many for immediate help.
The news Of the German advance
TO Vlozwawek In armored trains
reached London by way OF PetrogradE
The train carried rapid.fire guns and
cannon, with which the city was
bon1barded until the Russians forced
the train to retire. The significance
Of this report Is taken to be that
German forces have at least checked
the Russians, who were reported TO
be in some force at Thorn, on the
VIstula. some DAYS ago.

cowardly.
The Hunters Pay the Bill.
OF the sum above referred to S44,,
654.G6 is of the fish and game fund.
Is that tax burden laid upon the
people by republicans? The point is
TO GUST republicans for unnecessary
increase of the taxes of the people.
This is not tax common to all. The
hunter pays the license of one dollar
If he wants to. 1t is a profit to the
state because all fines under the law
go to the school fund.
The last legislature provided for
Normal courses of study and training
in approved high schools and that
each such school should receive state
aid in the sum of $4,000. Under this
provision $4,000 have been expend.
ed. Would Mr.. Hamilton repeal this
law and stop the progress of educa-
tional advantages in Iowa?
Expenses Vary in Different Years.
The people want to know what
makes up these extra disbursements
and they are entitled to know. They
are entitled TO know all about their
public affairs and just what their
servants are doing. They know their
own business costs them more some
years than others. They know they
have unusual expenses some times
They know they must meet the grow.
ing demands of a developing business
and larger life among the people. II
Is just SO with the State. While in
every direction business is expanding
and the expenditures of business and
life increasing, the State is not stand
ing still. Ii simplycannot in this great
modern development of American
life. II must express the greatness
OF its people. II must express the hop.
es and ideals of its broad minded,
clear thinking men and women. Its
face must ever be toward the future
and ii must ever be inspired by a
great vision to be realized In the dis.
tant years. Iowa has been moving on.
Her people were never more prosper.
ous.. Never has she seen a brighter
day than the one that now blesses her
In her public affairs the outlook is
most inspiring. The long hoped for
improvement in our public schools
we are now entering upon with as
founding rapidly. The era of good
road building Is already here. The
health conditions of the people are
receiving constant and more earnest
and intelligent attention than ever
before. The hazards OF dangerous
