Republican candidates, then the voter should have
marked a cross in the square in front of the names of
Mason, Harris and Brown.
Error No. 2-Some count a ballot marked as
above as one vote for Mason and no vote for any other
candidate. This is an error, as a voter cannot cast a
single vote for a legislative candidate.
CORRECT WAY TO COUNT VOTES
FOR H LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATE ON
BALLOT MARKED AS ABOVE IS TO COUNT
THREE VOTES FOR MASON. No other legisla-
tive candidate received any votes on the above ballot,
and all three votes should be tailed for Mason.
The law specifically states that a cross in the
square in the front of the name of one candidate for
the legislature casts three votes for such candidate.
If the voter has marked a cross in the square in
front of Browns name and also a cross in the square
in front of Mason's name, then it would count a vote
and a half each for Mason and Brown.
The cross in the party circle, without a cross in
the square in front of Mason's name or in front of any
other candidates name for the Legislature, would give
Brown and Harris a vote and a half each.

Suits Aggregating 100000 Pending
Against Saloons in Lake County

The Waukegan Daily Gazette of recent date. says
that twenty proprietors of saloons and several owners
of buildings in which bars are operated are defendants
in suits aggregating $4,000 in Lake county.
These cases are brought under the dramshop act
in behalf of women and children who have been made
to suffer through the sale of liquor to those upon whom
they are dependent.
Let other counties throughout the state follow the
good example set by Lake county. Make use of the
d~ramshop law. Let the saloonkeeper know that he is
selling liquor at his peril and if he brings woe and
suffering upon a family, he is subject to damages.

Expects 249 Murders in Chicago
This Year

Thirty-two persons were murdered in Chicago III
August, says Coroner Peter NJ. Hoffman. The records
of his office show this to be a fact, and he figures that
unless something upsets his calculations 249 will have
been murdered in Cook county by the end of the year
1914.
He bases his reckoning on the percentage Of in
crease in homicide during the last ten years, at which
time there have been 1871 Sayings. The records for
last year show there were twenty-three murders COM
mitted in August and for the entire year the records
showed a total of 233 h%omicides.
1t is a fact that a large percentage of these 24o
murders in the city of Chicago this year are commit
ted because of alcohol. Chicago has over 1000 dis
tributing agencies for alcohol,
AS a Safety First measure. would it not be the
part of wisdom to close these distributing agencies?

Sixty-Six Insane Patients a Week
From Cook County

A Chicago daily paper of October 7 quotes Sheriff
Michael thinner as saying that insanity has increased
in Cook county 90 per cent in the past three years.
He made this statement in an address before the
Cook County Real Estate Board at its luncheon at the
Hotel Sherman.
He said that ~sixty-six patients a week have been
sent to insane asylums in the past four months from
Cook county.
The close relationship between alcoholism and in
sanity is here seen. Cook county has almost 5000 sa-
looms within it's boundaries.
Eighty-seven counties in the Prohibition state OF
Kansas have no insane.

invasion OF Alsace and Lorraine Re.
garded as Grave MenaceParis
Announces Success in Flanders.


London.-The French are fighting
their way toward Metz in Lorraine
and Strassburg in Alsace. Paris ex-
poets that the column in Lorraine
will cut the German communications
between Metz and st. Mihiel and
that Muehausen and Altkirch will
soon fall to the invaders.
The official reports Of the fighting
in Flanders and Artois confirm the
unofficial reports that the Allies have
taken the offensive and are attacking
hard. The French and British in
Flanders and France drove the Ger
mans from trenches and villages they
had held for many weeks. A gale
Of sleet and snow is sweeping over
the northern area.
Berlin admits officially that the Al
lies continue the offensive both at the
east and west, but asserts that the
Germans maintained successful de-
fence in Flanders, in northern France,
in the Argonne and south of Metz.
Paris confirms what has been
known for weeks in military circles,
that the Germans have lost their
early superiority in heavy field ar
tillery and that the Allies have now
more powerful and more numerous
guns than the invaders The sig
nifcance Of the news from the French
point Of view is that the Allies have
the metal to stop any German ad-
vance and to support an offensive Of
their own.

are truggling with the Russians
IN Belgium the Allies are now VIZ

match from Amsterdam says heaVy
firing was heard along the coast, m
dicating that the warships Of the Al
lies were again bombarding the Ger
man positions.
The Sluis correspondent Of the An
sterdam HandeIsblad says that the
Germans delivered violent attacks on
the trenches recently captured by the
AIlies but we're repulsed. He adds
that the Allies have made marked
progress in the neighborhood Of
Langemarck, sonnebeke, and Blk
schoote. The Germans are at a dis
advantage because they have been
Obliged to substitute light guns toI
heavy ones, the Hoods making the use
Of the latter impracticabie.
III Northern France, particularly IN
the neighborhood Of La Bassee, where
the Germans hold very strong posi-
ton, the Allies are beginning with 2
heavy cannonade to feel their way
eastward.
The same process is being followed
along the whole front, and the French
Official bulletin spoke Of "the superi'
ority Of our offensive and the
marked advantage" of the French
artillery over that of the Germans.
The advance in the northwest, little
as it is, has removed for the present
at least, according to many, the Ger
man menace to the coast ports.
They believe that so long as the
Germans are compelled to keep up the
strength OF their army in the east they
will be unable to assume the offensive
in the west.
There is vague report, however
that the Germans have kept the pick
Of their western army in the Aisne
Valley, whence at an opportune mo
ment they can hurl it against the
French lines and make another etfori
to get through to Paris.

FRENCH WIN DUELs WITH BIG
GUNS.


London. ION to Warsaw IS again
the slogan Of the Kaiser's troops IN
the desperate campaign in Russian
Poland.
A big step toward the Polish capital
has been taken in the capture OF LODI,
as officially announced by Berlin. In
addition to the capture Of Lodz, un-
official Russian advices indicate that
the Germans are making notable
advance along the entire line in Cen
tral Poland. These Petrograd dis
patches say that fighting has taken
place near How and north Of Lodz and
at Piotrkow to the south. This would
indicate that the Germans have gained
almost thirty miles on both tanks be-
tween the VistuIa and the WARTIME
Rivers.
Germany has repaired her terrible
losses between the Warthe and the
vistula, has withdrawn battered ar
mics from the very jaws of the Rus
sian trap, has hurried vast reinforce
ments from East Prussia, Posen, 81
Iesia, and even from Belgium and
France, has solidifed a battle line
which stretches from Mlaya, on the
frontier Of East Prussia and Poland,
to Cracow, and is ready and deter
mined to brave the terrors OF winter
and the superior numbers of the Rus
SLAMS in third endeavor to seize War
saw and the whole Vistula line, south
ward to sandomierz.
From a battlefront Of 200 miles, in
which there are few gaps that are not
amply protected by nature, the Ger
mans are poised for the new attack.
From resources of men and munitions,
seemingly inexhaustible, Germany is
ready and, in the center, the onward
movement has already begun. Rus
sia has no fewer than 8 100000 sol
diers to meet the onslaught on fields
of battle chosen, not by the Germans
but by commandments who has
proved himself a master Of strategy,
the Grand Duke Nicholas.
Some points Of advantage that Ger
many has are her system Of railways
that touch the Russian frontier from
Wirballen to Cracow and which enable
her rapidly to transfer large forces
from one threatened or weak point to
another; a commandments, Mar
shal Won Hindenburg, who has proved
himself to be the ablest, probably, Of
modern commanders, and the assist
ance OF a considerable force Of Aus
trians who are massed between Czen-
stachowa and Craeow.
