GERMANS 20 MILES FROM PARIS

LONDON, Sept At has been made only too evident today that the advance of the Germans has not been a precaby checked notwithstanding the favorable reports sent yesterday and the invaders at point have reached within twenty miles of the outer Notifications Ot the French capital The advance has been evidently very per sStent and all the obstacles which the world was led to De
 eve existed their path have been overcome with appar ent ease by the German armies The details O the great battling which has been proceeding during the past day or two have not been given out but the advance Ot the Ger mans clearly shows that the allies have been again driven backward The allied armies will now probably occupy the lines of siege to the east and west Of Pars ana the greatest siege of the worlds history will probably be menced within twentyfOur hours. The mobility of the Germans simply extraordinary They seem to be aDie to advance as quickly as if they only on parade in sham battle The reports from the scene of war state however that the allies will be able to fall back on the capital without being demOrazed and that they are still intact as fighting force. Much will depend on the nature of the Notifications which the French have raised around the city Should they be strong enough the siege may be prolonged sufficiently to enable the Russians to advance into Germany and draw away the Germans for the defense of Berlin.

RUSSIAN VICTORY CONFIRMED

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The story of the Russian triumph in Gacia has been amply confirmed by the later dis patches arriving here In addition to the destruction Of six Austrian army corps in the battle of Lemberg there was simultaneous victory by the Russians near Tomas zow over the AuStranS who had invaded Russian Poland TOmaszOw is in Russian Poland itself and the victory there is expected to have the result of clearing Russian territory of the invaders These victories that the attempt of the AustranS to effect junction with the Ger forces from East Prussia has failed completely and that Galcia all practically in the hands of the Rus sian troops It is regarded here impossible to eXagger ate the importance of the trumphs. 1t is believed that the Russians will be able to concentrate for an Oen Sive movement towards Berlin and that the German armies are about to be confronted with the most terrible opposition of the It is fully recognized at last thar the Russians have been fully prepared for the conflict and that their armies have been raised to high state of e- ciency It is admitted that before reaching Berlin the Russians would have to reduce powerful fOrtreSSeS near the Russian frontier and these OrreSSes are proba bly, depended by the Germans to stay the advance of the invaders until Germany send powerful armies against them

SEWARD'S WAR CABINET
 AGAIN IN SESSION
Another Meeting of the Powers of
 Our Beloved Municipality

There was a meeting Of the city council last night There is meeting of the city council pretty nearly every night and they will probably have to continue holding meeting after meet ing before they can transact any bus mess. D. A. Quinn was given the contract for the building of the foun- dation, or something, of the school building. His price was $500. An other bid over $500 and yet another bid over $1 200.
 The piece de resistance of the meet ing came when a member of the coun- cil insisted on having placed on the records the statement by the mayor that he, the member, was drunk at the last meeting. He also insisted that his reply to the mayors accusa- tion should also be placed on the minutes.
 This was done and so at the read ing of the minutes next meeting the clerk will read out that the mayor ac- cused a colleague of being drunk and that the member called the mayor a "pin-head".
 The Gateway does not like to print this. For the fair name of our town this paper has suppressed many of the things said in meetings of the city council. If the Gateway only pub lished the verbatim accounts of the meetings-just only said what the councilmen said-it would disgrace poor old Seward. But now that the matter is placed on record the Gate way is forced to let vulgarity appear in its columns. You cannot hide that Big Four much as you might wish to.

MILITARY WILL TRY PRISONERS
MONTANA TAKES LEAF FROM THE BOOK OF RULES OF EU-
 ROPEAN AUTOGRAPHS

BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 9.-The mili- tary are now in full sway and have not only arrested several of the lead ing union men but will have them tried by a military court instead of " the civil courts.
 Among those arrested today was Alexander McLain, bodyguard of Muckie Mcdonald, president of the new miners union. Edward Evans and Joe Shannon were also two prom inent participants in the recent dis turbances who have been taken into custody. These two and four others who were arrested yesterday will be tried by military commission. In ad- dition to these seven leaders of the I. w. w. will also be tried by mili- tary courts.
 Strenuous objections are beinr made, naturally, by some of those at- cted against having the military try the cases. They assert that such a course is an admission of the fall ure of popular government and the beginning of a tyranny which would hardly be tolerated in Russia.

INDICTED FOR
 HIGH PRICES
THIRTY-TWO AMERICAN FIRMS MUST STAND TRIAL FOR
 OVER CHARGING

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Thirty- two indictments have been returned here by the federal grand jury against people who are charged with raising the prices of food stuffs arti- ficially. The grand jury made care ful and exhaustive investigation into the matter and received strong evil dence that the prices had been raised when there was no necessity for so doing by people who wished to use the excuse of the war to feather their nests.
 After having looked into the sub ject the administration came to the conclusion that the raising of prices was illegal and that the federal laws have provided against such practices. The trials are expected to be most re- markable and some of those indicted are said to be merchants of very high standing.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-President Wilson personal y addressed joint meeting of the houses of congress to- day and urged the passing of registration to raise one hundred millions of dollars year additional revenue through international taxation to meet the treasury de- felt caused by the great war. He made recOmmenda- tion as to how the taxes should be raised
 Immediately after the address of the president the ways and means committee of the house met to devise method by which the internal taxes could be in- creased Tke chances that the tax will be raSed en- in whose price would not have severe effect the masses of the people. That must be found to increase the taxation is very evident although the majority of the members Of congress opposed to any increase rather opposed to it before was clear y shown to them that it will be absolutely necessary

HOUSE DEBATES
 LEASING BILL
IMPORTANT ALASKA QUESTION Is NOW NEARING THE
 FINAL STAGE

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-The house last evening resumed the de- bate on the Alaska coal leasing bill and the important question is now, therefore, nearing its flnai stages. There has been a hope eX' pressed that the leasing of the coal fields might hasten railroad construc- tion work in the territory as the open ing of the coal lands would be prac- tically useless until the means of transporting the product is provided. It is generally assumed by those who are interested that the bill will go through the house without any diff culty.

CALL BRITISH TO THE FIGHT

LONDON Sept 4-Prime Minister Asquith opened great crusade in the guild hall today for the purpose of getting tremendous number of troops to continue the
 fight against Germany. He called every able-bOdied Briton of military age to to the help of the country in the hour of its need Nearly three hundred thousand Brshers have already responded to the call of the pre-
 ier and soon all Britain will be armed camp The fev- ersh agitation which has been started to raise troops shows that the need is indeed great but the British people are determined to fight to the end. The army sent to France is with the French falling back Paris and the British government feels the necessity for landing an other great force the continent to prevent possible the humliatoin of having the first army surrounded and captured in the French capital As this country has no law compelling it's citizens to the appeal is found necessary Lord Kitchener has called for the enlistment of every man who can bear arms
