The Scope of Tie Gospel VA:
the subject chosen by Rev 4. c
Parker for his address Monday
evening at the Main Street Christ
ian church He developed his
theme by saying that the gospel is
too often considered by persons to
be their views. and for them only,
whereas its scope embraces the
Whole human race, and extends to
every man in the world.
The gospel constitutes the whole
human heart, said Rev. Parker.
People generally think OF the COS

views and overlook that it is Gods
remedy for evil in human nature
me gospel is Adaptable to condi-
tons, but as man changes ii still
remains the great thing. 1t is to

men better. 1t applies to all and

Paris. Nov. 1.-The allied troops, ac-

In the vicinity of Newport and Dix

Nieuport-Dixmude line has rendered
the ground there so swampy that the
German trenches have become unin-

cent.
The Republicans are fighting for ev-
cry foot Of ground in the state. With
a three cornered fight among the Re-
publicans, Democrats and Progressives,
the result Of the contest is decidedly
uncertain.
Senatorial Uncertainty.
There is much uncertainty concern
ing the senatorial contest. Republi-
cans admit that the Curtis fight will
be one Of their hardest battles, with
the Capper fight equally uncertain.
A fight will be made, OF course, to
save both of these men. But with
the gains that Murdoch and Allen
have apparently made in the closing
weeks of the campaign. the fight for
both governor and United States SEN
ator is admittedly close AMI doubtful
1t Is probable that the Republicans
will lose at least one district-the
Eighth That district has been pre-
sided over since its creation by Victor
Murdoch. Now. in a bitter three
handed fight among Republicans.
Democrats and Progressives. it is
generally believed that the Democrats
have the better chance in the district
and that Judge A. w. Ayers of Wich-
tia will probably succeed Murdoch in
Washington.
Recover In Fifth.
In the Fifth district, however, the
Republicans apparently have a chance
to recover their lost ground. They
have earnest hopes Of defeating Con-
gresham Guy T. Helver3ng with the
election of w. A Caldefnead, former
dean OF the Kansas congressional del
egation. The fight. however. seems
close and both sides are claiming sue
cess.
Democrats insist they will retain
their hold in the Second, Fourth,
Sixth and Seventh districts, although
in the Cixth district. at leost, the fight
may be quite close. The Progressives
claim that they have q chance to win
in the Eighth and are making stub
born fight for C. L. Davidson of Wich-
tia. Both Democrats and Republic
cans are uncertain as to the complex
ion of the next legislature and the
candidates. OF the men who aspire to
sit in the lower house next winter have
received but little thought in the Bit
ter statewide campaign.
In the Judgment of some Of the
wisest observers. results OF the sena-
torial and 8ubernatorial contests will
not be known for several days.
