WILL EXTEND WELCOME "
TO SENATOR sMooT
ON HIS RETURN

Word reached Salt Lake from
Washington yesterday that Unitec
States Senator Reed Smoot expects
to leave the capital for Utah next
Saturday. He will be accompanied
by Mrs. Smoot. They will probably
reach Salt Lake early next week.
A movement is already on foot to
extend welcome to Senator and
Mrs. Smoot soon after their arrival
and number Of prominent Salt
Lakers, irrespective Of party anilia-
tions, have already indicated their
desire to do their share in expressing
in some manner to Senator Smoot
their appreciation and the apprecia'
ton of the people of the state for his
work in the United States Senate In
behalf of all interests In the state.
While plans have not yet been
completely formulated, 1t has been
suggested that public reception at
the Hotel Utah, at which all friends
of the senator, irrespective of their
party Affiliations, might be present
and extend personal welcome to
Senator and Mrs. Smoot, would be
suitable. 1t is the desire of those
who have backed the movement so
far to make the reception one in
which all citizens of the state, with
out regard to their party affiliations
might gladly join. recognizing the
fact that Senator Smoot represents
the whole State Of Utah in the SEN
ate, and that he knows no difference
between Democrat or Republican
when they have need of his help or
assistance in transacting business at
the national capital. 1t has been sug-
gested that a committee be formed
to take charge Of such a reception to
be composed of friends of Senator
Smoot, irrespective of how they vote.
and that the reception be made a
whole hearted welcome from citizens
OF the state at the home coming of
one OF the sons of the state of whom
they are most proud.

EFFECTS OF EUROPEAN WAR

ALLIES ARE DRIVEN
FROM LILLE AFTER
MUCH FIGHTING

Paris, Oct. 13-The. Germans have
captured Lille, about which there has
been furious fighting for the past two
weeks. This was admitted in the Of
fetal communique from the war Of
fee today. Roye also has been oc'
cupied by the Germans, whose coun
ter fianking movement against the
allies left wing is reported to be
gaining in strength until 1t threat
ems to sweep toward the coast.
This German advantage is counter
acted by the marked progress record
ed for the allies in the region between
Arras and Albert to the southwest Of
Lille.
Lille was evacuated yesterday by
detachment OF French territorials
and the German force is reported to
have numbered 10000 full corps.
They were the troops that had been
active In the vicinity of Lille, Seclin
Carvinan and Douai.
The French war Office reports ap-
reciable progress at several points
along the front. On the left the
French have resumed the offensive In
the region OF Hazebrouck and Beth
une against the cavalry and infantry
moving from the German line ex-
tending from Bailleul to La Basse
Estaires. In the fignting fur
Their toward the Franco Belgian bor-
der, the Fourth German cavalry corps
has been driven back to the north Of
the Lys toward Armentieps and two
other corps of the INVADERS have been
stopped in their advance between the
Lys and the La Basse canal.
Unusually severe fighting has mark
"a the engagements along the front
of the left wing OF the allies who,
after having been forced to give
ground toward the end of last week,
have now reoccupied their lost posi-
tons and are decli'ed to be more
strongly entrenched than ever. This |
will have important bearing on the |
attempt to beat back the German
raid on the sea coast as 1t will be |
upon this army of the allied front
that achievements will have to be
drawn from in sudden emergencies.

great endurance and fighting ability
of the native troops from India who
time in history in war against
white troops on European soil, have
astonished those against whom they
have been pitted as well as all the
allied commanders except the Brit
ish.
The only question which arose in
the British officers mind was wheth-
Of the Indian would be able to stand
against artillery fire, to which they
had never been subjected in the from
tier wars. This has been answered
in the affirmative. and they have
proved as steady under shrapnel fire
as the best of their white comraoes
in arms. Not only this, but the COM
manders of the allied armies aver
that they show dash and fearless
ness to remarkable degree and
have on many occasions displayed
great initiative under the most diff
icult circumstances.
The civilian population makes
much of them when the opportunity
arises. but their discipline is strict,
and this, added to the difficulties
of language, prevents any possibility
of their becoming spoiled. When
they are wounded or sick. however
the civilians pour showers of pres
ents on them in the way of warm
clothing. Delicacies for consumption
are not appreciated, for many of the
men are forbidden by the rules of
their caste to touch food prepared
or offered by a person of another
sect. Also they have no desire for
dainties. their simple "chaupatty"
or bread. which they bake themselves
in the field being all they want in
addition TO their ration Of goat flesh
or poultry and rice.
