Reports Of FIGHT Differ.

Reports differ as to the progress
of the great battle in northern France
between the allied British and French
armies and the Germans. Some indi-
cate that there is extremely heavy
fighting, while others tell of the great
masses of troops lying in flooded
trenches, many of them at the stage
of exhaustion.
At some points, at least, fierce en-
gagements been fought, with the
tide fowl in one direction and
then in ler. The allies have
won a pos ton acre, and the Germans
have gained one there. But all reports

is much fighting yet to be done before

by either side.

teresting points. Whether Mr.. He'll
yer will be able to secure a renewal
is problematical. He purchased the
place knowing it had no license, and,
therefore, would have no just
grounds upon which to base his ap-
plication. If anybody at all should
have a renewal, Mr.. Albrecht would
have been the man, as he had his
money in the place and originally
purchased it with license, but Mr..
Hellyer is taking a gamblers chance
in the case.
1t is a sad commentary that per-
son must sell liquor to debauch the
community in order to provide food
and lodging for people who pay for
it, and the early enforcement of eat
ing and drinking places would show
the fallacy of the argument. If the
hotelkeeper's view is correct, the
price of eating and lodging should
be higher; if incorrect, then the H.
cense should be abolished, because
no one has moral right to eat and
sleep at the expense of some poor
family whose moneys go for liquor.

The European War.

That there's strong sentiment IN the United States
against Germany and Austria IN connection with the
Fropean war cannot be Denied and every attempt upon
the part of German residents of this country to prove the
American view wrong will only intensity it.
No excuses, no explanations or hereafter will
ever Justify the movement of Austria and Germany IN the
ewes of bery-loving people throughout the world The
25 900 Germans who lost their lives at Liege Belgium
constitute 2 900 murders to the credit of Emperor William
of Germany and when the day Of reckoning comes if he
does not pay the penalty with his fe it will be be-
cause his conqueror too soft hearted to do with him
what he would do with them to gain his own ends.
For years Germany has been menance to the peace
Of Europe as we'll to that of the United States Away
hack at the battle of Manila Bay the Germans would have
turned their guns upon the Americans they had not lack
cd the bravery They possessed the element of eachery
all right but not the courage.
Germany has been satisfied with what she could
Law claim to peacefully but she has wanted the world IN
order that she might rule with harshness that would
have made Sioux Indian blush with shame. The nation
has gone stark ravng mad over the supremacy OF the
military and it is the last exponent virtually OF the
monarcha ideas that began to be discarded about the
time Columbus crossed the Atlantic.
Another reason that Germany is disiked by patriotic
Americans that many of her citizens emgrated to
this country have attempted to transplant the monarchal
IDEAS of the Kaiser Again and again they defy our laws
and there's no stronger opponents of law and order than
+ha Germans in this country when to the liquor
question

rest of the world is-which amounts
to about the same thing. 1t has be-
come necessary for the future of
civilization that Germany should be
licked, and licked completely. Moth
ing but the most crushing and
humiliating defeat in its present cam
paign of murder and piracy will
answer the purpose.
In it's treatment of other nations
and peoples Germany has outlived
every right to exist, independently,
and can only be classed as barbarous.
Compared with Mexico the latter
appears gentle and refined.
Every German on American soil
ought to condemn his native coun-
try or get out, because the anti
German feeling throughout the civil
lied world will be strong for many
years to come. 1t will take CEN
fury of civilization to blot out Ger
many's notorious actions in the
