Red Wing, Mimi, Sept. 29.-The

two decades, all other state Offices

Washington, Sept. 29.-An official
statement was issued by the French
embassy, drawing attention to the re-
marks of Representative Bartholdt at
the celebration OF German day in New

sertion that Frederick the Great sent
Baron Won Steuben to America. The
statement declared that Won Steuben
was sent from Paris to aid the Ameri-
can colonies, on French ship, and
that his passage was paid with French
money. 1t further asserted that Fred
erick the Great was not friendly to
the Americans and that he refused to
receive the emissary sent to him by
the colonies to ask for his support.

Iowa Senator's Hope Of Winning
Over Progressives Wrecked
by Former President.
TEDDY FLAYS I0WAN IN
HIS DES MONIES SPEECH
Secretary Bryan commends Maurice
Connolly az zone Who Has Support
ed the President Loyalty and Will
Make a Splendid Senator"

Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 80. 1914
Colonel Rooseveit's attack upon Sen
ator Cummins in his speech in this
city last Wednesday has taken the
heart out of Cummins' supporters.
They privately admit now there is no
chance to defeat Maurice Connolly, the
democratic nominee for senator
In his Coliseum speech here Colon.
ell Roosevelt appealed to progressives
to stand together against Cummins.
Ee compared Cummins to the op-
onents of Abraham Lincoln in Hi.
nois in 1858. Here in Iowa" he said,
the republicans who ask you to sup
port them on the ground that they
are near-progressives, occupy precise
ly the position which the supports of
Stephen A. Douglas occupied when he
ran against Abraham Lincoln"
He spoke of Cummins as trying to
appear to be a near-progressive and as
allied with Barnes and Penrose. He
said, II feel that we have right to
look to you OF Iowa for leadership and
that you should back the real progress
sives and not be put in the position Of
claiming to be near-progressives; in
the uncomfortable attitude Of endeav.
oring to be progressive enough not to
ALLEVIATE progressive support and at
the same time walk with sufficient
ly mincing gait to keep step with Mr.
Barnes and Mr.. Penrese."
Senator Cummins' only hope of cleo
ton lay in his ability to win over to
his support the $4,000 former repub-
leans who left their party in 1912
and voted for Judge Stevens, the pro-
gressive party candidate for governor.
The senator had no hope of winning
over the $4,000 republicans who voted
for Savage and against him in the
June primary. He knows they hate
him too intensely ever to support him
and that they will never forgive him
for the character of the fight he made
upon them in past years.
Colonel Roosevelt's appeal to the
members Of the progressive party to
vote against Cummins means that
Cummins must now abandon hope Of
their support, and with that, all hope
of election.
The DETECTION Of the progressives
from the republican party in 1912
nearly beat Clarke for governor his
majority over Dunn, democrat, having
been only 1899.
With the $4,000 anti-Cummins repub-
licans. who were for Clark in 1912 and
for Savage in the primary, voting, az
everybody recognizes they will vote,
against Cummins in November, it IL
obvious that the senator has no show
whatever of success.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute directly to
the occurrence Of capillary bronchitis
and pneum onia, use cough medicines
that contain iodine, morphine, heroin
and other sedatives when you have q
cough or cold. An expectorant like
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is what
is needed. That cleans out the culture
beds or breeding places for the germs
of pneumonia and other germ diseases.
That is why pneumonia never results
from q cold when Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is used. 1t has world wide
reputation for its cures. 1t contains
no morphine or other sedative. For

Secretary Of State Bryan, in letter
to democratic State Chairman Rey-
nolds last week. said that If he can
leave Washington during the campaign
he will make few speeches in Iowa.
Mr.. Bryan further says:
II write to ask you to express to the
democratic voters of Iowa the deep in.
terest which l feel in the election Of
Congressman Connolly to the senate.
He is a young man of unusual abil-
ity, with genuine interest in public
affairs, and is in sympathy with the
effort of the masses to secure justice
between man and man. He has made
an excellent record in congress ana
with this experience will, am sure,
make a splendid senator. He has sup

be Of still greater assistance in the
upper house.
Il write now in order that may rem.

says:
In the western theater Of the war
We still are fighting for the hamlet

Storm and cold have caused damage

In East Prussia the Russian cav

ALLIED ADVANCE FAILS
In Western Arena of War, Ac-
cording to BerIin's Version
of Affairs There.

LONDON, Dec. 30-The soldiers
of Emperor Nicholas still hold the
main German armies in check and
continue to press their advantages,
pcording to dispatches reaching here.
At the same time they are harrass-
ing the Austrians, who have been
thrust back over the Carpathians.
In the western arena Of the war
the allies continue to claim slow
progress but the offensive started
about the middle Of December has
noticeably slackened. fact which
Berlin, accepting the order issued by
General Joffre, the French command
ed In chief, on December II. as
bonafide, declares means the failure
of the attempted allied advance.
Even some of the British newspapers
call attention to the marked decrease
in the vigor of the French, British
and Belgian thursts at the German
lines. but they add that the reason
for this quiet soon will he disclosed.
The Bzrua river. to the west OF
Warsaw, has now become the User OF
the east. On its banks the Ger
mans have been sacrificing thousands
OF men as they did in Belgium on
the User.
The crossing which they forced at
great cost has now been nullified, ac-
cording to dispatches from Petro-
grad. the Russians having driven the
invaders back to the west bank OF
the river.

In the valley OF the Aisne and in

heavy artillery replied effectively. In
