The French Belgian Campaign.

The most important center of war ac-
tivity now is in the lighting field be-
tween Lille and Client. where a furious
effort is being made by the German
armies to break through the allied
lines in order to reach the channel
coast. The Germans have occupied
Client and Lille. and are advancing
northward and northwestward, being
opposed by an allied force of unknown
strength, reinforced by the Belgian
army lately escaped from Antwerp.
This movement of the Germans Is evil
IDENTIFY of twofold character, designed
both to establish coast holdings and to
cut off a portion of the allied force. II
the line opposing the Germans can be
broken somewhere west of Lille it
might be possible to corner a consider
able part of the French, English and
Belgians Unless the allies can stem
the German tide they will be in a diff
cult position, with the sea behind them,
the Germans in front of them and only
q narrow space westward out of which
to make their escape. But to conduct
this movement the Germans must ex-
tend their line. and perhaps weaken it
south Of Lille. The French official re-

District Judges.

The District Supreme Court is both
local and federal in its functions, and it
has been the practice for a. long period
to recognize this dual character in the
naming of judges in order to keep the
personnel of the bench equally divided
between appointees from the District
and the states. Recently vacancy
created by the retirement of Justice
Barnard, a local man, was filled by the
appointment of a New Jersey man. Now
another vacancy is about to occur
through the resignation Of Justice
Wright, who was appointed from Ohio.
1t is the hope and the expectation Of the
District that the balance will be main
tanned by the designation of Washing
tonian to fill this place.
The District Bar Association has at a
voted to urge that local men
be given equal consideration with others
in these nominations for the BENCH and
named a committee to carry this ex-
preston to the President and to place
before him a list of men regarded as
qualified for appointment. The equity,
Justice and wisdom of having on the
District bench a proper proportion of
loca, men cannot be questioned. Nor is
there room to deny the propriety, in
filling vacancies created by the retire.
ment or death of outside incumbents,
of selecting other outside appointees
who are familiar with the common law
procedure in vogue here. The bar asso-
cations action is well timed to bring
the matter before the President in an
effective manner, to prevent any possible
ignoring Of the fact that this court is
local as well as federal in character, and
that the peculiarities of the law in this
Jurisdiction call for particular considera-
tion of qualifications in the selecting of
judges.

ors by the unprecedented performance
of four straight victories. And this
achievement is deservedly popular, re-
gardless of league lines. 1t may, in
deed, be said that no such acclaim has
ever before been accorded to the win
ner of world title in base ball. and
the satisfaction of the admirers OF the
Boston Braves is increased by the
fact that the Athletics. already three
time winners of the championship
twice in succession-were before the
contests judged to be certain conquer
ors. These games illustrate the ira
ditional truth that there is nothing
certain in base ball.
They demonstrate, moreover, another
important fact, that the sport is to-
day ION the square" If proof was
needed that these annual interleague
games are honestly played the four
contests just concluded furnished it
irrefutably. The winning of the title
by a four-straight series reduced the
financial returns to the lowest possible
point. Owing to the limits of the
Philadelphia grounds the attendance
during the first: two days was lower
than last year and the larger crowds
possible in Boston did not bring the
aggregate up to the 1913 mark. Thus
from the "magnates'" point of view
there was incentive for the extension
of the series to include more games.
But the title: was won in the shortest
possible time. 1t might have been
easy, for the sake of an extension of
play and an increase of the receipts,
to "hippodrome" a little and prolong
the public interest, but this was not
done. In fact, the players themselves.
having no pecuniary interest in the
series beyond the fourth game, had no
incentive to stretch out the contest.
In every department of play the
Boston champions outclassed the Ath-
letics. They hit better than the re-
puted pitcher-pulyerizers Of the Phila-
delphia aggregation; they fielded even
more brilliantly than the famous hun
dred- thousand-dollar infield" and they
pitched better ball in every game.
They simply proved themselves, for
these four games at least, the su-
perior team, and they won their re-
markable victory strictly on merit.
They have set new pace in the ma
tional game.

weeks their ability to hold intrenched
positions almost Indefinitely. In the
first stage of the war they we're able

since then the French and English have

comparable to the first southwark
