GERMANS FALL BACK.
Campaign Plan In belgium said TO
lie u Failure.

LoNpoN, oct. 2l.-In spite OF the vlo-
lencc Of the German attacks it appears
to be true that the allies have made
great progress ia Belgium rs well as
in northern France. \ correspondent
OF the Ddiiy Mdu m a despatch from
Flushing says that the Germans have
been driven northward to within six
miles of Ostend and are now holding
Middlekerkc. Cannon have been
mounted near Ostend. Most of the
German wounded have been removed
from Bruprs.
The Stdr'S bordeaux corresponds NJ
described the operations az follows:
ION Tuesday the Germans made an
other great effort to burst the narrow
ing circle OF steel that * hemmiuG
them in. They tried vaiuly at no fewer
than six points To- discover weak
spot ON the allied front the main Of
fort being made at La Bas-ce.'
A Times correspondent in northern
Franc says the whole German plan
has beea disarrangod by the allied
strength on the German right. lie

The occupation at Ostend had little
strategic advantage. Dunkirk is
strongly fortified and an attempt 90
move on b. would he dangerous to the
Germans while Calais is well able to
look after Itself The lighting line daily
had undergone changes which were
totally undersigned"
In the opinion Of English and French
military critics the Germans are fight
ing to the limit of their energy and
there are signs that the difficulties
of the situation are too much for them
There rre repeated indications that
their soldiers are overdriven and are
losing the energy characteristic of
them in the first two months Of fight
ing. The allies. according to all re-
ports, are lighting with the greatest
ardor and determination. They have
steadily advanced toward Lille, bu,
have been hndcred greatly by the sc!-
entifically constructed German de-
fences, barbed wire acknowledgements
proving to be particularly troublesome

POLITICS AND THINGS

uIE wonder why SO much quiet
w ness, all Of sudden. in things
political. A few days ago politicians
and others were busy selecting cahci-
dates for this. that and the other
office, when all Of a sudden comes q
great stiffness. as IL all were walt
ing for the overture to be played by
the political band before the curtain
is raised on the continuous all-sum-
mer performance.
No one is deceived by the change
into believing that the coming polit-
ical campaign is going to be n tame
affair. There II an undercurrent Of
seriousness evident that Is assurance
that every candidate from governor
to justice of the peace will undergo
the most rigid scrutiny before he re-
ceives the favorable sanction Of the
mass Of the voters.
In local politics the one office
around which the greatest interes,
centers is that Of county Judge. Not
. great many years ago there was
greater importance attached to the
Office of sheriff or clerk. but senti.
ment has changed since that time
This may be due to the fractional
strife that has existed since tie pres.
.ent court went into office, but IL il
more probably caused by fear Of the
hundreds Of citizens and others al
over the county, who have invested
their savings in county warrants, anC
do not know whether they will evel
get their money or not. There seems
TO be . conviction that a change in thu
personnel OF the county court Is the
only rope of settlement OF the many
suits for the reputation Of warrants
There are very few. il any. taxpay
ers in the county who desire to see q
Reputation of the just debts OF the
county. but they all acknowledge thai
this Will happen IL the cases are
fought TO an issue In the courts.
About as far as a political discus
sion gets at the present time II the
query: 'Is Judge Worden going to
be d candidate again"
No one seems to be able TO answer
this question, and Judge Worden isn't
saying anything. 1t is probable that
the Judge is having as much trouble
and worry in solving this problem az
are the anxious voters.

Des Moines, Jan. 27.-Actual figures
on the total assessment Of the rail-
roads of Iowa for 1918, after all the
computations were made and certtfi-
Gates sent out in accordance with law,
show that the present executive coun-
Gil fixed the actual value CT the rail-
road property in Iowa at $500, $685. 500.
BY following the analogy as to pro-
po1tionate valuation of other prop
erty, as Indicated by the legislative ac-
ton ordering assessment Of bank stock
at only so per cent of its real value.
this means an actual estimate on the
selling price of Iowa railroads Of $780,
100000 and over.
This is more than twice the assessed
actual value Of Iowa railroad property
fifteen years ago.
The highest estimate, ever made By
any one on the value Of Iowa rallroau
property, based on valuation Of stocks
and bonds and their proportionate
share assigned to Iowa, was ABOUT this
last sum named.
The assessment of actual value for
1912 of Iowa railroads was 1853, 49,.
SIC; so that the actual increase made
last year at one jump was 500, S46.624.
Tax Boost Results.
These figures were all gwen, in sub
startially this form, ana fully eX-
planned and discussed last August
when the assessment was competed
and the facts first given out. II will
be recalled, Also that the attorneys
for the Northwestern rail. cad filed a
sharp protest with the executive coun-
Gil on the enormous increase of rail-
road valuations and threatened suit to
nave the valuation reduced as being
beyond what the law contemplates.
1t will be discovered, ii the figures
are gone into at all, that the increase
was on the larger railroads and there
were some slight decreases on the
smaller lines. such as the Crooked
Creek, the Colfax Northern and the
Muscatine North and South. But all
the big systems-the Burlington, the
Northwestern, the Great Western, the
Rock Island, the Illinois Central, and
the Milwaukee-received great in
crease in valuations and will pay cor
respondingly more taxes except where
the local taxing boards have reduced
ievies quite materially.
There have been some inquiries of
late at the state house ON these mat
'ters because Of publication in ire
,sponsible papers that railroad assess
ments and taxes have been reduced.
