Fetrograd, Oct iva London. -
Russian observers of the campaign
along the prussian frontier express
the opinion today that the Germans
who were driven hack during the
fighting Of the last three days are
now concentrating their forces in
three defensive positions to the west
and northwest OF Suwalkd In Il des-
perate effort to protect Marggrahowa,
an important railroad center fifteen
miles north of Lyck, which commands
lines of communication IN all dircc-
tions and the loss Of which would, il
is argued here. preclude further Ger
man activity in this region.
German Retreat Continues.
In spite Of the difficulty Of attack
on account of the chain of lakes and
the wretched roads the Russian as
saults have, according TO Petrograd
newspapers, shaken the German re-
sistance at this important point. The
enemy, in a movement amounting to
retreat. has withdrawn its siege
guns and other artillery from Baka-
larzevo. almost as far as Marggra-
bowa. (Bakalarzcwo is ten miles
northeast Of Marggrahowa and fifteen
miles west Of SuwallN)
The military expert Of the. Novoe
Vreyma said that in this move the
Germans have lost their last trump
in the game along the east Prussian
frontier.
The capture Of Austrian entrench-
ments al przemysl is REGARDED here
as the most important step up to the
present time in the series Of actions
in this vicinity to which alternate
bombardments and gradually adj
vances along series of fortified
trenches have given the character Of
a regular siege.
There is no confirmation here up
to the present time OF reports of the
commencement Of the expected tre-
mendous battle In Poland.

GOOD ROADS,
The Voters of Henderson
derson County will Vote
on Proposition to Issue
Good Roads Bonds at
the August Election.

ltseems to be generally known
that at April term ofthe Quar-.
terly court of Henderson county,
the court voted to submit to the
people the proposition to issue
county bonds to the amount of
$3.50, 600 for the purpose Of con.
structihg good roads in the coun.
ty. The first thing necessary to
be done was to secure the right
to proceed in the direction of in.
augurating q system of good
roads in the county under a com
paratively new Act of the Legis
lature. The next move will be
to pass on the question of issu.
ing the bonds and the people
will have that privilege on the
date Of the regular August elec.
tioe, the 9th day Of the month.
We have not been informed
the exatt plan to be pursued
in giving the county good sys.
tenn of roads, but if the people
will vote for the issuance of
good roads bonds, it will be ia.
ken for granted that the court
will proceed in Whatever way
may appear best in the matter.
The crying needs for roads in
the county needs no argument
and surely the progressive ele.
ment in the county will not miss
the opportunity to put Hender-
son in her rightful placey among
the counties in West Tennessee.
Some men who own property
and some who do not will at.
tempt to put up argument
against the issuance of bonds,
but progressive citizens. know
that thereis no argument against
the investment necessary to get
Henderson county out of the
muddy ruts in which she has so
long floundered-ever the rough
hills which have broken down
stock and vehicles, the price of
which, if made known, would
astonish even those who may
vote to continue such conditions
merely through fear of, increas-
ed taxation. Talk to your neigh.
bors about the good roads propo-
sitioh, let your county pride
come to your help and on the
Sixth day ,,f August let us show
to the world that Henderson
county is Voluntarily progressive
in the good roads movement.

Making No Protest.


1t was given out at the latter
part of last week that President
Wilson would make. a personal
appointment of Mrs. E. W. Car
mack as postuistress at Colum-
bia:
Notwithstanding all rumors
and tales to the contrary, Sena-
tor Lea has done all 10 his pow.
er to have Mrs. E. W. Carmack
made postmistress at Columbia.
In December, 1912, when it
seemed that Postmaster jackson
would be ousted by the civil SER
vice, Senator Lea wired Mrs.
OarmacR asking if she would al
low her name presented to the
President and on the 5th of
March, 1914, Senator Lea wrote
the President asking the with
dfawal of McKannon's name. 1t
is generally known that Mr.. Nc.
Kennon was finally nominated
for the place. through the influ-
ence Of Congressman Padgett
aud that McKennon resigned the
position. We have long been in

Has LARGE FOLLOWING.
; Without attempting to trace
the motive of all or apy part Of
the large following of Judge
Williams, embracing as it does
men of all political affiliations ,
it is apparent that his strength
is due first to the fact that he is
a strong Judge and a clean man
and is therefore entitled to the
only reward for which a good
and honest judge can hope, that
is, the endorsement Of his peo.
Pile. Second, because Of the
principle established il 1910,
that the court shall not be in
volved1in the factional political
game and that Judicial places
shall not be used by political
bosses or leaders as a means Of
reward or punishment; in short,
that the selection Of judges shall
be made independent Of the u.s.
ually demoralizing political tight
over the selection Of other offices.
Mr.. Hill refers to the constitu-
tion TO show that judges shall
not be elected BY popnlKr vote.
There can be no controversy over.
