said. I'VE do not seek, nor should we
permit ourselves, to be either appointed
or elected to public ONCE merely because

that as loyal citizens Of the United

the government, we are ready and
willing to appear before the electors
of our various counties, cities and

CONTINUES To PROBE
HUSH MONEY CHARGES
Mr.. Hawken Has Police Officers and
Women Up for Exami-
nation.

Several police officers, including a
captain, and a number of women, one
of whom was at one time proprtetress
of a house in Washfngtons former red
light district, were questioned today by
Assistant United States Attorney S. Nc
Comas Hawken in connection with the
charges that certain high police Off
GERS accepted hush money" from
habitues of the section and otherwise
profted corruptly.
Mr.. Hawken still refuses to divulge
any facts learned from the witnesses
he has examined, but it is understood
that he has gradually woven a network
of suspicious circumstances about GER
tain officers, but whether there is any
actual criminality involved has not yet
developed. Direct accusations have
been made against certain so-called
"higher-ups," but Mr.. Hawken wants
substantiating evidence before taking
definite action.
Accompanied by Attorney.
The former proprietress was accom-
panied to the district attorneys office
by her attorney and she was ques-
toned in his presence. She was sum-
moned under what Is called John Doe''
proceedings and 1t was by way Of cour-
tesy that her counsel. was permitted to
be present while she was examined.
While Mr. Hawken would make no COM
ments. it Is understood that the woman
denied that she had ever given any
members of the police department any
money or had otherwise corruptly dealt
with policemen or their superiors How
ever. it rs believed that she shed some
light on the ethics and conditions in the
old division" that will prove valuable to
the government prosecutors.
It is not expected that the investi-
cation being conducted by the United
States attorneys Office will finish this
week. as hoped by Mr.. Hawken and
Maj. Pullman, superintendent Of po-
lice, earlier in the week. The rami-
fications of the inquiry into accusations
involving the late redlight district are
such. it was stated today, that the
probe will go deeper than was orig
inally expected, as the prosecutors and
Maj. Pullman are anxious to dispel cur
rent gossip about possible corruption
or bring the guilty ones to justice If

Landing Well Planned.
Allies Plan Great Effort.

Recent cable dispatches have indi-
Gated that the French and British have
determined upon great attempt to
capture the Dardanelles as speedily
as possible. London reports say that
this is being done for double pur-
pose-to influence the wavering Balkan
states with a show of force and. If pos
sible, to assist hard-pressed Russia by
forwarding to her supplies through
the straits.
August this effort was inaugurated
with the landing Of British troops near
the Bay of Suvla, to reinforce which
the new landing party apparently has
been sent. Enver Pasha, Turkish min
lister of war, told the Associated Press
about $4,000 troops had been landed
according to information reaching him,
but a wireless dispatch from Berlin
later said that the landing operations
were relatively unimportant." =.

J. j. Keppler, vice president Of the
organization, who led the recent strike
in the. plant of the Remington Arms
Company at Bridgeport, had urged a
national strike for improved condi-
tons for the workers in view of the
profits to manufacturers from large
war oxders. Today he submitted his
ideas to the executive board and found
the ma jority favored a campaign for
better conditions with a strike as the
last resort.

London Declares That All Positions
Won in Past Week Have Been
Consolidated.

LONDON. August 10. - Additional
troops have been landed by the British
at Suvla bay. Gallipoli peninsula. This
announcement was made here officially
this afternoon.
The war office admits that after heavy
lighting, in which no satisfactory prog
ress was made, the British advance was
halted. Losses on both sides were very
large
Text Of the Statement.
The text of the statement follows:
THE recent operations on the CAL
lipoli peninsula consisted of attacks on
the enemy's positions along the south
ern and Anzac lines. and included the
fresh landing of strong force at Suyla
bay.
There Is evidence from prisoners
statements that the Turks had been
considera bly, reinforced, with view to
heavy attacks on US. and that ours
foreStalled the enemys by about TWEEN
ty-four hours Consequently the fight
ing was very severe and on both sides
the casualties were very high
Landing Well Planned.
The landing at Suvla bay was we'll
planned and carried out by the navy,
but, in spite of the fact that the Turks
developed their greatest strength in
the Anzac region, our troops from
Suvla could not make very satisfactory
progress before the enemy was able to
move up considerable forces from his
reserves and bring our further advance
at this point to a standstill.
Within the past week the positions
won have been consolidated at all
points. The spirit of the troops is ex-

The Livable Town.

Why are so MANY country towns 60
ing backward? During the past 10
years $50 towns in middle western
state have decreased in population.
The rural districts of another have
lost 1870, 900 people. Practically every
other middle western state has suffered
in the same way, and it is believed
that shortly every state east of the
Rock mountains will face this condi-
ton. At the same time every large
city in these states has shown a re-
lnarkable growth in population. This
indicates that the young people of the
rural districts and small towns are dis
satisfied with conditions, and gravitate
to the larger towns because of the
pleasures and better living conditions
they hope to find there. Until we
make our small towns attractive we
cannot hope to hold the young people.
There must be amusements for them.
We must stop the continual nagging,
the DdSStRG U boAiON laws Tile con-
slant fretting of the older people who
see in the pleasures of youth eternal
damnation and the end of morality.
Times change, and with them goes the
narrowness of puritanism. In years
gone by, dancing was condemned.
Now daneiug is recognized as health
ful pastime. 1t is encouraged, or
should be. If the young people desire
to dance the new dances, why not let
them? The old peopleof today, if thew
dance at all, waltzed and two-stepped,
where their grandfathers and grand,
mothers danced square dances and the
