AN APPRECIATION

Attorney VIM. E. Lee was down
from Moscow Monday on business
before the district court Mr.. Lee is
one of the attorneys who has been pre-
pairing the defense in the Blake libel
cases, also assisted in the defense in
the Hoar case when the editor of the
Republican was sued for criminal
libel, case t,at turned out to be
farce, although costing the tax
payers of Clearwater county about
500. Mr.. Lee is a member of the
firm of Orland & Lee of Moscow, and
people needing the service of lawyers
Inside of Orofino can safely entrust
their interests in the hands of this
firm. You hear people say that law
yers are all crooked; that poor man
can't depend on them. Perhaps law
yers are human, like the rest of us
mortals, and some of them are un-
worthy, but when attorneys, without
much prospect of pay, stand by man
through fight, sticking like
brother, it is test that ought to sat-
isfy anyone. We feel very grateful
for the loyal way our attorneys have
fought in our behalf, and it is with
no small degree Of pleasure that we
thus publicly pay them deserved
compliment. Nor should it be over
looked that John r. Becker, a local
attorney, was always in the fight,
even though his name did not always
appear. He could not have worked
harder had his own interest been at
stake, nor could an attorney have
stood by client more zealouly. Night
and day John Becker labored to gather
evidence, and had the cases gone to
trial the public would have under
stood something of what this capable
young lawyer did. and have awakened
to the fact that here is one of the
most able lawyers in the state.
These case are now history, but in
passing let the reader understand that
our appreciation of the above men
toned attorneys is not without reason.
Early in the cases, when looking
about for counsel, a lawyer betrayed
us, throwing us down at what was
then critical stage of the cases.
This attorney had the immaculate
temerity to excuse his perfidy on the
ground that he considered the cases
were nothing but petty little politi
cal row between the editor of the Re-
publican and Pat Blake. Those who
heard the Blair Hoar libel case
against us can appreciate the flimsi-
ness of this excuse.
So we have cause for approaching
loyalty, and can be excused for ex-
pressing our gratitude when time has
given the opportunity to test the
quality of metal of which men are
made. An honest man is still the
noblest work of God.

Orofno is showing evidence of
healthy growth. During the year
past the town has enjoyed substantial
growth. There has been increased
unity of purpose among the business
men, a pulling together that has pro-
duced results. The people are united
for good roads, and are together here.
The need of development of the var
led resources of the county is recog-
nized, and legitimate enterprise can
rest assured of every possible induce
ment. Orofino has gone ahead during
time of national depression, adj
vanced substantially while most towns
have suffered setback, and with the
flu ture full of promise there is no
room for encouragement

"Why | Changed Front on the
Liquor Question"
By EX-GOVERNOR MALCOLM R. PATTERSON
of Tennessee

of Tennessee
This is the story in the mans own
words, of the most remarkable change OF
front that has taken place the part of
a saloon advocate within the past gener
alton. There was no more bitter enemy
of the Anti Saloon League and of all Pro-
hibition measures than Governor Patter-
son, of Tennessee. When such man as
this suddenly reversed his attitude on the
liquor question, broke away from all old
associates, and took his stand among the
anti-saloon people, the story of what he
did, and why he did it, is certainly worth

Germans in Great EIankIna Movement

Germans in Great FIanking Movement
London, July 2S.-The magnitude oi
the German enveloping movement in
the eastern field now is absorbing the
attention of the British officials and
public.
The latest reports show that Gen.
eral Won Buelow's force Of cavalry,
10000 strong, has turned seuthward
from Riga and is within eighty miles
of the railway connecting Petrograd
with Warsaw.
In this way the northern German
line is closing in on the main north
ern railway artery to the Russian cap
ital, while the southern army SINH
larly is approaching the main south
ern artery running to Odessa.
There has been a clean sweep from
the Russian war office of the men re-
sponsible for the shortage in ammuni-
tion, according to the correspondent
at Petrograd of the Daily Mail"
The correspondent reports the ex-
istence in the Russian capital of
more cheerful feeling at the courage
Gus resistance which the Russian ar
mics are making to the Austro-Ger-
man advance. He says authorities ad-
nit that no large Russian counter
offensive is possible until the mobili
zation of industry bears fruit in a
largely increased supply of munitions.

One mother grasped her two chill.

child was torn from her, but she and
the other were saved. Fathers were

children to safety.
One man was seen to cling to a

Sea Craft.
Austrian warships and hydroaerO
planes made a combined attack on
the Italian coast in the Ancona re-
gion from sea and air.
A squadron consisting of a cruiser
and four torpedo boats is believed to
have come from the Austrian naval
base at Pola, ninety miles north of
AncOna.
Appearing of the coast shortly af-
ter dawn, the cruiser opened fire from
position three miles off upon the
railroad line between Fano and Semi
gallia, north Of Ancona. The torpedo
boats served as guards to prevent
an attack by an Italian submarine.
While the railroad was being bonn
barded several Austrian hydroaerO-
planes few southwark to Ancona. Ris-
ing above that city, the aviatOrs drop
ped a number of bombs.
The official announcement of the
Austrian raid says that only slight
damage was done.
Austria is resorting to every means
to disguise her defeat along the
Isonzo river, which has cost her in
killed, wounded, and prisoners more
than $4,000 men.

The German advance against Riga,
the great seaport in Russian Cour-
land and government seat of that
province, which has been steadily
rolling back the AIuscovite defending
forces, has been effectually checked
by Russian warships.
This reverse for the German arms
IS related in the official communica-
tion issued by the general staff. The
invaders were within nineteen miles
of their goal, when the naval guns
found their positions and forced them
to the defensive.
The official statement also declares
that the German advance south of
Plutusk, small town north of War
saw, has been held up by Russian
counter attacks, but it admits at the
same time that the enemy has reached
the advance positions of ne great
fortress Of Novo Georgievsk, twenty
miles northwest of Warsaw, and that
the siege of that position has begun.
Assaults against the advance posi-
tions of Ivangorod have been re-
pulsed, and the terrible battle along
the Bug and Wieprz rivers has not
yet reached a decisive stage.
