BATTLES IN Near
CONSTANTINOPLE
Turk Losses in the OardaneIIes
Reported al $4,000.

ATHENS = Vigorous lombard
ment by the entire allied fleet Of
the Turkish Notifications along the
Dardanelle5 and sanguinary combats
for strategic positions on the Gallipoli
peninsula continued. The fighting for
ferocity and continuity has surprised
even the long-drawn-out combats of
the Balkan war and the loss Of life on
both sides is very much greater.
The Turks hold excellent positions,
well protected by artillery and the al
lies are compelled to advance a yard
at a time, digging themselves in as
they push forward.
Turks Lose Thousands.
The Turkish losses in killed anu
wounded alone on the peninsula num-
Der $4,000. 1t is stated that every
hospital in ConstantinOple is filled to
overfowing, and that temporary hos
pitfalls have been established.
In order to prevent the people of
Constantinople knowing just how
heavy their losses have been many OF
the wounded are now being sent into
interior of Asia Minor for treatment.
Germans Driven Back.
LONDON, ENG.-With the British
and French line REINFORCED by about
100000 men, a stupendous battle that
is expected to lead to a decisive re-
suit is being fought north of Arras
with all the fury of which the COM
batants of both sides are capable.
Repeatedly the allies have hurled
their ranks against the Germans for
two days along a front twenty-six
miles long, both inf1icting and suffer
ing 'heavy losses"
Declares Attacks RepuIsed.
The net result to date appears in
favor o fthe Anglo-French troops. Ger
plany's official report announces that
the great Anglo-French attack" was
begun, directed against German posi-
tions 'east of Richebcurg, east of
Fleurbaix, east of Vermelles and at
Ablain, Carency, Melville and st.
Lourent." The repeated attacks" it
goes on, have been nearly every
where repulsed with heavy losses for
our opponents" and sin the case of
the British attack about. 500 prison
ers have been taken
The official report from, Berlin, how
ever, admits one German reverse.
"Only in the region between Carency
and Neuville,'' it says, Ibid our op-
ponents succeed in establishing them
selves in our foremost trenches. Il
counter attack is now proceeding"

Compulsory Military
Training

FUDGE HUMPHREYS, in an interview pub
y lished this morning, says that The Advertiser
devoted the greater part Of its editorial defense
the actionof Major General Carter ia address
ing the legislature on the Compulsory Military
Training Bill to abuse OF the secretary OF war.
The Judge declares that his own cabed protest 10
Washington was against the major general as an
officer and not an individual Having drawn
this distinction, il might have occurred to Judge
Humphreys that The ADVERTISER referred to the
secretary Of war also as an official and not as an
individual 1.-THE had read carefully he would have
noted that The ADVERTISER did not abuse even the
official but declared the rulings Of his department
ridiculous as applied 10 Major-General Wood,
which they equally would be il applied 20 the
action OF Major-Gen Carter. NJ.
Judge Humphreys says in his interview that he
is opposed to militarism and believes in nippng il
In the bud in Hawaii He would find that there
are very many others in the Territory also opposed
to miIitarism but they wii not all agree with him
that receiving minimum Of military training con-
stitutcs militarism. any more than teaching ire
drill in the public schools constitutes incendiarism
III has always been Americas pride that her
citizens formed her defense foreei that a large
standing army to rcpe possible foe from the soil
was unnecessary, and there was a time when this
pride was partially justified. War was less COM
plicated then than il is today; weapons were more
or less crude and the citizens eligible for the 6r-
ing line were more or less familiar with firearms
and with woodcraft and possessed the ability to
shift for themselves under outdoor conditions.
That time no longer exists War today is not
as il was in l776 or 1872 Every nation we may.
have to fight is not decrepid Spain. In this day
we must either have trained citzenry or large
standing army and a powerful navy, or we must
be preparedto face the ignominy now being under
gone BY China, that OF swallowing whatever some
other prepared nation may set before us
The Advertiser has never been ardent cham
pon Of House Bill l48. but the principle Of the
measure is right. Our youths should be taught
how to bend their patriotism to some ukeful end
should our soil ever be invaded; they should be
taught how best to; take care Of themselves under
conditions which they may be called upon TO face
even should war never again come to us AT least
nineteenth Of the training Of an American militia
man fits him for better citizenship and makes him
better man. And the other one-tenth tof bis
training, which has TO do with the actual lighting,
certainly does not outweigh all the benefit, even
accepting as wrong anything that has TO do with
the killing Of an enemy.

Oakla,1d's Example

MAINLAND is doing many things after which
~ Honolulu could well afford to model and pro-
fit. Among other things, the love of City Beau
tiful is being taught the public school children
there, with the result that the Oakland little ones
are not only identifying their own school grounds
and their own home grounds but have undertaken
the ambitious plan Of beautifying with flowers the
main streets Of the city
Just year ago. tho, boys and girls Of Oakland,
more than 10000 strong organized as Garden Sol
diers for the Identification work. To this end
they planted around their homes more than mill
lion geranum slips; and as result they now have
enough rooted plants on hand to beautify more
than two hundred miles Of street frontage This
record the city officials say, has never been
.equalIed before.
These plants were raised for the main thorough
fares Of Oakland and in addition to this. the chill
,dren already have done many miles Of street plant
ing in the less used streets Of the city. 81 MA
In order that the grown-ups may second the
splendid work done by the Gprden Soldiers, Mayer
Mott OF Oakland declared one week 10 be Clean
up and Spade-up'' week, and the adults prepared
the ground for the children 20 plant their gera-
NUNS. @#tt
More than three thousand school children turn
ed out on a recent Saturday and gave up their
holiday play to dig up weeds, spade up the ground
along the streets and plant their geraniums The
work accomplished was wonderful and when IL is
under full sway, and the entire army Of Garden
Soldiers get busy. the result will be something for
Oakland to be proud OF.
