CAMPAIGN WILL NOT BE DE-
ciDED UNTIL NEXT
YEAR.
FORTIFYING ANOTHER FRONT
French Capture Several Trenches in
vosses, and Air Squadron ls Ae-
tive-No News From Darda-
neIles Campaign.

Iyondon.-Gen. Polvanoff, Russian
minister of war, announces Russia is
raising another 100000 men; that
the fate of the campaign will not
be decided until next year.
The Germans. in full possession of
the entire Brest-Litovsk line, have re-
sumed the offensive in the Baltic pro
Vinces and are pressing the Russians.
This may, in time. prove the most
important of the German operations,
although at present they are using
more troops in the pursuit of the Rus
slams who are retiring from Brest-
Litovsk and the line on either side of
the fortress.
The Russians had evacuated both
Brest-Litovsk and Olita before the
Germans arrived, as the latter make
no claim to the capture Of guns and
booty.
The intimation that the Russians
have fortified another front pending
an opportunity for a renewed Of
fensive has received some confirma-
ton. It is stated the new line is be-
ing strengthened by all the latest
methods known to military engineers.
The Russian armies still are intact,
with virtually all their guns, and pros
poets of a more plentiful supply OF
ammunition. For this reason military
writer's here are Of the opinion that
Grand Duke Nicholas now should be
able to make a stand.
The capture of several German
trenches in the Vosges was reported
by Paris, but what is considered sig
nificant is the continued activity of
the air squadron, which has been
bombarding German positions in
France as well as munitions factories
across the German border
There has been no further news
from the Dardanelles or the Balkans,
but It now is certain that Serbia is
prepared to make the necessary sacri
fices to satisfy Bulgaria and gain heE
cooperation in behalf of the allies. II
may be several days, however, before
the Serbian reply to the represent
tons of the entente powers is re
ceived. The vote Of the Serbian par
lament was only upon the principle
involved and negotiations now arr
proceeding between Serbia, Greece
and Roumania regarding the exac
nature of the concessions to be made
Bulgaria.

conerete WalIa for HeIa Muddy.'

Deputy LABOR Commissioner John L.
Bradley of the bureau of labor sta
tistics, who has studied the peculiari-
ties of the Missouri River, suggests a
plan of improvement which is prob
ably more easily accomplished than
the digging of the Panama Canal,
task which years ago was pronounced
impossible. II carried out by Missouri
it would solve the convict labor prob
lem, prevent the future flooding of
all Missouri lowlands, maintain deep
water channel the year through, and,
best of all, pay for itself.
The undertaking, while gigantic, IL
only matter of engineering skill, and
a good portion could readily be car
ried out and completed in four or five
years.
The Bradley plan is to build con.
crete levee along the Missouri River
from the Iowa line to the place where
this stream flows into the Mississippi.
It would be high enough and suffi.
ciently strong to withstand the great
est flood and the heaviest pressure Of
water which can occur. Convicts could
be used for the work, and since build
ing concrete levees is a new industry,
one created by the state, 1t would not
conflict with any class of work now
being done by free labor. The state
would be put to the expense Of erect
ing huge cement plant within the
walls of the penitentiary, but this and
oil Y-iu onofe
would be met through the sale by the
state of bottom lands rescued from
river bed, which now belong to the
federal government. Missouri River
bluffs would furnish free material for
the state cement plant, the farmers
owning them being only too glad to
allow them to be used for this pur-
pose, since the proposed concrete
levees would forever protect their bot
tom lands.
Deputy Bradley suggests that such
ievees need not entirely be Of cement
work the inland portion being made
up of rip-rap, macadam and gravel,
with the river exposed portion Of con-
crete 8 feet thick, and laid deep
enough under low water level to pre-
vent undermining at any stage of the
Missouri. Behind the rip-rap Is to be
backing of sand and soil pumped
from the channel of the river. The
same to be 100 feet across to give it
sufficient strength to hold the rip
rap and concrete well in place against
any possible pressure.
Old steamboats, and barges bought
by the state for that purpose, and re-
constructed into floating prisons by
convict labor would house the con-
victs after working hours, and when
properly guarded would be as safe as
the penitentiary now is. and be more
sanitary. The merit system could be
put in force for the benefit of con-
victs detailed for river improvement
work, the promise being held out to
such that a certain number of merit
marks bestowed for diligent toll and
good behavior would win a parole.
There, also, the merit system, to an
extent, could prevail. A day Of labor
for convicts could then be eight hours,
with eight hours for educational and
recreation purposes, and eight hours
for rest

his friends told Larry Owen, when he
announced his intention of getting
married and retaining his job.
Larry smiled, and when his friends
saw his bride they changed their
opinion. Dorothy was a mite of a
thing, just like little gray mouse
Welsh, like Larry, and girl whom
he had been engaged to before he
went to Montana to work on the
sheep ranges.
Larry did not intend to keep Doro-
thy in seclusion upon the hills for
ever. Just as the seaman hasthoUghts
of a quiet farm where he can spend
the latter years of his life, so Larry
had always dreamed of a snug little
country place with an orchard, bees,
and chickens and no sign of a sheep
within a hundred miles. He was an
expert farmer, besides being a shep-
herd, and he had twelve hundred dol
lars stored snugly aWay-almost
enough to start the farm.
There was a certain orange farm
in a California county on which he
had his eye for some months. How
Dorothy would love the life there, the
warm companiOnship of the western
er beyond the ranges, the sun, the
ease. He had paid a flying trip there
six months before. But he said moth
ing Of this to Dorothy.
