FIGHTING WAGEO
ON LARGE SCALE
BATTLES FOR THE cARPATHiAN
PASSES CONTINUE WITH
EXTREME VIOLENCE.
On the West Front the Commanders
Are Waiting for Better Conditions.
Operations In DardaneIles
Being Continued.

The battles for the Carpathian pass
es continue with extreme violence
This being the only region where, for
the moment, fighting on a large scale
is taking place.
In the west the commanders are
waiting for better conditions before
making any effort on large scale.
although the French here and there
are attempting to capture positions
which would give them an advantage
when the general offensive is decid'
ed upon. Their more recent efforts
have been directed against the heights
of the Mouse, to the east and south
OF Verdun, in which both they and
the Germans claim to have made
gains.
The objects of these operations is
to compel the Germans to evacuate
st. Mihiel, where their line reaches
the River Mouse, causing consider
able bending of the French front.
In the Dardanelles except for a bat
tleship throwing shells into batteriei
at Kilid Bahr, there has been nothing
going on except the work of the mine
sweepers
OF the operations in the Dardanelles
nothing has been officially published
for some days. 1t is supposed tha'
the allied fleet is waiting for the mine
Bweepers to complete their work be
fore the attacks on the forts are re
neWed, and perhaps also for the ar
rival of reinforcements of ships, mer
and ammunition.
Upon the success of these opera
lions depends not only the fate of Tur
key, but probably the future policy
the Balkan states and Italy.
In Italy big demonstrations were
held calling upon the government tc
take action to realize the ambitions OF
Lhe country; while in the Balkan cap
itals the diplomats of the allied ma
tons are busily engaged in an en-
deavor to reorganize the Balkan
league and insure the simultaneous in
PREVENTION of all the Balkan powers
on the side of the allies. Before this
can be done, Serbia must be induced
to make concessions to Bulgaria in
that part of Macedonia which fell to
her after the last Balkan war.
The Germans also are active in
Sofia and are trying to induce Bulga-
ria, by the cession of part of Europe
an Turkey, to remain neutral
German submarines are again oper-
ating in the Irish sea and it is be-
lieved that at least one more steam
er has been sunk by them.

Law To BE Enforced

The following communication received
from H. A. Griffiths, Prosecuting At
torney: There seems to be some doubt
in some localities as to the enforcement
of the rule OF the Board of Health re-
garding all dogs to be muzzled. This
rule Of the Board of Health has all the
force and effect of law, and the penalty
for a violation thereof is not to exceed
$4,000, or six months in Jail, or both.
I have information from various parts
OF the county OF the existence Of rabies
among the dogs and coyotes of Canyon
County. This endangers not only the
person, but the animals. Of all citizens
of the county, and it is my intention te
enforce this law rigidly until the disease
is thoroughly stamped oct. 1t is als'
the duty of every citizen to assist in th'
enforcement Of this law thereby savini
themselves unnecessary trouble by OBJ
serving the law and requesting thei
neighbors to do the same.

"A Narrow Escape

George Roberts, a fourteen-year old
boy, son Of Mrs. Roberts who lives in
the eastern part OF town, was struck and
run over by an automobile about ten
o'clock last night. The accident hap
pened at the Oddfellows corner while
the machine was turning from Third to
Grove. The auto was Ford driven by
Chas. Burton, of Wilder, who, with
four others, was starting home after at
tending Masonic lodge.
The machine was going slowly, and
the boy, who was on his way home,
evidently became confused and lodged
in front OF it. Two wheels passed over
him but he emerged from the accident
practically unhurt except for some
minor bruises. According to eyewit'
nesses no blame can attach to Mr.. Bur.
ton, who felt keenly the unavoidable oc
currence. The boy walked home with
out assistance after the accident.
