tinuo to make progress, but against
the French their attacks Of yesterday
delivered to the east of Rheims, met
with a complete repulsc, as did those
of previous days
While it was expected that the
Austro- German onslaught in the
north would be the most formidable,
as a matter of fact the Bulgarian at
tack against the Serbians through the
valleys from the east are proving the
most dangerous. It is now definitely
settled that the Bulgarians have cut
the Saloniki-Nish railway north OF
Nranya, thus driving a wedge between
the main Serbian army and the
Anglo French forces which landed at
SaloniIi.

There is another railway, which,

Where MinneapoIi. F.lIs Down,

Many OF the smaller cities of the
state. such as Mankato. Winona and
ST. Cloud. have recognized in prac-
teal way the real benefit to themselves
of putting the roads leading into town
in the best possible shape. They have
found that business OF all kinds Is i'm
proved by the Improvement Of these
radiating roads. and they have gone
Systematically about I. 70 make the
most OF their opportunities.
1t has remained. however, for the
largest city in the state to neglect this
exercise of ordinary business sense.
There are many fine roads leading into
Minneapolis from the surrounding
farm country, but in number OF cases
the good roadway stops abruptly when
1t reaches the city limits.
The cause Of this sort OF costly neg
lect is, no doubt, our Anticipated ward
system OF street improvement. There
are very few voters living along outer
Marshall street, for example. and thus
there is little incentive FOR the First
Ward aldermen to have the road kept
III good repair. The interests Of the
city as a great business center are Of
minor importance. compared with the
individual interests Of the voters Of the
ward.-Minneapolis Journal.
