4 GENERAL SURVEY OF
The WAR
SATURDAY.

A series of German successes along
the western front is announced in the
Official report from Berlin. It is said
attempts of the allies to recapture the
ground lost in Belgium have failed
and that French and British attacks
broke down under the German fire.
The French war office report gives
a different version of the situation in
BELGIUM. From this statement it
would appear that the German adj
vance had been halted. The allies have
recaptured part of the lost ground, 1t
is said, and are we'll organized and
fighting under good conditions.
It is stated in London that the Ger
mans have massed 100000 troops in
the vicinity of Ypres for a new drive
70 win Calais The British have been
reinforced and a desperate battle is
raging along a curbed front about
eleven miles long.
Quiet reign along the Polish front.
In the Carpathians the fighting con-
tinues under great difficulties, owing
to the bad condition of the roads.

1t has been long time, II PVe",
since the period an'edating conn-
" election remained as qnIet as 1t
is this wear. In spite of the fact
that in about six months all the
county offices except clerk of the
court are to be filled, but one can
didatc has thus fa' annouucF.5 him
self, and the subject is rarely dis
cussed. 1t is hardly TO be suppos =
ed that this anomalous situation
means that the county offices are
"going begging" and while t|e
available and will ing ones are hole
ing off the voters will do good
part by themselves and for the
county in helping to select the men
for these positions of trust and re
sponsiblity.
The Recorder, the county paper,
has never opposed the candidacy CT
tried to defeat any one af err he has
entered the field. and it has no pur,
pose to change that policy, but, at
this time, when it is not known
who the candidates will be, The
subject may he discussed freely,
and no one feel personally agrieVed.
In orr judgment, more interest
and concern centers in the Board
of Supervisors-the individual
members Of the board than IN any
other county office, and the reasons
are so patent that they need not lie
referred to at this time. OF the
multitude of responsibilities that
rests upon them, however, that OF
public roads is perhaps the most
important, and at the same time
the most knotty, trying and per
picking. The Recorder has argued
for a long time against the waste
ful and unsatisfactory policy OF
road up-k keep in Highland; it insists
that there is a way by which all,
nearly all, the available money may
be out on the roads and believes
that that way should be tried, and
effectnal!v tried. There are many
voters in the county who believe rs
we do, and if we expect a change
of policy as to roads, now is the
time to provide for it. Have the
prospective candidate commit him
self beforehand.
The present board is trying it to
q limite1 extent, but with eye
onening results: Two sections OF
road in Bluegrass were net let t"
contract because the bids were re
garded as excessive. The commits
sioner has expended half the
amount of the lowest bid-actuaily
applied it and we hear it said that
these two sections are the best IN
t1e district, What would they
have been had the whole amount
beon put on? Bath county ascer-
tanned that about 60 per cent Of
her money was being applied.
HIGHLAND continues TO guess at It,
except as shown by these isolated
experiments.
We ought to demand change
from our present system tor the
reasons, briefly stated: % We

SUNDAY.

The German advance north OF
'YDres seems to have been definitely
checked, some of the conquered
grornd having been recaptured by the
allies, although the battle still con-
tinues without abatement.
Berlin reports slight additional
gains at certain points in the Ypres
fighting and announces the capture OF
the villages of st. Julien, three miles
northeast of Ypres, and Kersselare,
which is about four miles in the same
direction from Ypres.
Paris says that a general check has
been administered to the enemys adj
vance il Flanders. and that the allied
troops having resumed the offensive
are pushing the German forces grad
ually back. Otherwise, the French wal
Office announces the capture of Ger
man trench in the Argonne and artll

IS GAINING GROUND
Free Fair Proposition Increases
in Popularity Daily.
Many Who Opposed 1t Have
Changed Their Views.

Reports received from various parts
of the county indicate that the free
fair tax proposition is gaining ground
steadily. Many farmers who have
heretofore bitterly opposed it have
turned over and are now supporting it
heartily.
1t is claimed now that the vote wiz
be almost a standoff in the county
outside the city of Topeka. If this is
true, the fair tax should win by a big
a majority for the tax.
While there is some opposition in
the city. as follows necessarily, since
the people rarely agree unanimously
on anything, still supporters of the
tax confidently ceunt~on Topeka'S vot-
ing for it,. Sentiment in the city has
even changed to- an extent within the
last few days. IA number of promi-
nent taxpayers who had openly stated
that they were opposed to the idea
have come around to favor it.
Continued investigation this morn
ing gave the following expressions
from well known business men on the
subject:
S. C. Petit of the Continental
Creamery company, a large institution
and a large taxpayer, said: I'VE ia
vor the free fair because we believe
it is the most practical plan that has
been thought out A fair is an edu-
cationa1 proposition and it should be
supported by general tax"
Robert Pierce, ST., manager of the
Chicago Lumber company: I'VE are
for it because we believe it will give
us a much larger attendance and will
create more interest and it will be bet
ter all around"
Paul Huycke of the Thomas Lum-
Der Co.: It's the only way to have
a big fair and we are heartily in IA
vor of it,
N. B. Burge of the Elmhurst In
vestment Co.: TT is for the general
public good and we favor it,
George w. Stansfie1d, druggist: TT
will make the fair bigger and better
and open it up to everybody; that's
the reason 1 am for it,
William Schick, manufacturer:

TO STATE BANKERS,
Capper Draws Cheers at Convention
by Tribute to Wilson,

independence, Kan, May 12.-Gov-
ernor Capper, speaking to the Kansas
State Bankers association in conven-
ton here, brought sharp cheers with
a tribute to the wisdom and ability
OF President Wilson. He believed he
voiced the feelings of the people of
Kansas, the governor said, when he
said the president is doing his utmost
to serve the nation in the best pos
sible manner in the greatest crisis
since the time of Lincoln
The governor made a talk to the
bankers on efficiency and economy in
state and county government, especial
ly from an executive and legislative
standpoint.
kansas has, in the past, at times
paid at least 10 per cent more than
it should have paid because it was
the custom to do things in a certain
way" said the governor.
]. c. Mohler, secretary of the Kan
sas state board of agriculture, also
addressed the convention.
1T takes two things to make a
state"soil and peop1e-and Kansas
has them BOTH" said the secretary,
complimenting the bankers on their
good fortune to be located in the state

H. b. Howard, electrical dealer: II

New York Stock Market:

In keeping with it's recent custom, bust
ness fell away in marked manner after the
first hour, but prices recovered from their
early declines. marlborough common was
the most active feature of the trading,
interest was at a low ebb and the profess
sional element held off when word came
from Washington that the president had
decided upon a policy in connection with
the sinking of the Lusitania. Other news,
including the situation in Italy, acted as
a check to possible activity.
Bonds were steady.
Normal condition prevailed during the
days early dealings in the stock market.
The undertone steady with narrow
price changes except in war specialties like
bethlehem Steel, American Locomotive and
Westinghouse, which rose j to almost 2
points. United States Steel opened at very
slight advance but soon reacted, this course
being followed later by other active issues,
including Copper, Reading and Canadian
Pacific. Local fractions were strong. Trad
ing was light and obviously professional.
