The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1915-08-23

A remarkable letter has come to the
Daily Chronicle from the front, pre-
sumably written by an officer In a
Lancashire regiment. 1t follows:
II cannot help but start with abuse,
although you are only one of those In
touch with the vast anti-conscription-
list mass Of British opinicn,' as your
leader writer puts It. Damn British
opinion, sir Damn the vain. self COM
placent English smugness and English
arrogance! To your vast mass the
Idea Of defeat Is quite uncomfortable,
for are they not the boys Of the bull
dog breed. the descendants of count
less heroes. free men In a free coun-
try, who just won't be slaves. the lib
orators OF Belgium? And SO On ad
nauseam!
80 colossal is British arrogance
that u brains and imagination are
swamped. We still seem to think that
ify Us, so that we may show them
what fine fellows we really are.
Probably you, too, have never Ell
tertained the Idea that we are losing
this war. Yet the bald truth remains
that the Germans are winning on
points. and we go on taking, talking
about the big push to be delivered
next spring. according to the Times
military correspondent please OBJ
serve that we have given up the idea
this year. We are still wearing down
the baby killing Hum
Advantage With Defense.
IF you could see trenches hammer
ed to hell by hundreds of guns, hours
OF smoke, dust, blood and noise and
then go across to take these same bat
tered lines, only to be met by a hail of
bullets, to return, leaving your friends
and men lying dead outside, 1t might
make you realize what an enormous
advantage lies with the defense.
"The French have battered for five
weeks-I have heard it day and night
q gain, two miles!
THE bubble of breaking through has
burst, but we are too deaf to hear the
pop
You answer with the German adj
vance In Russia and then go on to the
financial problem. or course Germany
cannot last; OF course she will be
starved In a few months; Of course she
has no cotton, no copper. but she has
got brains and method and uses both.
And we middle along ia our well
worn grooves, our party politics, our
newspaper dictatorship, our racing. our
brides In their baths.
Il have been ten months In France
nghttns for that-the thought almost
makes me vQmit.

 OUT OF YALE GAME
Coach Haughton Says Game Is Even Money Proposi-
 tion" at Mass Meeting

Cambridge. Mass, November 17.--A few hours after Coach Haughton of the Harvard football team had learned that
 Enwright would not be available for the game with Yale because of scho- lastic difficulties he told mass meet ing of students tonight that next Sat Iurday's game was an even money propo- sition.
 These 2. to>t bets are all bunk he said. T have a wholesome respect for
 Tom Shevlin and his works"
 Captain Mahan told the undergradu- ates that credit for Harvards football success during the past eight years was due to Coach Haughton alone. Enwright's loss was unexpected and came after his name had been promi- nently mentioned as the third member of the Harvard backfield. R. c. Curtis. injured in the Brown game, returned to the squad, but Rollins was given further opportunity to recover from the strains of that contest.

TUSCALOOSA
I. c. REPORTED TO HAVE PUR- CHASED A. T. N. R. R.--DEMAND FOR LUMBER INCREASED BY Ex- PORT ORDERS

Tuscaloosa, November 17,-(Special.)-I is rumored in Tuscaloosa that the Illinois Central Railroad company has purchased the Alabama, Tennessee and Northern railroad, and that the Illinois Central will assume control within 30 days. The Ala 5ama,. Tennessee and Northern railroad traverses rich and fertile country from Reform to Mobile. Reform Is only 30 miles from Tuscaloosa and local citizens are hoping that if the road Is purchased that the Illinois Central will extend it's tracks to Tuscaloosa over the line which they have already surveyed.
 Local lumbermen are jubliant over the increased demand for lumber during the last month. They attribute the greater demand to war orders. one prominent lumherman stating that 50,OO0,0OO feet of lumber has been purchased in western Alabama for shipment to France. He further stated that this lumber is being shipped to Cairo. H.. and there rebilled to Newport News, Va., where it is loaded on vessels bound for France.
