Kansans who never owned a horse

vance members of the Anti-Horse
do not worry about catching the thief
who stole a spawned mule from a
farmer in Sweet Glover township.
There is a new crusade for the or
ganization. 1t has undertaken the
task of running down the automobile
thieves.
In the good old days CT Populisn:
and the Farmers Alliance and when
Mary Ellen Lea sc was in her element,
Kansas farmers knew the pass word
to the A. H T. A. and they hunted
horse thieves with dogs and guns.
Once in long time-not in Kansas, OF
course--a misguided horse thief was
hanged to sapling that his sins
might be a lesson to his brethren
Now the thieves in Kansas do not
treme instances. Now they steal mo-
torcyc1es and six cylinder motor cars.
So the membership of the A. H. T.
A. is presenting many, many new
faces. The membership is no longer
confined to the sturdy farmers and
the men in the rural districts. The
new A. H. T. A. is an organization of
the men on the paved streets and in
the fashionable residence districts of
the larger towns of the state. These

protect their automc biles.
Live in Cities Now.
In Topeka today c. r. Hare of
Coffeyville, state organizer for the
Horse Thief Protective association,
declared that more than half of the
total membership lived in the towns
and cities of Kansas.
twenty-five automobiles are stolen
in Kansas as compared to the theft
of one horse" said Hare. THAT is
the reason the town and city man is
becoming interested in the organiza
ton"

ton of the state association in Topeka
several years ago, w. r. Stubs. J. N.
Dolley, Arthur Capper, George Fl.
Hodges and a score of other well
known politicians were in the meet

Possibly they figured the political
benefits from membership IN the or
ganization. But they also looked to
the association for the protection of
their big automobiles.

Dun'S Review.

New York, Oct 2.-Dun's Review
says:
Success of the foreign loan negotia-
lions foreshadowS a further extern
sion of American enterprise and en-
phasizes the position occupied by this
country in international finance.
With constructive factors multiply
ing prospects steadily brighten and
actual gains in business are now more
in keeping with the growth of opti-
mistic sentiment.
Almost without exception, reports
from the leading centers tell of accu-
mulating evidences of progress and
only in isolated cases, such as in the
lumber trade, IS depression still mani
fest.
Development of fall business is ex-
ceeding expectations in some quarters
ture in the dry goods markets, which
are buoyant in response to the rapid
rise in raw cotton.
Though the dye stuff shortage con-
tinues a handicap, the textile situation
generally shows distinct improve
ment.
Pressure on the steel mills is so
great that producers are chiefly con-
cerned with the problem of making
deliveries, conditions in this respect
being further complicated by the re-
cent rush of railroad equipment
orders.
The industrial boom is not alone
confined to the east. 1t has spread to
the west and south and in the latter
section manufacturing plants that
have been idle for years are resuming.

Hutchinson, Kan, Oct. 2.-Lieuten-

Mr.. Morgan stumped Kansas in the

equal suffrage for Kansas women-a
campaign in which, by the way, the
amendment carried by about 10000
votes 1t was Mr.. Morgans first ex-
perience, he said, in statewide cam
pa1gn. He now has been called on by
the women of the three eastern states
to help them swing New York, New

WHAT WAR MOVES MEAN.
BY J. w. T. MASON

New York, Oct 2-The most sig
nificant indication for the moment of
the conditions along the western bat
tie front is that the allies official
reports now enumerate the gains in
yards instead of miles, and speak of
captured prisoners in hundreds in
stead of thousands.
1t is apparent from this fact that
the Germans continue to stiffen their
resistance, although they are not yet
holding their own at every point along
the line. The British seem to have
abandoned their efforts to reach Lille
and have halted their other offensive
north of Ypres Apparently they are
concentrating their efforts now at
Loos.
The Germans are now facing a con-
certed Anglo-French drive which has
the important German supply station
of Pouai as it's objective, twelve miles
east.
To re-enforce the Pouai line, other
parts of the German line probably
been weakened. If the allies discover
from what points the Withdrawals
have been made, the possibility exists
these semi-guarded barriers.
But under normal circumstances,
before a successful assault can be de-
livered against entrenched positions,
there must be intense artillery fire
before the attack, to blow the enemy's
distractions away. This fire acts as
a warning to the enemy. Some notice
would therefore have to be given the
Germans if the allies were to select a
would then be a race to see if the
Germans could concentrate troops
rapidly enough to offset the effective
ness of the allies artillery.

HIGH LIGHTS OF WAR news
OF ONE YEAR AGO TODAY

The French war Office reported
that there were no new develop
ments on the western front but that
the general situation was favor
able.
The German war office an
nounced that repeated attempts to
outfiank it's ;rmieS had been re-
pulsed. 1t was declared that the
cruiser Karlsruhe had sunk seven
British steamers in the Atlantic.
The BeIgians admitted that the
forces defending Antwerp had fall-
en- back to the River Nethe.
Petrograd news dispatches said
that the Germans had evacuated
Russian Poland and that whole
regiments had been drowned IN the
River Nieman. The car had left
for the front.
A news dispatch from Nish de-
cIared that the SerbianS had made
a raid on SemIin and had recfoSSet

BULGARIA LIKE TURKEY.
Menacing Attitude of Sofia Now OF
Great Concern to Allies.

London, Oct 2-The situation on
the eastern front is still regarded in
London as of the greatest immediate
importance, notwithstanding the new
offensive in the west. To transfer the
center of gravity of the war to the
western front is the task now before
the French and British.
The menacing attitude of Bulgaria
doubtless is having a marked bearing
on the activity of the allies in France
and Belgium, for increasing pressure
on the German lines would exert a de-
cided influence on plans OF the Aus
trians and Germans to concentrate a
heavy force on the Serbian frontier.
should they commit themselves to a
fresh campaign in the Balkans with
the assistance of Bulgaria That ma
ton now occupies, as Foreign Secre-
tary Gray phrased it yesterday, the
position Turkey held during those
weeks of uncertainty before she cast
her lot openly with the central pow
erS.
Urged to Strike Quickly.
Some sections of the British press
are urging Greece and the allies TO
strike quickly the instant 1t is deter
mined that diplomacy is no longer
able to avert a crisis.
ITO wait until Bulgaria actually
moves" says the Manchester Guar
dian, 'is to surrender the strategic
initiative to her.
''B0tW66n an AuSIrO-deIIiletA attain
on Serbia and Bulgarian attack there
is no practical difference. For the
allies, the moment of decision mas
come AS soon as they are convinced
Bulgaria is determined to make war
they should dispatch an ultimatum TO
her and give her the chance or peace
or war.
Must Not Lose Initiative.
SHOULD Bulgaria accomplish the
Germans design of linking Berlin with
Constantinople," the Guardian con-
tinues, "a very grave change viii nave
come over the complexion of the war
in this zone, a region where 1ar
reaching result might be achleVeo by
the allies with relative speed an econ
omy The strategical initiative must
not be frittered away by taltn IN
meaningless hopes or fear OF resolute
action"
