BERLIN, July 28.-Germany
looks back upon her accomplish
ments of the first year of the war
with satisfaction. The Germans
believe the events of the IL
months have demonstrated to the
world that the Teutons are the
mightiest race of all history.
Germany has won her claim to
a place in the Sun. The German
empire has added brilliant chap
tiers to the history of Teutonic
might begun under the Hohenzol-
lerns Of the kingdom of Prussia.
The kaiser himself has earned
for himself the title iof William
the Great, which posterity surely
will bestow upon him.
These are the dominant be-
liefs of the German people al
the close of the first year Of the
war.
Germany has shown up the
world in all it's littlenesses, and
all its boastings of false great.
ness. Only the Germans them
selves have withstood the test OF
blood and iron, for only the Ger
mans have gained victories dur
ing the last fateful IL months.
Germany believes she has
changed the whole future course
of history. German influence
upon the future. of civilization for
generations to come will be far
beyond the influence Of any other
nation.
Germany will not dominate the
world by her armed might, but by
her virtues which have given to
her a greater capacity for organi-
cation and discipline than all the
rest of Europe combined pos
sesses. Such is her fixed belief.
When the Germans look back
to last August and recall the
threats that then were being
made against them, and the PEN
alties that were imposed by Eng
land, France and Prussia in ad-
vance of the trial by battle, the
nation laughs.
The world didn't understand
Germany last summer. 1t is be-
ginning to learn now that the
Hohenzollern empire has pro-
crossed during the years since
the Franco-Prussian war in ways
unsupported by the rest Of man
kind.
There is nothing in the Ger
man of today that wasn't put
there by the discipline and study
that the world knows under the
name of Teutonic Kultur.

PARIS, July 26.--'The great
world-war is one year old this
week: What has France accom-.
plished?
put this question to Nj. Jear
Cruppi, ex-minster of foreign af'
fairs, member of the chamber Of
deputies and of the foreign rela
lions commission, a man physi
cally not very unlike Theodore
Roosevelt. He replied:
France accomplished the de
feat Of the Germans in the Battle
of the Marine; she stopped the
German drive for Calais and the
sea; she has kept Germany nailed
to the spot for 10 long months
steadily reducing her by attri
ton; she has done many othel
big things, but the greatest o.
all was the dropping of interna
differences, her unification of al
classes with one, great, fixed pur
pose in view: Victory"
YES" he continued earnestly
'our word union means some
thing more than the harmony Of
our people; there is something
of the sacred in it. This sacred
union will last. France is ont
man with one idea; final success
cost what 1t may!
To appreciate fully M. Cruppi's
words one has but to glance back
at the France of the years just
preceding the war; France, the
antithesis of Germany where col
lectivity is the national passion
France, the nation of individual
workers and thinkers where nc
two people could be expected tt
agree on any subject.
In the chamber of deputies
there are a score or more parties
instead of two or three as is the
case in the United States. The
Dreyfus affair split the nation
into two hostile camps and each
camp into others with varying
opinions. The Caillaux case Il
some extent did the same thing.
But what happened? The rea
France found herself. The ma
tons heart, so long hidden, was
revealed, and to the last man
France became unit. AS M
Cruppi remarked, nothing ha.
shaken this unity since.
The moment the general mobi.
lization order was posted in
France all classes rallied to the
tri-color. Gustave Herve tried to
enlist. Labor became marvel oil
efficiency and patriotism, anti.
militarists boosted 1t, considering
II against what they are against
-militarism. Socialists became
cabinet members, one now hold
ing q position similar to that oil

tions, in England.
II was the sacred union,'' one
of Frances greatest accomplish
ments.
Instead Of revolt in the ranks
the troops dried the tears Of
wives. sweethearts and mother,
with laughter and went their wa,
to war singing.

LONDON, July 26.-England' 8
greatest victory in this year-old
war was won before the war
started.
Forty or fifty years from now
the Germans willing-when
the British desire to honor the
heroes of the Great War, they
doubtless will erect imposing
statues of Sir John French, Sir
Douglas Haig, Sir Ian Hamilton,
Sir John Jellicose, Sir Frederick
Sturdee and Admiral John de
Robeek.
But If the English nation
should fail to recognize in this
distribution of awards a certain
blond, blue-eyed young states
man of dandified mien and lisp
ing voice, who by fortunes of
politics happened to be the first
lord of the admiralty in the sum-
mer of 1914, it will demonstrate
that other forms of government
besides republics are ungrateful.
"Brittania rules the waves" to-
DAY because of Winston Churchill.
To his foresight, imagination and
nerve is due the fact that when
the War Lord threw down his
gauntlet the British fleet was
READY.
Perhaps Churchill KNEW.
Anyhow, most of his colleagues
in the cabinet didn't believe him.
He acted In spite of them. His
resignation lay on the table, to
be taken up If events should
prove that he was wrong.
Early in July the Grand fleet
had assembled off the south coast
of England for its annual play at
war. The maneuvers followed
their usual course and under all
the rules the fleet should have
been scattered a week before July
rs, the day Austria declared war
against Serbia.
The next day-three days be-
fore Germany declared war
against Russia, five days before
she declared war against France,
and nearly week before Eng
land officially entered the fray
Churchill converted the pro-
longed maneuvers into the real
thing.
On the night of July 20, there
was flashed through newspaper
offices of London the brief an
nouncement, THE British fleet
has left Portland under sealed
orders"
Beside bottling up the German

achievement of the entire war

ALLIED GUNS BEATS GERMANS
Germans Caught in Own Trap by the
French. Trenches Blown up with
Bombs EntOmbinb Men.

Paris l5 y. M, oct More than
ten thousand Germans have been
entombed in their underground
trenches in the Champagne district
and are slowly sulTocating and
starving to death.
French soldiers have dropped
bombs into these underground work
ings and have sealed up the exits,
leaving the thousands to perish.
The Tcutons caught like rats in a
trap - the tremendous drive, were
unable to escape from the trenches,
while thousands of others were or
dercd to remain in the underground
forts, the German generals believing
that after the first French wave pass
ed they could be brought out to at
tack the French in the rear.
So fierce was the French drive
that the first line and portions of
the second line Of trenches were
swept away, and then the following
waves of French began dropping the
bombs into the trenches and sealing
up the entrances, leaving the thous-
ands to smother to death.
The world often startled by the
Joss of few hundred enLombed
men in some mine disaster, must
now grasp the entombment of at
lcast 10000 Germans, caught in their
own traps. unable TO escape the fury
of their foe.
Never in the worlds history Of
battles has there been such start
ling disaster as that which has over
taken these thousands of men.
Reports received this afternoon
from the front tell in detail of the
fearful havoc wrought by the French
above ground and now these same
reports go into details of this stiff
ing of the thousands in underground
forts, many of them more than twen-
| iy-ilve feet deep, connected by tun-
nels and with hidden exits protected
, by steel doors.
~ ClcNcIly we're Jle eAlJS COI-
cealed that frequently the French
were walking over them before they
were discovered.
Tracing the ground the French
found the concealed air shafts and
down these they dropped bombs that
exploded and forever sealed the en-
frances.
The estimate of 10000 men, dead
and dying in these underground
trenches is contained in the reports
1t is doubtful if their number will
ever be known, for the French are
covering up the exit and tranrform-
ing the trenches into tombs.

Last Call for State Fair

albuquerque, n. NJ, Oct. THE
big amusement features of the next
state fair will surpass in magnitude
and excellence anything that has
ever been known in this section of
the country While the fair is based
primarily on the development Of the
resources of every county in the
state, the management has not lost
sight Of the fact that the people want
to be entertained, and there will
not be a duh moment for visitors
from early Monday morning until
the lights are put out Saturday
night.
In the first place, there will be
eight bands, all of them of high
calber and several of them of nation
al reputation. What it means to
have the bands playing all the time
what spirit Of enthusiasm and
mcrriment it puts into the minds and
hearts of the crowd, only those who
have experienced the sensation can
appreciate. But the bands will not
be the only or greatest of the pleas
urcs of the fair, The shows at the
grounds, and especially the night
shows, will hold that rapt attention
of the thousands of visitors to the
fair and beyond all doubt will be the
greatest drawing card ever present
ed to the New Mexico public.
No better horse racing has ever
been seen in the west than that
which will take place on the track
at Traction park So great was the
interest shown in the race program
among the big horsemen at the Colo
RADIO fair that the first thing Sec
.retary Wiley found it necessary to
do on his return from Pueblo after
visiting that fair was to increase the
stable facilities Origionally provided
which were larger than any that
had been deemed necessary at any
previous fair At night an elabOr-
ate fireworks display will be shown:
there will be sword dancing, an illum
mated balloon ascention and para
lrhute drop, the big midway attract
ions, society vaudeville and all the
other sensations that go TO give real
thrills to plea9ure-lOving crowd.

direction of J. H. Toulouse, has as
sumed such propositions that it was
found necessary to call Mr.. ToulUuS,
in from his cluN asSing trip, as there
was danger that a larger cro"d
would be present than il would b.
