Outside the German official state.
ment which records the advance of the
Austro-German forces and the capture
by the Bulgarians of Zajecar and Kni.
aJevats, both on the Timok river north
east of Nish and the heights of Prot,
almost directly east of Nish, there is
little or no authentic news of the in.
vasion Of Servia.
+ + +
A dispatch from Sofia says that
after long and sanguinary fighting the
Bulgarians captured the fortress Of
Prot The dispatch adds that some
civilians were killed in the Russian
bombardment of Varna, but that little
material damage was done.
y n +
Direct connection between the Aus
tro-German forces in Servia and the
Bulgarian army of General Boyadjieff
has been established on the Danube
river to the east of Bra Palanka, ac-
cording to the official announcement
given out by the German army head
quarters staff. German troops under
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg have
penetrated Russian positions over a
front of more than a mile in the fight
ing in the Dvinsk region.
r r T.
That there has been heavy fighting
hntWnan tho na1otona nd hn
mans along the boundary line of the
Congo Free State and German East
Africa is indicated by advices just re-
ceived by the Belgian minister Of the
colonies. These dispatches say the
German troops were beaten with
heavy loss and put to fight by the
Belgians.
+ + +
On the eastern and western battle
fronts, as in Servia, heavy fighting
continues. In the Riga and Dvinsk re.
gions of Russia, the German field mar
shall, Won Hindenburg, undaunted by
repeated failures during the past forty
days to reach the Russian fortress on
the Dvina river, is making another
furious determined effort to achieve
his aim.

The Italians still are carrying on
their offensive against the Austrians,
while the struggle in the Champagne
region of France, begun when the
French captured portion Of the La
Courtine works from the Germans,
some of which the Germans have re-
captured, still is in progress.

The French troops have Joined
hands with the Serbs and, according
to French accounts, the severe defeat
on the Bulgarians at Krivolak, forty
miles north of the point where the
Saloniki-Nish railway crosses the
Serbo-Greek frontier, places the Bull
garians who reached Istip, Veles and
Uskup in rather an awkward position.

The Italians, by their offensive, are
compelling the Austrians to strengthen
their lines, and the French by their
capture of a strongly fortified salient
north of lie Mesnil in Champagne,
have shown that they have not yet fin
ished their effort to break through.

AN EYEsoRE

Both local newspapers have, in
the past few weeks, drawn atten-
ton to the slovenly appearance of
the river bank from the Maple
street bridge south. We sincere
ly hope that some action will be
taken during the next few weeks
toward cleaning this stretch up
and making it agreeable to the eye.
AS we have before pointed out if re-
fuse is thrown over that bank it
will not be carried on down stream,
but remain wherever it drops in
to the now scarcely moving water.
There is already an accumulation
of refuse there which will take
considerable effort to remove, but
the longer the work is put off,
and if the practice of making that
dumping ground is continued,
the Job will be still more difficult
when it actually has to be done,
as it some time will be. This re-
fuse heap along the river bank is
not only an ungainly sight to be-
hold, but it is also a menace to
public healtha It is a breeding
place for the deadly fly, and i t
should be attended to NOW before
their Matching season commences.

THE POPULATION OF RIVER FALLS

There appears to be sad in
consistency in the census and build
ing records of this city. We all
know that River Falls has enjoyed
a healthy growth in building pro-
jects, especially in the line of new
residences. But our census returns
show a decrease in population dur
ing the same years in which build
ing progress has been most active.
We do not like to see this official
census report sent broadcast over
the land, showing a decrease from
1000 down to 1,7OO, when there is
such strong evidence to show that
the report must be SO decidedly in
error. A correct census would I'M
doubtedly total upwards of $500,
and we believe it would be to the
interests of River Falls to have a
careful count taken, and the results
advertised.

Stephen Everson, chairman Of the

dignant over the New Richmond

tor of the Hammond News he says,
in part: "You seem to think that
because New Richmond succeeded
in getting a so-called endorse
ment of their plan for a packing
plant that therefore the proposed
plant will go there. There are
many good and sufficient reasons
why New Richmond sohuld not
have the packing plant.

The MUCK RAKE

Someone has evidently mistaken
the Spring call for garden rakes
and hauled out the muck-rake in
stead. We refer to a recent article
in a st. Paul daily purporting to
unearth some scandalous disclos-
ures of financial waste at the Wis
consin Capitol. The rake may or
may not have found useful employ
ment, but we don't feel that the
article calls for much serious con-
sideration inasmuch as it studi-
ously avoided the mention of names
or any other Identification of a
traceable nature.
