KEEP YOUR hose AT HOME.

Isn't it about time for the gov
ernment to call a halt on the
rapidly growing habit of certain
American people poking their
noses into Europe's affairs?
Their meddiesome advice has
not been solicited and it will not
be needed, and the only visible
effect will be the bringing of our
own country into disrepute in
the eyes of the people of all ma
tions, a condition which may
easily lead to serious trouble for
US in the near future.

We are making this last plea

money IN such way that it will
be of benefit to all of the people
as well as yourself.

Who wants dollars in this com

his full share in an effort to
make 1916 the banner year for
this whole community?
There are many ways, but no
one man can think, plan and ex-

that co operation right now. It
needs the brains of all of these
people to get US on the right
track with full steam to 20 right
ahead.
We suggest the holding of a
rousing big meeting of all our
citizens for the purpose of talk

We suggest that a mum er of
our leading and progressive cit

their own signatures, and that
they invite everybody to come

Then we can pick the wheat
from the chaff and use it for

more wheat and better wheat.
Will our leading citizens call
such a meeting for some time
during the holidays, when every
body is feeling good and is will
ing to pass that feeling on to
others?
We are waiting to hear the
call.

Gallipoli Peninsula-French
Repel Turks.

PARIS. August 14.-British forces
have been successfully debarking on
the Gallipoli peninsula and have made
considerable progress against the
Turks, according to an official COM
munication issued here today on the
Dardanelles situation. The enemy has
failed to Aenetrate French lines. The
statement reads:
ION the Gallipoli peninsula British
forces, since August 6, have been de-
barking successfully at a point near
the Bay of Suvla. on the west, side of
the peninsula. They have made prog
ress at a point further to the south, in
the vicinity of Gaba Tepe. Here, after
some severe fighting, these forces were
successful in gaining a footing on the
slopes of the height of Sari Basir.
They took more than $50 prisoners and
captured nine machine guns. The
operations at this point continue to
progress.
"At the south end of the peninsula
the efforts of the Turks to penetrate
our lines all resulted in failure On
the 7th Of August we made some slight
progress. Since this date the activity
on the French front has consisted
mainly in artillery fighting, with
marked advantages for our batteries"

AUSTRIAN HEADQUARTERS, Au-
gust 14.-Despite the resistance which
the Russians are offering to the pres

On the southern wing, where signs of
breaking were observed in the battling
around Lubartow, the enveloping allied
forces again have inflicted a number of
severe blows and driven the Russian
rear guards in upon their main body.
The Prussian guard corps particularly
distinguished itself in the fighting in
the difficult swamp and scrub country

Jafa in Palestine.

Jaffa, in southern Palestine, Asiatic
Turkey, is about $50 miles northeast of
Port Said, at the Mediterranean end of
the Suez canal. In Jaffa is large
foundry owned by Wagner Brothers.
The French marine miIistry's COM
munication leaves in doubt the nature
of the expedition said to have been
nIaced against the canal. 1t would be.
obviously impossible to construct at
Jaffa a naval force of sufficient
strength to cope with the warships OF
Great Britain and France in those wa
ters and it might be inferred that small
vessels were being built for raid, de-
pending upon secrecy and speed for
the success of the adventure.
The Suez canal was the object of at
tacks by the Turks earlier In the war.
An army was sent to Egypt last winter.
and in February there was some fight
ing near the canal. The main forces of
the Turks, however, did not reach their
goal. -----
