as lost. Three days later. having dug

Rheims. along the front of eight or
nine kilometers (about Ave miles),
stretching between the Butte de Tir
and Prunay, the Germans have re-
newed their attack, which failed pit
eously before. in the same region.
In spite of the violence Of the pre-
paratory fire on the part of the ar
tillery and the increased density of
the blanket of suffocating gases, the
enemy suffered a further check. On
three distinct occasions our assail-
ants endeavored to penetrate our DO
sitfons.
Decimated by the fire of our machine
guns and the concentrated fire of our

Wilson Declares for 1916.

President Wilson will not only be a candidate
for denomination next year, but he will fight for
the honor of being his partys standard bearer, if
it be necessary to fight His speech in Indianapolis
yesterday plainly justifes that interpretation The
President had not single apology to make for
his administration; he goried in its achievements,
and willing to stand on its record, adding that
the Democratic party is still trial., that it has
"to prove to the independent voters of the country
not only that it believes in these things but that it
will continue to work along these lines" Every
sentiment he expressed was of confidence; he be-
Geves the Democratic party has triumphed in
power, and that the people will keep it in power
He sounded one emphatic warning, perhaps
meant for those Senators who are giving him battle
over patronage, perhaps for the custodians of the

Heroism Not Decaying.

People who constantly afraid OF the decay
of heroism ought to be reassured by the manifeS-
tation of that virtue in the New York subway FIRE.
The subway, full of smoke and gases, and with
more than 1000 human beings trying to get out
and climbing over each other in their fright, or
succumbing to suffocation, was not a pleasant
thing to 60 into. But fremen, policemen, and
good many citizens plunged into the darkness and
fire and smoke to rescue the prisoners, and showed
about as much courage, and as self-sacrificing re-
gard for their fellows, as men who on the field of
battle get Iron and Victoria Crosses. And this
is not unusual; the heroic virtues are displayed
abundantly in all emergencies and dangers by men
and women who have not the supporting sense of
orders from above or comrades at their side

seems to have adopted reasonable policy calcu-
lated to produce better feeling and a more cheerful
cooperation between the Washington motorists
and the Maryland officials, while the course pro-
posed by the commissioner OF motor vehicles is
unreasonable and can only result in encouraging
the spirit Of antagonism that now exists. WASH

An analysis OF the last Congressional election,
Just completed by James B. Reynolds, secretary
of the republican national committee furnishes
indisputable evidence, if any further were needed,
that politically the country has returned to normal
since the uphcava1 of 1912. In the thrty-eight
States whose returns have been compiled, there was
a Republican gain last November of 248o,588 over
the Republican Presidential vote OF 1912. There
was Progressive loss Of 2,5o7,8IT, as compared
with the Presidential vote OF that party two years
ago In other words, the Progressive loss IS
within less than per cent Of being the same as
the Republican gain. The political Moose is prac-
ticaly extinct. In less than two years the two old
parties will go to the polls upon the issues, old
and new and the next President is not likely to be
a representative OF a minority of the people.

Instructive statistics come from London, show
ing the effect of our lowered tariff English in
dustries Notwithstanding that shipments OF
worsted yarns from England were completely sus-
pended in December owing to the demands for
military purposes, nevertheless for the calender
year the total shipped to the United States amount
ed to I,o65,ooo pounds against only $1,000 pounds
the preceding year. A much more sensational in
crease is shown by woolens and worsteds. In the
former while the December outgo was only 3o2-
600 yards against $4,000 yards in December, 1913
the total for the year shows the phenomenal ex-
portation of 82Io,ooo yards in 1914 as compared
with 100000 yards the preceding year, while in
the case of worsteds the total shipments to the
United States were 32,7oo,ooo yards against only
o,2I6,ooo in the preceding year. The exports of
worsteds in December amounted to I,727,ooo yards
against I,4o3,ooo yards in December, 1913. Of
course the war has curtailed very heavily our i'm
ports of other commodities and from other coun-
tries, otherwise the balance of trade would never
have turned in favor in the face of these enor-
mously increased purchases from the English mills

IF any group of men," he said, should dare break

enviable notoriety and responsibility which will
