Nish Is Threatened by
Advance of Bulgarians

London, Oc-t. 20, 12.1S P. NJ. -
The first phase of the Austrian Ger
man-Bulgarian campaign in Serbia is
completed. Not only have the in
vaders of Serbia realized the import
ant objective of joining hands in che
northeastern corner of the country
but they have enhanced this military
advantage by procuring free passage
down the Danube.
The progress of Bulgarian troops
east and northeast of Nish both
threatens the city and places the Ser
bian army in a position of increased
danger. Moreover like the union of
Bulgarian and Teutonic armies further
north, the capture of Nish would have
more than mere military or strategic
advantage since it would make pos
sible rapid establishment of railway
communication through Belgrade
Nish and Sofia, among Austria, Ger
many and their allies.

In communication to the county
commissioners Clerk Guyer, acting
for the board points out that the
$4,000 is needed to pay salaries and
to pay for provisions, heat. light
clothing and shoes, furnishing and
building hospital supplies, repairs
farm expenses, improvements, out

Guyer says that the unprecedented
hard times of last winter are respon-
sible for the poor boards defciency,
thereby admitting the dire effects OF
the national Democratic administra-
ton on the laboring men of Harris
burg and Dauphin county.
The county commissioners realizing
that there was no other way out OF
the dilemma but to provide the
money. agreed to allow the reuuisi-
ton. This wasn't exactly the way the
poor board had figured out their own
solution to the problem. The Demo
