AND
 ELECTION RETURNS
Thru Efforts Put Forth in Mena and Over Polk County the People Were Kept Informed Up to the Minute
 Polk First With Full Returns.

The citizens of Mena, as we'll as the residents of the county outside Of the county seat, were given an op- portunity Tuesday night to get elec- ton returns practically as complete and as prompt as were obtained in any of the metropolitan cities. This feat was accomplished thru the CO., operation of The Star, s. H. Blair, the manager of the Lyric theater: H. W. Roberts, the manager of the Southwestern Telephone Company, and tho local operators of the Vest ern Union Telegraph Company, all supported by bunch of public spirited citizens.
 The returns were received at the Lyric theater. where from 9 o'clock Tuesday night until late Wednesday morning crowd varying from 300 to 50 gathered to hear and discuss the news as 1t came flashing over the telegraph and telephone wires.
 At ( o'clock "Wednesday morning, when those receiving the returns gave up the task, every available re- port of the result in the nation had been bulletined. and returns from i8 out of 24 precincts in the county had been received. settling every con- tested election among the county of ficers, and securing almost as defin- ite information on the result i'll the presidential race as was obtainable up to late in the day Wednesday.
 The bulletin board containing the vote on the State. District and coun- ty officers and the vote on the acts and amendments was moved to The Star office Wednesday morning, and by If o'clock returns from every precinct were on the board. During the entire day the Star office was the center of all election interest.
 Notwithstanding the cooperation of the forces who had the financial part in charge. the splendid results could not have been obtained if it had not been for the good work of the Western Union operators, the hello girls and the faithful sery- ices of The Star correspondents in
 hn various parts of the county.
 During the night more than sev- enty-flye telegraphic reports were handled by the Western Union op- orators and delivered by Porter Pet CTS and ShelbiOn Bullion, two lively messenger boys. The volume of this service may be better appreciated when 1t is stated that these mes sages averaged well above 100 words each
 Nc less strenuous was the service rendered by the young ladies in charge of the telephone office. The Misses Myrtle COpes. Vera Montgom- cry and Mary Driscol. day 0perat- ors. were on duty until ii.30 D. m. and from that time on fhe work was handled signle-handed by Miss Pearl Drennon. night operator. To their patience and perseverance is largely due the success in getting so nearly complete returns from the county.
 A telephone message from the Ga- zetta at Little Rock this afternoon, asserts that Polk counfv was the first in the state to send in complete unofficial returns.

SARCASTIC NOTE FROM
 MEXICO TO ENGLAND

Mexico City, Nov. 6.-Foreign Min ister Aguilar has replied sharply to Great Britain's demand that Mexican neutrality be vigorously enforced as regards the German submarine, be- lieved to be operating ill territorial waters of the southern republic. The British note sent thru Secretary Lansing, and warning agarnst aid or assistance being afforded the Teuton submarine, created unfavor- able feeling here, which expressed itself in Aguilar's reply.
 The Carranza foreign minister first pointed out that he failed to see why the British note should have been sent thru the United States de- pertinent. instead of direct to the Mexican foreign office. He declared that Mexico could no more be held responsible for German submarine operations off her coast, than could the United States be held responsi- ble for the recent activities of the U-53 off Nantucket after that un- dersea fighter had entered the American port.
 The reply, with thinly yelled sar- easm, suggests that the best way to assure continued friendly relations between the two governments is for the British beet te prevent German submarines from leaving their bases, thus eliminating any chance for dis agreement. The Carranza foreign office, Aguilar declares. will, how ever, permit no violation of it's neu- trality by any warship of bellig- erent nation.

BOARD AGAIN HAS SWING.
Probably Soon Will Have Successor
 for Dr. Bledsoe.
Special to The Star.

Special to The Star.
 Little Rock, Nov 7.--Now that the Supreme Court has affirmed the lower court in sustaining the Board of Control in the discharge of Dr. E. P Bledsoe as Superintendent of the Insane Asylum, the Board again comes to the front For several months the Board has been re- strained by court action from inter- fering with the management of the institution. Now, by a vote of three
 to two, Justice Wood and Hart dis senting, the hands of the Board are united and they are free to proceed with the enforcement of their ac- ton for the discharge of Dr. Bled- soc, and to elect someone as his suc- cessor. No action has been taken yet. Mention of Dr. Greene is again heard, but doubt is expressed whether he will give up his private practice to accept it.

LONDON CLAIMS BRITISH AD-
 ANCED SOME DISTANCE

HEAVY FIGHTING
 ON ALL FRONTS
Allied Forces Seem to Be Developing Great Successes in Nearly All CaSes-British Suffer Naval
 Losses German Losses.

London, Nov. 7.-The past twenty four hours have been marked by continual action on practically all the fronts, with severe fighting at some points. The allied armies at all but one or two points are deyel- oping what appears to have been great successes.
 Altho infantry actions on the western front did not develop yes terday, there was heavy cannonad- ing. The English report mentions especially heavy shelling at the British front. The Germans appear to have consolidated on the lost ground and regained the region of Buttee de Walenmourt, where coun- ter attacks drove the British from the hard-wOn trenches.
 The Rumanians. apparently, have failed to retrieve their defeat in the PredeaI region, where the Austro- Germans captured Laomu Heights, but they appear to have maintained the positions won in DObrudja, where they drove the enemy out of three villages.

This is great reversal on all the early returns. When New York, H. linois, Indiana, Wisconsin and all the New England States gave Hughes big majorities, the opinion prevailed that Hughes had won. This was voiced this morning by the Associ- ated Press summary, which gave Hughes 267 and Wilson 2S3, with 31 doubtful.
 An Associated Press summary at 9:i0 this morning made a much bet ter showing for Wilson, giving him 232 to 2fS for Hughes, with Sf doubt ful, this being the first word that came to revive the almost extinct hopes of the Democrats. Later bui- letins confirmed and improved this, until the final message as given above.
