HOSPITAL SHIPS

Destruction of Britannia
Prompts New Measure
by Allies
ATHENS BLAMES U-BOAT

LONDON. Nov. 20.
Armed conveys from the British naval
station at Malta probably will accompany
Allied hospital ships plying in the Mediter-
ranean and Aegean Seas as a result of the
sinking Of the 4S.OOO-ton British hospital
ship Britannia.
The Britannia was carrying no wounded
when she was sunk In the Aegean Sea. This
was officially announced by the British Ad-
miralty today. 1t Is understood that the
Britannia carried 121 nurses and 800 Of
fcers and men of the Army Medical Corps.
Although the Admiralty states that the
mighty vessel was destroyed by mine
or torpedo unofficial dispatches from Athens
declare that she was sunk by submarine
The Athens correspondent of the Chroni-
Gle telegraphs that two submarines were
lying in wait for the Britannia off Zea
Island, and that two tJrpedoes were fired
at her from opposite sides One missed
the dispatch says, but the other obtained
direct hit
Press and public alike today unto in
bitter condemnation of what was termed
another example of German ''frightfuness."
Frequent reports from Germany have in
dicated consideration by the Government
of resumption of an unlimited submarine
warfare. 1t was pointed out here that
there could be no mistaking the character
Of the Britannia. No submarine commander
could have failed to identify the ship. not
only from the fact that she carried the
usual hospital emblems, but because she
was the biggest ship of her kind in the
world That the vessel was therefore, the
victim of n deliberate attack was the ver-
dict here.
The smallness of the loss of life--the Ad-
mlralty places it at about fifty--is at
trlbuted to the large number of lifeboats
on board. the discipline of the crew and
the complete absence of panic. The
Britannia remained anoat nearly an hour
after the explosion occurred early Tuesday
morning.
The twenty-eight wounded are being
cared for on Zea Island by members of the
staff of 121 nurses carried by the Britannia.
Some of the wounded are in such a serious
condition they may die

LONDON, Nov %. Emperor Karl
Francis Joseph. of Austria, will immedi-
ately give up his command OF the great
group of armies operating against the Rus
slams and Rumanans in order to devote all
his time to affairs OF State, according to a
aispatch from Vienna today
The twenty nine year -old Emperor of the
Dual Monarchy. who is at present in
Vienna, has already assumed his Imperial
dutles. A German general may succeed
the Emperor as commander of the Carpa-
THAN troops.
whether or not n new Government for
Austria and Hungary will follow the change
Of rulers is not yet certain.
The body of the late Francis Joseph will
be Inferred in Capuchin mausoleum some
time next week. probably on Thursday. on
Monday the body will be removed from
6choonbrunn Palace to the Hoffburg
Chapel, where 1t win lie in state during
Tuesday and Wednesday.
The reign of the new Emperor-King be-
gan without any ceremony other than the
proclamation that he had become the ruling
monarch through the death of the aged
Francis Joseph. He was proclaimed
'.Kaiser and King Karl the First" 1t is
possible that the coronation ceremony may
be delayed for n considerable period-per-
hnps until the end of the war.
The Austro-Hungaran court has gone
into mourning.
An Amsterdam dispatch says that the
suggestion has been made In Vienna that
memorial services for the late Emperor be
held on all the fronts where Austro- Hun
garian soldiers are fighting.
Bitter comment marked the editorials in
British newspapers today on the death of
Francis Joseph. The general trend of opin.
ION 10 that the change of Austro- Hungarian
Fulershlp will not change the war situation
and that the influence of Germany over
affairs has been
strengthened nearly to complete domlna-
tion.

the war think that Austria will be tho
final battle ground; the Russians ad.
vancing from the north and east, the
Roumanians from Transylvania and

Serbia started the war and it is quite
possible that it may end there. Few
critics think that either Of the opposing
forces along the French boundary will
be able to make decisive stroke. but it
will be the business Of the entente

THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

There has nothing occurred of special
significance on the European battlefelds
this week. AS usual, fighting has been
going on at different points. with vary.
ing successes and conflicting reports
On the whole the progress is in favor of
the allies and show that they are still
squeezing along all lines.
Indications are that we may expect
some heavy fighting in the future. In
the Sonme region both French and
English report advances for short dis.
tances but along considerable fronts.
They now claim to be in complete posses
aion of the German second defence lines
but what is really greater gain is that
they have compelled the Germans to
bring up large bodies of troops from
other points to defend the Stromme
position and thus weakening other
points where they are needed. By this
Stromme drive they claim to have re-
leived the German pressure on Verdun.
There are now so many different
"fronts'' circling about Germany and
Austria that it takes studious study of
maps to keep up on the geography Of
the war. Besides this the long foreign
names puzzle the reader. This is es-
pecially true in the Balkans where there
are at the present about four different

JUNE PRIMARIES AND E.
AUGUST PLATFORMS.

Sundays Grand Forks Herald points
out another absurdity apparent in the
North Dakota primary laws. The pri-
mary occurs in June and the candidates
are selected at that time, but the party
platform is not made until August when
the committee meets. Meantime the
selected candidates are supposed to be
without definite party policy
again, at the late meeting of the Re-
publican committee the opposing fac
tions we're only one or two votes apart.
There is no doubt as to what most of
the candidates as selected stood for, but
If it had happened as it easily might.
that the conservative faction had had a
couple more votes, then the party plat
form would have been radically different
and the candidates thus bound to sup
port principles which they do not be-.
lieve and to oppose principles on which
they were nominated and to which they
have already declared their adherence.
The primary law assumes that each
voter shall make personal selection of
candidates for his party. That is good
as far as it goes. The present result
proves that he should logically, go still
farther and at the same time write upon
his ballot his special party principles
and not leave it to committee that
might start his candidate in the race
running backwards.

MAINE GOES REPUBLICAN,.

The state of Maine has always occu.

tial elections, in that 1t holds its election
for state officers in September. This
early expression of political sentiment is
always watched with great interest by
politicians as it presages to some extent
the results of the November electlsns.
''As goes Maine SO goes the Union" has
passed into proverb.
Four years ago the Republican party
split in Maine as it did IN other states,
which gave the Democratic minority the
control of the state officers, enc senator
and one congressman.
~ The returns now indicate that the Re.
publicans have won out by substantial
majority all along the lines.

sues. Both parties had large number
of prominent speakers campaigning
there, great meetings were held, and
even the old.fashioned torch light pro-
cessions were revived, and they have
certainly had "hot time in the old
state" during the last two months.
The political question was what would
the former Progressives do? Would
they "come back" or would they drift to
the Democratic party?
There were reasons for these questions.
To a considerable extent the old lines
between the parties were broken. The
European war, the Mexican fracas, the
questions of preparedness" and the
treatment of these issues by the Presi.
dent and Democratic Congress and
perhaps the threatened railroad strike.

time large body of voters have express.

GET BUSY ON CAMPAIGN
ST. Louis, June 16.-With Wilson
and Marshall again as their ticket
and their party apparently complete

set to work on plans for the coming
campaign.
With Vance Mccormick, known as
a progressive Democrat, as national
chairman, with VIM. Jennings Bryan
and others of his type as the star
speakers, and a platform that comes
close to the Progressive platform, the
Democrats are confident Of winning
the big bulk of the 100000 voters
who were with Roosevelt in 1912.
1t took only about four minutes to
nominate Wilson and Marshall by ac-
clamation last night. Bobby Burke
of Chicago registered kick against
Wilson, but he was shouted down by
the other delegates. Before the nom
inatiOn of Wilson a demonstration
lasting As minutes was staged
Bryan thrilled the convention with
one of his Old-time speeches. He
praised Wilson and his foreign policy.
John WestcOtt of New Jersey placed
Wilson in nomination. Former Gov.
Judson Harmon of Ohio and Gov.
Stuart of Virginia made the second
ing speeches.
The resolutions committee worked
on the platform all through the
night. It is known that Wilson's for
eign policy, his action in Mexico and
his views on preparedness were en-
dOrsed,
The platform also endorses equal
suffrage, but puts it up to the states.
