a majority of $500 in Ohio county.
We believe firmly that we are
able to roll up that much of ma
jority for Hughes and Robinson

every indication that this majority
of the nearly twenty thousand
voters in the county are for Dave
Mckee, Howard Hastings, Henry
Steck and William Hankey. The
legislative ticket, Emsley, Otto.
Weiss and Whitaker, looks equally
as good. Ohio county will do her
full share to send Howard Suth-

Berlin Paper Describes
"Day of Death in France

Berlin, Nov. 8 (via wireless to Say
ville) ga day of death in France"
Is the way November is characterized
by the war correspondent of the Der
liner Tageblatt," according to the
Overseas News Agency, which quotes
from the article as follows:
Again the British shortened Their
sector, but even on the shortened front
were forced to engage division of
minor value, which was sent against
positions that could not be reached by
picked men even at the cost of de-
struction.
"On this day also an attack near
Gueudecourt could not be launched in
consequence of the German curtain Of
fire which held the troops in the
trenches and swept the ground where
assemblies were taking place with
CHASTITY certainty. The French finally
gathered behind the front cavalry and
field guns. which, it was intended, were
to cross the destroyed trenches Of the
opposing forces.
"This great thrust resulted in a
great day of death for the storming
columns. They entered the German
trenches only to the northeast and
southeast Of Sally, where they were
defeated in sanguinary hand 10 hand
flghting, while other storming columns,
In complete disorder. fell back to their
own trenches.
"Three times hopeless attack
against lie Transloy was launched.
The French troops were decimated by
the German fire and the attempts were
then abandoned. The French also suf-
fered heavy defeats in the powerful
engagements between lie Sars and Bou-
chavesnes"

GERMAN SMASH
FAILS ON ANCRE
Try to Take Beaumont
Hamel, Commanding
Thiepval Front

London, Nov. s.-Fighting on the
Somme front to-day was confined to
local attacks by both sides north Of
the river. None of these efforts gained
ground.
The Germans, after an intense bonn
bardment, launched a strong counter
blow against the British positions west
of Beaumont-Hamel, north of the Ancre.
The advancing columns melted under
the deadly fire Of the British batteries.
BeaumontHamel is one Of the most
powerful points in the British lines,
and is strongly defended by heavy ar
tillery and machine guns. which COM
mand the front as far east as Thiepval.
The British took up the attack during
the evening between lie Sars and
Gueudecourt, but were unable TO ad-
vance.
After their brilliant sweep north Of
Chaulnes yesterday, the success of
which is admitted by Berlin to-day, the
French contented themselves with con-
solldating their new positions. London
looks for a decision in this important
sector before many days.
The German airmen carried out n
successful operation on Monday night
against the great French ammunition
depot at Cerisy. Berlin announces that
series of fires and explosions were
caused by bombs dropped.

BELGIUM TO PROTEST
DEPORTING OF CIVILIANS
Will Appeal to Neutrals Against
Hague Rule Violation

Havre, Nov. S.-The Belgian govern
ment has decided TO protest to neutral
against the deportation of
Belgians and their alleged employment
at forced labor in German factories
and in military work at Verdun. The
documentary bureau OF the Belgian
War Ministry says the government has
positive information that $4,000 Bel
gian men and a number Of French civil
ians forcibly were taken between DC
tober Is and "a from various parts OF
Belgium, the two Flanders and the re-
gions of Journal and Mons.
"These unfortunates," says the note,
"were crowded in open cars. exposed to
incorporate weather and sent as cattle
to various destinations, certain OF them
TO Germany and others to the Verdun
front. There can be no doubt that
most of them will be employed on work
of military character.
"The Belgian government has decided
TO protest solemnly 10 neutral coun-
tries against this particularly abom-
Unable violation of Article 3 OF The

workable as applied to existing condi-
tions. Copies Of all the schedules un-

Mackensen Beaten
Near HirSOva

London, Nov. s.-Falkenhayn's troops
are pushing ahead steadily in the i'm
portsnt mountain passes on the south
ern Transylvanian front. At the head
OF Bodzs Pass, southeast OF Kronstadt,

vania the Cars troops advanced over
the border as far as Belbor and Hollo,
in the Bystritza Valley. South OF Dor
navatra they gained ground west and
south of Mount La Muntelu.
South Of Predeal the Germanic troops
are in better position than anywhere
else on the front at present. The capt

of Clabucetul, five miles from Predeal,
has given them command of the sur

as far south as the village OF Azuga.

London. Nov. Sin modern warfare
the question OF casualties is the 1ore-
most problem Of the rival commanders
IN chief But all losses in an engage
uent must be weighed relatively, ana
,bere are as many standards as there
are armies.
The battle OF the Marne, one OF the
ao.;sivs hattie, Of all times, set high
standard in casualties. Before the
nresent war. which has made all past
conflicts pygmean in comparison losses
.ra viewed In an entirely different
light. e..
nrr,r0 the Aercest Of the Somme
fighting the casualties in one week ui'-
dorh,sdlv exceeded the total losses IN
tho entire Franco-Prussian War, put
the Allies considered the price they
Maid for their gains reasonable. Against
their losses they balanced their terri
torial gains, their capture OF prison
ers, guns and ammunition ana yer
casualties. On the other hand Prince
Rupprecht had to seek satisfaction In
the thought that the Allies casualties
exceeded his own.
II the Allies had decided TO push
right on 10 the Bapaume-Peronne road
in the first three weeks Of the so bnne
a. 20 Nothing would have pleased
the German general staff more than
70 have had Sir Douglas Haig and Cen
eral Foch try il. The cost OF the sue
cess would have been enormous COM
nsred even with present standards.
In August there was much bloody
fighting at High Wood. The British
wanted il. and the Germans considered

diers' lives. Undoubtedly more British
than Germans died there, but Genera!
