. LONDON, July 5.-Pressure Of the
Entente Allies on the Central powers
continues without abatement anC
while nowhere has any great amount
of territory been recovered important
strategic gains are claimed on the
western, eastern and Italian fronts
So far as the western front Is con
cerned the first phase Of the Anglo
French offensive is believed to Dt
nearing the end. Both north anC
south of the Somme the French and
British are engaged in organizing po'
Eitions captured since Saturday. Inc
French have taken all the German de-
fensive positions south of the Somme
and are now lighting in the open
country.
The next objective of the French in
this region is the village Of Barleau1
which is the junction point of three
roadways leading to Somme south
of Peronne. If this point is gained
the French will be in position TO
attack the bridgehead opposite Per-
onne which the Germans are
strengthening.
Slower Advance.
North of the river the Anglo
French advance is slower owing to
the fact that the Germans nave
massed the bulk of the twenty-six d.
visions which originally held this
front and of the reserves they have
since brought up. After the ground
gained has been consolidated II Is
expected artillery preparation for an
other big thrust will be made.
The Italians after gaining territory
in the Trentino are reverting to their
original plan of campaign and are
attacking along the lower Isonzo.
Important news comes from Petro-
grad. Russian advance guards on
General Ltachitzky's extreme left are
engaged with Austrian rear guards
on the spurs of the Carpathians and
unofficial reports even say Cossacks
have been raiding Hungary. General
Letchitzky's right has opened a pas
sage in the direction OF the stretch
of railway connecting the entire Aus
trian front-Kolomea, Stanislau, and
Lemberg, while the occupation of Del
etyn, for which the Russians are max
ing, would sever the communication
of General Bothmer's army.
Both Sides Claim Success.
Both Field Marshal Hindenburg
and Field Marshal Won Mackensen
are reported to have arrived at Ko-
vel to direct operations designed to
break the Russian arc in Volhymla.
The latest official dispatches contain
claims by both sides to successes in
this region. Press dispatches this
morning emphasize the Importance
Of the Russian victory near Barano-
vlchi, where the latest stroke of En-

SOMEBODY has unkindly called atten-
lion TO the fact that as a Judge of the
United States Supreme Court Charles E.
Hughes gave his vote to saddle upon
West Virginia that alleged Virginia debt
of some $4,000 900, and it is not adding
10 his popularity in this State. OF course
tits highly improper TO hold any feeling
against Judge because OF his conscien-
tious decision on the bench, but there
are lots OF persons who will be glad to
have chance to take crack at him, now
that he is a candidate. II was bad
enough to have this court place an I'M
just debt oil four millions against us, but
when four millions more in the way OF
interest were added, it's no wonder we
feel sore.

and we are just bit curious TO know how
Mr.. Hughes will be treated in West Viz
ginia.

Plain Questions to Shepherdstown
People.
Every Shepherdstown Reader Will Ad-
nit the Soundness of the Logic.

Would Shepherdstown people recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills as they do il
the medicine were not reliable Would
they confirm their statements after years
have elapsed if their experiences did not
show the remedy to be deserving OF II?
Statements like the following must carry
conviction TO the mind Of every reader:
Mrs. Nettie V. Turner, Rocky ST.,
Shepherdstown, says: 81 had a compl-
cation of troubles, the principal one be-
ing kidney complaint. My kidneys were
irregular in action and the kidney secre-
tions were unnatural. also had head
aches and there was soreness across my
loins. finally used Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured at Hills Pharmacy, and it did
not take them long TO make me stronger
and better in every way. They stopped
the soreness and backache and made my
kidneys normal"
Mrs. Turner gave the above endorse
ment OF Doan's Kidney Pills in Novem-
Der 1910. OVERTIME YEARS LATER,
she said 81 use Doan's Kidney Pills
once in awhile and they always give
immediate relief."

ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Turner
has twice publicly recommended. Fos-

Letter From Illinois.

Springfield, Illinois, July 20, 1916.
Dear Registrars am renewing my
subscription will write you few lines
on the happenings out here in Illinois.
We have had a good season and crops
look good. The wheat and clover hay
are cut and wheat thraShing is in progress.
Wheat and clover are both light, owing
to the hard winter and freezing out.
Corn is looking good. but needs rain
badly at present, as we have had no rain
for almost a month. Oats harvest is at
hand and promises to be fair crop.
The timothy crop is good. The hog and
cattle market is also good. We do not
raise many sheep through this section OF
the State.
have for the last four years been located
four and a-half miles south OF Springfield,
our capital city, on the main auto road
from Chicago to St. Louis via Springfield,
so you see have very desirable location.
Springfield is city OF %, 900 inhabitants,
and is quite a business center, owing to
its numerous factories. of which the Hi
nois watch factory and the Racine Sattley
farm implement factories are the princi-
pal. The latter has lately been purchased
by Montgomery Ward & Co., of Chicago,
and when the plant is remodeled they
expect TO employ 1000 men. Six rail-
roads and one electric line enter our city,
so we have good railroad facilities.
Among the principal events OF the season
was the preparedness parade, in which
1900 people marched. Then came the
national conventions in Chicago and ST.
Louis. Much interest was felt in the
Chicago convention, as Springfield had
candidate for the presidency in the per-
son of u. S. Senator Lawrence Y. Sher-
man. These events were soon over
Swallowed by the call to arms OF the Hi
nois National Guard, with orders to mobil-
ize at Springfield. Ii was an interesting
yet pathetic sight to see so many of our
young men ready TO render service to
their country. They were encamped at
Camp Lincoln and Camp Dunno, which |
visited while they were in camp. Most
OF them have been moved to the border
and Illinois is now represented 1900
strong on the Mexican border. stationed
at Brownsville and FL Paso, Texas.
Among them are some OF the best blood
in Illinois. Among the local boys to 60
was son of Governor Edward F. Dunno.
There have been numerous weddings
among the soldier boys, in which the
Governors son figured, receiving five
day furlough for his wedding and honey
moon.
In closing, will say, continue to send
me the old Register, as we miss it very
much when il does not come.
Yours Truly.

THE United States Senate seems to
have gone crazy on the subject OF pre-
paredness. The naval appropriation bill,
which was passed last Friday by vote
OF II to s, provides for the construction
during the next three years OF 157 vessels
OF various classes, at the enormous cost
Of 1888, lS0, SIG. Included in the ships to
be built are ten battleships, six battle
cruisers, ten scout cruisers, fifty destroy
ers, 68 submarines, and various other
vessels necessary ia the vast navy that is
contemplated. The Senate more than
doubled the estimates OF the House, the
House bill providing for but II ships of
all classes. The differences will be
thrashed out in conference committees.
We hope that conservatism and reason
may prevail and that the extravagant
programme ofthe Senate may be material
ly reduced.
One good provision in the bill passed
by the Senate is an appropriation OF SILL
600 GOO for the building Of government
plant for the manufacture OF armor plate
for our war ships. For many years the
government has been robbed by the
manufacturers OF armor plate, who have
charged the most extortionate prices for
their product, and Congress at last seems
determined to end this imposition by
making its own armor.

In statement issued the first of the
week General Lilly announces that he
will not further contest the nomination Of
Judge Robinson, Republican candidate
for Governor. This result was reached
after series of conferences held during
the past week by Republican leaders,
aud is the occasion OF much rejoicing in
the party.
The most interesting part OF the story,
namely, what inducements were offered
for the surrender OF General Lilly, is not
revealed, but it may be taken for granted
that the price is high. Among the offers
made TO him, according TO common re-
port. is the promise that he shall have
the nomination for Governor four years
hence. Just what other consideration
are in the deal are not known, but the
facts will probably leak out before the
campaign is over.
BY the figures that have been accepted
Judge Robinson's majority is $50, count
ing the disputed votes in Mcdowell and
Mingo counties.
