GERMANS DEAL HEAVY BLOW
TO SLAVS ON EASTERN FRONT

Driving against the center of the
Russian line, On the eastern front,
German troops have gained possession
of the Russian positions on a front of
about two and half miles. The at
tack, which also resulted in the cap
ture of more than 5000 prisoners, took
place in the district Of Skrobowa,
twelve miles northeast of Baranovichi,
north of the Pinsk marshes, and where
only isolated fighting has occurred
lately. The Russians, Berlin also
says, lost twenty-seven machine guns
and twelve mine-throWers.
The success of the Germans is ad-
mitted by the Petrograd war Office,
which announces that the Russians,
after stubborn resistance against sew
en- onslaughts, were finally compelled
to fall back to their second line of
trenches. Elsewhere On the eastern
front to the Carpathians there has
been little fighting, according to the
Official communications.
In Dobrudja the advance of the
Russo-Rumanian forces southwark
continues and Petrograd records a
battle with Field Marshal Van Mack
ensen's troops in the region Of Tcher-
navoda, recently abandoned by the
Rumanians. At Tchernavoda is the
bridge of the railroad running be-
tween Constanza and Busharest, and
i is for this bridge the Russians and
-1umanians are fighting. Petrosrad
also announces me occupa ion OF sew
eral towns between Hirsova and
Tchernavoda. Berlin says there have
been no important changes in Dobrud-
ia. On the Transylvania-Ruma from:
Archduke Charles has assumed the
offensive and pushed back the Ru-
manians In the Pedreal sector stub
born fighting continues, with both the
Austro- Germans and the Rumanians
claiming progress. The Austrians
have almost completely recovered the
ground lost in the Georgeny Noun
tains November 4
Several trench elements north Of
the Somme near Les Boeffs and
Saillisel have been captured by the
French. Berlin states Franco-BritisA
attacks between Gueudecourt and
Sally were repulsed.
There has been much aerial fight
ing on the western front. Berlin re-
cords the destruction of seventeen En-
tente aeroplanes, and Paris asserts
that ten German machines were
brought down. London admits that
seven British aircraft failed to return
to their base after fighting in the air.
In one of the fights squadron Of
thirty British aeroplales and Ger
man squadron Of between thirty and
forty were engaged.

Columbia, Nov. 10.-At specia'
called meeting of the South Carolina
State Press Association, held at
o'clock this afternoon, which was, well
attended by editors from throughout
the state, separate committees were
appointed to take up the matter oi
cooperate purchasing Of print paper
direct from the mills and the advis-
ability of establishing a paper mill in
South Carolina for the manufacture ol
print paper. The high cost of news
print paper and the probable shortage
in the near future were discussed
fully.
A letter was read from Mr.. D. R.
Cocker, of the Coker paper mill at
Hartsville, stating that he was not in
position to take up the matter Of the
manufacture Of news print paper in
connection with the situation in this
state just at this time.
The following committee was ap-
pointed to look into the matter of CO.
operative buying: A. B. Jordan. OF
Dillon; T. M. Seawell of York; H.. L.
Watson, of Greenwood; Allison Lee,
of Laurens, and F. C. iWfthers, of Co.
lumbia.
The committee to look into the feas-
ibility of establishing plant in this
State is composed of J. L. Minis, OF
Edgefeld; E. H. Aull, of Newberry;

The president of the Georgia asso-
citation. who had been expected to be
present, was not able to attend.
Messages were received from both
the Georgia and North Carolina asso-
Citations looking towards cooperation
in the matter of purchasing direct
from the mills. The tendency over
the south seems to be along the line
under discussion by the South Caro-
lima editors this afternoon.
In regard to the matter of the es-
tablishment of mill, Mr.. Sims, Of
Orangeburg, said that he felt sure a
large amount of stock could be raised
in Orangeburg, and Mr.. Hartwell NJ.
Aver, of FIarence, who took a promi-
felt sure site could be secured in
Florence which would be suitable for
the purpose, which would be given by
Florence if the mill should be located
there.
There were other encouraging talks.

States Atty Hoyne had squad of

were hurting similar charges at the

The fierce anti-union labor senti-
ment developed against Strike

days made the chances of Gov.

leaders who had endorsed Brinton
developed cold feet and instructed
their workers not to pay any atten-
ton to the scrap for governor, but
to concentrate on the Sullivan
county ticket. /
On the Republican side the Low

all claiming victory. In the longest

for states atty, were reported to be
running strong. ...-.

not stand it to see his own street 60

looked like Christmas festival, SC
ordered twenty-five Christmas trees
for old Seneca. AS soon as the week

the trees on Sunday morning. to-

trimmings, and will play Santa

lis children and ought to be Christ

Why did not someone think of that
before!
This story goes in, directly in op.
position to the instructions of Mr.
|Gustuson. but who cares for instruc'

too good to keep. And the best part

will get with interest all he put in

Ilieve it, just try it this week.

Gravel Roads This Winter.

Jewell Record: A lot of road
graveling in this section of the coun-
ty is the program of the county
board of supervisors this winter, so
it is announced. A big bed of grav-
ell has been uncovered on the John
Peterson farm just southeast of Jew
ell, a good grade of gravel and con-
veniently located SO as to be easily
accessible for use on some of the re-
Gently constructed county graded
roads in this part Of the county.
AS the Record understands it, the
plan is to have the gravel hauled by
the Conn Construction Co. who have
now ended for the season the work
of grading on county roads in this
part of the county. The county road
between Jewell and Ellsworth and
probably the county road leading
north from Jewell to Blairsburg,
both of which were built a year ago
this summer, are to be graveled now,
as well as the new grades on roads
leading out Of town west and south.

FIRE ON BASC0M
HUDDLESTUN farm
Occurred Sunday Afternoon on Farm
Tenanted by John Richey Near
Woodstock.

A disasterous fire occurred Sun.
day afternoon about o'clock on the
Bascom Huddlestun farm about four
miles northeast of Woodstock by
which John Richey, the tenant on
the farm, lost much of his household
goods. The fire was discovered by
Mr.. Huddlestun of this city himself
who was driving up to the farm and
when about quarter of a mile away
saw the smoke arising from around
the chimney. Arriving at the home
he informed the occupants, who were
just sitting down to dinner, unaware
of the conflagration going on right
over their heads.
Mrs. Richey gave the fire alarm
call at the telephone and in about
fifteen minutes there were at least
fifty neighbors on the scene work.
ing bucket brigade. By this means
only, was a portion of the house
saved and Mr.. Huddlestun thinks
the combined loss on household
goods and the house will amount to
about $1,000. Three rooms were
saved so that the family can
live in them while the work of re-
pair goes on.
This fire is a demonstration Of
what can happen with automobile
service and good roads. Had there
been no such things as autos, and
had the roads been impossible, the
house would have been cosumed by
flames, for the farmers had hard
work as it was to save portion of
the structure. The house was insur-
ed but it is understood that there
was no insurance on the household
goods.

THAT new NORTH
WESTERN DEPOT
A Suggestion About Location That
Ought to be Attractive
to the Railroad
Company.
AT HEAD OF WILSON AVENUE.
Street Could be Vacated From the
Railroad Tracks to Alley North
of Second Street.

There seems to be good grounds
for the report that the Chicago &
Northwestern Railroad Company is
going to build new depot in Web
|ster City that will be credit to the
company and to the town. Webster
City is the best town on the North
western line between Des Moines
and Mankato, Mimi, and is entitled
to depot in keeping with it's i'm
portance. Yet the station that has
been doing service here is a small
and insignificant thing, built thirty
five years ago. Webster City has
grown from a village of 1,SO0 people
in 1881 to city of about 1000 and
its passenger business has increased
in even a greater ratio.
Just how much the company ex-
poets to expend upon its new depot
here the Freeman-Tribune doesn't
know, but one of suitable size and
appearance cannot be constructed
for less than $4,000 or $4,000. OF
course the company will want to put
it upon the best location attainable
and where it will be easily accessi-
Bile to the public and present the
best view. 1t has been suggested
that the best possible location is at
the head of Wilson avenue, just
west Of the site of the present pas
senger statfcn. The street at thiss
point extends to the railroad right
of-way only. That portion Of the
avenue now extending through the
railroad property could be vacated to
the alley north of Second street, CIV
ing the company an ideal location
for it's depot. When its trains stop
ped at the station the cars would not
extend to or obstruct the free pass
age of any street, thus avoiding some
of the annoyances to the people and
the company while minimizing the
possibility of accidents.
1t is reported that the Ft. Dodge.
Des Moines & Southern Railroad
Co., now electrifying it's line into
this city, is going to join with the
Northwestern in the construction of
new depot. If that be true, the To-
cation herein suggested would be
ideal for that company too. If our
people who believe this would be
the right place for a new depot will
take steps to call it's advantages to
the attention of the railroad officials
it's merits will be fully considered
and it is very likely those in author
ity will favor that site.
