Fading Issues.

3 The merging and smothering Of ira;
ditional issues will give us. a new kind.
of campaign this year. Aside from
foreign policies and the policy Of ma,
tional defense, we are likely to hear
little indeed about issues, The battle
will be fought over administration. If
the foreign questions and. prepared
ness could be kept out of the contest,
the country would benefit from the
campaign. For it would lay the bust
ness of government before the people
as they have never had a chance to
behold 1t. If some profit does not flow
out Of the controversy, In the way of
better government, whether the ms
stay in or the outs remain out, we
should be urprised.-Toledo Blade.

Must Give Democrats Credit.

! Another presidential year has rolled
around, and after the hardest Of hard
times, caused for the most part by the
European war, this country is enjoy
ing an uncommonly large degree of
prosperity, and Democratic statesman
ship has had no small credit for the
recovery of business. The federal re-
serve bank system, a Democratic
measure, was hailed by the financial
world as the best constructive legis-
lation that any congress had adopted
In many year.
The Democratic administration
proved in various ways that It was
the friend Of all business interests not
In restraint Of trade, and that Its pol
icy was to help and not hinder "big
business" 1~... !,

AGAINST Extension of income Tax.

The administration will make no
mistake by avoiding any further ex-
tensions of the income--tax operations
If possible. 1t would be better to sell
short-term bonds to meet the extraor-
binary expenses than to drag further
sums from personal or corporate in
comes, because both have been sub
jected to heavy drains since the be-
ginning of the war.
We believe a continuance of the
sugar duty would be far less objec-
tionable than extending the income
tax operations. The people would not
object to bond sale to meet the ex-
traordinary expenses imposed by
strengthening Of the national defenses.

Reference has already been made to
the remarkable vote polled by Presi-

withstanding the fact that there was

interest of electors. This Montana
vote repeats the story Told by Wiscon-
sin, Illinois and other states. The

received 1908 votes to 1920 divided
between Cummins, Roosevelt and
Hughes, whose rivalry might naturally
have been expected to take the Repub-

London, Sept. 26-Combles, key
point of the whole German battle
line from Bapaume to Perronne, has
been captured by the British after
eighteen hours of most furious bat
Ting north of the Somme.
General Haig this afternoon AN
nounced that British troops entered
Combles, overcoming German resis-
tance. The enemy's losses, the official
report said, were severe.
The British victory achieved 'af-
ter three weeks of desperate driving
against the German center, is the
most striking single achievement of
the whole Son,me offensive. 1t. re-
moves one of the last two obstacles
to an Anglo French thrust to squeeze
the Germans, one of the two objec-
tives of the great allied advance.
Trapped by the lightning advance
of both French and British wings in
yesterdays great storming attack, a
German force estimated at from 1000
to 5000 was surrounded at Conlbles
General Haig's men made one Of
the most remarkable advances of the
whole Somme fighting in yesterdays
attack. They stormed the villages OF
Les Bouefs and Morval, with theil
intricate systems of defenses ant
placed their lines northeast of Com.

same hour, completed the capture Of
Rancourt and pushed on to the out
skirts of Fregicourt, east northeast OF
Ccmbles.
The German defenders Of Combles,
for weeks the main point of support
of the whole German line from Bap-
aume to Peronne, were caught IN
moose. 1t is believed here that the
Germans withdrew many of their
heavy guns before yesterdays allied
attack, realizing the hopelessness OF
their position.
The great attack yesterday carried
the British to within easy gun range
of Bapaume, one of the detectives OF
the Somme offensive, for the hrst
time since the drive began. 1t car
ried the French to within striking
distance of Mt. st. Quentin, whose
fall will signal the immediate evacua-
ton of Perronne by the Germans.
The artillery prelude to this sweep
ing advance was, with perhaps one
exception, the most powerful since
the Somme offensive began. The
Germans were blown out of their for
tifcations at Morval, where British
eunners concentrated their fire, and
one German battery after another
was silenced.
Whether the new British "tanks"
figured again in yesterdays allied VIC
tory as they did in the capture OF
Nartinpuich, Flers, and Courcelette,
has not yet been made known in dis
! patches from press headquarters.
