 LAWS AS REMEDY

The American commissioners sub mitted a list of border raids that had been compiled by the war department The Mexican commissioners countered by the presentation of another list specifying instances where soldiers and civilians had crossed the boundary into Mexico. This list also contained instances where Mexican nationals were said to have lost their lives and property on American soil.
 It was said that today's session was the first of a series in which it was expected the various suggested forms of cooperation between the two gov ernments in preventing border disturb ances would be considered.
 More rapid progress in the direction of an agreement on some plan of bor- der control is expected to be made now. That an immediate agreement is improbable, however, was indicated by the announcement that the com missioners have reservations at a ho- tel in Atlantic City, N J., where the Two more sessions will be held here but without Luis Cabrera, head of the Mexican commission. Business in Boston made it necessary for -him to go there late today.

 The capture of Thiepval by the British and of Combles by the con- bined Anglo-Frencn forces, announced in the latest official communications, is regarded here as the most import ant success of the western frunr since the opening of the grand offensive.
 The fall of Combles was expected For weeks it has been in process of encirclement by the British and French. But the capture of ThlepvaI which was announced too late for comment in the papers. has proved a genuine surprise, because it has been a stumbling block in the advance of the British left almost since the be- ginning of the offensive July l when a check at Gcmmecourt was suffered

COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo, Sept 26.-All four national candidates of the republican and democratic parties were heatedly arraigned for their atti- tlde on the liquor question by j.

 Hanly flayed Wilson for his failure to state whether the California vets were representing him correctly as being opposed to prohibition declared that as a result of having obtained the repeal of the local option laws in In diana, Vice President Marshall has blood on his hands," assailed Hughes for not coming to the aid of the dry forces and urged Coloradoans to de- mand an expression from Fairbanks on the liquor question when he enters the state tomorrow. Most of Hanly's fire was directed at Wilson in connec- ton with the presidents declaration at Baltimore yesterday that this nations timidity in the face of foreign compe- tition was all that he ever had been ashamed of in America
 Here we have it at last from the presidents own lips" Hanly declared at Trinidad He is not ashamed of the alcohol liquor traffic with it's de- bauchery. it's intimidation, it's crime and its civic corruption. and he is not ashamed of the partnership between the government at Washington and this, the greatest racial evil that ever cursed a nation or damned people.
 And the democratic candidate for vice president is even worse. As gov ernOr of Indiana he sent an executive message to the general assembly, i'm pioring it to repeal the county local option law under which seventy-two counties out of the ninety-two in the state had voted dry and eliminated B. 900 saloons, on the ground that as gov ernor of the state he was unable to enforce the law.
 Upon his recommendation the law was repealed and 1000 licensed saloons returned to the state. There is blood on his hands. damned spot that will not out"

McCombs refused to accept a second term as chairman of the democratic national committee MT. Wilson will do everything possible to secure MT. McCombs election.
 In spite of the determination of Mr. Wilson to make only non-political speeches on his forthcoming trips away from Shadow Lawn, it appears probable tonight that he would find means for getting his views on par tisan questions before the country. His addresses here will be more on I political character than those in other places.
 Elaborate arrangements are being made to turn the reception of the president Saturday to members of young mems democratic clubs into a big political event. It will be the first time since his notification speech that the president has ad- dressed a purely democratic audience. Up to the present MT.
