FLOODS HAMPER BRITISH ADVANCE ON THE TIGRIS

London.-The region northwest OF
'yerdun around Haucourt and between
Bethincourt and Hill 265 is still the
scene OF sanguinary encounters be-
tween the French and the Germans.
Continuing their vigorous counter at
tacks on the trenches taken from
them by the Germans between Beth
incourt and Hill 265, he French, with
the use OF hand grenades, have re-
captured additional portions OF their
lost ground and in addition made pro-
gress in communicating trenches.
Around Haucourt the Germans
launched a violent attack against the
French, previously having prepared
the way by a heavy bombardment
lasting several hours. The French
however. through the use OF their cur
tain of fire and rapid fire guns, put
down the attack and forced the Ger
mans to retreat, leaving numerous
dead on the ground as they made their
way back to their trenches.
On the remainder of the front in

On the eastern front there has been
a continuation OF the lively artillery
engagements in the lake region south
of Dvinsk, especially about Lake Ma
rocz, where the Russians succeeded
in occupying portions OF German
trenches. The artillery on both sides
also has been busy around Riga and
Friedrichstadt and in east Galicia.
The Austrians have recaptured from
the Italians a ridge north OF Monte
Cristobel and in the operation made
number OF prisoners and captured
two machine guns. Attacks by the
Italians in large force north of the
Sugana Valley were repulsed, accord

the Primghar Bell, Harding would
not be in it." Similar remarks ar -,
made often enough in certain quar-
tiers to warrant a little attention. The
suggestion that Harding would not be
as strong in twosome as in a three
some is not borne out by the record.
The Sioux City man has twice been
nominated for state Office in competi.
ton with a single opponent, and what
is more, he had no difficulty in being
elected after getting the nominations.
In 1912 Harding was a candidate for
lieutenant governor. His opponent in
the republican primary was G. II. Van
Law, of Marshalltown. Van Law
had made a record in the Legislature
as a progressive and dry. Harding's
legislative record was one of practi-
cal conservatism with special atten-

public service. The Van Law candi-

republican LEADERS who are now

ESTHER CLEVELAND's MISSION.

+ The present war in Europe is peculiar, IN
that so many soldiers of the entente allies have
been made totally blind as the result OF the
campaign involving the use Of noxlous gases
and deadly chemical ammunition supplied by
scientists. For that reason many soldiers who
are recovering from other injuries are leaving
the hospitals afflicted with permanent blind
ness. One Of the great problems that will con-
front the British, French and Russian people,
after the war shall have ended, will be the care
of these blind veterans. 1t is announced that
Miss Esther Cleveland, daughter of the late
President Cleveland, is preparing herself to
teach soldiers who have lost their eyesight.
After completing her course at the Pennsyl-
vania Institute for the Instruction of the Blind
at Philadelphia Miss Cleveland plans to sail
for France and work in the American hospital
at Neuilly. She has already qualified as an ex-
pert nurse. The work assumed by this young
woman is praiseworthy, but it will be arduous
and will involve much self-sacriice. But de-
termination has ever been one of the virtues of
the Cleveland clan, and Miss Esther is doing
what she can to uphold the thorough reputation
that was distinguishing mark in the career
of her father.

RAINEY UP AGAINST 1T.

Henry T. Rainey, member of congress from
the twentieth Illinois district one Of the ''ht
tie army men from the state across the river
will have hard fight to retain his hold as a
representative in Washington Rainey has
hitherto managed to weather the storm of OPP
position that gathered around him after he had
helped engineer the mileage grab that put I'M
earned money into the pockets of congressman,
himself included. He believed himself secure
as holder of a mortgage on the twentieth dis
trct. But things are not SO bright now for Mr..
Rainey. He went into the open against Gov
ernor Dunno and the state administration 5
waterway plan. He deserted his seat in CON
gress to make bitter personal fight against
the governor and the democratic organization
at Springfield. Now he has made his record in
Washington as standing against army plan
that means anything.
There has developed strong movement in
Rainev's balhwick to put the congressman
down and out because Of his attitude on ques-
tons affecting not only the district, but the ma
ton at large. He is chiefly remembered in
KeokuS for his rabid attacks on the Missis-
slppi River Water Power company, Hugh
Cooper and the city itself His bubble of allie
cations was quickly pricked by the pin of facts
and little has been heard Of the matter since.
Should Ralney be defeated for denomination
no tears will be shed in Keokuk
