town. Actually, the Allied operation con
sists in a process of gnawng right across
the rear of the German positions, cutting
one after another of the roads and rail
road upon which they depend.
One interesting and important conse-
quence of this gnawing process Is that as
il proceeds it lengthens the German line.
Instead of a comparatively straight front,
their line takes the form of a concave
front. deepening all the time as the
Allies drive more and more into 1t. This
extension of the lines requires more men
10 defend them, and the lines themselves, IN
many cases emergency trenches, are
weaker than the original front. Thus, to-
dav the German lines in the Peronne
sector are probably a dozen or fifteen
miles longer than they were at the start.
1t is necessary to emphasize the fact
that the Germans in the Noyon "eltow''
are not yet il; any immediate danger OF
envelopment. The neck Of their salient
between Peronne and the Disc east of st.
Quentin. is still twenty-five miles wide; it
was more than thirty at the start. But
some of the roads have been actually cut,
ard for five miles beyond the present front
the roads are under fire of the Allied guns
and cannot be used without grave peril.
This means growing congestion IN the
neck of the saliert II means correspond
ing difficulty in handling munitions and
supplies. and it forecasts a day when the
further advance of the Allies, an advance
Of not more than ten miles at the most,
will make the evacuation OF this Noyon
"elbow" inevitable.
May Hang Yet.
The chances of an ultimate development
of the Germans in the Noyon salient. un-
less there is an actual piercing of the lines
about Peronne and a sudden thrush Of a
huge French attacking force, are not very
great. A year ago the Russian retreat
demonstrated the extreme difficulty Of en-
veloping large forces by similar opera
tions. It remains perfectly possible for
the Germans to hang on for some weeks
vet if the Allies do not greatly increase
their rate Of advance. But even their
present rate of advance cannot fail to
make the Noyon salient untenabe before
winter.
The same is true of the smaller Bapaume
salient, north of Peronne. This is a
much worse situation now than the south
ern position of Noyon. Bapaume Is under
British fire, and if the British are able
presently to take Combles and bring their
front east on a level with the French, it
will no longer be possible for the Germans
to use Bapaume as centre for supplying
their troops between Arras and Peronne.
Now. the advances of the British and the
French in the past few days, the diminish
ing intensity Of German counter attacks
and the growing frankness Of Berlin Of

For Justice of the Peace.

Mr.. w. F. Brewer has filed as
a republican candidate for the
position of justice of the peace
for WinsloW precinct, and he is
entitled to the support of all re-
publicans who believe in strict
administration of the law for a
cleaner and better city. Mr..
Brewer has resided in the city
for a number of years, his reputa-
ton as a moral upright citizen is
above reproach, and under his
administration the duties of that
office will be discharged in a fair
and impartial manner. Mr.. A. H.
Hansen, the present incumbent,
who has also filed for the posi-
ton, is not entitled to republican
support in the primary for the
reason that he openly boasts that
if he is not nominated he expects
to file his petition as an indepen-
dent candidate at the election,
and entertaining these views he
should be given the opportunity
to make an independent race.
Republicans should vote for only
such men as are willing to abide
by the result of the primary
election.

In presenting "The Moral
Fabric" :" the Triangle-Kay Bee
feature starring Frank Mills,
talented and experienced actor of
the speaking stage, Producer
Thomas H. Ince claims to offer a
subject of absorbing interest and
a most unusual plot. The theme
of the story is the ssfallacy of the
free love" theory, and the play
is a blow at the basic structure
of the principle which the ad-
vocates of the free love" prop
aganda profess to expound.
The drama is from the pen of
c.. Gurdner Sullivan, of the Ince
staff of photo playwrights. He
presents a woman who is deceiv-
ed by the wiles of a rich young
Don Juan and her husband, a
man of few words, but a deep
thinker. About this trio Sullivan
has conceived plot that causes
the two weaker characters to
complete change, and
which presents the fallacies of
their theory as they would work
out in actual practice.
The husband, of course, is the
apex about which the action
revolves. This part. played by
Mills, is said to be handled by
that artist in a mastery manner.
Sulliyan conceived the idea of
the theme for his story after at
tending a lecture given by a
free thinkers - organization.

Petrograd, May 12.-The press con-

Columbus, N. NJ, May 12.-Reports
unyerified at military headquarters
that American troops are being with
drawn from San Antonio, Mexico, and

porting this contention is the trans

concentrated at San Antonio, back 20
miles to Namiquipa.
