Russia's Asia Minor Advance.

The developments in the Russian
campaign in Asia Minor confirm the
belief that very severe blow has
been inflicted upon the Turco-Teu-
tonic cause by the capture of Erze-
rum. The Russians did not halt af-
ter taking Erzerum, but pressed on
to the west, the north and the south
in a fan shaped formation, aiming
at Trebizond on the shore of the
Black Sea and also for Bitlis near
the western coast of Lake Van,
southeast of Erzerum. Their object
is apparently to drive the Turks
westward, and if possible to out
flank them in pursuit to cut off the
detachments that have been operat-
ing in the south in the Euphrates
and Tigris valleys against the Brit
ish Mesopotamian expedition.
In this westward advance of the
Russians they will have the advan-
tage of support and supplies from
their naval forces on the Black Sea.
In effect, their base of supplies will
he a floating one, following their
right flank as the army progresses,
if it succeeds in advancing contlnu-
ously toward Constantinople. The
chief disadvantage in this plan IS
that a high mountain range sKlrts
the shore of the Black Sea practical
lv continuously from the Transcau-
casus boundary to the Bosporus, rem
dering Transportation inland from
tho sea somewhat troublesome. Per-
hans offsetting this difficulty is the
fact that the Russians have the SYM
nathv of the native population, the
Armenians already having given eVl-
dences Of decided hostility to the
Turks. cutting off stragglers and
offering themselves to the RUSSIAN
forces for any service.
A strict censorship is evident IN
the dispatches from Constantlnople'
which is described in some fugitive
reports as being in a state OF con-
starvation over the Russian advance.
Unless the Turkish army can be ral-
lied in a strong position there IS no
prospect of a failure of the Russians
to press on to the Bosporus. Inls is
the first opportunity the Russian
army has had to demonstrate us
ability to maintain a continuous OIL
fensive since the great drive through
Galicia. which was more than oHset
bv the subsequent retreat that set
the Teutonic lines we'll inside OF Rus
sian territory. The excuse ohereo
for that retreat was that the Rus
sian munitions supply was exhausted
but subsequently it has been assert
od that this shortage has been made
good and that the Russian troops
now have an abundance of ammunl-
tion At their present rate OF
nrogress thev will bring Turkey to a
most critical situation within a
month. and it is inevitable that TINS
will have a vital bearing upon the
major campaign in Europe.-Wash-

GLENDALE SPRING WATER.
Helpful Qualities Attested by Bam'

Mr.. Editor:-I wish, unsolicited
and unremunerated, to call attention
TO one of natures greatest and rich
est gifts to Bamberg county. Moth
ing can surpass good water and plen-
tv of it-this is found at Glendale
Spring. This fountain of health and
blessing long flowed to waste, day
and night, but our people have dis
covered it's value. The telephone
company has adopted it for the use
of it's employees; the water wagon
hauls it regularly into Bamberg;
while many of our citizens haul it for
themselves; and bottles are oelng
seen in evidence at the depot, to De
shipped to other points. We need no
longer buy and ship in water, but lit
tie. if any better than Glendale
Spring. Strange that distance lends
50 much enchantment to some peo-
n1e, I give below the analysis OF

Takes Tumble From Flag Pole on
White House.

Washington, March 1O.-An eagle,
which ornamented the top Of the flag
pole on the white house was found
to have fallen from its perch this
morning, and workmen were engaged
for hours in replacing it in its former
dominating position. The general
comment of passersby was that the
eagle could not stand the course of
affairs on the Mexican border and was
trying to give a demonstration of it's
feelings where such a demonstration
would do the most good.

salty FIRST" An
IGNOBLE SIGN
Says An American Clergyman. Who
Commands a Battalion in the
British Army

London, Nov. 14.-Lieutenant Col
onel F. C. Bullock, of New York state,
the only clergyman in the world to
command battalion of troops, is now
in London, where, without dofhng his
khaki, he has been preaching in a
Unitarian church. He is in command
of one of the American Legion bat
talions raised in Canada. Altogether
there are FIVE battalions of American
citizens raised in Canada and attach
ed to the Canadian forces. In the
first, 825 men recruited and twenty
five of the forty-eigI1t states in the
Union were represented.
In answer to a question why he, an
American minister, had joined the
British army as a combatant, the col
onel said:
81 hold it is wrong to tell another
man to go out and shoot without you
go and do likewise The men / have
the privilege of commanding, and
more, came voluntarily. They realiz-
ed, as / did, that this was war Of
principles, not of nations, and that
the United States was affected by the
outcome just as much as the allied ma
tions.
sIt was a question whether the
mailed fist should rule civilization or
whether the principle Of the Man
whose fists were nailed to the cross
should prevail But the sinking Of
the Lusitania was the casting Of the
die. Then / announced I had furied
my flag, that it never again should
be caressed by the breezes until the
country which had been so long my
home had declared itself against such
a damnable outrage.
IT then took a commission and
combatant rank and helped to raise a
battalion of Americans to fight. That
one battalion grew into eight, added
the colonel with satisfied smile.
"In America" he continued, athere
is an ubiquitous sign, Safety First
There is no more ignobIe cry unless
it be TO proud to fight, as homer
comes before safety. Righteousness
and justice take precedence when It
comes to question Of pride and fight
ing"

Wilson's Offer of Mediation Will
Be Welcomed
OPTIMISTIC OPINION EXPRESSED TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BY COUNT ALBERT APPOINT
ASSOCIATED Press)

Berlin, Nov. 13 delayed The
beginning of peace negotiations may,
perhaps, be expected with fair pros
poets of success during the coming
winter, in the opinion of Count Albert
Apponyi, the Hungarian leader and
former Hungarian premier. This
opinion was expressed in an interview
with an Associated Press correspond
ent.
Negotiations cannot be expected
until the Teutonic Rumanian cam
paign is finished, he said. He believ-
ed that Rumania would be crushed
soon. Count Apponyi declared the
statesmen of opposing camps were
drawing together. The British no
longer talk of crushing Germany, and
the agitation for annexation in Ger
many is dying out.
Count Apponyi saw no reason why
neutral mediation shouldn't be well
coined at the proper moment and
knew no reason why President Will
son shouldn't be the intermediary.

Most of our people will remember
the soap factory, which began bnsi-

months ago, but after making few
runs of soap suspended operations.
Mr.. w. L. Colbert, now county tax
collector, has leased the plant, and on
laying down the cares of his public
office on the first of the year, will put
the factory in operation again.
The plant was well built and equip
ped with up to date machinery, and
during the short time it was operated
turned out good brand of soap. Mr.
Colbert is an excellent business man,
and will make the venture a success
if anyone can. 1t is an enterprise
that Ocala should heartily support,
and the Star hopes that our business
men will make a memorandum right
now to give it all the business they
can.

JOSEPHINE ANDERSON

Many of our people will be grieved
to know that Josephine Anderson, who
since early childhood served us faith
fully as nurse, cook and housemaid,
died Monday night at nine o'clock at
her home in Ocala and was buried
this morning. The remains were fol-
lowed to their last resting place by
sorrowing relatives and friends. She
was born at Crystal River in 1877 and
moved with her mother, Amanda
Harmon and family to 0cala when
quite a child. She was married to
Lee Anderson at the age of nineteen.
She has faithfully devoted her care
and attention to her growing family,
training them in the ways of indus
try and service. She was true to her
religious principles to the point of sac
rifice and firmly followed the straight
and narrow path of love and duty,
through all the years of her life. Fail
ing health required her to take the
two older girls from school while she
bravely fought the good fight and
complained not.
Verify her children rise up and call
her blessed. Her church and family
viii mourn her; her race viii miss her
and the loyal white friends viii find
none to take her place. Their visits,
flowers and words of sympathy bore
testimony to the worth of this good
colored woman. We sincerely wish
there were more like her. Let us do
all in our power to help the six
motherless children left in desolate
home. Mrs. Geo. W. Martin.
