Strong Russian attacks on the Stok-
hod, carried out in frequently recurrent
waves, flowed back under our artillery,
infantry and machine gun fire, south
of the Stobychva bend in the Stokhod
east Of Kovel and north OF Kiselin. In
heavy hand-to-hand fighting with far
superior enemy our troops were victorious

gasements west of Lutsk were decided in
our favor

position lost east OF Szelvov were COM

I'm the region of Chaulnes the artil-
lery fighting has continued on the Avre
with ftensity. particularly between Lii
hons and the Chaulnes railroad. Here
the Germans attacked our lines and at
one point they penetrated into our adj
vanced position. An immediate counter
attack with the bayonet drove them out.
On the right bank of the River Mouse
Their was fighting part of last night
aroInd the Thaumont works. Here the
encmy gained a further footing. after
numerous attacks. which were repulsed
by us. We are in possession of the i'm
mediate outskirts of this work. which
our artillery is now bombarding with
energy. In the village of Fleury we have
made some progress with hand grenades.
An attack of the enemy upon the
trenches in the Vaux-Chapitre wood has
been repulsed after spirited fighting.
"A German aeroplane over Luneville
has been forced to come to earth in front
of OR lines. French artillery destroyed
the machine on the ground.
"On the Somme front French aviators
have delivered numerous aerial attacks.
Six German machines, seriously damaged
descended within their lines. A captive
balloon of the enemy was destroyed on
the night of August S-9. One of our avia-
tors has thrown down projectiles on the
powder factory at Rottweil- he-Neck-
ar. One hundred and fifty kilos $3.50
pounds) of explosives were thrown down
on the factory buildings and two very
extensive fires and several explosions
were observed. This machine left at $3.50
p. m. and was back from its trip at
11:55 p. M, having accomplished at night
raid over distance of S50 kilometres
CIT miles,. which was rendered particu-
larly difficult by the necessity of, going
over the vosges mountains and the Black
forest
Furthermore. on the night of August
SO. other French aeroplanes threw down
Audun-Le-R Roman, Longuyon and Mont
NEEDY, and IS shells upon the railroad
line at Terguier and the station at La
Fere."
Tonight's statement reads:
North of the Somme we completely
reoccupied a trench north of the Hem
wood, where the enemy had taken foot.
We took about 80 prisoners in the course
of this action. Our progress continues
in the region north of the Hem wood,
where spirited engagement occurred,
the advantage being on our side.
ION the right bank of the Mouse there
was great artillery activity in the sectors
of Thiaumont, Fleury. Vaux-Chapitre and
Chenois. No infantry action took place.
THE day was relatively calm on the
rest of the front.
THE French aeroplane which lombard
ed the powder mill at Rottwei-on-the-
Ncckar mentioned in the morning conf
munication) was manned by Adjutants
Baron and Emmenuelli."

VOTE "Yes" ON THIS ONE

The hard coal miners it is said
are likely to 90 on a strike. Some
time ago it was announced that
there would he no summer reduc-
ton in coal prices such as general
" applies. With strike on top
of this it is easy to be seen where
South Dakotans will land when
the coal man gets them next fall.
This OUGHT to be another boost for
the constitutional amendment to
be submitted this fall providing
for giving the state authority to
develop the Ignite coal fields of
South Dakota. Every voter should
keep this in mind-especially the
fellow who has to buy coal-and
vote yes next fall.

RURAL CErn!T nsTEN iTINE

Hon. Peter NorbecS. republican
candidate for governor at the May
primary, being interviewed by the
Sioux Falls Fress, among other
things said,
II am thoroughly convinced that
an adequate rural credit system
would play an important part in
the development of agriculture. or
get new farmers is not the first
need. To make conditions more ia
vora BILE for those we already have is
far more imperative and this can
be more speealy accomplished when
it is poss be for them u set money

Touching upon the subject of
state finances the lieutenant govern
or said he felt that a comparatively
new state such as South Dakota de-
manded a broad gauged policy and
a businesslike administration in ev
cry respect and that the legislature
acted wisely in retrenchng on ex
penses resulting in a lowering of ap-
preparations by over $50, 900, and
speaking further upon the matter oil
finances, said:
The other candidate has re-
vamped his features used in the two
former unsuccessful! campaigns and
is making an active canvass Of the
state but seems to be meeting with
but little encouragement. He claims
that there has been great increase
in state expenditures and this in the
face of published reports of State
Auditor H. B. Anderson and State
Historian Doane Robinson, both OF
which show remarkable reduction
and a consistent lowering of the pei
capita state tax until for 1915 it is
but $2.2S. He further says there
are 600 useless state officials tina,
he would dispense with and thus
save to the state 100000 per year

r. 0. Richards is certainly right
in his primary election law idea,
in making principles instead of
persons the issue. in providing for
abolition of the official spoils sys-
tenn. in providing for public Joint
debates. SO that the people can
hear both sides before they vo.e.
in providing for minority and ma
jority representation to foster
lineup on the ballot under prin-
ciple so the people can see what
they vote fer, as we'll as TO estab-
lish majority rule. The primary
election law i'm government is like
the first corn row in corn field.

can straighten what has to follow >
Richards is right-vote "yes'

next November election. and vote
