GROWING AWAY FROM OLD FAC
TIONAL EEIIDS

Most of the American people are
getting entirely away from yellow
dog" politics. The spirit of tolerance
and fairness is growing in both
religious and secular lines.
OF course there are some to Assert
that this change is chargeable chiefly
to a general loss of Loyalty or a
waning of interest, to growing
indifference to public duties and to
the affairs of the church; but, allow
ing for serious losses along these
lines, there is no doubt that even the
most loyal members of political par
ties and the most devoted church
adherents have come to be more
considerable, more friendly toward
each other, and more sympathetic
toward members of other parties or
denominations.
Issues have been crossed and crisis
crossed until a great many partially
informed voters would now be unable
to determine what parties they really
belong to but for the party names
which they bear. This has really
been true to some extent for long |
time; but the fact has been made
more conspicuous and impressive be-
cause of changes on the tariff issue,
the money issue, social questions; and
because other bones of campaign con-
tention have undergone notable
changes creating new lines of party
cleavage, or have been reduced in
by the grave issues Gre
ated by the war and the changing

had the wrong man. Detective Tom

mander of the fort then set fire to two
carloads of straw inside the structure,
and the Germans, convinced that their
shells had started the fire and that
they could easily take the place, ad-
vanced in close formation. The French
suddenly brought their machine guns
to bear with a deadly fire and the
bodies of 1000 Germans were said to

! War at Decisive Stage. Claim.
A dispatch from London yesterday
said that Major General Sir Francis
Lloyd, general officer commanding the
/ London district, in a speech at the
opening of a military building, de-
clared that the battle before Verdun
was of momentous importance to Great
Britain as well as to France.
DO you realize" he asked, that a
| fight is now going on for a passage to
Paris? The result will hang in the
balance until the Teuton is driven
back, as | have great confidence he
will be. But if our ally's line is pierre
ed, the way will be open to the French
capital, and if that capital is reached,
new complexion would be put on the
whole face of the war and on our
lives and being. A German success
on the French front would not merely
mean the loss of Paris but would en-
danger London"
French Officials Undisturbed.
Paris, Feb. 26. (5:45 a. m )-"Seri-
Gus, but not disquieting" is the COM
mon phrase which is used today in of,
fetal and parliamentary circles re-
garding the progress of the Germans
in their attack against Verdun. I'm
affected by the snowstorm, the Ger
mans hammered away all day Friday
at the French line which, although I'M
broken at the end of the sixth day of
battle, was, however, again rectified
as a measure of prudence, the left
wing being drawn in to Champneu-
vile and the right being brought back
a little south of Ornes. The new front,
barely three miles in length, extends
along the heights, offering every ad-
vantage for defense and forming one
of the most formidable obstacles be- |
fore the entrenched camp of Verdun. !
Called BlOOdiest Battle of War.
1t is in this narrow space that the |
crown prince is hurting his masses.
Military observers here express the |
belief that the counter offensive will be |
launched from this line at a decisive
moment and will drive back across

dead comrades, the battalions which |
