East of the Mouse the Gcrmaus attacked trenches south of brLaulncn, village, but were beaten back with considerable losses. There was violent bombardment of Douau- i,olt and Vaux.
 The German general offensive against Vedun begun Sunday over 13-mle front is being restricted now to two-mile front west of the Mouse. Along these 3,500 yards of trenches the French thus far not only have barred a further advance of the Teu- tons on the west bank e.s the river but atso have screened their artillery which is raking every German advaa- Ce east or the r1Ver.
 Dead Mans Hill is Goal.
 The object of the present operations is the now historical Morte Homme or Dead Mans Hill which bars the Germans to further advance west o1 the river The operations began yes ! terday when two German divisions were launched from Bethincourt and Haucourt against Hill BOA on the lief, of Dead Mans Hill, while two divis- ions advanced toward Hill 295, be- tween Dead Mans Hill and Cumieres
 The Germans advanced in serried ranks and their proportionate losses ar" reported to have been quite as great The fighting lasted all after noon, with alternate advances and re coils. At the end of the day, the pos jtions were on the whole unchanged Germans at Foot of Hill. The Germans are at the foct of Hill 2"3. while the French hold the slope and the summit, which are solidly for tilted. From these positions the Frcncl. poured stringing fire into the dense ranks of the Germans ad- vancing over ground where, in spots they wore fully exposed to both mach ;ma gan fire and the fire of three-inch g',ns.
 The repeated attacks there were thrawn back before they reached the harhcd wire defenses and there was the same result generally in the at lacks against hill BOA.
 Tie German regiment that pene- tra!ed 500 yards of French trenches on the northeastern slope of Dead Man's Hill, several times was driven hack to cover when attempting to at tack the poition higher up. They never got mere than one hundred yards from their trench and they lost heavily during the day.

He has for the past two years turned
all his laboratory knowledge to the

worked out a process of "complcte ir-

the question as to how much longer
the patience of the American people
will permit itself to be tried by that
organized outlawry, the I. W. w. The
trouble in the state of Washington is
not Of spontaneous origin. 1t started
some months ago, when l. w. w. speak
ers were expelled from Everett be-
cause of their lawleSs methods. Sever
al times since then they have ATTEMPT
ed to operate in the town, but each
time they were given to understand
that their room was more acceptable
than their company. That Sunday S
bloodshed was premeditated is evident
from the fact that the |. w. w. invad-
ers on board the Verona were armed to
the teeth; and generalization is still
further shown by the call issued last
week IN the official organ of the I. w.
w. for ''all fOot-loOse rebels in the
West to center their attention upon
Everett since ''the fight must be
won as the whole future of the Indus

This pronunciamento having come to
his attention, Sheriff McRae did his
manifest duty. He summoned a posse
and went to the dock to meet the
steamer on which the invaders were to
arrive, and on it's arrival he warned its
people against attempting to land At
an apparent signal from the spokesman
OF the visitors, fire was opened from
the vessel-and Sheriff McRae was the
first to fall. One of his deputies, for
mer sheriff of the county, is among the
dead. Hundreds of men and women are
under arrest, and we shall soon see how
the great state of Washington deals
with outlaws and murderers.
1t IS high time that the I. w. w. be
given an impressive object lesson in the
power and majesty of the law. Every
individual triumph over law is an en-
enlargement for them to push their
mischievous methods still further. Their
obvious aim is to terrorize this country
INTO submission to their indefensible
methods. The time to convince them
OF the folly of any such expectation on
their part is NOW. Every resource of

ton, II necessary, should be invoked to

1t is not surprising that the Germans
have abandoned Fort Vaux ON the Yer
dun front. At the time of the recent
French drive in that region, when the
Germans gave up considerable ground,
Fort Naux became the object of
an enveloping movement that has since
grown in Importance. The fort had be-
come so nearly surrounded that a hasty
escape or surrender seemed to be the
only outcome. The Germans decided
that it was time to escape, and they
took the night for their escape, doing,
of course, all the damage to the fort
they could before they deserted it.

Discussing the coal situation, the Blacl,
Diamond says: Notwithstanding record
rotations in all markets, production has
OF increased perceptibly. In this connec-
ion it is interesting to note that mining
operations in the Pittsburgh district at the
resent time are estimated at only GO per
ent as compared with % per cent on the
corresponding date last year. This is char
acteristic of the conditions prevailing in
il mining centers. The most strenuous
efforts to increase outputs spurred on by
the urgent needs of the market, have met
with little success. due to the shortage of
ears and the scarcity of mine labor The
shortage of supply occurs at time of
maximum consumption for steam making
and domestic uses, and when little or no
progress has been made in accommodating
stocks against the season of hampered
transportation and distribution The state
ments OF shipments of anthracite, as com
piled by the anthracite bureau of informa-
ton at Wilkes Barre, show that from
April to September 80 the production in
1916 was 100000 tons less than in the
corresponding months of 1915. This de-
crease has been due almost entirely to the
shortage in the labor supply in the anthra-
cite region"

A S22,O0O,0OG BRIDGE.

California has been familiar with
great undertakings for so long that
things which in other regions would be
considered memorable arc quite COM
monplace there. But Just now there is
under way in that state an enterprise
which must appeal to the imagination
even of those who have been stated
with wonders. Briefly the biggest
bridge in the world is to be constructed
between San Francisco and Oak
land. The cost of this monster bridge
is expected to be 500, 100000 and it will
be five and half miles in length. Up
on it will be three roadways and four
railroad tracks. 1t will consist of six
teen spans, two of which will be high
enough to allow the passage of any
ship. The relief which this will fur
nish to the five ferry systems now in
operation between these cities is not
difficult of comprehension. Time was
when such a proposition would have
been considered dream, but of late
years so many dreams of this character
have been coming true that the boldest
departures from the ordinary are given
respectful consideration. So, now that
it is suggested, We take the building of
this bridge as matter of course.
