Allies Made Great Gain.
rBy Ed. L. Keen, United Press Staff
Correspondent
LONDON. July 1.-The supreme
offensive of the allies began at 7:3C
this morning with one of the greatest
Anglo-French gains on the western
front since the German retreat from
the gates of Paris.
Two hours after British troops
drove forward, they had captured six
teen miles of German forward
trenches north of the Somme, the
war Office announced in a brief bulle
tin.
French troops, on the british right
struck at the same hour. The British
war office announced that the French
made equally satisfactory" gains
leaving to General Joffre the honor OF
announcing the full extent Of the
French success. No statement had
come from the French wa office ear
ly this morning, but it was believe
full report on the French gains
would be made before night.
The British attack was made on a
twenty-mile front north of the Somme
after one of the most terrific four-day
commandments the world has ever
known. With German advanced
trenches firmly held, the British were
pressing forward to the attack al
$50. The latest dispatches to the
war office said the battle was pro
ceeding with the utmost violence on
both British and French fronts. Many
prisoners have been taken, but it is
impossible at this hour 20 obtain any
estimates Of the number captured or
the losses. Fragmentary dispatches

WOULD ISOLATE
CHATHAM COUNTY
JOKER RESOLUTION TO MAKE
CHATHAM CO. SEPARATE
PRINcIPALITY DIES.

ATLANTA, Aug. 24.-Among the
unread unadOpted, unhonored and un-
sung resolutions that died in the dy-
ing hours of the recent session of tn =
Georgia legislature was unique pro-
posal to this effect: Whereas, the
Chatham county Ge asation in the
house and senate has dis inguished
themselves by killing every hill they
advocated and passing every bill they
opposed; and whereas the reverse
English batting average of the Chat
ham delegation inLuded even a bill
to amend the charter of the city of
Savannah with reference to certain
streets and alleys, which was killed
because they wanted it to pass; there
fore,
Be it resolved, that the legislature
submit to the voters of the state a
constitutional amendment removing
Chatham county as part of Georgia
and creating the same as a separate
prineipality to be known as the Ter
ritory of Chatham and
Resolved further, that the Territory
Of Chatham, so created, should be en-
titled to delegates to the general as
sembly, who should be allowed to oc-
cupy seats in the gallery and watch
the proceedings.
The funny part about this resolu.
tion-which went the sad way stated
above-was that Representative Shell
hv Mvriok of Chatbam county drau
it, and handed it to a fellow member
with the reqeust that the latter intro,
duce it.
Representative Myrick had seen the
legislature close the door so many
| times when the Chatham delegation
came driving in with a bill that the
| situation had his goat. 1t occurred tC
| him that a resolution on the above
stated order would make the house
and senate feel rather sorry because
they had kicked the Chatham delega
tion's dog around so numerically
| But in the rush of the closing day
when members were clamoring on al
sides to pass their bills, the Myrici
| resolution got crowded out and was
never read
Chatham's delegation made them
| selves so popular by opposing the pro
hibition laws and conducting a filibus
ter to prevent the house and senate
from voting thereon, and otherwise
endearing themselves with their col
leagues by shrewd legislative manip
ulations, that their advocacy of bill
was generally regarded as certqn
death-eyen their advocacy of 10
cal bill.
