Rochester swelled with pride when
it learned that more than 1875 repre-
sentative country editors had signed
petition or written Mr. Kellogg to be-
come a candidate for United States
senator. 1t was one Of those rare
events in modern times-a genuine
case of the Office seeking the man.
Frank b. Kellogg was raised on a
farm in Viola township near this city
His boyhoOd was similar to that OF
thousands of other farmers boys. 1t
was life Of hard work, many sacri
fees and few pleasures, attending
country school in the winter and do
ing the usual farm work after school.
NEiGHBORS BELIEVE IN HIM.
His old neighbors say that he is still
the same. everyday sort OF a man and
that his manner Is democratic and cor
dial to all.
In 1875 he began to study law in the
office of Fl. A. Eckholdt Of this city.
During the winter he took care of a

Inunications from the eastern front
Indicate that the German forces
are making an effort to resume the in
itiative in order TO check the great
Russian, aggressive movement, and
while they have gained no striking ad.
vantage yet, it is reported that they
are holding the Russians from further
advance, at some parts of the long
line of battle.
Reports from many points along this
tremendous frontier of conflict tell of
the most furious fighting, with import
ant captures of prisoners and guns by
both sides.
Fighting Seesaws
The most severe attack by the Ger
mans was at Grusiatyn, where during a
long engagement the Germans held the
Russian forces, then were driven out
and later returned and retook the con
tested positions. In taking the Ger
man lines the Russians captured 400
prisoners and six machine guns, says
the Petrograd report. Berlin says that
in the German counter 1000 Russians
were made prisoners.
The German attack upon the forces
Of General KurOpatkin were severe at
Rajmiesto, where hand-to-hand fighting
resulted from the TeutOn = efforts to
stem the Russian advance by taking
the aggressive. The Russians repulsed
all the German attacks on their posi-
tons. At Kisselin there were similar
German attacks upon the Russians, with
the same result.
Germans Strike In North r
The Germans are also attacking in
the Smorgan district and near Riga,
making furious attacks on the positions
where the contending armies have faced
one another for months.
1t is believed to be the purpose of
the Germans in making these big ag-
gressive moves TO create diversions
which will prevent General Kuropatkin
from sending achievements to the
| points of contest with the Austrians by
engaging his forces on the defensive.
Vienna reports, from a point not
named, victory over Russian forces,
in which 1900 prisoners were taken.
Advances In the Bokuwina
In the BOkuwina, however, the ,ad-
vance of the Russian forces against
Austrians continues. According to a
Petrograd report, it has become so ra-
pid that General Planners army has
tbeen cut in two while retreating.

offensive campaign in VOlhynia and
Galicia the number of prisoners cap
tured up to June Is is l72,4S4. Humid,
