The long expected general offen- sive on the Saloniki front has opened and the grand assault against the forces of the central powers now is in progress in every theatre of the world. General Sarrail is attacking the Bulgarian-Ge forces along the en- tire Greek-Serbian frontier, distance of more than 150 miles.
 Reports from both Berlin and Paris indicate that the entente allies are following the same tactics in the Bal kans that signalized the opening of the great offensive on the Somme. Small bodies of troops are attacking at numerous points along the Bulga- rian line, apparently with the inten- tion of feeling out their opponents po- sitions before the real battle opens. The French claim the capture ot number of villages in the initial phases of the offensive. while Berlin reports the capture of Florina. Greek town, 15 miles southeast of Monastir. from the Serbians. Serbian headquar- ters admits this repulse.
 On the eastern front the Russians have forced their way into the heart of the great mountain barrier be- tween Galicia and the Hungarian The Austrians admit a retirement plains.

There is not a doubt that dozens of
cases will arise from the raid, ranging
from mere violation of the state liquor
law. to federal charges of perjury and
disposition of liquor under martial
law. So far, practically no arrests
have been made, but when they start,

ANOTHER ENTRY IN
OLD PAPER CONTEST

R. j. Lamberson is probably the
owner of the oldest newspaper in
Chickasha. Since all those other pa
pers have been breaking into the lime
light, Mr.. Lamberson instituted a
search and brought to light this par
ticular paper which makes all the bal
ance of the old timers look like two
year-old pil<ers in a race of patriarchs.
The paper which Mr.. Lamberson has
dug from the archives of his strong
box and turned over to the reporters
gentle care is a copy of the Ulster
County Gazette, published at Kings
ton, Ulster county, New York, by Sam
uel Freer and Son. 1t bears date Sat
urday, January 4, 1900. and the front
page carries the announcement that
the issue is "Num. SS. Vol. 2"
The inside pages of the paper, a
four column folio, are draped with in
verted rule and the reading matter on
those pages is devoted mostly to the
story of the death and burial of
George Washington on December H.
1899.
One page of advertising is carried
column of which is composed of le'
gals, notices of sales, etc, and signed
by Peter Ten Broeck, Sheriff.

the stuff already caught would require

Federal officers on the job state that
the whisky that is unclaimed will be
burned or poured out, either of which
would produce some matinee, at that.
