THE ROAD TO VICTORY.
lPendIeton East Oregonianl

AiehuleIon EasI OreSonlan)
Some people seem to thing that unless
the people keep in constant state of
hysteria over the war then the country
il asleep, has no conception of what is
before it and is in danger of disaster,
There is some justification for the
view because there was time when
people did not realize the magnitude of
the job at hand. But the government
realizes 1t and in the main has taken
steps accordingly. We are doing big
things and preparing to do much more.
As a nation we are not loafing ON the
job. We are rolling up some things for
the kaiser that he does not like at all
aud it is one reason he strives so hard
for foothold looking toward peace.
Among the essential things accom-
plished or IN process of accomplishment
may be included the financial backing
given the allies, the ship building pro-
gram, the construction Of $4,000 air
craft, the raising of our first line army
Of 100000 mon, the draft army system,
food control, new methods of fighting
the submarines and the use of our naval
forces in anti-submarine work.
While we ere doing these things and
arranging to do as much more as is
necessary it is immaterial whether or
net each citizen beats his breast and
runs around in n circle as do the Afri,
can natives when warfare is at hand
II IS better TO cut out the hysioria and
circle running and get down to business.

respect we have the supremacy now
and this supremacy is going to become
more and more marked. Therefore as
time goes by we are going to overcome
the foe aud we are going to make the
world safer than it has been for ma
tions that place their faith in justice
and democracy.

ALLIED WAR COUNCIL
TO Be HELD IN PARIS
How Long Italian Drive Con-
tinues Depends On the
United States

Washington, stpt 3.-Another allied
war council will be held in Paris "to
consider the greatly altered military
situatio Rome cables to Italian Of
fieials here said today.
1t is believed the Russian breakdown
and the need of added supplies that
the Italians may continue their push
against Austria is back of the new
conference.
Under terrific artillery fire, on the
advancing Italian forces, Mont San
Gabrielle and the strongly fortified
positions in the Brestovizza valley are
being isolated from the main Austrian
position. Reinforcements are being
constantly pushed forward to all points,
the Rome cables added.
How long General Cadorna' g great
drive continues depends on munitions
and supplies from the United States.
r." America must remember" one
Italian military officer said here to-
day, 'that Italy is depending almost
entirely upon the United States for
coal, steel and cotton"
Austria already has lost 125,O00 men
and $500 officers on the Carso and
Insonzo fronts, according to Rome
cables claimed to have been based upon
Austrian estimates. These add that
all interior enemy garrisons are being
reduced by two thirds their usual com
plement in rushing reinforcements to
the threatened front.
+ The status of the naval military sit
uation around Trieste remains a great
mystery to military experts here.
British and italian monitors are within
eight kilometers of the Austrian grand
fleet at Po1a. Not only have the mon
itors bottled UP the Austrian fleet, but
they have also trapped several hundred
thousand soldiers in Trieste who are
unable to leave the city because of
the tremendous barrage fire thrown
from the monitors in enveloping the
city's defenses in "a hail of exploding
shells.
1t is thought here that the British
and Italian seamen have managed to
mix the Trieste mine fields on the Aus
trians, This operation either consisted
of carefully sowing the Austrian mines
so that secret passages were blocked or
putting new Italian mines in the secret
passages, or both.

WHITE SOX KEEP LEAD
WON TWO YESTERDAY
Red SOx Only About Breaking
Eyen---FOur and a Half
Games Behind Rivals
(By H. G. FIamiltonl

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
! New York, Sept. 3.-With the tough
end of their campaign just opening up
ahead, the White Sox are playing the
best baseball they SO far have displayed
this season.
Backed with a return to hitting form
by Eddie Collins and Jos jackson, to a
certain extent, the Sox are just pre-
pairing for their final invasion of for
oign territory and their last drive for
9 pennant.
Today the favored men of Chicago
are ahead by four and a half games,
gained when they twice led the Tigers
to a Sunday slaughter while the Red
Sox were resting. Today the westerners
are due to engage the Tigers in an
other two-ply entertainment, while the
Red Sox will be staging morning and
afternoon amusements with the Yam
KEGS as their opponents.
1t was to be expected that the Red
Sox would make the going rough while
they were doing their work at home, but
their gains amounted to almost nothing
against Philadelphia, the western bid
ders for fame hitting just about the
same pace.
The Red Sox are billed for some
more weak opposition right away, but
stronger battles are due for them soon.
Finishing with New York, they will
meet, the Athletics in four game ser
les at Philadelphia and then call on
the Senators for three days. They visit
New York before returning home to
wind up the season.

Exploding Lamp Starts
Big Fire In Mining Town

jerome, Ariz., Sept, IA fire, said
to have originated in the explosion of
a lamp in house occupied by an Aus
trian miner, destroyed more than thirty
buildings here late last night, causing
damage estimated at $4,000. Several
hundred people are homeless, their
houses having been burned together
with all household effects. One Mex
lean girl was badly burned and many
others had narrow escapes while trying
to save treasured articles from the
burning buildings
The fire was controlled by the volun-
teer fire department on the cerge edge
of the business district. Most of the
buildings destroyed were located in the
section of town occupied almost ex-
clusively by Austrian, Slavonian and
Mexican miners.
