The absence of German opera is des-

Verdi's "Rigoletto" was the offering
Yesterday afternoon at the Metropoli-

It was the first "Rigoletto" of the sea-

one.
Those who went to the theatre to
hear Mr.. Caruso sing "Questa guella'

HOLIDAY TOMORROW
Nearly All the States Have Declared
Thursday Day Set Apart to Boom
liberty Loan-Fires Tonight.

Washington, Oct. 23.-Liberty
loan day tomorrow will be state as
we'll as national holiday.
The interest in the day stirred
by a telegram sent out by Secretary
McAdoo. Virtually all governors have
proclaimed the day a holiday. Re-
sponses of residents of the various
states to the proclamations have been
quick and generous. Arrangements
have been made to hold meetings in
all parts of the country to urge the
necessity of buying Liberty loan
bonds.
Thus far not single governor has
declined to proclaim Liberty Day
state holiday in part at least. Some
found it announcement to make the en-
tire day a holiday, so they made
holiday of the afternoon. Arizona and
Oregon will have only half holidays.
Nearly every governor who replied to
the secretary's telegram added few
words of encouragement for the loan.
The signal for the lighting of Liber-
ty fires throughout the country will
be given tonight when Mrs. w. G.
McAdoo, chairman of the Women's
Liberty Loan committee lights a bon
fire at the Washington monument, u.s.
ing for the purpose candle and
broom which once belonged to
Napoleon Bonaparte. Faggots Will
be lighted by Mrs. McAdoo and are of
wood from historic places in many
states, among the relics contributed
by the different states to the fire are
wood from the birth places OF Presi-
dents Wilson, Cleveland, jackson,
Johnson and Poke. Illinois has con-
tributed a piece Of wood from Lin
coins old home.

st. Paul, March 22.-UlteriOr mo-
tives and a move to discredit an "h0ll-
est aggrarian organization" are seen
by Secretary State Schmahl in the in
corporation Of the Minnesota Non
partisan league yesterday, which filed
articles in his office. In statement
today. he explained that if the incor-
poration articles had been submitted to
him first, they would not have been
filed yesterday.
His Statement.
Secretary Schmahl's statement fol-
lows:
~'Had the clerk in this office, who
received the articles Of the Minnesota
Nonpartisan league submitted the same
to ne as he should have done for ap~
proval, they would never have been
filed, except by mandamus proceedings.
'"rhe scope Of the principles enun-
ciated therein is entirely at variance
with the common sense and good judg-
ment of the men representing the in
terests Of Minnesota farmers, who COM
posed the unincorporated organization
of the Farmers NOnpartisan league of
Minnesota, and those stated princi-
pies prove, too clearly. that there is
an organized move on foot to discredit
an honest aggragarin organization.
Names Discredit It.
"The names Of the incOrpOratOrs Of
this already discredited corporation

daily political associates, are sufficient
to indicate the ulterior motives Of the

sponsible for its organization under

Washington, March 22-President
Wilson today began preparing his mes
sage to be delivered before the war
congress-, April >. simultaneously
senator's and representatives OF all
faiths. are wiring in new pledges OF
support in action against Germany.
Among those wiring in their support
are several members of the little group
of wilfull men, charged by President
Wilson with attempting to place the
United States in contemplate light
before the world as Il result OF their
filibustering tactics during the last
congress- Owing to the nature Df
the present situation, it is believed the
fight for organization will be short
in the house. Probably some course
of action will be agreed upon by the
leaders before April ,.
JULY EARLIEST DATE.
While confident that the entrance OF
the United States into the great strug-
Gle will serve either to directly or in
directly materially shorten the war, Of
ficials believed it will be July, Mt least,
before even the first step toward peace
is registered.
The Russian situation in the mean-
time is being closely watched now that
the United States is on the verge of
war. The revolution in Russia dis
posed of many sinister elements. but it
is believed there may still be further
movement planned by the more radi-
cal rcvolutionists. The order for the
arrest of the former cZar created I'M
easiness here. hut full recognition will

soon as its establishment on a firm
foundation is beyond doubt.
Call For Men.
Men, and more men, IS the nations
call today. The nation wants them
and the army will soon need them
under the expected call for volunteers
or compulsory war service. The navy
is doing all it can to speed up prep
aration for hostilities. The army
waits on congress and will heed what
it may say as to the calling OF men.
The navy department is speeding up
its recruiting and is filling up its va
rious reserves. In the influx of men

ficials in charge of the work are graf

Squelch Suggestions.
The state department today squelch-
ed all suggestions of neutral media

States and Germany. Administration
leaders, including Secretary Lansing,

French troops are in contact with the
main German army and what may
prove to be the initial stage of the
greatest battle of history, has opened
before the gates Of Lafere. -
For the first time since the great
German retreat began, patrol and rear
guard fighting has given way to the
thunder of artillery and the clash of
major forces. Germans are making Il
stand on line running north and
south of Lafere. from st. Simon. to the
forests Of Coucy. a distance roughly
estimated at about twenty miles.
Protected Position.
The position selected by the Ger
mans is protected by the Crozat canal
and the Ailette river, tributary of
the Disc. but in this line the French
have driven a great wedge directly in
front Of I.aferc. and reaching to with
in two miles of that important town.
On this wedge is based the hope Of

Situation Obscure.
The situation on the British front
is somewhat more obscure, owing to
the rather vague character of the
British official report. The latest re-
port from London says that General
Haig has pushed ten miles east of
the SOmme at some points. Measur-
ed from Peronne, this would place
the British within four or five miles
from the vital point of St. Quentin,
and this estimates is supported by un-
official dispatches from the front.
Haig Reports Progress.
The German retirement is pivOting
from their positions east of Arras
and in this pivotal region General
Haig reports steady progres, but no

of the advance.
Turks Hard Pushed.
Apparently the spasmodic fighting
in the Champagne and Verdun sec
tions has ceased for the time being, at
least, but important news comes from
another and far distant field of the
world war. The Russians, driving
toward from Persia, have crossed the
Mesopotamian border, at one point
while second army is continuing its
advance from Kermanshah in support
of the British advance from Bagdad.
This means that the retiring Turks
are being menaced from three sides,
and according to Allied military OBJ
servers, are threatened by far greater
disaster than over the loss of Bag
dad.
