W. p. Thurston, now of t.le Center

plant was moved to Hazelton, where
Colonel Thurston edited the Repub-
lican up to a few years ago. When
Braddock found itself without news
paper, J. NJ. Wirth went over to Daw-
son and purchased an outfit, and he
employed w. d. Daggett to run the She
bang and call it the News. Later Mr..
Wirth sold the News to 4. G. McEl-
roy, now of Dawson, and father OF the
present editor. Mr.. McElroy retained
control until 1907. when he sold out
to the late Will Shepard. On his death,
the News went to Mccormick & Nc

publisher of the Emmons county Rec

where as the result of the strategic
developments gained at relatively
small costs, vast tracts of territory
were conquered.
Enemy pressure continues intense
all along the entire front. Before pro-
ceeding wit0 any operations in the
west, the Germans hope to drive the
Italians back to the Adige anticipating
that such reverse would have a very
disintegsating influence throughout
Italy.
1T is apparent that the Germans
have not given up all hope Of bring
ing about a social upheaval in Italy
as they did in Russia, after their vic
torious campaigns in 1915.
"Along the western front, the enc

with a view to keeping the Allied
forces on the alert.
1T would appear that as a fore

an intensive peace propaganda is to

''InfOrmatiOn from various sources
confirms the reports that the Germans
would have the world believe that the
military situation is such that they
are able to dictate terms of peace.
They, therefore, threaten that unless
this dictated peace is accepted by the
Allied powers and ourselves the Ger

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 24.-War and the
LaFollette seaman's law have reduced
shipping on the Great Lakes to such
an extent that there is practically nc
demand for docking privileges at the
Chicago municipal pier, according to
Frank l. Bennett, commissioner OF

"Chicago's shipping has been re-
duced almost entirely to across the
lake traffic" he said today. "Practic
ally all boats which formerly made
the longer trips have been taken ov

smaller boats say that to carry the

ians for a settlement of differences
which have arisen, and it Is also re.
ported that the authorities of the new
Ukrainian government are ready to
accept proposals, looking toward a

for harmony is attributed by the cor.
respondent of The Times to the fact
that the growing dangers of the stu

the same reason, he says, they are be-
lieved to be inclined to modify their
attitude of hostility toward the con
stituent assembly, which is likely to
meet within a week.
Military Activities.
Concurrently with these statements

military activities on the part OF the
