COALITION ONLY HOPE.
kerensky Pleads for Union Of Forces
to Save Russia.

Petrograd.--Whena a committee from
the Democratic congress visited Pre-
mier Kerensky on Saturday he ad-
dressed the committeeman as fol-
lows:
"The growth of anarchy, the condi-
ton of political ruin, which confronts
the country, the extravagant demands
of various groups and the strivings in
certain quarters to restore the former
regime, force a recognition of the ne
cessity of union and coalition. Only
the union of the bourgeois and demo-
cratic elements can save the country"
Minister of Foreign Affairs Terest-
chenko pleaded for a reconstruction of
the nations forces so that "the dele
gates who will participate in the Paris
conference October 10 may point out
to the allies that our fighting force
has been renewed and that our boast
of strength is no myth"

AGAINST GERMANY
CONGRESS VOTES TO SEVER DIP
LOMATlC AND COMMERCIAL RE-
lATiONS WITH TEUTONS.
Passports Issued to German Diplomat
ic and Consular Officials and All
Uruguayan Officials in Germany
Ordered Home.

ontevideo.--Uruguay's break with
Germany came to pass early Sunday
morning after an all-night session OF
the congress. 1t was greeted by out
bursts of patriotic fervor from the pub
lie and press throughout the republic.
The measure adopted by the joint
session of the senate and house au-
thorizes President Viera Of Uuruguay:
Ito break diplomatic and com
mercial relations with the German EN-
pire.
2-To adopt measures to facilitate
navigation, in cooperation with the
friendly nations, and measures to as
sure importation and expectation.
The president acted promptly on
the first point and took immediate
steps toward action on the second. In
speech to congress he made it clear
that Uruguay enters the war on the
side of the United States not because
of any particular grievance, but h
align itself with the cause of liberty
and justice.

the German diplomatic and consular
officials. Uruguay gives guarantees
for their personal safety until they
are out of the country At the same

guayan officials of Germany. These
steps were decided upon 1T meeting
of the president with the cabinet.

GREAT MASSES or STEEL BLAST
ING GERMAN POINTS MARKED
OUT FOR CAPTURE.
tn Army Of the German Crown Prince
Again Has Endeavored to Dent the
French Line, But Again
Has Failed.

London. - Through squalls Of rain
and under low-hanging clouds, Field
Marshal Haig is blazing the way with
his artillery for another raid into the
German line In Flanders.
Since the great advance Of the mid
week the British infantry has kept to
the trenches and shell craters, except
where forays were called for to re-
align the new front or cOunter-attacks
were necessary to hold back weak Ger
man attempts to recapture lost ter
rain. But the big guns never ceased
their activity, and day in and day out
great masses of steel have been blast
ing the German points which are map
ped out for capture when the new
drive is launched.
Particularly heavy Is the lombard
ment in the region running from
Langemarck to Zonnebeke, and es-
pecially to the east of the latter town,
where the wedge Of the British has
been pushed in almost within striking
distance of the Ostend-Lille road.
When the new offensive will be
sprung cannot be predicted. Several
days may elapse before Haig has suf-
ficiently pounded the Germans to war
rant sending his men across No Mans
land or the process Of demolition al
ready may have advanced to the point
where the first gray streaks Of dawn
Of tomorrow may see it's commence

The army OF the German crown

PAYS TRIBUTE TO PATRIOTISM.
Secretary Lane Inspired by Loyal
Spirit of Utahns.

Salt Lake City.-After witnessing a
Utah's patriotic day and giving impe-
tus to the drive for subscriptions to
the second Liberty loan, Franklin X.
Lane, secretary of the interior of the
United States, paid high tribute to
the patriotism and true American spir-
address before an audience of 10000
persons that packed the historic Nor
mon tabernacle to its doors. Secre-
tary Lane said
II have seen inspiring sights before,
but never before has one so touched
my heart as did your magnificent mil
itary parade which l witnessed on the
streets of Salt Lake. Oh how l wish
President Wilson himself could have
seen it.
1.-The one thing that struck me most
forcibly in your parade was how your
boys represented the true spirit of
America in the fact that the million
aires son marched side by side with
the son of the farmer, all for the one
cause OF liberty and right. Such is
the spirit of America which, II it can
be extended throughout the world
will make such calamities as this
war impossible In the future.
I'VE saw the streets OF Salt Lake
lined with the men and women who
are giving their sons In response tt
the call of war and | saw no tears
only smiles on the faces OF those who
are making the greatest sacrifice thai
can be made and making Ii gladly fol-
the sake Of liberty
