Wa,. Summary

The political situation in Ger
many Is by far the most important
feature OF the present status Of the
war. What little news is allowed
to pass the censor Is fragmentary.
There are rumors thai Emperor
William has abdicated and that
the reichstag has struck, none of
which has been confirmed. A Wire
less dispatch given out by the
British admiralty says that Won
Bethmann- Holweg has resigned
and that DIR. George Michaelis has
been appointed to succeed him.
General Won stein, Prussian
minister Of war. is also reported
to have handed in his resignation.
He represents the faction opposed
to peace without annexations and
indemnities.
The victorious Russians contin-
he their march forward In eastern
Galicia. Noyica having been cap
tured. Reinforcements for the
Anstro Germans have been
brought up to stay the rout of
their army. Two counter attacks
against kaiusz availed them moth
ing.
There is comparatively little ac-
uvity on the entire western front
aside from artillery warfare. An
attack by the Germans against the
british was repulsed. Indications
are that the bitter fight in the
Aisne sector soon will be renewed.

A REGULATES APPEAL.

We give you our service, you shut off our beer, But the stacker can drink till he's full to the ear; We leave our homes to keep you from harm, But the stacker goes by with girl on his arm, And laughs at the soldier, poor un- lucky cuss, You go with the stacker, why ostra- cize us? The stacker rides round in Ford of his own, And charges two bits to pull us to town; We're doing our duty, his liver is white, Yet we are in camp at nine bells each night, While he sticks around as long as he cares, And laughs at the soldler-that is. if he dares. Discipline. we know, is thing that must be, But, honest to goodness, we fail to see, When the soldier drinks nothing but water and pop, Why the drinks of the stacker must also not stop.
