Rome, Aug. 20.-Italy is today wag
ing determined offensive against the
Austrian lines from the Adriatic to
the Alps.
Fighting of great magnitude is in
progress The blow is probably the hard
est the Italians have yet struck, and
early reports tell of initial successes
gained by General Cadorna's troops.
The offensive followed days of ar
tillery preparation and extensive ter
ial activity during which Italian OBJ
servers brought the most valuable in
formation to Italian headquarters.
Assaults were launched ON the Car
so, Isonzo and Julian fronts simultan
eously, the troops working in such con
cert as to weld the three attacks into
one gigantic effort.
The attack was opened on tremend-
Gus scale, the Italian infantry leaving
their trenches on wide front as the
artillery fire was lifted. Word from
headquarters was that the attack was
expected to be the most effective the
Italians have yet attempted.
The total length of the battle line on

fensive centered for the part along the
Isonzo and Goritz south to the Gulf of
Trieste, where the drive was toward
the Austrian seaport of Trieste. Ital-
ian troops penetrated to within four
teen miles of this queen city of the
Adriatic.
At many places along the rocky line
which marks the front the tremendous
Italian fire actually pulverized the
Austrian defenses. Front dispatchts to-
day reported the enemy hurrying up
reserves to back up the weak spots and
flinging their troops into human ram
parts into the Italian advancing waves
1t was at these spots where breaches

TAKING COUNTY OFFICES
OUT or POLITICS
Act to Be Introduced in Legisla-
ture by State Senator Huskey
Is Agreed Upon

Reno Gazette: In case the new
primary election law as agreed upon
recently by various State and coun-
ty officials and other interested par
ties becomes a law as it will be in
troduced by State Senator Huskey,
all county and township offices, in
addition to judicial and school off,
cials, will be taken from the realm
of politics.
The law is being drafted by Sena-
tor Huskey. 1t was agreed at a re-
cent meeting that the primary elec-
ton ballots of each party shall carry
the same candidates for county.
township. judicial and school officers,
and the candidates receiving the high
est vote at the primary election shall
be the only candidate to appear on
the general election ballot for that
effice. Such candidates shall not
have party designation at either the
primary or general elections.
1t was agreed to leave the matter
of adopting a pre-2rimary platform
to members of the various State CEN
tral committees. The various State
chairman are to furnish the Secre-
tary of State with copies of the plat
form 60 days before the primary.
Among other things the proposed
law will provide that there shall be
printing on but one side of the bal
lots and that the fees collected from
candidates by the Secretary Of State
shall be apportioned to the counties
on the basis of the registration at
the last preceding election.
Two methods of nominating pri-
mary candidates are provided for.
one by the candidate himself on pay
ing the required fee to the Secretary
of State and the other by any ten
electors proposing the candidate, who
is given 80 days to accept the nomi-
nation.
Senator Huskey says he will intro
duce the bill on the first or second
day of the session.

Some person or persons proving
about the tanks in the Standard Oil
Company's yard at lwilei shortly after
midnight this morning drew a rifle
shot from the corporal OF the guard
stationed at that place and brought
more soldiers from the Capitol
grounds in quick order
No one was captured, although foot
prints we're traced by officers for
some distance from the tanks. and

proving party has vet been secured
Men of Company X. End Infantry
were on duty after midnight this
morning, and il was a corporal from
this company who fired the shot when
he had called upon the man to halt
and was rewarded with the sound OF
fleeing footsteps.
The shot fired soon had other sol.
diers coming on the run and a rapid
search was made, but nothing as to
the mans identity could be discov-
cred. Lieut.. George NJ. Halloran, ac-
Companied by a small band OF men,

no disturbance was noted, according
TO officers OF the camp, although a
report was about this morning that
German sailors from the refugee
ships had been discovered hiding
about the coal piles at the wharves.
This was absolutely denied today
by officers of the camp. They said
the only sailor picked, up last night
was a carpenter. who had been out
on leave for the day and evidently did
not know of what had happened dur.
ing his absence.
Toward morning a little excitement
occurred at Pier II, when a rowboat
at that place attempted to land at the
wharf. and was told to move on by the
sentry on duty. Those in the boat at
tempted to argue the matter. it is
said, but finally rowed on out into the
stream. Who the parties were was
not determined.

The additional 102 men were I'M

to Germany on account of the block
ade and rendered their services to
the commander of the Geier who re.
enlisted them and issued uniforms.
Possibly he thought II was not me-

Il know ii u be fact that many
German naval reservists who came
here followed such a course. Many
were destitute when they got this far;
there was nothing else for the Geier
commander to do but to take them.

tional men were also from those men

were discharged when the steamers
