WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES ON
TIE FRENCH FRONT, May eli
(From Il Staff Correspondent of the
Associated Press. )-While the Ger
mans were throwing masses Of men
againts the French positions along the
Observation-Disclosures. only TO suffer de-
feat with terrific losses. the French
last night effected an attack in the
MoronyilliercS section and drove the
Germans from SOME of their strongest
positions. Tie French plans were
brilliantly conceived and executed
without Il hitch. Their objective was
most difficult; hilly range filled with
deep cavernS affording shelter TO hun
drcds of men and machine guns, but
the French infantry StOrmed the
heights Of Casqur and Teton. respcc-
lively 7S6 and I5i feet in height. and
carried them with Il rush while other
columns captured the trenches lining
The northern slopes of Mount Carnil-
let.
The result Of these operations gives
the French Il commanding view on
their left. The value placed on the
possession Of these hills is shown by
the violence Of the German counter
attacks in the course OF The early
morning. which everywhere broke
down. They left more than 500 rris-
onrrS in the hands of the French,
while hundreds Of bodies of Germans
: strew the ground and lie in the cav
nrnOus shelters.

WANTS CONGRESS TO
GO AFTER THE DOGS
HEAVY TAX WOULD MEAN MORE
REVENUE, MORE WOOL AND
MORE FOOD.
Suggestion Made by General Manager
ketchun Of Commercial AS
ISOLATION Is Appauded.

At d meeting Of commercial aSSo-
citation secretaries of Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia, held yester-
day in Pittsburgh, General Manager
, Charles NJ. kctchum Of the Wheeling
Commercial association proposed that
/ agitation be started to have federal
/ dog law passed. He suggested that
the law provide a heavy tax SO be-
| ing named, for keeping a dog.
Such measure, Mr.. kctchum
pointed out would provide revenue
which is badly needed at present; il
would mean the killing OF OF hun
drrds of worthless dogs; it woulH
mean the saving Of considerable food
stuff now led 10 dogs, and would
mean the raising OF more sheep
! II was pointed out by many that the
sheep industry is gradually growing
smaller because OF the dog menace.
! 1t required l50 pounds Of wool year
! to equip each American soldier: 1t
! was said that not enough WOOL Is
iproduced in America To equip the
army, and it is therefore important
/ that more sheep be raised, not unly
! from the standpoint OF greater wool
production but from Il food stand
point as we'll.
The suggestion was heartily en-
dorsed by all present and ii IS likely
! that congress will be asked 10 enact
! Il dog law at the present session.

THE COUNTY FAIR
OFFICERS CHOSEN
PLANS FOR A BIGGER AND BET.
TER FAIR FOR NEXT YEAR
WERE CONSIDERED
NEW OFFICERS ARE MEN OF EXPERIENCE
New Plan For Se~cretaryship Under
Consideratlon-Hope to Join Iowa
and Dakota Association

The directors of the Bookings Coun-
ty Fair Association met Friday after
noon in The Office Of Secretary j. f.
Brooke Of the association for the cleo
ton of new officers and to discuss
plans for mex years fair.
The following officers were elected:
Geo. Duff, president; L. l.. Squirting.
yice-presidcnt; Geo. w. Cobel, treas
urer; NJ. G. Carlisle, S. j. Rudolph,
Geo. Cobel and the president and sccre-
tary as an executive board. The cleo
ton of secretary was passed for the
present. The plan is TO confer With
the Commercial Club and attempt to
have q paid secretary for the fair and
club, paying him enough salary so that
he can devote his whole time to the
work Of both.
Plans TO he ensuing year were
gone over, and as a result it is hoped
to make the fair bigger and better. 1t
has been determined to get into the
northwestern Iowa and South Dakota
circuit Of which Alta, Fonda, sheldon.
Rock Rapids, Flandreau, Madison,
Huron and Sioux City are members,
and a delegate will be sem to the mid
winter meeting at Sioux Falls JaEu-
ar 23d for that purpose. If Brook
ings can get into this circuit it will
bring her in close touch with horse
men and entertainment managers who
follow that circuit.
The newly elected officers are all
good men. The new president has
the confidence of men all V e the
county, especially the farmers. He is
a good executive, having made a big
success of his own affairs, and if he
takes hold of the fair matters in the
same way there can be no question of
its success. The same may be said Of
the other officers.
A large share of the work, however,
will fall on the secretary. Mr.. Brooke,
who is voluntarily retiring, has made q
splendid secretary, and the association
will be fortunate indeed if as good q
man can be secured.
