(SDecial to The Tribune)

Fargo, March 21.-The Nonpartisan
Leaders edition this week takes up
the challenge hurled at the Nonparti-
sans last week by the Co-Operator's
Herald, the Equity society publica-
ton, by calling on the Society of
Equity to "clean up
"Your governor has been attacked
is the caption under which the Nom
partisan Leader directs it's appeal to
the Society of Equity members to re-
sent the attitude taken by their Off
cial newspaper, in its discussion of
overnor Frazier's veto of the terminal
elevator bill.
The Nonpartisan Leader seeks, in
it's article, to exempt the Society of
Equity membership from sharing the
responsibility for the Co-Operator's
Herald attack, and while it does not
mention names, it aims its fire di-
rectly at A. M. Baker, editor of that
publication, practically demanding
his removal
The Nonpartisan Leader doesn't an
swer the criticism of the Equity pub
lication, except in using terms that
have become so familiar in Nonpartf-
san meetings and Nonpartisan publ
cations, when referring to those who
chance to hold different opinions from
those advocated by Leaguers.

London, March 21.--A dispatch to
the Times from the Hague asserts
that IL new German peace move Is on

nent Germans have recently visited
Holland and Switzerland under in
slructions to try and ascertain what
the present attitude Of Great Britain

many could no longer claim she wished
to free the Russian Baltic provinces
and could also consider handing back
Poland to Russia under some form of
autonomy. He is represented as adding

Another visitor to Holland, continued
the correspondent, sought to learn the
attitude Of the entente and the United
States toward some general scheme Of
autonomy for the races Of Europe, es-
pecially in regard to Austria-Hungary.
The correspondent says that although
the commissioners claim they were not

ST. QUENTIN IS
Within SIGHT
Of FRENCH ARMY
Entente Forces For Looking Down
Upon Massive Guns of Hind
enberg's Line !
NO EVIDENCE OF HALT
IN THE GERMAN RETREAT
Associated Prcss.)

St. Quentin, reputed headquarters
of the German emperor and his gen.
eral staff for the two years following
TN" battle of the Marne, and scene OF
great French defeats in the war OF
1870, is today within sight Of the
French infantry, who are following
fast on the heels of the retreating Ger
man army. Twelve miles to the south
French troops arc also looking down
upon La Fere and are within reach
of the German heavy guns if the in-
vaders have really elected to hold the
famous Hindenberg line, running from
Lille to I.aOn.
No Evidence Of Halt.
SO far, there is no evidence that
the German retreat has halted, SEcl.
facts as arc known indicating the con-
trary. Lnfere is supposed to be one
of the cOrnerStoncS OF the Hindenberg
line. vet General Neville has been able
to occupy Tergnier. less than two
miles from Lafere, apparently with
out encOrnterinS serious resistance.

tiOn from which three roads branch, one
north to Lafere. a second southwest to
Noyon. and third northwest to st.
Qucnton Even more significant is the
fact that the British advancing on the
north against Cambrai. another vital
point on the HhIdenber@ line. have seen
llcentlary fires blaZin: in the rear
Of that town. The only fact to offset
these evidences that the Germans are
still retreating is that the advance OF
both British and French materially
>lackened yesterday.
Equinoctial Gale.
This is officially explained as due
to an eQuinoctial gale which swept
over the nlackened wilderness, in which
the opposing armies are maneuvering.
The British, whose advance has been
constantly slower than that of the
French. still are al appreciable dis
tance from Cambrai, their nearest out
post being about l. miles from that
city. The great Importance Of Cambrai
lies in the fact that it is the principal
barrier between the allies and the
great French coal and iron fields
arOInd |alenclenneS, twenty miles
farther on. These fields have been
in the possession of the Germans since
the first sweep toward Belgium.
q While uncertainty still reigns as to
the outcome of the great drama being
staged in Picardy, the Germans con-
time their efforts to create diversion
in the region of Verdun, but so far
nothing has developed to indicate that
q major operation is under way.
The most important fighting reported
from any other theAter is from the
long -quiescent Macedonian front. Here
the fighting between the Bulgar-Teu-
tonic forces and General Sarrairs
French troops has been steadily grow
ing in severity with conflicting reports
as to its result.

London. March 21.--The German re.
treat apparently has not reached the
"Hindenbers line today. Nevcrthe-
less. slowing up Of speed in the re-
trCgrade movement and a stiffening Of
fighting is reported in dispatches from
both the British and French fronts,
which indicates that the moment when
the German troops will settle .lown in
their prepared positions and make their
last stand is fast approaching. In
several places, at least. the line Of to-
days fighting is within two or three
miles of the ''Hindenberg line" as ex-
pertS have fixed IT, The British are
making haste more slowly, preferring
to rebuild the destroyed country, over
which they are advancing. England Is
awaiting great battle. au
Ten additional villages were occu-
pied by the French forces in further
progress north and northeast of Sois-
sons, it was officially announced to-
day.
