 ports afloat that additional charges will

 organization tomorrow of the house,

 Speaker F. o. Fuller looking to the inn

 Such reports were without confirm
 ation but neither did they meet de-

 possible for the governors opponents on this to add to the thirteen charges already preferred alleging misappro- priation of public funds, disregard of the banking laws, undue interference with the state university and other acts alleged to have been not in keeping with his office.

CANADIANS MOVE
 FORWARD AT LENS
 WITH SMALL LOSSES
[RepubIican A. p. Leased wirel

CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE. Aug. 5.-(By the Canadian Press limited )- Another forward movement to the southwest of Lens has been made with a minimum loss For the best part of two weks in the Cite du Moulin our patrols and those of the enemy have been living an un- easy life almost side by side, with only q few tumbledown walls between them. Yesterday afternoon small attacking palties set out from that part of the Cite du Moulin already in our hands and drove in the enemy's patlH!3 along front of over a thousand yards. The Germans for the most part scuttled back toward Lens, but a number were caught under our fire and killed. \ new outpost line was established and prepared for a counter attack. No counter attack had been made up to the time of filing this despatch.
 This advance carries the Canadians well within a thousand yards of the center of Lens on the western front 0 fhte city. At Avion and Leauvitte , on the south 1fOnt, our OulpoStS al now about mile from the center, and in the northwest sector, opposite St Laurent, our line is scant fifteen hundred yards from the heart of Lens l The net is fast closing.
 1 A remarkable story is told concern ] ing the cool bravery of one of our ar 1 tillery observation officers. The post ! from which he had been observing the effect of our gun fire was an excel i lent one for the purpose. The Ger man gunners, knowing it was being 1 put to use as an observation post, de- i termined to destroy the building. They began shooting at it early in the morn i ing and continued firing on the struc-
 ture throughout the day, using in al l considerably over three hundred pounds at cost of many thousand: Y, of dollars.
 The building rocked and swayed un-
 der the impact of bursting shells bu only twice during the day did the ob
 server leave his post. Once he did s' to report that the top of his periscop' had been carried away by a burstin.

 him out for a few minutes by throw ing part of an adjacent building upo
 that in which his post was located
 His devotion to duty under constan
 peril enabled gunners to continue thei work on a day when aeroplane obser

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Aug. B.
