BIG BRITISH

LONDON, Sept. 29.--All news
agencies were apprised by a mes
sage from British general head
quarters dated yesterday and
signed war correspondents" not
to expect any news from the Brit
ish front.
Beyond artillerying, Field Mar
shall Haig had nothing special"
to report from the British front
today.
This message may indicate a
temporary closing down of CEN
sorship due to some big move by
Field Marshal Haig. During the
last few days the drum fire of
British artillery on the Ypres
front has been extraordinarily
violent, according to press re-
ports, possibly presaging another
great blow there.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY IL, 1917

Gov. Milliken gives further evidence
of his purpose to keep Maine dry in
his recommendation that a constitu-
tional amendment be set in motion
and adopted that will give the execu-
tive power to remove a sheriff for
cause after notice and hearing, and
that statute be enacted comforting
the same power in the case of county
attorneys. Upon these officials in
their several jurisdiction is held to
rest success or failure in the enforce
ment of the prohibitory law, and they
have always needed a deal of watch
ing 1t is argued that if a governor
had these powers he could make all
the sheriffs and county attorneys be-
good citizens to uphold the majesty
of the law" Gov. MiIliken goes to the
root of the matter Without the sup
port of public sentiment even the
clubs for the executive arm will not
avail against the "ostensibly respecta-
able outlaws both within and without
the state" That this issue should
be gwen first place in Gov. Milliken's
message is natural under the cir
cumstances. He warns the law
makers against too much legislation,
urges a budget system and advises
that the submission OF an equal suf-
frare amendment has been too long
delayed Will the republican party

much in earnest?- Springfield Re-
