(By Associated Presy.)

A Russian republic has been pro-
claimed. The provisional government
under date Of September IA issued
a proclamation declaring that to-
strengthen the organization of the
state, a change to a. republican form
Of government was necessary. ,Sf5
Danger still threatens Russia, the.
proclamation says. although the re-l
bellion Of General KorniloR has failed.
The plan of a Russian republic has
been one Of the chief aims Of the
Radicals and the Councils OF Soldiers,
and Workmen' ii Delegates and ives
given approval by the recent sssit ssssian
fcongress at Moscow. ~
A cabinet of five members, includ-.
ling Premier Kerensky, has been nam
Fed to take care of all matter of state.
The only party men are Premier Ke-
rensky and NJ. Nikitine, minister OF
posts and telegraphs, both Of whom
are social reyolutionists.
Although the position Of the Ke-
rensky government appears to be I'M
proving, the action Of the grand coun-'
| Gil of the Don Cossacks in refusing to
surrender General Ka1edines, their
hetman, is omtnous. The leader Of
the Cossacks is accused of completely
in the Korniloff revolt.
More Fighting Reported.
Increased activity is noticeable on
l IAC 4lOlAtSp SopOSiSLlly
near Riga and on the Isonzo. A stub
born battle is in progress near the
Zegevold Farm, on the Riga-Pskoff
road, 40 miles northeast Of Riga.
Whether the action is a German at
tempt in force or only a feint is un-
certain. Petrograd, however, reports
that the Russians are valiantly repell-
ing attacks. 1t was in this region
that the Russians on Thursday made
a considerable advance only to be
driven back again Friday to their for
mer position.
Italians Advance Lines.
! On the Bainbizza plateau, northeast
Of Gorilla and in the region of Monte
San Gasriele, the Italians on Saturday
and Sunday advanced their lines on
the southeastern edge. In the opera
ton General Cadorna's men captured
more than 400 prisoners and some ma
lchine guns.

region the German crown prince has
made Intellectual attacks against the
French lines Northwest of Rheims

EVERY YOUTH ENLISTS
IN LA GRANDE, OREGON

Uncle Sam tips his hat to LaGrande,
Oregon. Every young man in that
city who is able to carry a rifle has
joined the colors. Sgt Harry w. Lee,
u. s. NJ. c., wired this tidings to Capt
L. P. Pinkston, says the Portland Ore
gonian.
Not a man in town to be had. All
gone to war No use staying here,
because it will take the little fellows
too long to grow up. Boys of IA and
Is want to enlist, but too young"
So they are going to close the ma
rine recruiting station at La Grande,
not because the city is too slow, but
because it was too fast when war
came. Medford is about the same
way; the army, navy and marines
have taken about every boy in the
Jackson county metropolis who could
pass the examining surgeon, so Med
ford's marine station will be closed in
few days.
After a rather dull recruiting week,
made so by the Rose festival, busi-
ness opened lively at the marine head
quarters in Portland. The big drive
for soldiers Of the sea is on again.
