We fight, first of all, for America s

our farms, our mines and our fac

a people depend upon our right OF

rights by withdrawing our ships and
commerce from the seas upon the or

would destroy prosperity and bring
disaster and humiliation upon the
American people.

THE LIBERTY LOAN

For the purpose of equipping with
arms, clothing and food our
gallant soldiers who have been
called to the field;
For maintaining our Navy and our
valiant tars upon the high
seas;
For providing the necessary means to
pay the wages of our soldiers
and sailors and, if the bill now
pending in the Congress passes,
the monthly allowances for the
support of their dependent
families and to supply them
with life insurance;
For constructing a great fleet of mer-
chant vessels to maintain the
line of communication with our
brave troops in France, and to
keey our commence afiOat upon
the high seas in defiance of the
German kaiser and his SUBJ
marines;
For creating a great feet of aero
planes, which will give COM
plete supremacy in the air to
the United States and the brave
nations fighting with us against
the German military menace
and for other necessary war
purposes.
The Congress of the United States
has authorized the secretary of the
treasury to sell to the American peo-
pie bonds of the United States bear
ing four per cent interest, with valu-
able tax exceptions, and convertible
under certain conditions into other is
sues of United States bonds that may
be authorized by the Congress. The
official circular of the treasury de-
partment gives full details.
There is now offered to the Ameri-
can people a new issue of $3,000,000,-
900 of bonds to be known as the Sec
ond Liberty Loan. They will be is
sued in such denominations and upon
such terms that every patriotic citi-
zen will have an opportunity to assist
the government by lending his money
upon the security of United States
government bond.
1t is essential to the success of the
war and to the support of our gallant
| troops that these loans shall not only
be subscribed, but oyer-subscribed
No one is asked to donate or give his
money to the government; but every
one is asked to lend his money to the
government. The loans will be re-
paid in full with interest at the rate
of four per cent per annum. A gov
ernment bond is the safest invest
ment in the world; it is as good as
currency and yet better, because the
government bond bears interest and
currency does not. No other invest
ment compares with it for safety
ready convertibility into cash, and
unquestioned availability as collateral
security for loans in any bank in the
United States.
People by thousands ask the treas
ury department how they can help
the government in this war. Through
the purchase of Liberty Bonds, every
one can help. No more patriotic duty
can be performed by those who can
mot actually fight upon the field OF

ATTACKS Of TEUTONS ON WESTERN FRONT PROVED BNAVA ING
MORE GROUND TO ITALIANS
Press)

While the British apparently are
preparing for another offensive stroke
in Flanders, the German crown prince
is again harrassing the French in the
Verdun section. The Germans attack
ed last night on both sides of the
Meuse where their artillery work has
been intensive for the past few days.
Paris announces the attacks were re-
pulsed.
After yesterdays three futile at
tempts to drive the British from the
high ground on both sides of the
Menin-Ypres road the Germans con-
tented themselves with bombarding
last night. The British official state
ment is silent on the British response.
1t is believed that Gen. Cadorna's
latest success on the Italian front
will be followed up as the new ground
has been held against all counter at
tacks.

BRITISH AIR BARRAGE
London, Oct. 1.-Of the German
airplanes participating in last nights
raid on London, two were destroyed,
one brought down and big Gotha
plane descended apparently damaged.
All the British machines returned
safely The raid, which was the fifth
in seven nights, accomplished little
for the enemy. The claim that the
"air barrage" acts as a powerful de-
terrent is further justified. The Times
says it is assured in the belief that
adequate defense has been solved.
Many newspapers demand reprisals.

Nine were killed and forty-two hurt
