WITH HIS BACK TO THE
CHANNEL,

When the history Of this war is
written, no record will stand out
brighter than the heroic defense by
the British In the present battle.
For a week the attacks Of the Ger
mans on the northern part Of the
present battle line have been virtu-
any continuous. Night and day the
German hordes are sweeping against
the British lines. Attack after at
tack is repuIsed, and when a IuIl
comes the British rally for a counter
offensive to win back positions which
may have been lost.
Never have the Germans attacked
more viciously and never have the
attacks been so continuous and 80
long sustained. The Germans seem
determined to force decision south
of Ypres II Il costs them all their
available reserves. It is a supreme
effort, not just to break the line. but
to crush tho British army and back
1t up against the channel.
The British reports are typicaIly
British, with no sign Of fiamboyancy.
They are notably shy on adjectives.
There IA no mention Of heroic
troops" or "our brave armies" They
chronicIs the simple fact that: Elm
the course Of the day no less than
seven attacks were delivered, all OF
which were repulsed with heavy
loss" or parties Of the enemy sue
ceeded In penetrating our positions,
but later IN the day were driven out
by counter attacks"
Johnny Bull has his back against
the channel; his face to the foe; his
belt drawn in to the last notch; and
he IL lighting like a thoroughbred
bulldog, silent but to the death.

WHY DAKoTANS FEEL
PROUD.

Hurrah for the little village
OF Buffalo with its oversub.
scription of $17,500 before the
Liberty Loan drive really
openedl
Hurrah for Chaffee that
raised IS per cent of its quota
before 2 o'clock yesterday!
Hurrah for Fargo that took
one-third of the city's allotment
by noon yesterday.
We are going over the quota
here in North Dakota, without
a doubt. Overconfdence is the
one thing to be guarded
against, and it is being guarded
against.
Incidents reported by the
canvassers all show the new
spirit.
Every man I saw today took
his quota without a mUrmur.
"Only one fellow kicked, and
he had a kick coming. He Just
couldn't take it all, but took
what he could"
"One fellow who was down
for $500 took a thousand"
"Two of my men told me to
double their quota because it
wasn't big enough"
Didn't get a turn down"
"AIl ! had to do was to sign
them up"
These are samples Of the re-
ports Of the canvassers who
started out yesterday morning
in Fargo.
It ism t a rich man s war" any
longer. 1t isn't England s
war" It's "our war;" and any
man with any pride in his state
can't help feeling a warm glow
Of pride around his heart at the
way everybody is getting his
back under the load.
II isn't just the fact that the
quota will be oversubscribed.
It's the spirit of eager desire of
everyone to help and to get Gin
to the game" Old sores are for
gotten, and the state is working
together on a big thing and do
ing it in q big way with a spirit
that makes the blood tingle with
pride.

ray as TO what she herself saw,
Among other things she actually saw
an AIsatian woman crucified before
her husband, by order OF a German
officer, and horribly mutilated after
being nailed, naked and stiIl alive, TO
a cross. She testified under oath that
she herself had seen and talked to
women who had been abused until
their condition was such they later
died; children who had been
MANNED; soldiers who had been IN
sexed.
The story IN full is too revolving
to give in detail. Constant repetition
Of these atrocities serves no useful
purpose, but it is we'll to keep them
in mind; to remember that they are
always there; and that there can be
no compromise with the Hun.

Of German atrocities.
Proof OF their truthfulness Is too
easily obtainable.

But in the years since then, the
world has come to realize that the

Other similar complaints were uu-
merous. The coal burned badly
yielding unusual quantities Of ashes

considerable portion Of the ship

OF consisting Of clean coal from the

This year the Fuel Administrator

says an adequate supply is vital To-
the winning OF the war. Without
it we cannot make munitions or

COUNT czERNIN SACRIFICED.


That Count Czernin has been made

break" appears to be the generally
accepted idea in Allied circles.
Despite all denials and attempts 10
beclOud the issue, it is fairly well es-
tablishsd that Austria did make
overtures for peace to the Allies, and
that Emperor Charles admitted more
or less officially, that Frances claims
TO Alsaee-Lorraine were just.
Germany's plans now include not
only the retention OF Alsace, but OF
Flanders, separating Belgium into
two parts, and the payment Of an
immense indemnity by the Allies.
Those are the peace terms she in
tends to enforce IL her armies can
break through IN the West, and the
publication Of the Austrian Emperors
letter was. as it has been described,
a bombsheH. He promptly repudi-
ated 1t, but something further was

CHOSE THE RIGHT MOMENT.

David Lloyd George chose the
psychological moment to solve the
Irish question, and IL anything viii
bring an adjustment Of Ireland's diff
equities without civil strife. II win
be the present desperate battle In
France.
The stage is all set for the solution
Of the Irish question.
Despite Ireland's unhsard Of pros
perity as a result Of the war, and de-
spite her immunity from the draft,
discomfort has been growing. In
parts Of Ireland the conditions are
approaching anarchy. The British
premier has proposed home rule with
a definite minimum representation
for the Obstetrics. and attached to the
bill will be an extension Of the con-
scription act to include Ireland.
To please all Of Ireland Is tmpos-
sible. The British premisr's bold
stroke is designed to be based on
fairness and a desire TO satisfy the
claims OF the greatest possible num-
Der. Apparently he intends to stand
or fall on his plan, and his opponents
have not had the temerity to make
an issue Of IL at such a critical time.
The British premier has never lacked
the courage of his convictions. with
the empire watching the great battle

With q strong hand &C the helm,
Ireland's problem may be solved, and
