Allies Face New Dangers.

Allied armies, so valiantly battling
Hun hordcs, face new dangers. Ger
man blows which have been delivered
against the French in the Athletic
river region on the southerly side Of
fhe salient before Amiens, if success
full, might upset the entire allied
scheme Of defense and permit the en-
emy to gain a great portion of the
ground won in their first dash for
Paris in 1914.
The German command evidently is
following closely knitted plan Of
driving wedges here and there all
along the main sections of the western
front with the hope that intervening
allied salients eventually may be iron
ed out and the consequent gain of
terrain be tremendous.
With German soldiers now resting
on the banks Of the Marne it is but
natural that the Germans should be-
gin at once to coordinate activities on
the Aisne and Amiens salients in or.
der that the French may be driven
back and the wings of each German
salient be made more secure against
allied counter attacks.
But IN the attacks on the Aillctte
are disclosed ambitious German plans
to reach Paris. The first German
blows fell in the region of the juno
tion of the Cise and the Athletic rivers
and extended eastward along the
French line. The French were forced
back a. certain points, but according
to late dispatches the armies of Gen.
Petain are holding firm and attack
after attack has been repulsed.
Should the Germans succeed, they
will repeat their tactics Of 1914, and
strike down the Disc. All French
forces lying between the tip of the
German salient resting on the Marne
and the Disc naturally would be forced
to retire and evacuate this wide strip
Of territory while the French operating
IN the elbow about Montdidier would
5c forced backward in turn. The
Germans. with completely united and
direct front from the Disc to the
Narnc, might then undertake their
final concerted drive to capture Paris.
That the river Disc plays an impor-
tant part IN the German scheme Of
things is an undoubted fact, inaslnuch
as it affords second line Of commu-
nication to the south-in fact, it would
be the chief one should the French be
forced to retire. The Germans having
reached the Marne can use this river
in carrying out further plans, but north
and south communications must be es-
tablished and maintained to its banks.
The Disc, however, runs from the very
heart Of the territory now held by the
Germans in the north to the Paris
district.
Though German plans are extremely
ambitious and much headway has been
made, there is no reason to believe
that Gen. Foch will sit by complacent.
ly and witness their complete realiza-
tion without striking the mighty blow
which allied armies have it within their
power to strike.

FINALLY CAME OUT FIRST
IN THIRD LIBERTY LOAN
DRIVE RECENTLY
FIRST BY JUST $1,000
Right, Wrong and Then Right
Again-Baxter Finally First
In the County, But Don't
Feel Like Growing

Baxter Springs led the entire coun'
ty in its total investments in Thirc
Liberty Loan Bonds, according to c
NJ. Sarchet, the city chairman of the
committee that made the drive. This
is shown absolutely by a letter just
received from Mr.. w. r. Rowe, execu-
tive secretary, Liberty Loan Commit
tee, Tenth Federal Reserve District,
Kansas City, Mo.
The official totals for the various
towns in Cherokee county for the
Third Liberty Loan are as follows:-
Baxter Springs, $161, 500; Columbus,
s15O,OOO; Galena, $4,000; Scammon,
$72, 100; Weir City, $67,O5O; Mineral,
$22, 900, and Hallowell, $4,000. The
total subscriptions for Cherokee coun-
ty were $617,65O. The total quota for
the county was 100000. The amount
oversubscribed was $212,65O. The
total figures, given here for Column
bus, include also those subscribed by
practically all farmers in the entire
county, as all the townships were or
ganized and worked by Columbus to
make that city's quota.
The only question, as to whether or
not Baxter Springs led the county,
was based on the subscriptions Of the
Baxter National Bank, which were
quoted heretofore in newspapers as
SCI 800, when in fact they should have
been $56,5OO, as the following letter
from Mr.. Rowe shows:
