DESOLATION HOLDS
SWAY AT ZEEBRUGGE

Washington, Oct. 26.-Zeebrugge
is the picture of desolation. according
to dispatches received today at the
Belgian legation. The semaphore
the buildings of the Compagnie Mari
time and the Solvay Chemical Works
are heap of ruins. On the Mole
itself all the buildings have been de-
stroyed. and the system of railway
tracks and overhead cranes is out of
commission. After the passage be-
tween the Mole and the shore had
been partially closed by the British
submarine during the raid of April
23. the Germans set up two heavy
guns. commanding the approaches to
the harbor. A great deal of sand
has drifted into the harbor. between
the passage back of the Mole. and the
entrance to the Bruges Canal, where
the wreck of the British cement-laden
vessel, sunk in April, still is lying
The only signs of life in the desc
late place, the dispatches say. are
the loud reports. followed by huge
jets of water and dense clouds Of
black smoke coming from the explo-
sions Of the mines laid by the Ger
mans. which British soldiers are
blowing up.
The whole Belgian coast in the
vicinity of Zeebrugge had been trans
formed into a series of Notifications
bristling with guns, wire defenses and
storage depots connected by a rail-
way. The celebrated seashore prom
enade is broken up by trenches and
protected shelters of machine guns
and small cannon.
The roads are in fairly good condi-
tion, but all the bridges and locks
were destroyed by the Germans in
their precipitate retreat before the
irresistible dash of the Belgian
troops

L. $. THREATENED WITH
BAN OF Hun EMIGRATION

Amsterdam. Oct. 26.-Because of
Americas intense hatred for every

Neueste Nachrichten, Germans will
henceforth fight shy of emigrating to

nations population in generations to
come will be the Latin-Slav- Mongo-

Want ad columns ought to contain

The conquering British found the

The cottage is of elaborate archi-

huge brick fireplace, surmounted by
mantlepiece above which are carved

with fly screens. Rooms are paneled
with valuable wood. The ceilings
are of square wooden panels. with
neatly beveled diamonds of wood at

The patriotism and usefulness OF
the Republicans as "A minority in
winning this war stand out so clear
ly as compared with that of the lead
ers of the Democratic majority, that
the Republicans may well go TO the
people on the issue which the Presi-
dent raises.
Nor is there any more real
weight in the Presidents plea that an
election of Republican Congress
will injure the cause of the country
I'm this war abroad as a vote of want
of confidence in his prosecution of
the war The intelligence which he
says the Eeropean people have en-
ables them to see that an election of
a Republican congress will mean a
more certain prosecution of the war
to an unconditional surrender than
II the President shall secure a House
and Senate who will only do his will
and second his desires. The shiver
which went through the hearts of
the American people when the impli-
ed proposals of the Presidents first
note for negotiated peace were so
quickly accepted by Germany was
shared by all the brave but suffering
peoples of our allies. For reasons,
apparent to all, the real expressions
OF feeling In respect to President Will
sons utterances in England and
France were restrained But when
the torrent Of American public opin-
ion compelled gradual return to-
ward demand for unconditional
surrender, the joy of our allies was
unrestrained They know that
verdict at the election for a Republi-
can House will end forever the
dangers which seemed to face a ne
gotiated peace.
Instead of obstructing the Presi-
dent and our allies in winning the
war and dictated peace, nothing
would so discourage the Germans and
hearten our allies as the return of
Republican Congress.
