The Hohenzollerns Are Through.

It is now reported that Frederick
William. eldest son of the late En-
peror of Germany, has renowned all
rights to the crown of Prussia and the
imperial crown in document dated
December l. This will be regarded
with reserve. An interview with the
former crown prince dated December
10 represented him as saying that he
had renowned nothing, though will
ing to abide by events. Something
more than an alleged text of docu-
ment of remuneration will be required
to cause conviction that Frederick Will
liam has definitely and finally aban-
doned all rights and claims and hopes
of succession to his fathers former
role.
Actually it makes but little diff
ference as to the eventual result i'll
Germany whether the crown prince has
renowned or not. The Hohenzollerns
arc through, no matter what they
think, or wish, or expect, and no mat
ter what any party in Germany may
undertake to do toward their restora-
ton. If there is one thing clearly es-
tablished US a result of this war it is
that the dynasty that has brought Ger
many into its present situation and
wrought such havoc in the world can
never again reign over any combina-
ton of peoples or nations.
From Berlin occasionally comes
dispatch to indicate that reactionaries
are plotting a restoration movement;
that the revolution is but a camoufage
or covering device to permit eventual
restoration of the monarchy under
Hohenzollern rule. There are two
elements to prevent success for such
a scheme, the German people and the
allies, and between them it is certain
that reactionary movement in Ger
many will merely cause additional suf-
fering to the Germans and postpone
ment of the final peace.

Economy and Congress.

In the matter of economy, now un-
der earnest discussion in Congress,
there is much assurance for the coun-
try in the character and demonstrated
capacity of the two men in the fore
front there directing the movement.
Mr.. Sherley, chairman of the House
appropriations committee, knows the
subject and the situation we'll. Sue
ceeding a very competent man in the
place-Mr. Fitzgerald of New York
he was put to the test; and it is con-
fessed on both sides of the chamber
that he has fully met the test. He
carried through the committees bills
at the last session with ease. They
were war bills, and large. The bills
to be reported to this session will be
peace bills, and, therefore, smaller.
But that he will meet with equal sue
cess in handling them is safe as
sumption. He has large credit with
the House.
In the Senate, Mr.. Martin of Vir-
ginia presides over the appropriations
committee. He is fttingly described
in the familiar phrase, which carries a
good deal Of compliment, "an old hand
at the bellows" He is Thorough in
all his work, and in no part Of it more
so than in that relating to the gov
ernment's money needs. As a sup
porter of the war, he has, Of course,

Britain's Day,

It is appropriate that the people of
this country should commemorate the
valor and services Of the British people
in the war. There are strong ties be-
tween them. Their language is the
same and their national customs are
in large measure identical There is a
family resemblance. From England
came the majority Of those who found
ed the new western republic, and
though the colonists were compelled to
tight for their independence from Brit
ish rule they have never felt otherwise
than as akin to those from whom they
sprang.
The great war has drawn the peoples
of the two countries closer together
an made them appreciate one another
more fully. There still are differences
Of opinion between them. There still
remain elements of possible friction in
matters of trade. But the clouds of
misunderstanding have been swept
away by the blasts of conflict.
Shoulder to shoulder American and
British soldiers have stood to hold
back and eventually to drive eastward
the common enemy. Great numbers of
our troops have gone to the front
through England, where they were
made at home and received with hearty
welcome. The King of England re-
viewed and praised them and accorded
them his warmest greetings as allies.
Some of these men are now returning.
bringing with them keen sense of
kinship with the people of the mother
land
Britain's part in the war has been a
hard one. The conflict found her I'M
prepared on land, with an army so
small as to be barely appreciate as
fighting force in the gigantic contest
of arms. Her navy, however, was
ready for duty and rendered service
that cannot be adequately measured.
1t drove the German raiders from tho
seas and effectually bottled up the
kaiser's sea forces, which he had been
preparing for a contest. 1t confined
the enemy to his land operations.
Controlling the sea it made possible
the transport of the bulk of the allied
army to France and the western front.
When the submarines began to oper-
ate British commerce paid the highest
toll of all. And then the British naval
forces attacked the sea pests and in
the end with American cooperation
held them powerless.
The British losses in the war have
been enormous, but they have been
suffered heroically. With character
istic stoisism, without complaint, they
have been borne as the price to be paid
for liberty. Now in the hour of vic
tory the survivors are paying the high
est tribute to those who gave their
lives that Britain may remain free, and
in this tribute the American people

Dan Tarpley AT Front
Says French Are Great

D. W. Tarpley who went into the ser
vice more than a year ago from Salem
is now at the front demonstrating what
a real live Yank can do, according to a
letter received recently by B. H. Wag-
ner. He is with Company /, Tenth
Engineers and writes in part as follows;
'sI was lucky enough to take boche
prisoner. He gave his age as 20. The
Boche cannot understand how a Yank
can fight without hardly any training,
but we sure whipped the hell out OF
their best troops.
"I was on motor ready to leave on
my furlough when we were stopped and
ordered to get ready to move. We were
put through a weeks drill with gas
masks and rifle. 1t begins to look like
the war will be ever next year. We
will have three or four million Yanks
over here by that time.
"The French praise our soldiers. 1t
would amuse you to see the gestures
they 90 through in explaining how a
Yank fights. The French are the best
soldiers in the world with the bayonet.
A Yank will use his gun"

The Days Work


The allies have broken through the
German line northeast Of st. Quentin.
This thrust, together with the com
bined push of Mangin's and Berthe
lots armies between Ailette and the
Vesle, is threatening the st. Gobaln
massif and Laon by gigantic plncers
movement nearly fifty miles across tbs
base.
The big wooded plateau of st. 90
balm is recognized as the greatest nat
ural defense on the west front Laon IS
vital center of communications.
The French advance along the Chem
in-des-Dames and west of Rheims has
been one of steady progress the last
few days. The reported break through
northeast of st. Quentin, however, Is
the result of the combined smash OF
British, French and American troops
along fifty mile front in Picardy ana
is believed to have been made posa-
Bile by the French occupation Of st.
Quentin.
Haig reported today that breach
was made late yesterday in the Ger
man defense lln6 petWcCh SVii9"iAN
and Beurevoir. A battle front dispaatca
re. eived by way Of Londan this after,
noon indicated that this success had
been extended and that break thru
had been affected. The extent of TINS
new success was not revealed, but lts
possibilities are enormous.
Capture of Damascus by British cav
airy yesterday, officially announced to-
day, has opened the way to Aleppo,
POO miles north, where Allenby and
Marshall, the latter commanding the
British armies in Mesopotamia, may
effect a junction for a march on Con
stantinople from the south.
The Serbian communique today re-
ported that after the Bulgarian with
drawal began Monday, Serbian troops
occupied Kumanovo, northeast Of US
kub. The allies thus acquired an excel
lent "take Of" for the race north
ward to oppose the German armies n
terinig into northern Serbia from ku-
manik. Kumanovo is only 70 (mlies
south of Nish. a.
The Germans have practically the
same distance to travel in reaching
that city from Rumanian territory.

Made TWO Mile Drive

London, Oct. 2. - British troops,
smashing forward on a twenty mile
front between Cambria and st. Quentin,
tore the German defenses to pieces in
some portions of the line yesterday
and penetrated maximum depth of
about two miles, it was indicated by
Field Marshal Haig's report today.
The communique said that the Fon-
somme-He HeaureVoir line (well to the
eastward of both Cambria and st. Quen
tin has been preached.
The Germans have been driven from
Creve Coeur and Rumilly, Haig an
nounced. The British have occupied
the high ground to the east of those
places.
"The village of Sequehart Give
miles northeast of st. Quentin) and the
hamlet of Presellcs "a mile northwest
of Sequehart) have been captured, +"
the statement said.
"The Fonsomme-B -Beaurevoir line has
been preached. The enemy has been
cleared from north of Joncourt. The
Australians completed the capture of
the defenses south of LeCatelet and
Gouy. (Fonsosmme is five miles north
east Of st. Quentin. Beaurevoir is two
miles east of LeCatelet.)
Following strong pressure on the
enemy throughout the earlier part of
the day, at four p. m. the Thirty Sec
ond division attacked the center Of the
German defensive system from Fon-
somme to the neighbofhood of Beaure-
voiri. The attack was successful.
Gin the sector south of Cambria a
fierce struggle lasting all day was ter
minated by a successful attack at dusk.
As result, New Zealand, English and
Scottish troops drove the enemy from
Creve Occur and Rumilly and estab-
lished themselves on the high ground
east and north of those villages. Sew
eral hundred prisoners were taken"

THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes,
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga.
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the favor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances. that is the first
thing asked for.
