This is a great opportunity for
some young men OF ambition to see
the greatest fair of the middle west,
to become acquainted with its great
resources, to form friends among one
hundred of the best young men of the
State and TO learn from the best in
structors the State affords who will

Strike Oil in Cass County.

On Wednesday morning of this
week, at about 10 O'Clock, the Emkay
Oil & Gas Company, operating on the
Joseph Z. Hartzler farm, located
about one-half mile south of East
Lynne. brought in an oil well, which
is yielding about eight barrels day
at depth of little over 200 feet
The we'll is also yielding a large sup
ply of gas, and preparations are be-
ing made to pipe it to the Hartzler
home for use in cooking, etc 1t is
reported that the company intends to
deepen this we'll to at least 700 feet,
in the hope of striking a heavier flow
OF OIL
The Emkay Company has leases on
more than 10000 acres in the neigh
borhoods of East Lynne, Gum City,
I-atour and Hadsell, and, thought it is
small, the importance of this strike
should mot be underestimate. 1t is
the intention of the company to thor
prospect the field, and it is
extremely probable that this strike
will be followed by other and more
important ones. which would draw
the attention of other companies to
this district. and end in its becoming
an oil center of the first magnitude.

ford, commanding the Department of

unable to maintain order in its cities.

Canadian Aviator Has Shot Down ~
German Air Planes in France.

London, June 28.-Via. Ottawa
With seventy-two German airplanes
brought down to his credit, the great
est number of enemy machines de-
stroyed by an entente airman so far,
Major William A. Bishop has been
transferred from the Canadian active
force at the front to a position at
the office of the British chief of the
air staff.
Three weeks ago Major Bishop
took to France hand picked fight
ing squadron of whom a large per-
centage were Canadians. The squad
ron was equipped with the latest and
best British fighting airplanes and in
the short time it has been at the
front it has accounted for an extra
ordinary number of enemy machines.
Major Bishops record of German
airplanes brought down in aerial
combat, if reckoned on the same
basis as was that of the late Baron
Won Richthofen, the champion Ger
man airman, who counted double
seated machine as two victories,
would be we'll over the century mark.
On the morning of the day he re-
ceived the order to return to Eng
land, which was quite unexpected by
him, he went out for one last fling at
the enemy and before his return
brought down five machines. On
landing he said goodbye to his COM
rades, jumped into motor car and
caught a boat for England.

In order to encourage the large

TAX LAWS VALID
Supreme Court Upholds Validity o,
Income Revenue Laws.

Jefferson City, June 28.-Two OF
the most important of the revenue
laws enacted by the last general as
sembly as part OF the Legislative
programme" of Governor Gardner
were declared constitutional by the
supreme court today.
One is the income tax act and the
other the revision of the collateral in
heritance tax code. The income tax
suit was instituted by the Ludlow
Saylor Wire Company of St. Louis
against Assessor Louis Wallbrinck OF
St. Louis to restrain him from enforc-
ing the law. 1t was a test case and
many corporations were interested.
In the lower court a demurrer filed
by attorneys for the assessor was
sustained, and the injunction was APP
pealed to the supreme court, the case
being advanced on the docket.
Chief Justice Henry w. Bond wrote
the opinion holding the income act
valid. He holds that the law does not
in the slightest contravene any of the
limitations fixed by the constitution
in revenue, nor does it in any way
conflict with or contravene any Of the
provisions Of the federal constitution.
Judge w. w. Graves wrote the
opinion holding the collateral inheri-
lance tax law valid. The ease grew

some in our community it has entered

Copyright 1918. by tho New York Times,
the Chicago. Tribune and tho Oklahoma
city Tlmes)
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE fourth
day Of the Anglo French offensive
which will unquestionabiy be known as
the third battle OF the Somme, reveals
with some measure of clarity the pur-
pose OF Ludcudorif and the method he
is following in endcavoring to meet and
check Foch. lie has abandoned the old
Montddicr salient and all notion Of
holding any portion OF his position
west OF the line held by the Germans
at the beginning Of the first battle OF
the Somme in July, 1910 He is now
attempting to restore his front some
where between the Somme and the Disc
west OF the line Perronc- Ham Chauny,
to which he must eventually retire.
To accomplish this Ludcndorff is rap
idly increasing the tcnacity of the re
slstauCc on the TANKS OF the break in
his line lie is standing firm oh tho
high ground north Of the Sommc, which
saw the famous fighting OF 1910. and on
high ground north and west OF the Oise
between Noyon and Las>igny II he
holds these tlanks for the next day or
two the Anglo-Frcnch drive will have
10 slow down and stop, because our al
lies viii presently find themselves
thrustng into a salient as awkward as
the one from which the Germans has
Just been evicted
As ii now stands, there is no salient
or practically none, and the allied front
runs fairly straight from the Disc be
low Rbccourt TO the Ancrc at Albert
with the Germans still holding Royc
and the British in Chaulnc>. At the
northern end OF this front the German
resistance has so far been obstinate. and

on the whole the allied advance hav-
ing been in considerable, although it is
approaching Bray. At the southern end
about Ribecourt and Lassigny there has
been practically no progress so far.
We are seeing once more reproduced
the northern history of successful Of
fensive in the present form OF warfare Ot
the four stages two preparation OF the
attack and the attack itself, are over
The third phase, that of pursuit, is still
going forward, hut the successful re-
siStance OF the flanks suggests that we
are almost at the point where the pur-
suit will merge into the fourth and last
stage, which is the march of approach
to the new position All now depends
upon the success OF the Germans IN
maintaining their flankS in the next
twcnty-four hours
The British and the French have
completely ruptured the German front
between the Somme and the LasSlgny
high ground
There seems to be tendency OF the
allied drive both to grow narrower and
move more slowly II this tendency be
comes more marked. we may expect TO
see the whole drive come to halt at
the west bank OF the Sommc, south OF
Peronnc, and the lines at lcas; tempo
rarily, stabilize themselves ON a front
OF Peronne- Ham Chauney, or even the
high ground north and cast OF Noyon
On the other hand, the obvious allied
move now is to attempt to break down
the flanks or piyots OF the German re-
treat and more particularly the north
ern pivot If the Germans can be
forced out OF the high ground about
Bapaume the famous ridge OF the
old Somme days, then an abstraction OF
the front will set in motion and there
will be no chance OF a German halt
even a temporary pause, west oi the oI.
! Hindtnburg line
1t is well to bear in mind too that
there are distinct difference, As we'll
