LONDON AND COUNTY TROOPS TAKE BACK
 MUCHLOST GROUND

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Sept. 22.-(By The Asso- ciated Press)-A midnight advance of the London and English county troops succeeded in the regaining of a large portion of the ground last Saturday after an attack along the fragments of the Hindenburg outpost line be- tween Cambrai and St. Quentin.
 During Saturday morning these ba- tallions, with yoemanry and Austra- Hans on their right, stormed a series of redoubtS and farms forming the backbone of the outpost system op- posite Delleglise and Nendhuile, mile and a half west of the Scheldt canal between St. Quentin and Cambrai. They occupied Zellemont and Quen- nemont farms, Little Priel. the Tom bois redeubts and a chain of strong trenches, heavily banked with wire, connecting those positions.
 Enemy Slowly Bombed. Back
 Early Saturday afternoon counter at tacks were delivered by the Alpine corps and the 3Sth Thuringian and Second Guards divisions which were masSed in the main Hindenburg sys- tenn on the western bank of the canal. They drove in great strength down the trenches, but the British bombed them back slowly
 Four hundred prisoners had been taken by the British during Saturday morning and half of these were re- leased by the counter assault. The British retired about half way to their original positions west of Epehy and Ronssoy, maintaining a miximum ad- vance of nearly a mile at some places, and stubbornly held their ground for the remainder of the day.
 Determined trench fighting con tinued without .intermission throughout Saturday afternoon and night. The German artillery east of the canal which had been further reinforced, laid down heavy bombardment on the entire front. s
 Englishmen Recapture Trenches At six o'clock Saturday evening the i Germans counter attacked again ant won few additional trenches south o Villers -Guislain which they had los in the morning.
 At midnight the Londoners and Eng l fish county units delivered fresl attack west of Nendhuile and cap tured these trenches with the Littl' Priel farm in the Hindenburg outpos line and advanced close to that line a: far south as the junction with the Aus tralians near Hargicourt. The Britisl positions were further improved Sun day morning.
 The German second army has issue' orders that the British advance mus be stopped at all costs and efforts mus be made to take back all lost trenches
 The result of the fighting of the las 36 hours has been to bring the Britisl front within about three quarters of mile of the main Hindenburg systen opposite Bellecourt on the canal, an
 within a mile and a half of the Nend huile bridgehead, eleven miles south Cambrai.

The Passion Of War.

Austria concludes from reports re-
ceived at Vienna that the entente gov
ernments have rejected the proposal
for an unbinding peace discussion and
says that "the peace question, as dis
cussed by Secretary BaRour-and the
same applies to the debates in the
French and American senatesHunder
the pressure Of big catch words and
overmastering passion, can naturally
make no favorable progress"
That "overmastering passion" is
correctly recognized. As far as the
American people are concerned, there
is veritable passion against anything
savoring Of a Germanic peace plan. We
are passionately waging this war, be-
cause we deeply feel that only in that
spirit can it be rightly ended, through
victory. Our passions have been
aroused by the Teutonic atrocities and
barbarities, by the repeated manifesto
lions Of bad faith, by the outrages COM
mitted upon humanity. It is the pas
sion Of righteousness.
Much has been gained If that passion
felt by the peoples Of the entente ma
tons is now recognized in the enemy
countries. Much more wnl be gained if
they will come to know that that pas
sion is directed to the end Of ending
an intolerable evil and setting straight
a world knocked awry by the ambi-
tions and Vaccinations of Germany.
Possibly in time the true quality of
the American war passion will be un.
derstood even in Austria and Ger
many. When that time comes the way
to peace may open.

The Bolsheviki.

Cnconfrmed reports have been print
ed to the effect that the bolshevik lead
ers announce that an offensive and de-
fensive alliance has been concluded
with Germany. This is superfuous,
save for the public announcement Of
an already well established fact. The
documents which have during the past
few days been in process Of pubica-
ton in this country, the authenticity
of which has not been questioned, have
plainly demonstrated that the bolshe-
vik government of Russia was from
the beginning merely an agency Of
Germany, that it was financed from
Berlin, that its armed forces were paid
by Berlin, that its leaders were under
the orders Of Berlin, that its archives
were at the disposal Of Berlin, that
it aided Berlin's schemes for the ex-
tension Of German propaganda in en-
tente countries, that it made . treaty
Of peace at the dictation of Berlin
and that it entered into secret agree
ments with Berlin giving Germany
and Austria special advantages Of trade
and industry in Russia.
An open avowal Of the true relations
between the soviet of Russia and Ger
many win be welcomed, confirming al

playing Of games and rendering Of en-
tertainments and for supposed diver
sion Of the shipbuilding crews. The
strike is evidence that the workmen
do not need entertainment to the ex-
tent that provision has been made for
it, and the question arises whether
there is not too much effort at the d.
version Of the war forces. Assuredly
the man power Of the country is needed
chiefly on the direct task Of war max
ing. Only those should be engaged in
entertainment enterprises who are not
capable Of doing a full days work in
the munitions plants, or the shipyards.
or who cannot meet the physical re-
quirements Of the military service.
These husky young men who have gone
into the shipyards as workers from
the base ball fields and who are do
ing only a fraction Of the work per-
formed by the artisans are regarded
by the latter as slackers. If the work
ers themselves feel that their employ
ment is unfair unless they do full
measure Of work the best thing for
the government to do is to exact uni
form performance from every man on
the rolls, whether he plays base ball or
gives boxing exhibitions or dramatic
entertainments on the side or not.

Germany Accepts.

Germany's acceptance of Austria's
proposal for an unbinding peace con-
ference is one Of the most diverting
episodes of the season. Solemnly it
has been declared in Berlin that there
was no knowledge there of the plan Of
the Vienna government to invite the
belligerent powers to q discussion. Ac-
tually it is known that the Austrian
plan was fully understood in advance
by Germany. This acceptance" in
the face Of the emphatic, swift rejec-
ton of the suggestion by the entente
powers, is evidence Of "plant."
Now the German government can
turn to it's people and say: "Seef We
have been asked by our ally to meet
tie enemy at the council table to dis
cuss peace, and We have agreed, in the
hope Of ending this awful war, but
the enemy refuses and declares his
intention to use force to the utmost
to destroy US. We must fight on, to
save our beloved fatherland from ut
ter ruin. Stand by to the death"
Thus Is the issue Of victory still more
definitely Joined by Germany's fake
acceptance Of Austria's proposal This
- we'll We have moro to fear from
negotiations with the enemy than from
his guns.

The Presidents Example.

The New Jersey primary election
takes place Tuesday, and the President,
keeping his custom, will 60 home to
vote. It is praiseworthy custom. Pity
it is not general.
Surprise and regret have been ex-
pressed at this years record in that
particular. The primaries everywhere
have been neglected. Pollings have
been light. In some cases nominations
have been made by less than so per
cent of those entitled to express them
selves.
No reason for the neglect has been
advanced. The weather, which some
times serves, has not been saddled with
the responsibility. Nothing more i'm
portant anywhere has been in hand.
Surely, making the best possible nomi-
nations for public Office, and particu-
larly national Office, at this time was
entitled to the cali over everything
else.
But it did not have the call. Every
thing else seemed to have the call
over it.
Nor has this apathy disappeared.
Complaint is heard Of difficulty in wax
ing up the people now that the nomi-
nations have been made. Meetings are
not we'll attended. Enthusiasm is alb
sent.
Indeed, it is stated that one Of the
reasons for the proposed second re-
cess Of Congress is that senators and
representatives may thus be set at lib
erty to scatter to their homes and put
"pep" into the situation. Their lieu
tenants are appealing to them to re-
turn and take charge in person.
The campaign for the liberty loan,
which is soon to begin, may have an
effect on the situation. That, of course,
will have no political bearing. But
when it is over, the interest awakened
may switch to politics and serve In the
campaigns for political places.
It Will be strange-inexplcable, in
deed-f the vote in November is light.
There are issues in abundance. The
times have never been graver. The
next Congress may have to be called
in extra session. This may be re-
quired whether the war continues or
not
Why should not the voters come out

what more would be necessary to move

Indifference at time when so much is
at stake, and the best judgment of the
country at the polls is demanded

The Senate's Task.

The task Of the Senate finance com
mittee Is the more difficult by reason
Of the fact that it is expected to re-
shape what is widely considered mis-
shapen measure. Could it discard the
House bill altogether and draw one Of
its own, it might proceed more rapidly
and with more assurance than is pos
sible under existing circumstances. But
such a course would be resented by
the House, and add to complications
already sufficiently great.
The appeal to the committee is
strong, and comes from many sources.
The business world does not like the
House bill The political world is di-
vided on it. Some Of the strongest
criticisms have been uttered in the
House itself. The bill was reported
from the ways and means committee
by unanimous vote, but only for the
purpose Of opening debate. When de-
bate began, unanimity disappeared;
and as debate proceeded divisions as
to details were pronounced.
A striking feature Of the situation
was the appearance Thursday Of Mr..
Fordney Of the ways and means COM
mittee before the finance committee
asking q change in the House measure.
He had helped prepare the measure,
and had joined in reporting it to the
House, and had participated in both
the committee and the House debates.
But as he considered the change he de-
sired necessary, he did not hesitate to
appeal from the body of which he is
member to the other body.
How much time the finance commit
tee will devote to its task has not been
indicated. Its time is limited. The
second regular session Of this Con-
gress is only a little over two months
away. So that if the bill is to be revised
and passed by the Senate at this ses-
sion, the time devoted to the bill by
the ways and means committee cannot
be duplicated.
The Senate has every inspiration to
perform its work well. The defcien-
cies Of the Houses work are confessed
by a large membership Of the House
itself. Business men are hoping for
number Of changes, and will remain
nervous and perple1ed until the mat
ter is settled. The government needs
the revenue for support of the war.
So that as the Senate, in the role of
George" must "do it." nothing should
be neglected in tile effort to give the
country the benefit of a sound and
equitable piece Of legislation.
