Early returns indicate that Lenroot

Davies vote came in later and the Ber-
ger vote was much larger than had
been anticipated by those who had
been closely watching the situation.
In Milwaukee much money changed
hands as wagers that Berger would
not have $4,000 had plenty of takers.
Berger had heavy vote in lake
shore counties. Some of the counties
which went strongly for Thompson in
the primary on March 10 that are now
in the Berger coltnnn are Manitowoc,
Sheboygan, Washington and Dodge.

Publieity in strongly advocated I'm
III No entered this war, publicity had
always prevailed in this country, even
in times Of var. II WAC the accepted
and applied principle that the people
the source Of governmental power-were
entitled TO know about the use Of power
BY their agents.
Because of the size of this war, and
Of alliances the nation had not hither-
to made, different policy was adopted
when we entered the hostilities. Silence
was enjoined, and was observed. A press
censorship was established. Senators
and representatives became very guard
ed IN their public uttcrances. The
President and his cabinet took few into
their confidence.
Tho result was far from happy. The
forcs of public opinion was not felt,
because public opinion could not be
formed. Too little upon which to form
It was permitted circulation.
Last winter came q revolt The value
of publicity came to be recognized
Congress found its voice. The press en-
larged its war service. The President
and his cabinet began consultations with
Congress. Some very frank disclosures
were made, and some radical reforms
advocated
Since then public opinion has in a
measure come into play. 1t has had
something to go upon. But it should
have more; and with more to go upon it
would become stronger.
In this way publicity has been JUS
titled. Instead of becoming discour-
aged by that portion of the record which
was disappointing, the people have
advocated reforms. They have asked for
more vigorous and improved action. In
no way, in no representative quarter,
has a note of encouragement been
sounded.
In both England and France the start
was made with silence It was decreed
that little should be said in either leg
islstive assembly or press about the con-
duct of the war. But both countries
soon saw the peril of such a course, and
took a new course. Publicity by both
tongue and pen came into use, and a
great many reforms followed. The best
work either country has done since the
war began dates from that change of
policy

The Postmen's Thrift Stamp Driv,

The Postmen's Thrift Stamp Drive.
This is a good week to buy war thrift
sknps and savings certificates, and the
pos$men are the best people to buy them
nom. For the postmen of Washington
are engaged IN Gdrive~ for tho sale of
these stamps and certificates, in COM
petition for the highest records. Those
who sell tho greatest number of stamps
during the week will receive rewards,
contributed by business men of Wash
ington- The Star hopes that everybody
who Is thinking of buying stamps-and
everybody should not only be thinking
,cf u, but actually doing twill consider
the postmen as their agencies of supply.
Washngten's quota of thrift stamp pur-
chases is not up to the mark, and this
:is good means of bringing it up. Start
a card today, if you have not already
started one. Start another, if you have
one now working. Buy two stamps where
.you bought one. Every penny you spend
for thrift stamps goes into the govern
nent's war chest, for the maintenance OF
the Amy and the Navy and the prosecu.
tian of the fight against Germany And
every certificate is a good investment
Patriotism and thrift combine to urge
purchase, and the postmen are the most
available and the most deserving agency
for gstting the stamps. Help Uncle Sam
and the postmen together by buying
nov.

to the handling of war matters in an

Congress have much more light on the
general situation than formerly. They
can go forward now with greater con-
fidence-be surer of themselves in what
they do.
It is needless to say there is much to
be done. Speeding up is necessary an

There is a country far away,
Whose skies are ever blue.
And man forsakes it oft, they say,
And finds it oft anew.
It's perfumed breeze signs but to please,
And care is left behind
By those who reach that place of ease,
The Land Of Nevermind.
Its name was Eden, long ago,
The spot serenely fair
Where time swept by with tranquil flow.
And mortals knew no care.
But weeds soon grew and folly drew
Her letters rose entwined.
Man was thrust forth to seek anew
The Land Of Nevermind.
He finds it in city's crowd
Where splendid treasures CLEAN,
Or 'mongst the warrior hymns % prsod
That soothe a tyrants dream;
But Incidence and bland pretense
Deplete the languorous mind,
And humbled man still wanders themes
In search Of sNeyermind.n

The Line Holds.

Germany's powerful thrust has been
stopped, according to today's dispatches.
The tremendous effort has carried the
Hun lines back across the ground yield
ed nearly two years ago in the Somme
battle and the subsequent Hindenburg
retreat, and now the allies have stiffen-
ed their resistance and are standing
firmly, repelling the assaults that are
being still flung upon them.
just how costly this effort has been
for the Germans is not, of course, known.
Nor is it known how many British
troops have been sacrificed in the re-
treat and final resistance. Judging from
the manner of the assault, in mass for
nation according to the German tradi-
ton of warfare, and the desperate. stub
bornness Of the defense, which reckon
ed upon the holding Of frontal positions
as long as possible in order to infiict
punishment upon the advancing foe, the
ASSISTANTS have suffered much more Sc
verefy than the British.
It was stated before the offensive be-
gan that the German high command was
prepared to lose 800 600 men in order
to break the line. If the line had been
broken such . loss would have been a
small price to pay. The result would
have been a German victory. But if the
line has held the enormous losses of the
enemy make of the supreme effort,
fruitless save for the recovery of ground
of no military value and to the British
themselves of no sentimental value, a
severe defeat.
Germany cannot afford now to lose
men in great numbers, unless to gain
definite objectivss and points of strate-
gic advantage. Time is running against
her. The entente, whatever the losses
that may have been suffered in this
battle, are growing stronger. The rapid
reinforcement Of the man power of the
entente through the arrival Of conveys
of ships laden with American troops
turns the balance in favor of Germany's
enemies
Hints are given in the dispatches of
q counter blow soon to fall upon the
depleted German lines. The French, not
seriously harmed by the offensive, are
in position to strike with telling force
on what has now become, by virtue of
the salient driven by the Hindenburg
thrust, a veritable flank. If the Ger
man forces are spent by their gigantic
effort, having advanced far from their
bases of supply, they may be given a
blow that will send them back over the
ground that has been drenched with
their blood. But even if they are not
driven back, their retention of the
ground seized, at loss which cannot
be replaced, will leave the second bat
tie of the Somme by no means a Teu-
ton victory in fact, hswever It may be
proclaimed by the high command to the
suffering people of Germany.
