ENEMY'S RESISTANCE
BECOMING DESPERATE

Zurich, Switzerland, May 30.--
Newspapers in southern Germany
publish the following note from the
German headquarters:
THE population should not expect
our advance to continue at the same
rate as on the first day, The resist
ance of the enemy is becoming des-
perate and violent counter attacks
are to be expected. The transport
of artillery and munitions is also
meeting with some difficulty"
Speaking of losses, the note adds
that to estimate them correctly the
people should not forget the gravity
or importance of the struggle.
The socialists have given notice
that they intend to interrepelliate
the reichstag naval committee why,
during last month, 100000 enemy
troops embarked for France without
the slightest, apparent attention from
submarines according to a Munich
dispatch.

Paris, via Ottowa, May 30-The
IIavas correspondent at the French
front under yesterdays date tele-
graphs that the position at present
as compafed with March is more
advantageous to the allies In March
the indispensibility of unity of ac-
ton had been realized in the midst
of a battle which was the most dan
gcrous menace yet endured. Roads
were blocked, hampering the arrival

Today, he points out, the Anglo
French forces. submerged by assail
ants six or seven times their num-
her, have given ground but in per-
feet order and with methodical slow
ness, and without losing contact for
moment There never were gaps
between the British and French, like
those of March when the gaps ab-
sorbed all the first reinforcements
to arrive. Today the masses of re-
serves are arriving over open Dads
and ,aleady are in action.
There is a perfect cOmradeship
of arms between the French and
British At Fismes a British cyclist
battalion spontaneously helped the
French defending the village. Al

had already suffered heavily, carried
away gy the gallantry of French

tacks against four German divisions,

SAVING NOW MEANS SERVING
YOUR COUNTRY.

BY economizing In consumption and
with the resultant saving purchasing
the governments war securities the
American citizen performs double
duty. The citizen and the government
can not use the same labor and ma
terial; II the citizen uses 1t. the ma
terial and the labor can not be used
by the government. II the citizen
economies in consumption. SO much
material and labor and transportation
space is left free for government uses.
And when the saving effected is lent
to the government more money is thus
placed at the disposal of the govern
ment.
The more the people save the more
money, labor, and materials are left
for the winning of the war, the greater
and more complete the support given
to our fighting men.

LET'S HAVE A WAR CHEST BE-
FORE THE NEXT DRIVE.

Has the plan to create a war chest
in Shoshone county been abandoned?
Soon another drive will be upon us
to raise funds for the Y. M. C. A. and
probably for the X. C. The men who
have collected these funds In the past
are practically unanimous in favor of
the war chest, not particularly to re-
lieye them from the work, but because
the war chest means The adoption OF
business system and will equalize the
burden and force every citizen to bear
his share OF the expense Of war; I'm
der the present system this county in
variably pays more than its quota,
while with the war chest we would
simply pay our allotment and no more,
because the money would be on hand
and 1t would be merely matter Of
dra wing a cfNck for the amount. So
far as we are informed the only Op-
position to the war chest comes from
the state council Of defense, but we
do not understand that that body has
any binding authority over the mat
ter. We know that other counties in
the state are adopting the system and
since 1t appears to be the desire OF
the people of this county, we see nc
reason why we should defer to the
wishes of the state council. Let us
have the war chest in time for the
next drive.

RoSsI RETURNS.
Stops in Cleveland for Conference With
Grasselli Company.

Herman J. Rossi returned from the
east Tuesday, where he went about a
week ago as the guest of the Aetna
company, having earned this distinc-
ton through the fact that his COM
.pany, the Rossi Insurance and Invest
ment company, had been successful in
business getting contest last year,
the Rossi agency ranking sixth, a re-
markable record considering the many
populous districts in competition. The
meeting of the successful agents was
at the home office of the company in
Hartford, Conn. The pleasure of the
trip was greatly marred by the in
tense heat. Returning Mr.. Rossi
stopped at Washington, and thence to
Cleveland, where he conferred with the
Grasseli Chemical company regarding
the Success ore contract, Mr.. Ross
being one of the directors of the Sue
cess company. Mr. Rossi stated that
he would not discuss this conference
at least until he had made his report
to his associate directors.

JACK WAITE.
Company Preparing to Handle Ore by
Motor Truck.

After hauling one carload OF ore
from the mine to the railroad at the
mouth of Beaver creek, a distance OF
about fifteen miles, the Jack waite
Mining company has found that the
expense is too great and that quicker
means of transportation must be pro-
yided. The company has therefore
decided to put motor truck on the
road that will carry five tons at load
and make three trips in twenty-four
hours, the intention being to keep the
truck running day and night The
wagon road to the mine is now being
widened and otherwise placed in con-
dition to accommodate the truck.
The company is still hoping that the
o. w. r. & N. company will put in the
bridge across the North Fork and ex-
tend the track at least to Prichard,
which would reduce the haul by about
three miles. Indication that the com
pany will do this is found in the fact
that two carloads of material are now
at the site of the bridge and two men
are reported working there, apparently
preparing for construction. The pile
drive is at the mouth Of Beaver.

is not INDUCING in a speech making

ones. and will trust to his public and
private records since his arrival in
