HOW PALOUSE CITY
HANDLES SLACkERS
NEIGHBORING TOWN PUBLISHES
NAMES OF NON-BOND BUYERS
AS PRO-GERMANS

Palouse will ego over the top" il
the fourth Liberty loan drive today
This is the statement made by j. P
Duke, cashier of the Security State
bank of that place, who was in Mos
COW last night. Mr.. Duke said:
eve lack but a few thousand dol
lars of having our quota raised and
the bank subscriptions have not yet
been reported. All we have to do is
to put in our subscriptions and we
are over the top. But there are a
few VINO have not subscribed and have
promised to subscribe today and these
will more than make up our quota
and then the banks will turn over
their subscriptions and we will be far
over our quota"
Mr.. Duke tells an interesting story
of how Palouse handled the third and
fourth loan drives. They have splen-
did organization and all are workers.
In each precinct there is captain
with two or more assistants. These
are always loyal, enterprising and
wide-awake men. They are on honor
to get their subscriptions in first and
then to go after the others in their
precincts. Being farmers Gin the rural
districts) they have no business in
terests that will suffer by offending
a neighbor and the man who refuses
to buy or is negligent or slow, gets
no soft words. He is denounced as a
Stacker or "pro- German" if he does
not take his quota He is told that
"every one but you in this precinct
has done his duty. Now you do yours
or get out. This is no place for a
Stacker to live AS result every
precinct is coming through 100 per
cent
But, as was done in the third loan
drive, if there are some who fail to
subscribe or take less than their quota
their names are published in the local
newspaper as "slackers,' under the
caption: "These are slackers, Pro-
Germans and Hun Sympathizers."
Few men can stand such publicity AMI
Palouse has won an enviable record
for getting its quotas in the shortest
time
eff man in our section is assessed
for certain amount he must take
that amount. Taking part of it does
not take him out the Stacker and pro
German list said Mr.. Duke. We dc
100 per cent American OF he is
SldCk0T. utIc 10 IlO way P'dNS
between these two"
Mr.. Duke says that some errors
lave been made in the Latah county
assessments in districts tributary to
Palouse. He cited severa! instances.
One is a 17-year-old boy, working for
wages, who was assessed $3.50. An
other is man with 80 acres of tim
ber land, about one-third of which is
in cultivation, who has quite a large
family and hard time to make
living, being assessed 5000 while
near neighbor, worth 100000, and a
money maker, was assessed but $400.
The Latah county citizens who bank
At Palouse buy bonds through the Pa
ouse banks and efforts are being
made to straighten out these errors
and make a more just and equitable
assessment where errors are appar-
.ent.

The heavy rain today kept many
country people from coming OF town

 BISBEE DEPORTATION

Continued from Page One) the state attempted to cripple copper production. Urged by alien mischief makers the Austrian and Mexican min- CTS struck without authority of their union and began a campaign of in limitation and voilence. The copper output, desperately needed by the United States government, was tied up.

 Sheriff Harry Wheeler, now a cap tain in the American army in France called the strikes reasonable and said 1t was an attempt to embarass the gov ernment. He called all loyal Ameri- cans to aid him in peaceably arresting the disturbers. He hired a train, stocked it with food and water and sent about 1900 of the men to the nearest army post, Columbus, N. M.

 Men Kept Out of State
 No steps were taken by the federal authorities to return these men to Bis- bee. the general feeling being that there could be no temporizing with a movement that aimed to keep the gov ernment from getting the copper it needed.

AMERICAN TROOPS DELIVER ATTACK.
 TAKE PRISONERS
[Rep Lblican A. p. Leased Wlre1

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, May 2S.-The American troops on the French front near Montdidier delivered an attack against the German positions. fought their way through all objectiYes, including the village of Cantigny, and captured l40 prisoners.
 The American attack was along a two kilometer front and it was said to have taken the hard hitting Americans just about three quarters Of an hour to complete their conques, which included that amount of terri tory, as we'll as the village of Canti gny-an exceptionally short time for such an operation.
 Americans do Brilliant Work
 This remarkably fine showing comes as fitting companion piece to the brilliant work done by the United States soldiers in repulsing an enemy assault made against them in the same region yesterday morn ing. One American division was at lacked at that time and the gra! coats met with complete reversa at all points.
 This enemy attack was not heavy one, however. and was easily deal with by the Americans, who had the situation well in hand at all times.
 Germans Crowd New Lines
 Word of these two victories have added much to the very favorable impression which the American troop already have created along the Brit ish front. It was a foregone con clusion that the Germans would make the newest of the allies along this front the object of an attack, in ar attempt to push them back and there by create a feeling that they had formed a weak line in the defendins chain.
 The general opinion of the way 1T which these American troops have handled themselves in the last two days seems to be summed up in 2 comment made to the correspondent this afternoon by q French liaisor officer.
 "Magnificent." he exclaimed witf delight. That is the sort of stuff ! we will give the boche."

GERMANS USING 25
 DIVISIONS IN NEW
 ATTACK NEAR RE|MS

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE, May 2S.-Noon. By the As sociated Press)-At least 25 German divisions today joined in the attack and forced further back the French and British divisions holding the line. Tanks, machine guns and poison gas shells were the principal factors in the successful advance, aside from the numerically superior forces of the Germans.
 Notwithstanding the smallness of the allied armies, they did their utmost to stay the immense push of the enemy troops, 10 times their number The German advance. which was one of the most rapid since the beginning of the war. could not be held, however, as wave after wave in dense lines came forward.
 Flank Holding We'll
 The western allied flank has main tained it's position well, and reserves are hurrying toward the danger point of the greatest advance.
 The retreat of the French and Brit ish was made in orderly fashion, the troops destroying their material as they left or taking it along with them

 WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE, May 21.--As was foreseen. the entente allied troops were com nelled to cede ground in the Cham pagne before the massed German at tack. but they retired in. perfect order The Germans. executing a repetition of their tactics of March 21, threw overwhelming forces which they had brought forward during the night on lo the lightly held position extending from the westward end of the Chemin dcs Danes to Courcy, near Brimont.
 At least % selected German divisions participated in the onslaught. Amore them were two guard divisions.
 Poisoned Gas for Hours
 The attack was preceded by the most intense bombardment of poison gas shells, lasting for several hours. The entire allied line was thinly held by a division of British and French troops. Meantime, other German divisions attacked from the Ailette valley and the small bodies of allied troops hold ing the knifelike ridge decided to fall back in order to avoid useless losses In trying to keep an untenable position in the face of greatly superior num- bers.
 Troops Retire Fighting
 Everything had been prepared for such a movement in case of necessity and the troops retired fighting foot by foot until joined by their reserves far ther back, the local reserves covering tho retirement of their comrades be- fore the German masses.
 As the troops fell back with virtu- ally all of their guns and material, thev took up positions already pre- pared, where they awaited the arrival of endorsements, which were rapidly coming.
 Very strong enemy columns, about { o'clock in the morning came through tho plain to the east of Craonne and around Juvincourt, and the allied troops, after the overwhelming nature of the enemy's forces was perceived carried out the order to retire across the Aisne to their principal defensive positions.
 Creton fell. leaving the remainder of the Chemin des Danes open to a flank attack.
