| Sixty-one men, the largest number to
go from Latah county at one time this
year, left here this afternoon for Camp
| Fremont, Cal, to join the new national
army. The men left on the O.-W. R. &
N, going by special train to Colfax The
motor car which runs on this branch was
not large enough to carry the men and
the regular passengers, SO a steam train
was pressed into the service.
One of the largest crowds seen here
in months was present to bid the men
good bye. Early this morning the town
began to fill with automobiles, and be-
fore noon it was difficult to get along on
some of the streets. The men met at
the court house where they were given
their instructions and transportation and
leader selected They we're then in
structed to report at 1890 to march to
the train A large crowd followed the
men to the depot and bid them farewell.
There was no speech-making and no
band Moscow's band being without a
leader since Professor Carey and most
of his men joined the colors, music was
dispensed with Headed by the Ameri-
can flag the men took their first lesson
in marching from the Hotel Moscow to
the OW. R. & NJ station.
They will leave Colfax' tonight and
reach their destination in California
some time Wednesday. Many of the
men who left today are from the rural
precincts, being farmer boys who had
been given deferred classification on ac-
count of agriculture, but were placed in
class recently by order of Provost
Marshal General Crowder
Four Latah county men failed to ap-
pear and were not located They prob
ably did not receive the notices. Four
others have been transferred to other
places and go from those today. Three
young men of the 1918 class (the last
three named) volunteered and went to-
day, and four from other counties who
had been transferred to Latah county left
with the Latah county contingent today.
Following is the list of those who left |
today:
c. B. Dial, Garfield, Wash.
L. L. Woody, Juliaetta, Idaho.
E. W. Matson, Potlatch, Idaho.
c. H. Neff. Moscow, Idaho

filed fort democratic nomination for
prosecuting attorney Frank L. Moore
had filed for this nomination but as he
has also filed for United States senator
and cannot be a candidate for both
places, he will withdraw from the local
race Robert Hall, of Juliaetta, filed for
the democratic nomination for county
commissioner in the third district. This
gives three democratic nominations for
county commissioner, one in each dis
trict In no case have two democrats
filed for any office except in the case
of sheriff. A. w. Longfellow has filed
against Jasper J. Campbell, the incum-
bent for that office.
The republicans have one candidate
for every office in the county and two
for several of the positions There are
two republican candidates for commits
sioner in this district, and two for state
senator and two for sheriff and two for
probate Judge Three women are cam
didates for the republican nomination
for county treasurer.
The democrats filed no candidates for
the legislature. Two socialists and two
republicans filed for the four legislative
positions as democrats, under the dlrec-
ton of F. p Water, of Kettle Falls,
Wash, nonpartizan league organizer.

when the figures are made public they
will thrill the allied world. General Per-
shing in his communication says the Am
orleans alone have taken 8,4OO prisoners,
and in addition 1873 guns
After hard fighting the Americans and
French have succeeded in taking Fismes,
once Germany's great ammunition and
supply depot, midway on the railway be-
tween Soissons and Rheims, while to
the east at number of places along the
Vesle river the French have crossed he
stream, driving the enemy northeast
ward East of Soissons allied troops
nave negotiated the passage Of the Aisne
and are in position to harass the enemy
as he endeavors to straighten cut mis-
line in conformity with that running
northwestward.
So fast has been their retreat in the
center that some elements of their forces
have succeeded in reaching the northern
bank of the Aisne and getting numbers
of their big guns across with them. All
through the salient towns are still ablaze
behind the retreating Germans, and even
cornfields have been set afire in. order
to prevent the allied troops from garner
ing the ripened crop.
With the Vesle at freshet and the
Germans unable to ford it, they stood
with their backs to it and gave battle
for their lives. Most of them were kill
ed and the remainder made prisoner
One of the most important maneuvers
north of the Vesle was the penetration
by the French to the village of La Nett
villette, which releases the German hold
on the northern outskirts of Rheims and
seemingly delivers the cathedral city
from the German menace.
With the Germans now thoroughly
vanquished thus far on the So1ssons-
Rheims salient eyes are being turned to
the regions in the northwest on both
sides of Amiens. Here the French and
British are keeping up their hard pres
sure against the armies of Crown Prince
Rupprecht of Bavaria and have forced
them on two highly important sectors to
retreat.
Southeast of Amiens on the old Mont
didier sector the Germans have fallen
back across the Avre river over wide
front. while northeast of Amiens, III the
region of Albert. similar retrograde
has been made across the
Ancre. The German official commune
cation in admitting the withdrawal near
Albert declares the maneuver was car
ried out without interference by the
British.
There again has been considerable ac-
tivity on the Italian mountain front,
where at several points the Italians have
and defeated the Austrians.

GENERAL MARCH SAYS MOTH
ING is BEING WITHHELD
FROM AMERICAN PEOPLE

WASHINGTON.- = Senators of the
military committee today who asked Gen.
eral March, chief of the military staff,
if he had any estimate of the American
casualties in the recent fighting were
told that the government had absolutely
none.
General March told the senators and
also the Washington correspondents in
response to questions substantially what
Secretary Baker said in his statement
last night: that General Pershing was
under difficulties of gathering the names
from many hospitals, some of them
French and British over wide area,
and that it had as yet been physically
impossible to gather the hist
The official transcript of General
March's talk with the correspondents
contains this question and answer
'Have you any estimate as to the num-
Der of casualties?
None whatever"
One of the senator's asked what the
extent of casualties already resported to
the war department was and General
March replied that it was between 1900
and 14.0OO. This is the sum total of all
casualties announced to date by the war
department as given in the departments
weekly published summary.
This statement was made the vehicle
of sensational reports sent out from
Washington to the effect that General
Pershing had reported to General March
that he estimated at 1900 the American
casualties in the recent fighting.
Senators who attended the conference
and war department officials generally
denounced the published report as mis-
leading in every way. 1t was reiterated
officially and stated specifically by Cen
era1 March that General Pershing had
made no estimate.
Later General March formally denied
that he had given any figures or esti-
mate to any one as to the number OF
casualties in the present fighting, and
he asked newspaper correspondents to
deny the sensational reports sent out
from Washington today that he had
placed the casualties in the Aisne- Marne
battle at 1900.

CALLS FOR WORK AND MEN

The United States Employment office
is a busy place these days. The short
time of its existence has proven its
value. Cooperating with the farm bu-
reau it has furnished the farmers with
approximately two hundred and fifty
men (25O) besides sending quite num-
Der to other industries in the county.
This morning it received calls for one
binder driver, four pitchers, six sack
sewers, one man cook, eight railroad
workers, and any number of lumbermen.
