other than those in cities of the
first and second classes. That this
should be done seems to be the leg
islative intention, for the provision
for challenge respecting party affili-
ations is substantially repeated in
section six of the act of July 25,
1913, p. L. 1046, but districts in cities
of the first, second and third classes
are excepted therefrom.
The reason for the exception is
apparent. The enrolment in dis
tricts in cities under party affilia-
tions is made personally by the cleo
tor under oath and continues unless
changed at the spring enrolment.
until the next fall enrolment, while
in the other districts of the state it
may be made by the registration as
SCISSOR upon inquiry of the elector
or by the elector through an ap-
propriate certificate and when made
continues from year to year until the
elector himself changes it. In the
latter districts there is no ,oppor-
tunity given at the time of enroll
'ment, but in the cities the oppor-
tunity then to challenge is express
ly given.
There is, therefore, not the same
reason or necessity for challenge at
the primaries in the cities as there
is in the other Districts of the state.
ut follows that if an elector by vir-
tue of his enrolment at the fall en-
rollment as a member of a political
party thereby secures the right to
vote for its candidates at the pri-
maries, he has the right also to take
part in placing the names of the
candidates on the party primary ball
lot We are of the opinion that the
nomination petition is valid"

MEN ALONE TO
DECIDE BATTLE
ON WEST FRONT
General Radcliffe Says Vic
tory Depends on Reserves;
Enemy on KENNEL Hill

London, April 27.-"In the end, It
will be a question of who has the
last reserves" said General Delma
Radcliffe, chief director of military
operations at the War Office, in a
review of the western front situation
yesterday afternoon.
These reserves on the western
front are now in the hands OF Gen
eral Foch. in whom both armies have
the fullest confidence. He so far
has employed only small proportion
of his available reserves, and this is
a great auguryl for the future.
I'm this long-drawn-o test of
endurance of the nations, it is i'm
perative to get every man possible
to support the battlefront, for men
alone will tell in the end"
The Germans, in their attack on
the northern battlefront, have occu-
pied KENNEL Hill, General Radcliffe
stated.
General Radcliffe declared it was
perfectly possible for the Allies to
hold the Ypres sector, even with the
Germans on KENNEL Hill, but that
ii was not convenient to have them
there and it was hoped to eject
them.
At KENNEL Hill. continued the
general. the Germans gained 1000
yards on a front of about 1900
yards, including the important tao
tical feature of the hill itself, which
gives important observation over all
the ground to the north.
THE net result in the KENNEL sec
tor so far is that the Germans have
gained about 1000 yards on a front
of about 1900 yards" says General
Radcliffe. This gain is not large,
but it involves very important
ground, and there is no question that
il is a very serious one.
There is nothing decisive about
the loss of KENNEL Hill, but it Is
one of the most important tactical
features, as the hill is an observation
point for all the ground to the
north. 1t still remains to be seen,
however, whether it will remain in
the enemy's hands.
"Our line to the north is all right.
and it is entirely possible to hold
on to the Ypres sector, even IL the
enemy is on KENNEL. But his pres
ence there is not convenient, and we
hope to get him Off"

Saloon Is Only Friend of
BreWer, Says Lecturer Be-
fore Great Antib0oze Rally
in Technical High School

Issues are more important than
parties. Forget politics on election

message brought by Prof. j. II.
Dickson, of Wooster, Ohio. to the
big patriotic rally held under the

las might. In eloquent words he de-
piicted the evils of the rum traffic
ad pleaded for cooperation of vot-
ters in the death struggle with the
monster"
Prof. Dickson opened his address
with a pretty little allegorical vi
sion, telling of the conversation he
would have with his grandson in
1850. THE word saloon will be
obsolete.
The saloon is responsible for
5000 suicides each year; it leads
10000 criminals to their death each
year.; ruins $4,000 girls; brings 65,-
600 to $4,000 men and women to
drunkards' graves, and starts 100, 900
boys and men and women on the
downward path: all this in the
course of a single year!
Worse Than Huns
Pennsylvania brewers brewed
beer more than entire Germany last
year. Big business is against the
rum traffic; the only big business

For the monley spent every year
for liquor, we could build one hun

Ford automobile and 500 for carbu-
rotor trouble and gasoline. The
money spent each year for liquor
would buy almost the entire Liberty
