mad little chance. However, there are several
spirited local fights which have served some
what to keep up the general interest. The
primary is less than week away, and it
is the duty Of every voter to 60 to the polls
and cast his ballot. In no other way can

The morale of the allies is not to be

The morale Of the allies is not TO be shaken
not even by long-range guns that throw a
projectile seventy-five miles upon noncom-
blatant populations. When their own ap-
palling losses in the present big offensive are
made known to the German people, the wall
that is sure 10 follow will put the Kaiser
and his military autocrats to their wits end
TO sustain the morale Of their own forces.
The effect Of this offensive has only served
10 make the allied populations more deter
mined to withhold no sacrifices that may be
necessary to win the war.
