ATTY. c. ". OSENTON COMES OUT FOR
MR.. Chill TON IN SENATORIAL RACE
ayee County egast and Member of State Committee Comes
Out For Kanawha Man-Gyes Reasons For
His Support.

Charles w. Osenton, prominent at
torney and state Committeeman from
Fayette county, while in Charleston
yesterday came out openly for the
nomination of former United S1a.es
Senator William e. Chiffon as the
candidate of the Democratic party.
He gave many reasons why he thinks
Senator Chiffon should be nominated.
Mr.. Osenton said:
q do want to say to the people
that they should be upon their guard
for misrepresentation during the
coming campaign for the Democratic
nomination for United States senator
say this because | have received let.
tiers from friends in different parts
OF the state saying that it had been
represented to them that Lam against
the candidacy of Senator ChiEon.
have heard in my section, of men in
the northern part of the state, being
against him and upon investigation |
find that the report is untrue. ] am
supporting Senator. Chiffon actively
and lave every confidence that he
will be nominated. The people of my
county are as nearly solid for him as
| ever saw them for a candidate who
does not live in the county. Permit
me to say, while on the subject, that
| hope the Democrats will keep their
heads, remain perfectly cool, and let
the people at the polls make nomi-
nation with as little friction as pos
sible. There is not a doubt that the
people want 10 support Wilson this
fall and by that mean they want to
support him for what he did before
the war was declared, and they want
to uphold his principles in readjust-
ments after the war, and then they
wan to support him unreservedly and
freely in winning the war If you
will nominate candidate who comes
up to all of these requirements he
will be elected

 JULIA WARD HOWE.
EXIT AUSTRIA.

One by one the allies of Germany have deserted her. First Bulgaria, then Turkey. and now Austria Hun gary, the most powerful of them all. The terms of the armistice which went into effect yesterday eliminate the dual monarchy from the war and make that country powerless to renew hostilities. We should not, however, permit ourselves to believe that the conflict is over. Peace will not be concluded until Germany, the arch conspirator that brought the terrible curse of war on civilization, is made even more helpless than her allies But at the same time we have cause for genuine exultation that, through the combined efforts of our military leaders and the unparalleled diplo- matic victory scored by President Will son. Germany has been isolated from her yassels and stands alone with de- feat staring her In the face.
 From the bottom of our hearts we thank the brave men of our armies and those of our -belligercnts who have made possible the great events of this week, and we are also ever lastingly grateful for the guidance and leadership of our peerless Presi- dent who has conducted us safely and successfully through the most trying period Of our history. God bless our soldiers and God bless their commander-in-c chief!

Newspaper Man Leads Battalion
 Through Enemy Barragc

With the American Army North west of Verdun Nov. 5, (By the As sociated Press. Although only a few months in the army and never in action until the present offensive, Second Lieutenant Dustin Lucier, former Boston newspap per man, found himself confronted suddenly with the necessity of leading his entire bat talton through a barrage. This incl dent occurred when the Americans advanced from Sommerance to Ime- court
 The major of the battalion to which Lieutenant Lucier's company was at tached was absent because the bat talion was in reserve when the fighting began and the call for it's assistance suddenly arrived when the German barrage fire opened. The young officer led his mon straight through the bursting shells in victorious dash. He was financial and general reporter on the Boston Herald before entering the army.

THE NEW ITALY.

Italy's dream has been realiyed The provinces which have been for so many years under Hapsburg oppres- sion are redeemed, and Indeed by force of arms. Trent and Trieste no longer suffer from the rule of the dual monarchy. The colors of Italy now wave over the public buildings of those towns, and already trainloads of refugees are returning to their homes in the redeemed provinces.
 America textends her felicitations to Italy. That country refused to join with the central powers in the attack OH France in 1914. She also had the courage to break away from her for mer allies and to enter the world war on the side Of democracy when the outlook was anything but pleasant. And now her sons have wrested from the oppressor the stolen cities All honor to our brave belligerent.

HEAD" NO <. :.r OBSTACLE TO YANKEES


 With the American Army North west of Verdun Nov. 5, (By the As sociated Press. .)-Hidden away in almost the exact geometrical center of the Argonne forest far behind the present American lines is a position called by the French at the outset of the war "Donkey6s Head"-which, because of the magnitude of the operations along the wide front, thus far has escaped especial mention.
 According to unofficial dispatches late in 1914, it took the Germans months to capture this veritable for tress from the French. It is one of the glorious, though heretofore un- written, chapters in American military history that the doughboys swept over and past this place in few days, and wrested from the enemy without great difficulty position that might well be considered inVulnerable.

CONVERTING BONDS.
Secretary McAdoo Makes gmportan mt
 Announcement For Investors.

Secretary McAdoo has made the following announcement:
 '"Tho privilege of convertine, four per cent. bonds Of the First Liberty Loan converted and four per cent. bonds of the Second Liberty Loan in 10 a four and quarter per cent. bond expires on November 9. 1918. and cannot under existing law be ex- tended. The treasury has done all in it's power to call the attention of the bondholders to the existence of this valuable privilege and the date Of it's expiration. It is safe to aS- Sume that upon the expiration of the conversion privilege that fact will re- fleet itself unfavorably in the market price of unConVerted four per cent. bonds which have heretofore been maintained substantially on a parity with the converted four and a quar- ter per cent. bonds by the existence of the privilege of conversion. The treasury now asks the newspapers of the United States, bankerrs, brokers and others to do what they can to bring these facts before the attention of the bondholders."
 In view of the foregoing announce ment the local banks will be un- able to accept bonds for conversion after November Sth

Times of this morning appears tn, following comment in the premises
 The neutral nations are begin ming 10 prepare for the peace conference their claims against Germany for ships which IT. boats have destroyed. Reports from ChriStiania say that the Norwegian Government is mak- ing a list of S67 vessels sunk and will ask tho conference to con- slder it's demand that Germany shall replace the tonnage or pay for it, With compensation also for CargoeS and the lives of mur- dered sailors. Neutral claims of this kind will exceed $1,000,000,- 000 for the number of lost ships, if chose of South American coun- tries be included, is nearly 1900, with a capacity Of more than 2.- 100000 tons. Valuable CargOeS went down with a majority of vessels, and about 2,500 men, many of whom were killed on lifoboats or r1fts. In few cases Germany's foes exceed those of the ships were at work for her enemies, but as a rule this excuse cannot be used. Vessels in the servlCe of the Belgian Relief Commission and others carrying gram for Switzerland, 1t will be recalled, were among those tor pcdoed.
 By ceding seven interned ships to Spain to replace as many of the eighty-scven Spanish vessels sunk Germany has admitted her liability. What the peace confer ence will do cannot be foreSeen. The mercantile marine losses of Germanys foes exceed those of the neutrals, and there are not enough German ships to replace this tonnage. But many of these ships are now interned in neutral harbors. Spain has ninety of them. Because so many German mer- chantmon are thus under the control of neutral Governm ents there may be an apportionment of the surrendered tonnage. Germany should be required to pay for ships which she cannot replace. The debt like that which she owes to Belgium, Is one from which there is no escape.
 To which we all say heartily, MEN!

In view of these instructions. disclosed through the note for the first time to the All lies and the United States, the German government says 1t has assumed that similar orders would be issued by it's opponents. Should such directions not be issued, the German govern mont declares 1t reserves the right to renew its aerial attacks on Allied ter ritory behind the lines.
